Their Remains thing that they put out is something I'll recommend to anyone. Great stuff.

Alkaline Trio has the most plays on my last.fm. I got started with Remains and while Goddamnit and Maybe I'll Catch Fire have probably passed it in my mind, some of my favorites are still on Remains. 'Hell Yes', 'Metro', 'Rooftops', and most especially of all 'Old School Reasons' are all excellent tracks and it blows my mind that they were b-sides and such...
