Alkaline Trio ~ “Good Mourning” (2003)
On paper, this is an album I should love. And I don’t hate it. If you’ve never heard Alkaline Trio before, they’re kind of like Green Day and Blink 182—but darker and with a little emo going on. Musically, I like this.
But the mastering could have been better. I keep wondering—is there any reason to waste all that dynamic range. It’s not the most compressed album I’ve ever heard but it’s still pretty damn compressed.
I hear the vinyl version is better. It’s probably better to get that instead of this CD.
