Dunno we've had it for ages but I just finally started listening to it this week. "lol". Dunno, hotttttt CD, everything flows nicely and it makes me happy to listen to. Lots of good tunes. The first song doesn't like fit the rest of the CD at all, sound-wise. Still good though. I forgot how much the man Green Day are :'(

Had the album for awhile loved it.
Saw them in albany last night, and what a fuckin show. One of the best live shows I've seen, better than expected specially their covers of Shout and We Are The Champions

It's not a terrific album. There's a few good songs on there. Although that Boulevard of Broken Dreams is fuckin stupid. It's so slow and depressing. If I want to listen to depressing songs, I'll borrow Simple Plan off someone.

Oi. Why would anyone want to listen to a Simple Plan anyway?
Boulevard of Broken Dreams is a decent song, but it really shines in its place within the concept album American Idiot is supposed to be. context. Depressing? yeah, but it's cool.
And this is considering I can't name a single SONG off one of their other records I even like.

American Idiot is a fantastic album. One of the best of the last five years or so.
As has been said before, the title track doesn't quite fit the overall feel of the album, but it does sort of work as a foreword to it. Top to bottom, there's not a weak song on the album, and I constantly find myself humming one track or another.
When I first heard that they were making a "rock opera," I thought they'd completely lost their minds, but it really is wonderful. I don't think I'll ever get tired of it.

Exactly my point.
It's a fantastic album which I think is Green Day's best work. American Idiot, Jesus of Suburbia, Holiday, Boulevard, Letterbomb, When September Ends and Homecoming are all top songs. In my view it's the album of the year.

I can't pick a bad song off the album.
They don't thrash it on the radio station I listen to, so the only time I hear it is when I play it.

The only song I hear on the radio is BoBD.
Not surprising though.

Yeah this CD still pwns. Been listening to it nonstop since I've gotten it. Jesus of Suburbia is like the greatest song ever, next to the mandatory Blink nominees, and/or The Decline. HOTTTTTTTtttttttttttt. God I wish I didn't stop listening to Green Day for so long :(

Going to see them on Sunday, supported by Taking Back Sunday, Jimmy Eat World and Hard-Fi.

I nearly played it in the car the other day when I was on a long trip - I played the new Foo Fighters instead :y:
Green Day still rocks tho'

I completely agree.
I actually finally got myself to listen to it last month and I was really impressed by it. Boulevard of Broken dreams being played 15,000 times a day on the radio was pretty much halting me from listening to it. Glad I did :y:

lol wtf? I thought the whole big "thing" about punk music was that they had this big message about whatever. Hence why people are like "omg blink aren't punk, SEX PISTOLS ARE FUCKING PUNK RARRRRRR"
Green Day are immense, hush now.

If punk is all about a message, why are the Ramones (Often as shallow as the beach boys) considered punk?

06-24-2005, 04:42 PM
I don't care either way. I'm referring to all the whiney retards who are like "punk is all about being anti-authority" or whatever, and calling bands like Sum 41, Blink 182, Good Charlotte, etc not punk because they're poppy or whatever. I don't know, I just find it hilarious when people bitch about it at all

Yeah, but the reason that they're not punk isn't that they're not "anti-authority," it's because they're more produced than New Wave, can't play for shit, and really have nothing to do with punk.
It had nothing to do with authority. The only "rebellion" in punk was from overprocessed sound and overproduced record cuts. Which all those groups use. In other words, it was counter-culture, so by definition, Blink can never be punk.
But hey, ramble on like the stupid twat you normally are. I mean, it must be punk because you said so...

I don't think RDD is saying they are punk. He is saying he just laughs at the people who bitch and moan about those bands not being punk.

Does it matter? His argument is pointless anyway.
Besides, he calls them punk all the time. I'd say he's said they're punk enough.
They're only considered "punk" because whiny understood little girls like him don't want to call them what they really are...Boy bands.

Yeah, they're a fusion act.
If punk is all about a message, why are the Ramones (Often as shallow as the beach boys) considered punk?
It depends on the era. Punk meant different things at different times. In the begining it was a conservative movement (the Ramones were mostly conservative as an example) and it was about just being over the top, and playing shitty songs as fast as you could. In the 80's/90's, punk became more about a message. In recent years it has morphed into some kind of annoying whiney emo bullshit.
Green Day just fucking sucks to me. They marketed punk to the masses in a bubble gum disguise and created legions of kids who thought they were being all cool and different, like all the annoying real punk kids who real and different, but atleast the "real punks" most of the time were listening to music that provoked real thought. Same thing with Blink and all those shitty pop punk bands, marketing punk to the masses.. I woulndt even hate GD so much if it werent for that American Idiot song. they wait till they can safely have a message before they decide to. fuck them.
Seriously ahh I hate GD, give me some fucking Bad Religion, best punk band ever.

you only hold this opinion because you know you listen to shitty girl music.
