| 4.5 superb | FamousAtticus | October 26th 20 |
Up there with Crimson, From Here to Infirmary and Goddamnit, Good Mourning sits alongside the best Alkaline Trio albums thus far. Matt & Dan may not see it that way (Matt's voice was giving him major fits during the recording of the record, which he and Dan admitted made him a not so pleasant person to work with). I though Matt's scratchy voice made the record what it is. I can't imagine how different this record would sound if Matt's voice was fine. I'm sure it would have still been a fucking great record but the rawness of what it was really makes it. This was the first record that came out after I got into Alkaline Trio. I can listen to this record anytime, anyplace and never get tired of it. The radio songs (All On Black & We've Had Enough) are actually my least fav on the album but that doesn't mean too much because I still love them very much. Man I wish Jerry Finn was still with us and could get back in the studio with ALK3, I feel he's the missing puzzle piece that would elevate newer releases like "Is This Thing Cursed?" to greater heights (like Good Mourning & Crimson). rMy favorite tracks (in no order): All of them!

Matt's voice on this record has reached new heights of amazing. The band has managed to craft a whole album of legitimately interesting, catchy pop-punk tunes, and inject them with punk rock feeling and their standard angsty imagery. Great record.

After their 2001 album From Here To Infirmary, Alkaline Trio returns with Good Mourning. This album contains 12 darker songs, where the black and red tunes are everywhere. Dealing with death is the main topic here, supported by great vocal duties by Matt Skiba and Dan Andriano. Skiba's voice is raw and powerful, while Andriano's is charming and sweet. This album also includes excellent musicianship. Drummer Derek Grant proves himself as one of the best of the genre. Dan's basslines are creative and catchy, while Matt succedes with his dark guitar riffs. An excellent album.
