Alone in a Crowd is the second album by Catch 22, and the first and only studio album featuring the band's second lineup (featuring Jeff Davidson as lead vocalist, replacing Tomas Kalnoky). It was recorded in June 2000,[2] and released on October 10, 2000.
The album features a song trilogy, "What Goes Around Comes Around," "Bloomfield Avenue," and "Neverending Story," which follows two young lovers who commit multiple acts of homicide on a cross-country spree before finally succumbing to their own personal demons. Themes on the album include a longing for childhood and home, and a general feeling of alienation from the rest of the world.
The end of the album features seven blank tracks, each 22 seconds long, followed by a bonus track that starts after 22 seconds of silence, bringing the album to a total of 22 tracks.
Releaseedit
To promote the album, the band made a music video for "Point the Blame", the album's first single. However, due to financial problems, the video was never completed. The band closed the year touring the US with Reel Big Fish.[3] In March 2001, the band toured across Canada with AFI.[4] In May and June 2001, the band toured Europe as part of the Deconstruction Tour.[5]
On January 30, 2016, Jeff Davidson joined the band to perform the album in full at Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ.
Track listingedit
All tracks are written by Jeff Davidson and Ryan Eldred unless otherwise noted
If you take the seconds of the CD length and subtract the minutes from it, the difference is 22, adding to the other, almost subliminal, 22s found throughout the album.
