Trouble’s self-titled is considered the band’s best work, but I consider it a large step back. To be clear, it’s still one of the best Trad Doom albums of its era, but that’s partly the problem. The Skull and Run to the Light were making bounds and leaps towards true Doom – the depressing, emotional atmosphere, the crushing riffs… They were certainly the closest the 80’s came to true Doom, and they were masterpieces.
Trouble is simply the band falling back into groovy Trad Doom territory. The progress of their last few albums is thrown aside in favor of a more “fun” traditional album. The songwriting is simplified, and there’s more focus on vocal melodies. Lyrics tend to be somber, but the delivery isn’t. In fact, it sounds like the band’s having a great time. Good for them, but I don’t want my Doom to sound like that!
All those gripes aside, I have to reiterate it’s probably the best pure Trad Doom put to record by the turn of the decade. Songs are interesting, varied, and fun. Eric Wagner sounds better than ever, though I prefer his more desperate delivery on earlier releases.

Trouble na rovnomennom albume ponúka kombináciu Melodického Doom/Heavy Metal -u s občasnými prvkami hard Rock -u. kapela počas svojej kariéry jednoznačne potvrdzuje svoju kvalitu a nenahraditeľné miesto na hudobnej scéne. Jedna škoda je, že sú z môjho pohľadu málo docenený.

Trouble's 1990 self-titled release is arguably their most mature album, which is on high technical level. Is well composed, unparalleled songwriting, has a great production and well mixed.
