I really like Green Day, no matte what style of music they, old or new. My favorite album is 'Warning' and my favorite songs are Basket Case, Holiday, and Minority.

I heard that they already have all the songs for the next album written, they just need to record them but there waiting for the right time to do that.

Can't wait for a new album of them, it's sad that they are waiting though, I feel like they're just losing time

I don't listen to them a lot, but they are a great band, and seem really amazing live. My fave songs are probably Good Riddance (played at my HS grad), Waiting, and Restless Heart Syndrome

What's wrong with tht touring musicians? They only contribute to the sound and just stand there looking pretty and don't say anything! Emil's right, it wouldn't be as good without all the crazy running around and ..err...weird things haha! An they wouldn't be able to play songs to their full glory wihtout an extra guitarist/pianist/other...They are ESSENTIALLY "just the three of them"... :2cool4u:

Well I wouldn't say they stand there looking pretty :silly: . But yeah, you're right. Without them, Billie Joe would not be able to be as good a frontman as he is now. Having seen them twice in the UK, I can safely say he's one of the best, if not the best, frontman of a band I've seen (and I've seen a lot of bands). They sound excellent live, even in stadiums (I was there at Wembley Stadium last year)

I'm sort of similar when it comes to listening to the records. I used to be really into them. However, the Sums have overtaken them in terms of my last.fm count.The 5 year wait between AI and 21CB was too long imo with all the touring they did. Sometimes when I've listened to 21CB I've been like "Drop the concept record stuff", but AI really is a masterpiece. I get annoyed when people say "new Green Day sucks, we want the old Green Day" or anything post Warning is awful without a coherent argument. People also fail to realise that people grow up (the same goes for Sum 41, but oddly not for Blink 182), so they aren't going to sing songs about masturbation anymore.

There aren't many bands I would put above them out there at the moment.

I'm pretty much agreeing with everything you're saying haha, American Idiot was the first album I ever bought, and it's good! People just want to sound cool, as if they're too good for bands that lots of people like, and are "mainstream". These people irritate me. 21CB is a little slow for me, but there's some really great stuff on there too.

I'm personally glad that they have slightly more mature lyrics lol, I don't mind singing along so much anymore :winkwink: that's a good point though about Blink, maybe we'll see a change when their New stuff is out, after a while to grow up away...?

And also YES, Green Day have put on the best show I've seen :mrgreen: Saw them in Sheffield Arena year and a bit ago, right near the front, GREAT. I'd like to mention King For A Day here too :silly:

The last blink record was a mature album, they were supposed to go far with the next album (pre break up)... Sadly the band started to fall apart (and did)

How is Asthenia similar to Carousel?

Sorry, I am a massive blink fan :suicide:


On topic: Green Day is cool, looking forward to their new album. I also enjoyed the game Harmonix made for them.

Green Day sucks and they are raging douchebags who think they know how politics work in America when they are not even from the US, but they complain about stuff as if it were a burden to them. And for Americans to give them such attention and great reviews for American Idiot even though it was only 3 years after 9/11 and all it did was insult Americans, is completely disgraceful. Fuck America? NO, FUCK YOU GREENDAY!!!
