Everything in Armatage Shanks.

'I've got a knack for fucking everything up' - best first line ever

My favourite album. I just love how pissed off the whole record sounds. The guitar sounds as if you're beating the living shit out of everything around you and the lyrics are really clever and well done. Favourite song would have to be Bab's Uvula Who? (until next week when I pick another song off this album as my favourite ).

In the first verse of Rusty James I always just assumed it was "Pocket Knives and Rusty James" for some reason, even though that doesn't really make sense. Today I found out it was "Pocket Knives and Rusty Chains"...

For those of you who love Jaded in Chicago, when Billie rants about his big wheel....he does it again in Quebec... except this time it's different at 1:55 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8Ax0liBwd4

I think the weirdest place I've heard a Green Day song would be at the most famous Athens street where a tourist who had been mugged before was singing or better screaming at the top of his not-nice voice, Basket Case, so he could raise money to spend the night at a motel. So, I got close to him, asked him why he was butchering one of my favorite songs and that's how I learned his story.. Strange thing is that I had some money then, and I told him: "alright, I'll give you 20 euros to stop singing." and he said: "thank you! but, can I sing another song in case anybody else gives me money?" and I was like: "yeah, sure! I know some people down the street who are huge AC/DC fans. just start singing Highway To Hell and you'll be at a motel in less than hour!" (I know it sounds kind of bad of me but it wasn't!) I don't know what happened after I told the AC/DC fans to go listen to him, but I hope for the best..

Boulevard of Broken Dreams was written in Joey's bedroom

I recognize the drawing style. It's someone called M. N. Basinger aka cartoonjunkie who runs this blog!

Sebastian Bach ‏@sebastianbach Just had coffee w mike from green day. jeff buckley is singing to me on the radio. Sun is shining. I am in love 11min

Now look what was on 9gag today.

In 86, I thought it was "no return from anal sex" (it was the first time I heard it and didn't know what the title was, so yeah, that's why xD) In "Missing You" I thought it was "Be my jug" instead of "She's my bud"

In Walk Away, I hear "Oh honey you're chloroform" instead of "The harder you're gonna fall".

there is no weird place to play a green day song

The drums on 86 and Armatage Shanks get me everytime

Speaking about Burnout..."I've lived inside this pencil case"

^ A biro drawing made by Heather (www.magpie-eye.tumblr.com) and another one from her site: A photoshop painting! (www.magpie-eye.tumblr.com) a video how she painted it [x] I just stumbled upon her tumblr and I'm fascinated.

From this point forward please give credit to the artist of the artwork. Please and thank you. I'll post my stuff I know it's already been posted, but I am posting again because the drawing is mine

It only counts if he wiped his arse with it before throwing.

I'd love to meet Green Day, and have had dreams about it, but I wouldn't have a clue what to say, and I don't just want to walk up and say how bout the weather, Y'know?

i enjoy a lot playing Stuart and the ave in the bass *-* im in love with the bass of this album. Mike made a really good job (as always, of course but in insomniac... fucking rocks!)

aw. poor insomniac needs some love

Oh man, this is my favorite album My favorite songs are here: No Pride and 86, I don't know, that album is full of good lyrics, good drums, bass to listen and love. My favorite lines (a few of them) of the album: "I perfected the science of the idiot" (Armatage Shanks) "Mom and Dad don't look so hot these days, But my future's looking good" (Brat) "I'm not part of your elite, I'm just alright" (Stuck With Me) "Wish in one hand shit in the other, And see which one gets filled first" (Geek Stin Breath) "Honor's gonna knock you down, Before your chance to stand up and fight" (No Pride) "No culture's worth a stream of piss, Or a bullet in my face" (No Pride) "My fuse is short and my blood pressure is high" (Bab's Uvula Who?) "Did you lose something the last time you were here?" (86) "There's no return to 86" (86) "Ready for a cheap escape, On the brink of self destruction" (Panic Song) "The world is a sick machine, breeding a mass of shit" (Panic Song) "Destiny is dead, in the hands of bad luck" (Stuart and The Ave) "I'm having trouble trying to sleep" (Brain Stew) "My mind is set on overdrive" (Brain Stew) "There is no progress, evolution killed it all" (Jaded) "Is it salvation? Or an escape from discontent?" (Westbound Sign) "But having the time of his life, hating every minute of his existance" (Tight Wad Hill) "I'm a smart ass but I'm playing dumb" (Walking Contradiction) "Control the chaos behind a gun" (Walking Contradiction) "Losers winning big on the lottery" (Walking Contradiction) "I have no belief, but I believe, I'm a walking contradiction" (Walking Contradiction)

I simply adore Insomniac, it's my favourite Green Day album - both musically and lyrically, and also one of my all-time top albums I don't know exactly what it is about it that makes me love it so, and I remember when I first bought it I wasn't so keen on the album, oh but it grew on me. I find it's often the things you can't quite place why you like them, that you love the most (if that makes any sense!). Definitely the case with Insomniac Also one of my go-to albums for when I need comforting....It's always been the perfect album for when I'm a little bit low and frustrated with life. Or just pissed off.
