Good Mourning is the fourth studio album by Alkaline Trio, released May 13, 2003 on Vagrant Records.

Recording[edit]

Recording took place at Cello Studios with producer Joe McGrath, with Jerry Finn co-producing and mixing the proceedings. Christopher Holmes, Jason Gossman and Robert Reed acted as assistant engineeres. Finn and Keith Morris provided additional vocals. Brian Gardner mastered the recordings at Bern Grundman Mastering.[3] The album marks the first appearance of drummer, Derek Grant, described by vocalist/guitarist, Matt Skiba, as 'a whole new influence.'[4] During recording, both Skiba and vocalist/bassist, Dan Andriano were ill.[4] Skiba describes the album as sounding 'bigger, deeper and rawer' than its predecessor, From Here to Infirmary.

In a 2003 interview, Matt Skiba stated that Good Mourning:

is pretty good. I mean it took us a long time to do and I think most of the people that I talk to that make records and stuff, there's always stuff that you wish you did better or maybe a little differently. I've never been able to avoid that, even with this. There's things that I wish I had done maybe a little differently. But that also comes with just listening to it and living with it for so long that until it's done you won't really hear things in that way until it's like too late I guess. But I would say for the most part that I'm really happy with it.[4]

Title[edit]

According to Skiba: 'One morning I was having breakfast down the street from the studio where we were recording and my waiter said 'good morning' to me and it's just kinda like the double meaning/spelling kinda registered and I just called everyone and I was like, 'How about Good Mourning with a U?' and everybody liked it equally as much so we used it.'[4]

Release[edit]

Good Mourning was released through Vagrant on May 12, 2003. The UK version of the album included two bonus tracks: 'Dead End Road' and 'Old School Reasons'.[3] 'We've Had Enough' was released to radio on May 20.[5]

    Released: May 5, 2001

From Here to Infirmary is the third album by Chicago-based punk rock band Alkaline Trio. It was their first album for Vagrant and their only album with the drummer Mike Felumlee, who replaced the previous drummer Glenn Porter. When Felumlee left the band shortly after the album's release, drummer Atom Willard filled in with the group on tour and appeared in the music video for 'Private Eye', before the band found a permanent replacement in Derek Grant.

Production[edit]

Recording took place at Pachyderm Studio in Cannon Falls, Minnesota, with Matt Allison and Alkaline Trioacting as producers, with assistance from Neil Weir. The recordings were mixed by Jerry Finn, with assistance from Laurent Bichara, at Engine Studios in Chicago, Illinois.[3]

Release[edit]

It was released on April 3, 2001, by Vagrant. The UK version of the album, which included 'Standard Break' and 'Hell Yes' as bonus tracks, was co-released by B-Unique and Vagrant.[3] On July 8, a music video for 'Stupid Kid' was posted on the group's website.[4] The band performed on the Plea for Peace/Take Action Tour alongside Thrice, Hot Water Music, and Cave In in August and September.[5] Between late June and mid-August, the group went on the 2002 edition of Warped Tour.[6]

Rolling Stone[2]

Critical reaction to the album was mixed. Ari Wiznitzer of AllMusic called it a slump for the band and 'a definite low point in Alkaline Trio's catalog', criticizing its 'lighter, more mainstream sound' which 'really doesn't complement Matt Skiba and Dan Andriano's foul-mouthed poetry as well as their earlier abrasive sound. Adding to the disappointment is that this is the first Alkaline Trio release to have any filler, as many of the songs seem painfully tossed off (and probably were, as the band has been so prolific).'[8] Matt Hendrickson of Rolling Stone was more praising of the album's qualities, remarking that the band 'deliver[s] catchy punk pop with sharp elbows and a wry sense of humor' and that 'What saves them from the gutter are some effortless hooks and Skiba's hysterical lyrics'.[2]

John Dark of Pitchfork Media remarked, 'There's quite a bit that Alkaline Trio's music is not. It's not challenging, ambitious, or visionary. It's not clever or self-aware. It's not even terribly skillful. But what it is, is tasty. Pure musical junk food: fast, greasy, and crafted for a general palate.'[1] He criticized some of the music as 'a tad too derivative for your average rock snob', but praised the band's lyricism and ability to turn a phrase, though noting that they would occasionally 'jar you back to reality with bonehead moves like spelling out the very, very thinly-disguised metaphor in one song [('Mr. Chainsaw')] for the listener'.[1] Ultimately, though, he concluded, 'for all its flaws, From Here to Infirmary remains nothing more than simply what it is: tuneful, consumable, and guiltily satisfying.'[1]NME listed the album as one of '20 Pop Punk Albums Which Will Make You Nostalgic'.[10]

Commercial performance and legacy[edit]

Shirdi ke sai baba movie 1977 songs download. It was also their first album to chart, reaching #199 on the Billboard 200 and #9 amongst independent albums.[11][12] Its two singles, 'Stupid Kid' and 'Private Eye', both charted on the UK Singles Chart, reaching #53 and #51 respectively.[13] As of 2008, From Here to Infirmary has sold 175,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.[14]

Reflecting on the album in a 2008 interview, the singer and bass guitarist Dan Andriano considered it a turning point for the band musically:

I would have to say From Here to Infirmary definitely started to shape things up with more of a straight up rock kind of sound. I think the previous two albums [(1998's Goddamnit and 2000's Maybe I'll Catch Fire)] are really great, but are a bit meandering. I think [From Here to Infirmary] is when Matt [Skiba] and I both realized that we wanted to tighten the screws a bit, simplify things a little and focus more on punching you in the nuts with our rock; Metaphorically speaking of course.[15]

The song 'Armageddon' was featured on the soundtrack of the video game Tony Hawk's Underground and also appears on the 2002 Vans Warped Tour compilation album.
