Green Day

I dont care what anyone, I believe american idiot is a great CD, ESPECIALLY for the Few GREAT songs on there:
NovaCaine
Wake me up when september ends
Are we are waiting
Jesus Of Suburbia
Holiday

Those are all great songs and the others arent THAT bad, so IMO, its pretty good, its just alot of people fear change and thats what happened, Green day Matured and changed

And to the comment about them being too old, if it wasnt for the old people, none of the new would have anything to look up to! and the Old people are usually the best musicians! you mean to tell me CHEVELLE live sounds better than Green day live or Red Hot Chili Peppers Live? Well, you need to get off that sh*t your taking. (I know its hard to compare those different types of music but just compare the showmanship and the ability to play the intrument, The "Old Skool" is the greatest!)

I really don't like punk, but I do like Green Day.

I'm trying to get all of Green Day's US albums. I have all of them except for Kerplunk, Warning, and 1039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours.

Good Riddance was really the song that brung me into liking Green Day. I actually enjoyed American Idiot more than any of their other albums, but American Idiot sounds the most different from all other GD albums.

I do agree that BoBD is severely overplayed. I even hate listening to it on my iPod now, but eh. I do like Wake Me Up When September Ends and Jesus of Suburbia on AI. The bonus tracks on the AI EP are nothing special though.

Welcome to Paradise, obviously, is a spectacular song.

And that's all that is really necessary to know.

Of course you say this album sucks, it's because it's popular, and you don't like what everybody else likes, do you? No, you don't. You hate popular music just because it's popular. *provokes*

:rolleyes2 The reason I think they've gone downhill is because they HAVE!!! The old albums rocked, but I think International Superhits was stupid. It's like, wow! Lots of songs you've sang before!! And for your information, quite a lot of the music I like is popular music. Quite frankly, Bouvelard of Broken Dreams was a pile of dog poo.

The song American Idiot was pretty awesome and so was Holiday, but the rest are so brain-numbingly boring I actually considered ripping out my eyelashes just for something to do.

I hate it when bands get political, so American Idiot can kiss my ass. I'll stick to singing along with "Long View" and "She."

I can't say I agree with that. Sometimes it's awesome when bands get political and start complaining about the government and stuff. Especially when NOFX did it. :D

Are you talking about ALL rock bands, or Green Day? Get a life. "They all smell" - how childish can you get.
