Mine

Albums
1.Good Morning
2.Goddammit
3.This Addition

Songs
1.Queen Of Pain
2.This Could Be Love
3.One Hundred Stories
4.Crawl
5.Sadie

I was going to be pretentious and put San Francisco, but it doesn't crack that top 5 for me. I wanted to list what I would "etch in stone," but there's other great stuff like Radio, Private Eye, Draculina, Dethbed (must I go on?)

Okay, YOURS....

First 4.5 records are really great. Crimson is just ok in my book but has some really good songs. Alkaline Trio have great b-sides as well. Favorite album would probably be Good Mourning.

Favorite songs include:

1. Hell Yes
2. Warbrain
3. '97
4. Every Thug Needs A Lady
5. Mercy Me
6. Dead And Broken
7. Jaked On Green Beers
8. Dead End Road
9. One Hundred Stories
10. Radio

Fun fact: We've Had Enough features backing vocals from Keith Morris.

haha

I played the whole discography (proper albums only) yesterday as some of my FB friends had seen.

I'm partial to the Asian Man Records era of stuff so it goes:

1) Goddamnit!
2) Maybe I'll Catch Fire
3) From Here To Infirmary
4) Good Mourning
5) the rest of the albums

I don't think they have any bad albums, but I always go for the early stuff.

thanks for posting that link on Dan rates the ALK3 albums. while no matter how he ranked it, I was intrigued with the topic, but sadden that they hinted on the last album was sort of a break up album. I didn't hear an official announcement that they broke up, but it sounds like it on that article. I'm happy Matt has made a good album with Blink and happy for his success, but I was more of a ALK3 fan. I'm hoping they are just in limbo and leaving it open for a reunion.

FWIW, I took "break up" album as lyrically Matt was writing about the dissolution of his marriage.

"Hey guys, I have a great idea for a song or album title. I Don't Want to Break Up. It's about my marriage, but it references the Descendents. Isn't it super clever?" :D
