Green Day

[Joost]

I don't think they're just SLF rip offs. I think they were just as much influenced by the Ramones, the Buzzcocks and the earlier Lookout bands.

I don't know if they're geniis (nice word...). I used to think not because their music is so simple, but after years of writing songs myself I found out that writing a dozen good three chord songs is probably much harder than writing a dozen good songs without any limitations...

i think they suck..(sorry-americanism)

i second that. and American Idiot sucked ass as a "protest" song. protest my ass. just a great way to cash in

Why can't people just accept that there actually are some rock stars that are greatful that they've got a platform to express their opinions, and want to use it for what they consider important issues?

And still I'd rather hear half-harted political songs than that dumb rock jock nonsense that people like Fred Durst of Kid Rock write...

yeah, also, immature title, lyrics...they should act there age now, how old are they? proberly bout 40 now, so i think they should really forget it..plus they suck ass at their instruments.

Say what you want the guys know how to write "hit" songs! They have staged prehaps the biggest comeback in the History of Rock! Sold out concerts along with millions in record sales! They deserve every penny of it!

Kyoko was staying with you PC?

I just like American Idiot cuz it's really catchy. I like that guitar riff. A lot of their songs are catchy.

The thing that really stands out about this cd is how a band who didn't bring out a cd for 5 years could write something as good from a rock/song standpoint. The band also cleverly ran the videos in succession to tell a biger story about the cd. Green Day were pretty well written off in the world of rock and they returned with a multimillion selling cd and sold out tour !

[pc31]

you got paid to say that i bet.....

"No" just a casual observation of clever marketing.

[Pasta Cheif]

Maybe during the first couple of albums they were inclined to resurrect Punk, but they were never Grunge. Now that they're selling millions and winning Grammies and s**t, I would consider them more pop.

And for the record, Green Day I don't think they suck, I actually enjoy some of their recent songs but favor the early ones.
