Green Day Back in the studio

Contributed by coffinfullofnails. Posted by aubin on Wednesday, August 30, 2006 at 12:18 AM (EDT)

Green Day posted on their official site that it has put away the sunscreen and is hard at work on a brand new (and already hotly anticipated) album. And while additional details remain scarce, a spokesperson for the band's label, Reprise Records, did confirm to MTV that writing is underway at an undisclosed studio in California's East Bay area. The spokesperson went on to note that it is still very early in the recording process, and that Green Day have not settled on a producer, title or release date for the new album.

With Monday's announcement, it appears that official business has, uh, officially begun on the new album. And while it remains to be seen just how Green Day plan on following up American Idiot - an album that sold more than 5 million copies in the U.S. and won the Grammy for Best Rock Album - the band promised a full update on the new record would be posted on its Web site next week.

first and fuck green day,american idiot was the most over rated hyped up cd i've ever heard

colin (August 30, 2006)

1 2 3 4 who's punk what's the score

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

that doesn't really apply here douchebag.

JTravolta (August 30, 2006)

It really does.

Badger_Legion (August 30, 2006)

She/He didn't mention anything about it being "not punk", so no it doesn't.

jumptheshark (August 30, 2006)

the point is that the comment came off as someone trying to hard to be punk and hate on them just for being mainstream

BrendanKelly (August 30, 2006)

me.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

Hey a qoute from another peice of shit overated band!

Yeah we've all heard the song, do we have to qoute it in every fucking topic?

MikeStupid (August 30, 2006)

As if the word "overrated" isn't used in every other sentence around here...

niveK82 (August 30, 2006)

not at all

/armirite?

Someone (August 30, 2006)

High five!

Someone (August 30, 2006)

youre retarded. have you ever even listened to them?

Someone (August 30, 2006)

yay!

leifkills (August 30, 2006)

1 2 X U!

TheYoungInfluential (August 30, 2006)

so clever!

Sirens (August 30, 2006)

fuck green day, worst mainstream band out there

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

worse tha FOB P!ATD or A7X. sorry ill have to disagree.

Sirens (August 30, 2006)

nope. a7x has way more talent. FOB and panic, ive never heard. Greend day BLLLLOOOWS

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

they may have talent but they sure as fuck don't know how to use it that shit is some of the worst music ive ever heard. atleast green day knows how to use what talent they have(not saying they are the most talented but they do have some). thats why they've been around for around a decade and A7X is just another shitty band that will be gone soon.

ilikepunkrock (August 30, 2006)

um no. Green Day isn't even close to what they were in the past but they are a lot better than at least 70% of the mainstream bands out there.

Nameless (August 30, 2006)

Um... did you not hear We Don't Need to Whisper?

Someone (September 4, 2006)

Okay, whoever said that, is stupid, im glad Green Day is coming back, i love all of their stuff, but i would love to hear some newer music :D Green Day is awesome, im an obsesser over them and i cant wait to hear the next album, and btw, Billie Joe, i Love you :P

J.A.

Someone (September 9, 2006)

u piss me off plain and simple

TheYoungInfluential (August 30, 2006)

Nnnnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!! !!!!!!

colin (August 30, 2006)

i am super stoked for this. always loved this band. insomniac > most records.

Wentz_Equals_Death (August 30, 2006)

yah

TrueBeliever (August 30, 2006)

I really hated American Idiot, but I listen to it again like a month ago, with all the Green Day mania finally being over, and I finally realized how good that album is.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

if this story is true you are a tool

Someone (August 30, 2006)

yeah, i hated it at first, then i realised i was being an ass.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

haha. and you are a fucking idiot. tearing people down is fun, isn't it? yeah....

Someone (August 30, 2006)

yeah it fucking is

Someone (August 30, 2006)

you're a person who knows what you're talking about. kudos my new friend.

Problematiclogic (August 30, 2006)

Yeah, it's much easier to appreciate after all the "OMG BILLIE JOE IS SOOOO HAWT" crap has gone away (for now at least)

jumptheshark (August 30, 2006)

I loved it from the start...and then the Green Day mania brought my love for it down a notch. I'll have to go back to it and be reminded of how fantastic it truly is

GlassPipeMurder (August 30, 2006)

this could be good.

this could not be good.

vjonnyv (August 30, 2006)

PROFOUND. :-)

Just kidding. I loved American Idiot. It was my favorite Green Day album since Dookie. I don't think this one will be very good, I'm feeling another "Warning." But you never know.

jumptheshark (August 30, 2006)

definitely covered all the bases there

Nameless (August 30, 2006)

Wow... that's amazing...

So many possibilities... so little time.

BrendanKelly (August 30, 2006)

MY ALBUM LEAKED!
oh and fuck these douches.

daved4 (August 30, 2006)

haha poor brendan
i have the link for the leakage of unicoriography
but still contemplating weather to wait to buy it or not...
hmm

fluxy44 (August 30, 2006)

show bitch

JoshCBFL (August 30, 2006)

Yeah, I got your cd. It's pretty good..but after one listen, I think I like Oh! Calcutta! better.

88-fingers-tony (August 30, 2006)

how is chris' face after getting it kicked in dekalb?

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

mccaughn got kicked in the face? ellaborate please.

88-fingers-tony (August 31, 2006)

kids were stage diving at the house in dekalb, and since the stage is so low, he got one right in the face by a kid jumping off. they even stopped mid song and chris seemed pretty pissed.

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

they should just make a fast, sloppy short punk album. thats the only way to follow american idiot. also, it would be cool to see them dabble in some operation-ivy ska (no horns).

MikeStupid (August 30, 2006)

If they put out another album like Insomniac, I'd be thrilled. Probably isn't going to happen though.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

yeah. but i mean. i think it might happen sort of. like the only record that could follow up Dookie was Insomniac. which was like...a going back, sort of, you know? so its like...after alll this, i'd hope they would look and be like "man...lets just go back to some roots really fast, just have a bit of fun and make something honest" not that American Idiot wasn't. but...well yeah....hopefully this makes sense.

Smithy (August 30, 2006)

Exactly. Even something approaching Warning would be nice!

Someone (August 30, 2006)

going back??? they never sounded that hard before. what the hell are you talking about?

Someone (August 30, 2006)

You know exactly what he's talking about. It's really not that hard of a conept.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

it doesn't make sense. sorry.

after dookie came out, green day pretty much just wanted to rid their fan base of all the teeny bopper types and sort of "prove" that they were still a punk band. that album sounds absolutly nothing like green day's first two efforts.

it worked out though. insomniac's one of my favorite albums.

sarcasm101 (August 30, 2006)

it would be cool to see them do some op-ivy type of stuff.

i think they fucked them selves with American Idiot. it wasnt nearly as good as everyone kept saying it was.

for me, green day's done for. they had a good run in the beginning but they messed up when they strayed away from their punk roots.

jumptheshark (August 30, 2006)

1. I totally agree

2. It'll never happen. Much as we'd love it, I doubt the band is interested in an artistic regression (as they/critics/most people would see it).

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

i say 600 comments.

TrueBeliever (August 30, 2006)

yeah man, expect the punknew.org server to just go downhill

Someone (August 30, 2006)

Barely even 200

Someone (August 30, 2006)

American Idiot was great, when you ignore all the media and hype that surrounded the dudes.
I think this could either be bad, or great.
we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

fanfuckintastic

tylerdurden8136 (August 30, 2006)

I think I'm one of the few people who doesn't think American Idiot was overhyped...I feel Green Day deserve everything they got for that album.

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

i agree, its truly an epic album. i just wish they woulda played smaller clubs in support of it instead of arenas. arena shows aren't even shows.

jumptheshark (August 30, 2006)

hell yes

BrendanKelly (August 30, 2006)

Fight Club sux.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

well, there are a few shit songs that are overplayed (wake me up, blvd. of broken dreams)

tylerdurden8136 (August 30, 2006)

Blvd did get overplayed, I'll agree.

But if you listen to the album all the way through, it's not really that big of a problem, it all just seems to flow so well.

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

i agree, for wake me up (its a needed song in that album) but i truly hate blvd of broken dreams and skip it whenever it comes on (thats the only green day song i ever skip (well, sometimes 'last ride in').

The4footpartysub (August 30, 2006)

yeah i definatly think its a good album. but when i listen to it i usually end up skipping the first, third, and fourth tracks because they just got overplayed to a point where i can never listen to them again. but, the two 9 minute long songs seem to fit in very well and flow real nice. i think if the album wasn't released under the name "green day", if they wore less eyeliner, if it was put out on an indie label, and got no media attention, people would like it a lot more.

colin (August 30, 2006)

i don't know how it is you and fuckyouoioioi and i agree on anything

but we all do.

that,combined with teh falcon leak, means the world must be ending.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

the album leaked?!

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

agreed.

cash_money_hustla (August 30, 2006)

When American Idiot first came out everyone on this site was crazy for it. Then, the songs started getting played everywhere and all of a sudden everyone hated it.

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

exactly and it has just gotten so old. if you like something then like it, don't stop because all of a sudden everyone else likes it.

Dante3000 (rich) (August 30, 2006)

I am honestly not at all interested in this. I just got so tired of the American Idiot hype machine.
I wish the general public could go back to ignoring this band.
-Dante

Someone (August 30, 2006)

You're so uninterested that you read the article and felt the need to comment on it.

Yeah, right.

Dickhead.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

oh, Dante got served!

Dante3000 (rich) (August 30, 2006)

And I have so much of an impact on your life you felt the need to read my comment and then reply to it.

Congrats you're more pathetic than you think I am.
-Dante

Someone (August 30, 2006)

I know you are but what am I?

Someone (August 30, 2006)

You made a bloated rock opera. Fine. I hated it and the rest of the world loved it. Fine.

But please, please, tone down the "ambition" this time. Just a short, fast, insomniac-esque punk record. No underlying concept. 1 guitar, bass, and drums. No sloganeering. No mascara. No insanely embarassing movie-style Samuel Bayer music videos. Please. Please?

- Suck the Fuck

BrendanKelly (August 30, 2006)

it'll still suck. sorry dude.
check out the Falcon - Unicornography

Someone (August 30, 2006)

fucking hell you're a wanker. go die in a hole.

The4footpartysub (August 30, 2006)

"go die in a hole", haha i'm gonna start using that

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

dude, i don't think i've ever agrred more with any other post.

Dusticles (August 30, 2006)

it's what makes $$$$

i hate this band.

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

with the amount of money they have right now, i really doubt they give a shit about the cash of it...

Someone (August 30, 2006)

PS - The live show "hey-o's" have GOT to fucking go.

- Suck the Fuck

Someone (August 30, 2006)

haha. i realy like Green Day and think they put on a good live show.but yeah.they do. they get annoying, really fast.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

It's cool once. It's alrght twice. After that it gets really, really old.

Then again if I could get 65,000 people to repeat any stupid thing I said I'd probably do it all the fucking time too.

swank (August 30, 2006)

Buy a Pinhead Gunpowder record and stop bitching.

kman1224 (August 30, 2006)

Everyone says Jesus of Suburbia is a great rock opera....the Decline makes Jesus of Suburbia look like Dog doo-doo!

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

i agree, but if we compare everything to the decline everything will "suck the fuck".

Dusticles (August 30, 2006)

the decline compaired to teh revolt sucks

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

i agree, but if we compare everything to teh revolt everything will "suck the fuck".

justahippie (August 30, 2006)

Phish is way better man.

Dusticles (August 30, 2006)

this joke account isn't funny.

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

i think its pretty funny. definitely better than BrendanKelley.

some advice from a pro: make it less obvious.

justahippie (August 30, 2006)

No joke man...I'm a hippie that visits this site daily. And I grew up trying to listen to punk rock but I never could dig most of it. I love the Lawrence Arms though, I guess that's about as "punk" as I get...but what's the point of classification anyways, it's the same thing as seperation and division...and I never was any good at math. ha.

WorryRock (August 30, 2006)

dave and phish man, dave and phish.

justahippie (August 30, 2006)

I feel like, y'know, that dave is over rated somewhat. ever heard the live CD with him and Tim Reynolds? That's a boss CD if I've ever heard one. but the past few dmb albums have been sub par.

notfeelingcreative (August 30, 2006)

"Hey, I smell marijuana, that better be medicinal!"

JKyle (August 30, 2006)

I really hope the new album is closest in spirit to Warning: a collection of great, catchy pop songs with no unnecessary pretense of "punk-ness." Still their best album in my opinion.

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

if you think 'Warning' was their best album you can't like punk rock.

JKyle (August 30, 2006)

Oh noez, an anonymous internet persona has challenged my cred! I'm meeeelllllting!!

JTravolta (August 30, 2006)

I agree with you man, Warning is definitely their best. Don't worry about fuckyouoioioi, he's the local dipshit. Check out his band Teh Revolt to see what I mean.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

Actually my second favorite Green Day album. I could handle that too. I'd take "Geek Stink Breath" over that whole album though.

- Suck the Fuck

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

I'll be honest. Chances are anything they will release I'll love. I was happier around the Warning time, great album and they had a lot less hype around them.

Then again, it's not that hard to ignore the hype-outlets anymore.

The4footpartysub (August 30, 2006)

i think they made an album like warning and somebody stole it... so they made american idiot

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

i heard some of those demos from the stuff they were doing then. it had sort of a Warning-meets-Sex Pistols vibe to it.

jumptheshark (August 30, 2006)

where did you hear that stuff?!?!?! i wanna hear it so badly. someone please tell me if they know anything about where i can get my ears on some of it.

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

oh, and since the american idiot stage is done now, can we get a different icon for them than the heart/grenade?

FuckYouOiOiOi (August 30, 2006)

i agree. i've always been fond of this one:

JustLikeDelilah (August 30, 2006)

hahahahaha agreed.

EXCELSIOR!

Kursk (August 30, 2006)

Green Day are the only band I actually consider to be "sell-outs." I hate using that word, but they are, hopefully as someone said with the American Idiot stage over, Billy Joe will take off the eyeliner and the red tie and jump off the democratic bandwagon (at least that's what i saw). I still like a lot of their old stuff though...even through Warning.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

Green Day just shit $50,000 in the time it took you to type this shit out.

jacknife737 (August 30, 2006)

"American Idiot was great, when you ignore all the media and hype that surrounded the dudes."

I fully indorse this statement.

Hopefully it'll sound like a mix between warning/nimrod.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

You would "indorse" this statement. Shouldn't you be quoting Snakes on a Plane right now?

- Suck the Fuck

jumptheshark (August 30, 2006)

i agree but i wish you could spell Endorse because then you would look more intelligent and so would your opinion

iconoclast (August 30, 2006)

i like american idiot a lot.

MikeStupid (August 30, 2006)

My opinion of "American Idiot" went from amazed to bored to annoyed, and has now settled on apathetic.

I'm still excited to hear what's next though.

LogicIsForLosers (August 30, 2006)

Yea, that's more or less the same for me.

niveK82 (August 30, 2006)

ditto

Frankff (August 30, 2006)

Same for me.
Except i'm only mildly curious about what's next.

americanXidiot (August 30, 2006)

yes! finally a album to show everyone what REAL punk is. speaking of real punk i got the new against me album because everone seems to like them on this site. wow BIG MISTAKE these guys are bad. no wonder everyone is against them! how many more bands will try to be political now when the new gd comes out? think it will be worst then the first time?

GlassPipeMurder (August 30, 2006)

vaguely amusing except the satire is off since the new against me! really does suck.

Badger_Legion (August 30, 2006)

You're wrong

Badger_Legion (August 30, 2006)

Oops. I though that said Rise Against. My bad. You're not wrong.

i like amerian idiot a lot. i just fucking hate hate hate how that shits so overplayed (obviously predictably) in the mainstream world. it really takes away from it or something. still its great music.

WorryRock (August 30, 2006)

Green Day.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

Woah. No shit?

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

this never gets old to me

Someone (August 30, 2006)

i for one am excited and enxious to hear what will come. yes, american idiot was overplayed that is not their fault, if anything you are saying it is their fault for writing good songs, a lot of their albums got played out but everyone came back to them. the only thing that i am scared about is the almost "alkaline trio's crimson" effect with this other guitar player i keep seeing. but none the less am awaiting more info.

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

he was offered an actual spot in the band a few years ago and turned it down.

he's basically just a friend who's been touring with them full time since Warning.

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

well now that i have some more info on that then, i for one dont have any worries outside of them just shitting on a cd and selling it to me.(by the way that was me before)ha

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

one thing that can be safely said about them is that they actually haven't ever "shat" out an album. they've all been solid efforts in one way or another.

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

exactly

Someone (August 30, 2006)

The Trio's touring guitarist had nothing to do with Crimson, just as Green Day's had a touring second guitarist for close to 10 years.

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

ummm yes he did read the liner notes. he plays on a bunch of the tracks and when they play live he only, only, plays on the tracks he is recorded on.

randomhero323 (August 30, 2006)

their other guitarist is just for tours, hes been around since like the warning tours i think, not really sure. Hes the guy from pinhead gunpowder, i enjoy them.

enxious?

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

anxious*

TheRhetoric (August 30, 2006)

This shit is so boring... I cannot care about anyhting this band does.

So why did you read the article, then bother to make a post about it? Strange but true, another case for FOX MAULDER!

Stev-o (August 30, 2006)

Fuck Green Day. American Idiot the song was fine, but very annoying. I listened to Dookie the other day.& that's overated too.

JTravolta (August 30, 2006)

Yes everything you don't like MUST be overrated.

JayTee (August 30, 2006)

I'd complain about the overhype of american idiot, but honestly when im in a bar id rather "holiday" plays over the stereo than "save a horse ride a cowboy". FUCK im tired of hearing that song when Im out. By the way I agree with the 900000 people who said make another Insomniac. I got that album when it came out in 8th grade and Im STILL not sick of it. Its insane.

PS - Who remembers the David Letterman performance in '95 when Tre Cool dove into the pool after they played "86" and Dave said "These guys scare the hell out of me".

swank (August 30, 2006)

totally remember that.

rorschach (August 30, 2006)

have it on tape

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

i agree with the begining statement. i've gotten in arguments when blvd. or holiday comes on and people are like "fuck this song", and my response is always that i would rather hear that than 90% of the shit they play on the radio. and yes i remeber that one of my favorite memories of watching a band on tv.

is there truth to this?

Badger_Legion (August 30, 2006)

He was a temporary second guitarist in Rancid in the early 90's. Tim asked him to join as an official member, but Billie refused because he wanted to keep Green Day going. At least that's the story I've always heard.

Yeah, it sucks that he stuck with Green Day which is now a shell of its former self when he could have hopped on the Rancid train and joined a band which is now a shell of.... wait....

Longshot (August 30, 2006)

American Idiot was weird cos it had some great pop songs (American Idiot, Extraordinary Girl, Whatshername), some amazing punk songs (St. Jimmy, Letterbomb) and some realllly shitty and/or dissapointing radio songs (Blvd. Broken Dreams, Holiday). Yeah, it was hyped out the ass by everyone, but it really wasn't that bad. And yeah, Insomniac was a more "punk" record, but there wasn't too much variation of song style. Whatever they release next, I'll probably buy it.

ps. Letterbomb was the best track off of American Idiot.
pps. I actually think Nimrod was their best album. Weird?

AlmostPunkEnough (August 30, 2006)

most of AI was kinda crappy.

'Jesus of Suburbia' is absolutley fucking epic though. and three other songs are really good.

'Wake Me Up...' is one of the lamest crappiest songs ever though.

Problematiclogic (August 30, 2006)

Don't forget "Are we the waiting"...the worst song they have EVER wrote.

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

a lot of people love Nimrod because of the "maturing" sound.

I'm still partial to Kerplunk. It was Dookie but unpolished and more innocent sounding.

AlmostPunkEnough (August 30, 2006)

i love the new Falcon so far, but why the hell did they have to redo two songs? 'Routes We Wander' has lost so much of it's raw emotion.

honestly i would have rathered just nine new songs.

ok, got it out of my system, that's the last time i'll ever complain about the Falcon.

mcgregor107 (August 30, 2006)

i've got over 90 plays on that song, and it's too weird listening to the newer one now..

AlmostPunkEnough (August 30, 2006)

agreed, it's like hollow. maybe it'll grow on me.

i hated the Loved Ones new 'Jane' at first too.

TheYoungInfluential (August 30, 2006)

You're right about that one, but I like how they re-did Scratching Off All the Fleas. I guess I'm just lame.

AlmostPunkEnough (August 30, 2006)

actually i dont mind the new 'Fleas' nearly as much. it's almost as good just in anoher way.

Skanknsmile (August 30, 2006)

does anyone else look at an article like this, read it, look at the comments and go...wow, what a baited trap of ambiguity and inane "punk" bullshit. or am i just to jaded and stoned?

OzmanX (August 30, 2006)

If it's more like Warning then I'll love it.

crackpotdemagogue (August 30, 2006)

If it's more like Insomniac, then i'll love it more.

miniblindbandit (August 30, 2006)

I wonder if there will be another pinhead gunpowder cd.

crackpotdemagogue (August 30, 2006)

Yea, i fucking hope so.

Maybe in a few years, once all the Green Day hype dies down.

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

that would be good. i'm really hoping for a new frustrators record though.

crackpotdemagogue (August 30, 2006)

Awesome.

Grantino (August 30, 2006)

my sister liked american idiot. she doesnt like insomniac or kerplunk!

my sister is an idiot.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

That sucks.
I'm sorry, man.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

So are about a million other people who think Green Day is a "new" band.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

its going to be just like Warning and fail..i love green day but this is going to be a failier

Someone (August 30, 2006)

thats not even a real word (failier)

MrStylson (August 30, 2006)

if Warning was a "failure" then I hope for lots of failures from them. Warning was an excellent album.

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

agreed, there was maybe one or two tracks that i didn't fully get into on that album, but other than that i liked it.

capitalist_pig (August 30, 2006)

I really hope the new Falcon leaks soon...

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

where have you been

Someone (August 30, 2006)

I'm pretty sure there's a yousendit on this very topic

coffinfullofnails (August 30, 2006)

you sir are correct!

donovanjames (August 30, 2006)

Fuck yes this is going to be fucking amazing

Wentz_Equals_Death (August 30, 2006)

they're going to use the songs that were stolen before they made american idiot

Rowwwley (August 30, 2006)

I like green day a lot.

Someone (August 30, 2006)

Ok they arent that bad, but its a shame that they sell 5 millions and other band which make more original music like Boy Sets Fire donts sell a 100 000 ....

sry for my english, and sorry if no one cares

speeds (August 30, 2006)

i care

speeds (August 30, 2006)

just kidding

klonny (August 30, 2006)

Green Day doesn't suck. Hell, American was actually worth listening to as opposed to their old crap. I'll probably download this one.

eddiej06 (August 30, 2006)

thats cool. always down for a new record. what are the estimates on the amount of sales already for their new record? haha

well anyways... CHECK OUT this new band ive been listenin to alot lately- Myspace.com/Onethousandpictures

Someone (August 30, 2006)

fuck green day

Someone (August 30, 2006)

i dont get how people can hate that Green Day are getting played in the mainstream. Surely its better than have to hear all the manufactured shite that gets churned up every single day???? i mean, would you rather have Green Day on the radio, or have the airwaves clogged up with all the American/Pop Idol garbage that some record exec pulled out his ass and dosen't even last a year before they are forgotten about???

I can only hope they make this album, put it out, and shut up. No hype and no bullshit. I could play Insomniac or even Dookie to more than half the people I know and they wouldn't even know it was Green Day. The best thing that could happen is if this album produced no bullshit music videos, and no bullshit fashion. It should make the fans of mainstream music either A.) Cringe or B.) Decide to dig deeper than the radio with their music taste, and find out that there's some pretty awesome stuff going on in the underground. Preferably B..

Someone (September 4, 2006)

hey i agree with the the last qoute green day kicks ass and all those other bands r tone-deaf compared to green day

jason alexander relva

Someone (September 4, 2006)

Okay People, If you dont like Green Day, you wouldnt be on here, mk? i love them, there awesome, now about this whole sell out thing, everyone needs money to survive, and they donate to chairittys alot, so come on, its not all about the money, american idiot was a GREAT ALBUM!!! its how i became a fan, if it wasnt for that i wouldnt be who i am today. and im sure there are others that feel the exact same way..so if your going to cut them down make sure you have good reasoning, and if green day "sucks" then how come there so successfull and have so many fans?

J.A. if you wanna talk to me more about them, email me messiejessie90@msn.com
