saulh Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I'm just wondering how many people love or despise Greenday. Warning: This May Be Shocking to some... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metallica1 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I did buy "American Idiot" when it first came out.......I don't listen to it anymore, I don't need to, it's fucking everywhere.I absolutely dispise everything about Greenday now. I'm sick of hearing them everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saulh Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 i couldn't agree more. one day i turned on all the respectable music channels the time american idiot was a single and the fuckin' thing was on every fuckin' channel. what the hell were they thinkin? they're not about the music anymore, its all this anti-bush shit that everyone's heard before!

-Sephiroth- Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 When I first saw boulevard of broken dreams on a list on tv I thought that green day had made a cover of the LA Guns song with the same name, I got dissapointed when I heard the song and discovered that it was not.

slashs_servant Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 They are respectable. Only 2 good songs off american idiot is jesus of surburbia and wake me up when september ends... The rest is just pop mainstream garbage and i hate listening to it :| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nunchuck Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I completely despise their pussy-shit pop rock approach. They definetely don't praise and hail satan enough for my liking They use way too much melody in their candy-ass songs and sing about things i don't care about, like politics, i couldn't give a shit what happened to the world, i just wanna party on, dude, like it was the 80's! Who said Nirvana saved rock music?!... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sick of hearing them everywhere. agreed.they are fucking EVERYWHERE now, all these magazines, their songs all over the radio, like half a year after i first heard them, damn its annoying.unfortionately, they have now been lumped in with bands like Blink 182 as a band that may have had an allright song at sometime or another, but now just wish theyd disappear. (well i no blink just split up, but you know what i mean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesilikegnr Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I think their older stuff was better than American Idiot.If I hear them played on the radio one more time, I will smash it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saulh Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 who the fuck calls their drummer tre cool anyway? there's a guy i know who sings for a covers band that has TEN greenday songs on their set. i'm like "what the fuck?!" their fan base has an average age of what?... 13? i'm getting really sick and tired of teenage girls boasting about their love for billie joe... he's a fuckin' pop twat for god's sake! i don't give a shit about bush, it's supposed to be about the music not politics!

Shia0bundan Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 If he wants to write about politics, he can. Thats how he feels. Music: Write down what you feel.There's nothing wrong with calling their drummer 'Tre Cool', its no worse than calling a guitarist 'The Edge'.

Bruno Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Green Day rocks. Their older stuff is better imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boy Sixxx Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 (edited) theyre alright, nowt specialbeing political is nothing new and to be honest as we're in such a political age its was probably just a move they made to sell more records to those people who think music has to have some kind of meaning for it to be good, whilst simultaneously selling to kids world wide with their pop-punk soundsome of their older stuffs ok - last ride in is on my stoner cd Edited April 13, 2005 by Big Boy Sixx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pagge Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I always loved them. too bad their newer stuff has been over expossed by the media Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fizz Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 They're everywhere these days. The songs are decent but the singles they've released off American Idiot are vastly overplayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(well i no blink just split up, but you know what i mean) Yeh and of course its the band's fault that the radio and MTV overplays them, when the record came out they said "we've worked really hard on this album so will you please play it to death so that people get sick of it, that will really fly!" If you dont like the band or the songs, then fair enough but it aint the fault of the band or the songs themselves if the media is blasting em out non stop.

I agree, he should go with his real name which is 'Frank Edwin Wright III', now that's a drummers name Im sure Billie Joe must also get sick and tired of teenage girls expressing their love for him, what a drag that must be for the guy! i personally say 'long may it continue' cause i look like the dude and believe me, it pays off dividends! Only ten GD songs in the set? like, which ones are they missing, dude?! Im sure the music still is the most important thing, their hatred and contempt for Bush was just something to channel their energies into whilst writing the album, i personally think its very important to be politically aware of whats around you, if i was living in America, id be shit scared right now because the guy is a moron, for example, i bet you and i are more geographically aware then he is and this is the guy who is in charge of the united states of America! the ramifications of that are frightening, and it doesnt just affect America.
