Green Day - ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, and ¡Tré!: What do you think?
5 replies, posted
I've always identified as a huge Green Day fan, but recently, they're new stuff just doesn't seem up to par. Don't even get me started about the angry birds game they're getting. Let me explain what I mean:
1990: Green Day releases 39/Smooth. The album was damn good, and had a very raw feel to it.
1992: Kerplunk is released, and features Tré Cool (the current drummer) for the first time.
1994: Green Day releases Dookie, their biggest hit to date. It is also my favorite album of all time.
1995: Insomniac, Green Day's darkest album by far. A few highlights include Brain Stew and Geek Stink Breath.
1997: Nimrod is released, and it contains a large variety of tracks from straight up punk rock (Platypus, Take Back), to a relaxing instrumental (Last Ride In).
2000: Green Day releases Warning, which wasn't too successful. In this album Green Day expierements with pop rock elements.
2004: American Idiot is released, their second most successful album. It was definite change in style, but still fucking great.
2009: 21'st Century Break Down is released. This album was where I think things started going too pop rock for my taste. Still sounded decent, but it wasn't not the green day I learned to love.
It just seems like they are moving more and more to pop. I honestly am very worried about these up coming albums. My hopes were raised when I hear It's Fuck Time, but they were once again dashed when I heard Oh Love. So Facepunch, do you have any expectations for these upcoming albums?
they've p much always been pop-punk and p much always been awful
their earlier albums are mediocre at best

I cannot stress how fucking annoying this shit is why did they even-
Fuck I told you not to get me started.
1994-2000 are the best years, IMO.
