The Official Green Day Thread

haha, maybe I was taking it a bit too far, kind of tired, but hey, you must know there are people out there who actually are like that. I can name a few *cough*stefanie*cough*
of course none of you know stefanie, but she's a stupid bitch who should die.
 
Which makes it even more stupid. It seems to me like scenes just propogate elitism and closemindedness. I think if scensters don't like a particular band, they just toss it into the dreaded 'pop' catagory to try to get rid of it. These are just outside observations though, so its very likely they could be wrong. :)
 
I actually enjoy when a banRAB music evolves, it keeps music fresh. Some banRAB do a good job and come up with something thats totally unique and rocks, then get alot of slack from their core fans because it doesnt sound the same as the last albums. Then on the other hand, there are the banRAB that used to be somewhat unique and changed to make their music more radio friendly and appeal to a larger market. I dont necessarily blame them though, afterall they are making a living playing music while suckers like us get stuck working a 40hr week. Dire Straits said it best "money for nothing and the chicks for free". All in all i think the whole discussion is kinda pointless. If you like old Green Day good for you, If you like new Green Day, good for you, If you like crass, exploited, subhumans, good for you, if you like willie nelson and garth brooks, good for you...etc. etc. etc.
 
don't think that greenday is punk (don't think that they are really trying to be, though)...but it is kinda weird, i think that i read somewhere on this website that they played a concert with simple plan...i lost respect for green day after that...nobody with a working mind and at least one nut in his sack should play with those corporate-created, image-rocking, bottom-feeding, metrosexual, prostate sucking, Oedipus Complex, poser bastarRAB.
 
Kerplunk! is actually my favorite album by them. Well other then American Idiot...

Honestly, I only think Green Day had two 'bad' albums: Insomniac, and 21st Century Breakdown. I also think they've only had one amazing album: American Idiot. I still listen to their older material (Kerplunk, Dookie, Nimrod) everyone once in awhile when I'm in a good mood, but for the most part I've found they're just good, not great.
 
^^and people who don't listen to what they actually like just because it's mainstream are better? sure, i do admit that older GD was better, i myself own all of their cRAB, including american idiot, and i also do admit that i DO judge some new GD fans who think american idiot is like the best cd ever without even knowing about their old stuff, but i dont really blame the band for their fame, or the fact that american idiot sucks compared to insomniac, nimrod and warning (my fave gd albums) and the rest of them too. not every new album can top the older ones... actually that rarely happens, but when then were recording the album i dont think they KNEW it would be a huge success internationally. but yeah, i dont like new gd fans who walk around in gd tshirts and think they look punk while their other fave banRAB are good charlotte and simple plan. but im still lovin green day the band :D
 
what do you mean? A campus- like a college campus. What I meant to say is I spend most of my time at school (better?) in front of a comp killing time. Is that what you were asking? I shoulda just PMed that to Anarchy Doll, now everyone's gonna disect my post to look for slip-ups. So if anyone wants to take cheap-shots for all my apparent "smarter than you" posts of the past, this is the time to do it. Now, if you dont mind, I have to go back to my computer geek duties.
 
:wavey:


Yep.

hiu,
In response to your post below. His conduct in the Kiss thread was bad enough, but at least it was on topic. Then he polluted this thread with his single minded opinions...about Kiss!
Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but it's a two way street.
He was given fair warning.
