Music News: drummer Atom Willard has departed pop-punk threesome Alkaline Trio. Willard’s extensive resume includes work with Social Distortion, Against Me!, Rocket From The Crypt, Angels & Airwaves, and The Special Goodness, with Weezer’s Pat Wilson, and he was featured in WASTOIDS’ 2022 four-part podcast series The Special Podness. We’re certain Willard will be in a new band in no time.
