#26: Alkaline Trio - Goddamnit


Haven't done one of these in a while. Discuss.

[zeropunk16]

I got into AK3 around Good Mourning. I just got into Goddammit before the reissue came out. And I'm actually disappointed in myself that I didn't get into it sooner.

[liar23]

trouble breathing is one of my favourite songs

[hockeyguitar99]

This is a great album. I love every single song on it.

[Dr. Acula]

Suprised this made it. Weird. I loved this record in my youth but not much lasting power for me. Give me Maybe I'll Catch Fire.

[Dr. Acula]

Contains some of my favorite Alk3 songs like "Cringe", "Nose Over Tail", "Clavicle", "My Little Needle" and "Trouble Breathing".

Too many forgettable ones like "Message from Kathleen", "Cop", "San Francisco", "As You Were", "Enjoy Your Day" and so on.

"San Francisco" has to be my favorite song off that album.

[versus_god]

This album makes me feel nostalgic and bums the shit out of me when I think about how bad their last couple of releases have been. The fact that hockeyguitar likes it makes me want to suicide myself.

[big mondo]

this album has so much repeat value and no tracks that i skip, which are two big pluses in my book.

kind of disappoints me their last two efforts haven't been so great. my ex and i were talking about the trio last night and goddamnit pretty much consumed most of the conversation

So...how did this make the final list?

[mattybobviously]

I have never listened to Alkaline Trio, nor do I plan to.

[mattybobviously]

It is the time of year for people to go back to school though, I don't feel like as many people have been around lately.

[atticus1492]

I am only here while I am at school.

[a speedo model]

Not my favorite by them, but it's still one of their best. I love the artwork on the reissue.

[Dagless]

I think this is a very good album.

thats your fucking fault

[Until The Bombs]

Have never listened.

[Neo Cassady]

I was never a huge fan of this album until I saw them play the whole thing live. Now it's probably my second favorite of theirs.

[Anthony Lutz]

Seeing the whole thing live was fucking awesome.

[versus_god]

The Occult Roots tour was the best thing ever. I'll never have to see Alkaline Trio again.

[SanePsychotic]

I love Goddamnit. MICF is my current Alk3 record, but Goddamnit has quite a few songs that I can't get enough of.

[TakeLotsWithAlcohol]

I love this album, easily Alk3's best.

There are no bad songs on it and seeing them play it on the Occult Roots tour gave me even more respect for it.

Message From Kathlene is suprisingly my favorite songs from it, followed by Cringe and Trouble Breathing.

One of the best albums ever.

[jbaseball44]

liked it when i was younger but i haven't really listened to it in a long time.

[Pat k]

Goddamnit is the greatest record ever made by the greatest band.

Favorite song is San Francisco, but I think every song is nice. Not listening to this record is a crime for anyone posting on a punk messageboard.

[IWasaCamera]

Guilty.

[IWasaCamera]

Last bump.

[phil19]

to me this is a classic album.
my fav album by my fav band.
quality songs throughout.

[reissgoespunk]

Favourite band. Favourite band. Favourite band. Favourite band. Amazing record. Amazing record. Amazing record. Amazing record.

[EchoPark]

Heard this album being played on the local campus radio statio in '98, picked it up at the local record shop, back when cd's were between 7-8 bucks. Been a fan ever since.

As someone else said,This isn't my favorite Alk3 album but it is better than 95% of the albums released in the past 10 years.

[SanePsychotic]

I personally feel that there should be more than 30 posts in this thread.

[phil19]

I personally feel that there should be more than 30 posts in this thread.

i would agree with you on that

[reissgoespunk]

I personally feel that there should be more than 30 posts in this thread.

Agreed.

[IWasaCamera]

Feel free to initiate some discussion then.

[Dr. Acula]

Where the hell is Chris at in this thread

[versus_god]

I was wondering the same thing.

[AlternateToLife]

Oh this album was so good. Didn't get into it til recently because when it came out I was... 5. But I just find myself loving it.

[saofan_315]

I never listened to Alkaline Trio up until a few months ago. Since then, I've been wondering why in the hell I didn't get into them sooner.

This isn't my favorite ALK3 album, but it's pretty awesome. I love the rawness and energy to it.

[MyWorldEntire]

Never listened to a full album by these guys.

[Genuma]

Goddamnit, this is an awesome album.

[Until The Bombs]

Listening for the first time now. It's not bad. The thirteen year old me would have loved this. Wish I would have known about it then.

[tehdangerdave]

I really love this album. Clavicle, Cop, Cringe, and Southern Rock are some of my favorite Alk3 songs.

[AlternateToLife]

Goddamnit, this is an awesome album.

Ha ha ha.

Feel the same way.
