“Goddamnit” reissue launches myspace page, includes Brendan Kelly’s introduction

An official myspace page has been launched for the highly anticipated reissue of Alkaline Trio‘s beloved debut full length, Goddamnit. Originally released in 1998, the album will be reissued in a remixed and remastered format and packaged with a new DVD titled Original Sin: The Story of Goddamnit. It is expected in 2008, ten years after the original release.

The DVD also includes a live performance from the band, and includes liner notes from Brendan Kelly of the Lawrence Arms, Matt Skiba of Alkaline Trio and Mike Park of Asian Man Records. You can read a bit of Brendan’s commentary on the album here. Here’s a taste:

You know that feeling of having wasted your life? I’m not talking about looking back to faded, half-rembmered olden days from some wrinkly shell. I’m referring to waking up and thinking ‘Woah, last night was a complete blur, I made a real dick of myself in front of that girl I can’t stop thinking about and barfed in the sink at the bar. I’m wasting my life. What’s wrong with me?’ That’s wasting your life. Little moments that swirl, fade and descend into obscurity, never to be retrieved.
