I did this for Alkaline Trio back in February, and I found it helpful and enjoyable to re-listen and sort things out in my mind.
Let's look at this chronologically:
Nothing Gold Can Stay (1999) ★★★★★
New Found Glory (2000) ★★★★★
Sticks and Stones (2002) ★★★★★
Catalyst (2004) ★★★★★
Coming Home (2006) ★★★★★
Not Without a Fight (2009) ★★★½
Radiosurgery (2011) ★★★★½
Resurrection (2014) ★★★★½
Makes Me Sick (2017) ★★★★
Forever + Ever x Infinity (2020) ★★★★½
Make the Most of It (2023) ★★★★
Their first five albums were all five stars and they haven't returned to that level since 2006, but honestly 4.5 star albums in 2011, 2014 and 2020 is still great and nothing to complain about. They've experimented with different styles and still managed to be very consistent in quality.
