4 out of 5 stars Good Album   April 6, 2007

The only main album I don't have is Maybe I'll Catch Fire (which I just ordered) but to me this is one of their weaker releases. I think 'Remains' and 'From Here To Infirmary' are both legendary (can't speak of the aforementioned Catch Fire as I haven't heard it in its entirety).

this album may very well be alkaline's best album ever. goodbye forever is a great opener, this is getting over you is a classic, bleeder is extremely catchy and the rest of the album is just as good. the best songs are cooking wine, my friend peter and 97. but the best song is nose over tail. if you like great harmonies than this is for you... start here if you are new to the trio


5 out of 5 stars My favorite cd of all time.   September 4, 2005

I am usually too lazy to go and write a nice review on the internet about a cd I like, but I love this cd. I have been an Alkaline Trio fan since forever, but it seems that they have lost everything they once were after Goddamnit!. This cd compiles all of their old songs from their early eps and puts it together to form an awesome cd. I defiantly recommend this cd to someone who wants to hear the best of what Alkaline Trio had to offer.


5 out of 5 stars Amazing...   May 22, 2005

This is my favorite Alkaline Trio disc. I didn't fall in love with it immediately...but the more I hear it, the more I like it. The third track, "Bleeder," is actually what turned me on to ALK3. The whole CD is a compilation of older songs, B-sides and whatnot. It isn't as catchy as some other Alkaline Trio albums (i.e. Good Mourning), but that's what makes it wear so well. If you like Alkaline Trio, I highly recommend this CD.


5 out of 5 stars Mix a little of this and a little of that   October 30, 2004

Alkaline trio is one of the grestest bands out on the scene today and unfortunately this is their greatest effort to date even though they have put out very good records since i dont think any will top this one. Mix one part Jawbreaker, one part Morissey and one part misfits and you have the alkaline trio. Heartbreak, bloody murder and drinking basically just like any other 20 something american. Best songs are: "goodbye forever", "getting over you", "97" , "my friend peter", and "bleeder".
