Any Green Day fans?

[SolidSnake526]

Just bought Bullet in a Bible and ripped it in WAV-Lossless.

Sounds incredible, and the DVD is also really cool.

[Ry Fryy]

I liked Green Day back when they were real punk. Now they're just media-whoring sell-outs, but thanks for the early tunes guys. ^_^

yes. im afraid its true :(

i liked When I Come Around not Wake Me Up When September Ends

i mean sure, some of there stuff is good but the whole band image as stated above has changed entirely

[AC91]

Well, some of the songs are ok...

[Project Diaz]

i agree with capita and fryy, but some of there new songs are still ok.

[cpw]

Yes, Green Day is pretty good, but I agree that their older songs were better. I like American Idiot, Time of Your Life, Haha you're dead, Holiday, Wake me Up, and another one that's called Parkview or something...?

[ZIONIC]

I Liked them back in like 5th grade Dookie was by far my most played CD... possibly ever.

[Hazo1]

I loved that, time of your life is their best song!

All those songs are great, but my favorite (and most listened to) song from them is Jesus of Suburbia.

i mean sure, some of there stuff is good but the whole band image as stated above has changed entirelyYeah. Their good newer stuff is like Jesus of Suburbia, Homecoming, American Idiot*, Holiday*, and St. Jimmy.

(*: I liked them due to the political message it's based on, not the song itself).

{Edit}: They sound really good in concert, amazingly enough.

[SolidSnake526]

I loved that, time of your life is their best song!YEAH!

Billy Joe does a live version on Bullet in a Bible, but it's entirely on the electric guitar. :) it sounds so cool!

[dr mcguire]

i LUV Green Day. their music got me into good tunes. now i wanna be a rock star!!!

[2-d]

Green day is pretty sweet
their old stuff is better but some of their new is ok

[Barry Nostrils]

All those songs are great, but my favorite (and most listened to) song from them is Jesus of Suburbia.

That song is the best song ever... well not ever, but it pwnz.

[BLUEDEVIL008]

all of their songs SUCK, i really could make better songs than that, they have bad singers, bad guitarists, nothing good

[SolidSnake526]

[SolidSnake526]

I hate metal...
And I detest groups like Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold, etc...

And have you ever heard them in concert? Almost identical to the CD.
Usually never happens.

KsE are awesome in concert, I haven't been to one but I know people who have and have seen videos of them performing live. Tho, I think BLUEDEVIL should think before he types tho, because it seems to me he has no idea what he is going on about.

[Ry Fryy]

I wouldn't really consider that a plus. I've seen plenty of concerts and one of them was for Primus. They turned nearly every song in to a 15 minute jam session. If I wanted to hear them sound the same, I could just listen to the CD. A band should really should better live, if anything. An example of this is TOOL. The singer, Maynard, somehow sounds better in concert. It's crazy.

not all metal bands sound horrible playing live
some sound great live
and its not just metal bands that sound bad live
its whether tha band actually has talent or is just a band who got lucky with a label

A 2.5 minute song stretched to nearly 5 minutes of just guitar and Billy Joe riling up the crowd.

The closest thing to metal that I like is Stone Sour.

yes i like the nimrod cd and early cd's much better than american idiot

[Waffle]

um guys, hate to break it you but green day sucks, only emos like them

[SolidSnake526]

um guys, hate to break it you but green day sucks, only emos like themYeah, 'cuz I'm sooooooo emotional...
Yep, I cut myself all the time!

I'm one of the most emotionless bastards you'll ever meet!
I have two emotions: bored and angry.

I happen to like music with a political basis, but that's just me.

[Silent Jay88]

I've been a fan of Green Day ever since I heard them for the first time on the radio. A great deal of their songs are memorable (especially from Dookie) and can be recognized by a vast majority of people. They have influenced so many bands to join the punk rock scene and I even tryed my luck at it, though it didn't quite go as planned :oops: . All in all, they may have sold out to the mainstream, but they will always be a classic band with classic songs. That's just my opinion, however.

[2-d]

wafle you're a dumbs***
green day isn't emo
f****r

[Penguin]

i agree with most of you guys there old stuff was great but i just dont like them anymore
also avenged sevenfold suck ass

[Ry Fryy]

I'll slightly defend Avenged Sevenfold in this situation. As a whole, they're not a very good band, BUT, their guitar player is amazing. He should really think about leaving the band and either making his own or joining a already well-developed band. He's too damn good.

[SolidSnake526]

i agree with most of you guys there old stuff was great but i just dont like them anymore
also avenged sevenfold suck assLol so true.

I like some of Green Day's newer songs... but the old stuff was just amazing. Good Riddance, Geek Stink Breath, Longview, Nice Guys Finish Last, etc...

[SolidSnake526]

wafle you're a dumbs***
green day isn't emo

Lol he's probably a white kid trying to be black but wears Abercrombie :D

Before they turned gay

[SolidSnake526]

Before they turned gay
A: gay? When did this happen?
B: When do you call "before they turned gay?"
C: Do you just not like songs with political messages?
D: Or do you not care about the point of a song, but rather simply what it sounds like?

[I am a Goat]

Never cared much for Green Day.
Dookie was an Amazing album. Longview is one of the best songs of all time.
But I think their recent stuff sucks, dont mean to offend anyone, I just hate their new stuff.

That just sounds like you heard one song off a new(er) album and said "This sux0rz" and decided to call them "gay" without giving the rest of the songs a chance.

In any case, Longview is a really good song. If you like their older songs, you might like International Superhits!

[jbeckwith23]

yep, green day is awesome

Dittttoooooo.

[B Nanny]

I used to like them, but my friend is such a FxAxG about them that I hate them AND him. He constantly sings like an idiot and makes his voice sound dumb like Panic! At the Disco singers. He's on my HxIxT list...

[Raptor]

I was a Green Day fan until they sold out their look and sound for more money.

They basically abandoned all of the old fans for new wannabee casual music listeners.
