Maybe I'll Catch Fire

Maybe I'll Catch Fire is the second studio album by the American punk rock band Alkaline Trio, released on March 14, 2000 on Asian Man Records. Produced by Matt Allison, it was the band's final studio album with founding drummer Glenn Porter and their last album with Asian Man Records.

After recording the album, Porter was replaced by former Smoking Popes drummer Mike Felumlee, who made his stage debut in December 1999. The band promoted the album with an appearance on the 2000 Plea for Peace Tour in June and July of that year.

Reception
By August 2008, the album sold 85,000 copies.

Mike DaRonco of Allmusic liked the album, but less than the band's previous effort, 1998's Goddamnit, saying that "Lyrically, Maybe I'll Catch Fire follows in the footsteps of Goddamnit, while staying true to the elaborate but emotional tone of aggressive pop-punk. Not as essential as the Trio's previous efforts, but it would be difficult for any band to follow up an album like Goddamnit".
