March 26, 2014My album rating:
1st place - "The Chronicles of Life and Death" (in my opinion a masterpiece, dark and very climatic)
2nd place - "Cardiology" (fantastic album so much more mature but there is something from the "old" GC in it)
3rd place - "The Young and the Hopeless" (so much memories and so much nostalgia, fantastic album - was even greater in highschool years)
4th place - "Good Morning Revival" (this album is very, very good but something is missing in it, still fantastic though)
5th place - "Good Charlotte" (don't get me wrong I love this one but in the shadow of all other GC albums it is the weakest one)
