Yo-yo, no skip show. It's Sean O'Donnell. We are here to talk about the release of the new Alexisonfire song, “Push the river”. We're here to talk about this song because Alexisonfire is coming back. Yet again. 
After several years, their last album, "The Otherness", dropping in 2022, they are dropping a new album called “Bleed It”. They just dropped the 1st single today on November 12th, called “Push the River”.
And let me tell you something, guys, this song is a banger! It's literally everything you want to hear from Alexisonfire. Dallas, Wade, George, Chris, everyone else brings their whole vocal power to this song, to this ballad. You hear a lot of Dallas Green in this song, and It's just a fantastic Alexisonfire song. 
It's good to have something new from Alexisonfire since their last album in 2022.

But what I really, really, really, really need to talk about is, and I had to Google this for facts, 
Alexisonfire has not played a date in Pittsburgh, PA since May 2010, at Mr. Smalls for the Old Crow's Young Cardinals tour. Now, to me, that's fucking wild. It's 2026 now.
Obviously, Alexisonfire dropped their previous newest album in 2022. And, welp Alexisonfire just announced a tour with Poison the Well. And sadly, my Pittsburgh friends, there is not a Pittsburgh date in sight of this tour. Nothing.
I'm talking Vegas, Hollywood, Chicago, Detroit, Brooklyn, Boston, just like no Pittsburgh though. No Pittsburgh date from Alexisonfire since 20 frickin 10, I think we just have to do something about this.

I don't know if this song review would help in this situation. Obviously, the new song “Push the River” is a fantastic song. But they are not coming anywhere close to the 3 rivers in Pittsburgh. 
They aren't coming close and I want to “push the river”, no pun intended there. I want to “push the river”, and I want Alexisonfire to come to Pittsburgh finally, after almost 17 years. This is a great single to lead off the new album that's looking to be 14 tracks heavy, 14 tracks and heavy as fuck. Obviously, Alexisonfire is going to bring it, we just need a Pittsburgh show from Alexisonfire. 
So, go out there, listen to the new single by Alexisonfire, “push the river”. Also go buy their new album coming out March 19th, 2027, “Bleed It”.
Listen to any new Alexisonfire. And please bring these beautiful Canadian post-hardcore pioneers back to the Steel City! Peace out.
