Broken Wing is an EP by American punk rock band Alkaline Trio, released on April 2, 2013 on Epitaph and Heart & Skull. Produced by both Bill Stevenson and Jason Livermore, Broken Wing was recorded during the same sessions that yielded the band's eighth studio album, My Shame Is True, and consists of songs that were written for the album but didn't fit the album's theme of catharsis.[1]
