"We've Had Enough" kicked off Alkaline Trio's Good Mourning in 2003, the Chicago punk band's lead single on Vagrant and the first of their songs to crack an American chart, climbing to 38 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks and to 50 in the UK. Matt Skiba, Dan Andriano and Derek Grant share the writing credit, and they called in a hardcore elder to shout along in the background: Keith Morris, who fronted the Circle Jerks and was Black Flag's first singer.
The video goes full haunted house. The band turn up as ghosts tormenting a family whose radio and TV won't stop playing the song, and it all ends in the basement, where the couple's son, steered by the spirits, takes a pickaxe to the concrete and digs up the murdered musicians' skeletons.
