Gallagher Rose Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 (edited) It's out there now, on mininova and other sites. Before the Lobotomy is fuckin' amazing, incredible..and Restless Heart Syndrome sounds like Oasis. A very good album is coming!

Snake Eyes Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Finished 21st Century Breakdown so far, fucking good song. Onto the next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuffle Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I don't want to listen to any more songs (besides Know Your Enemy) before I hear the full album, especially since it's only three days left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakey Styley Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Only one song loaded for me, and it was East Jesus Nowhere or what ever it was called. It was meh. I used to be into Green Day, not so much anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nunchuck Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Why would you come on to this topic just to say "meh" or "fuck green day"? guess you have no life?.....the songs are awesome mate, and just because the songs are highly influenced by stuff like The Beatles, The Clash and The Who, doesn't nessceraliy mean its generic. Maybe they just like to write proper tunes, instead of banging on a metal tin in a cave and calling it original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallagher Rose Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 at least they don't release the same old stuff recycled, like ACDC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drtydane Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Epic? You're fucking kidding. Green Day hasn't one "epic" song, and consistantly get worse with every release. I can't believe anyone over the age of 15 is still buying these guys records. The first couple were decent, when I was young. But seriously, this band SUCKS.

Dead Flower Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I think Boulevard Of Broken Dreams being played on the radio every five minutes back in '05 jaded me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Eyes Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 at least they don't release the same old stuff recycled, like ACDC.AC/DC don't recycle stuff... Gone Shootin', Thunderstruck, Stiff Upper Lip, Stormy May Day, Hail Caesar, Moneytalks, Black Ice, Breaking The Rules, Hells Bells, Touch Too Much, Night Prowler, The Jack, Can I Sit Next To You Girl... etc. Just because they stick to their roots doesn't mean they recycle material and riffs. Their honest about the kind of band they are and release consistently awesome records wherether some admit it or not.Anyway - I thought 21st Century Breakdown, East Jesus Nowhere, Restless Heart Syndrome and 21 Guns were great. Before The Lobotomy and American Eulogy didn't do anything for me but I'll listen a few more times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppelin Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I actually didn't mind these songs at first. Restless Heart Syndrome and American Eulogy aren't too bad, but I've found myself liking these new songs less and less as I hear them more.Maybe it's because every single song has to have some acoustic sob introduction and then the electric guitars have to come in at some point. As someone said above, hearing Boulevard of Broken Dreams so many times makes you hear that song in every sappy song Green Day makes from that point and on. It's not like Time of Your Life where it's unique and still holds up today as a really great acoustic song. Now, it's just like these songs have to have acoustics to sound sincere and they flop.I don't know. I'm not a huge fan of these songs and I'll still listen to the album, but why can't any of these songs have balls? Something to get you pumped a little at least. Instead, they're just sappy and unmemorable. It's unfortunate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am gonna wait til Fri the 15th. All I have heard so far is the 21CB demo,KYE and bits and pieces of live bootlegs. I am pretty pumped.I'll just stream it tomorrow... I'm not strong enough to wait for a physical copy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallagher Rose Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 Horseshoes and Handgrenades is fuckin fantastic..the ballads are really good, specially Last Night on Heart. The album is a mix of American Idiot and Warning, the production is really good. Since I'm not a fan of Warning, for me it's a great album but not better than American Idiot...some tunes sound like the old green day, most of them. Thumbs up for Murder City Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conor Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I liked it. I'm still a bit worried that all the songs are too similar to each other. That being said, good album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
