From here to the infirmary, or good mourning for the best album, but the "alkaline trio" recompilation has by far the best songs, goodbye forever, bleeder, cooking whine, nose over tails, san fransisco, for your lungs only... awesome.
Good Mourning has some of their best lyrics and song writing. I'll say Maybe I'll Catch Fire is my favorite, but Good Mourning is nothing close to their worst. They have no clever lyrics in Agony and Irony, it's too straightforward and blah. And let's face it, if you like old Alkaline Trio, you like it for the lyrics.
i love all their albums, its peoples opinion if they dont like it.
but saying its to "mainstream" what the fuck ? are you saying he should bin all of his ideas because its "main stream" and to many people would like it ?
"i've got some AWSOME new ideas... lets just throw it in the bin and do the same thing again."
I think it is only a disappointment if you listen to it expecting it to be like their old stuff. If you listen to it with an open mind, it is pretty awesome. I wasn't a big fan of it at first either.
well i did listen to it with an open mind, i jus dint like it, i dint mean i EXPECTED them to stay the same lol i jus dint like A&I
BUt at first i was in denial that the album wasnt too good, so I actually (in a way) liked it at first, but over time accepted that the album dint sound too great to me
btw i dont want to sound like a dick by these comments XD
Nah, that's cool. You are definitely entitled to your opinion. I just know a lot of people that hated it just because it was different. At least you tried to like it :D
I kind of agree as much as I dont want to. I am a huge fan and all... believe me. BUT, it was extremely mainstream- something they never should have ventured into.
they're definitely like a full step down, at least, but thats cool with me, they've been on tour for a while, they're bound to be tired, vocally at least. i love when derek is on a guitar, he kinda just does whatever he feels like, and its cool having all three of them singing.
Even though I love his sunglasses, I wish Matt didn't wear them as much. I like his eyes.
