Good Mourning by Alkaline Trio
Good Mourning is an album by Alkaline Trio, released in 2003. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 9 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “We've Had Enough”, on 8 lists with a best position of #35.
Good Mourning, Alkaline Trio's fourth album, came out on Vagrant on May 13, 2003, though the Chicago band had started cutting it at the end of May 2002, too impatient to wait until Warped Tour was over. Jerry Finn and Joe McGrath produced the sessions at Cello Studios, and it was the first record with Derek Grant on drums, whom Matt Skiba called a whole new influence. It wasn't an easy birth: Skiba and Dan Andriano were both sick during recording, and Skiba's strained vocal cords scuttled a planned early-2003 tour with One Man Army and pushed the album back.
Skiba reckoned it came out bigger, deeper and rawer than From Here to Infirmary, and you can hear it. The graveyard pun of a title tells you the gloom hasn't lifted; Finn just buffs the guitars to a black gloss and shoves the choruses up front. "We've Had Enough" snaps along with clenched-teeth urgency while "All On Black" broods, and the record charted high on the Billboard 200.
