I would like to take a moment just to say that whoever things Dos is terrible has to be a dumb person. I know that's rude, but sadly, it's true. Lazy Bones, Stray Heart, Lady Cobra, Stop When The Red Lights Flash, and Amy are some of the best songs on the entire trilogy. I even like Fuck Time. I'm so happy we got a studio version of that song. I agree it would have been better as a FBHT song, but I still love it. Because of the aforementioned songs, Dos is easily the best album of the trilogy. All those songs have a much better rock n roll vibe and beat to them than anything else in the trilogy (with a couple exceptions), and I love that Green Day way more than the generic Green Day with songs like Oh Love. Come on, this is an amazing song. I hope to see it live.

I love how you say 'least best', instead of 'worst'

Shenanigans don't count it's not an album may as well include ISH as well... Plus creditability is thrown out the window as soon as you put god awful Sweet Children ahead of 21st...

Stupid hipster.

i'm sorry, i have to do a list 1. american idiot 2. insomniac 3. nimrod 4. 21st century breakdown 5. dookie 6. shenanigans 7. warning and the rest i really do not care or know enough about to put in a list. it's honestly not that i think they're that bad, i just can't get into them enough to hear them subjectively and form a positive opinion. i could probably find it in me to enjoy the trilogy; i honestly just would rather do other things with my time

I think Dos is cohesive. It explores the idea of indulging in some mid life crisis partying and wildness, with a bit of reflection about it/agonizing over it in between, and then the bad consequences of taking things too far at the end. And it has a retro/garagy sound tying it together musically.

Y'know, it'd be really fantastic if one of these days you actually gave us a reason as to why's that's true that doesn't rely on "true fan" nonsense.

personally I classify Steven's so called consistency as an acute case of stubborness and ignorance.

If there's one thing I can appreciate its consistency. Seagul has that, if nothing else.

Nimrod is the best, everyone go home.

I want this meme to sweep the internet, people.

I'd say it just means he's reckless. Metaphors.

I'll never get over some of the things I've read on this page.

Tom is going to rip you a new one.

I think it's because the sound of the song sounds a lot more like Dos than Drama Queen does. That song would have been so out of place on Dos.

I still don't get why Stray Heart is on Dos, isn't the song pretty much about cheating on someone and wishing you could have them back. Much better on Tre.

I'll take respectful-of-women Billie over let's-have-sex-with-everything-that-moves Billie, but to each his/her own.

Dos really is pretty cohesive though. More so than Uno or Tre IMO.

That's true of the entire trilogy. Me liking Dos is all because I like more songs on there than the other albums. Each has their own few gems. I'd rather have several songs I really like rather than 12 cohesive songs that I think are mostly mediocre.

It says alienation in the booklet. I think it's meant to be heard both ways though, so there's a double meaning where he's saying the US a nation where people feel alienated and also that it can be a weird, "alien" nation.

It just wouldn't be right to call any of those fabulous albums "worst"

You guys wank when you're angry?

Also, seeing you rank the Trilogy above AI, Insomniac and Warning breaks my heart so much I think I saw shrapnel come out of my chest.

I'm sorry, Adam is gone so someone had to be that guy.

Stop whinging and go have a wank.

Sorry that I don't conform to your standards, but I wouldn't do that. that's not specific enough. they are different albums, from different sessions. The official WhiteTim emoticon, ready to go. Oh, and I'll throw in a few of these

Hey you're the official spokesperson for WhiteTim no moonlighting allowed Tom

Not Anyone: Official Spokesperson For Certified Nimrod.

I like that reason better. I'll go with that.

It's more likely he was referring to the fact you split them into Slappy and 39/Smooth rather than just going with the first album.

I didn't like it, though. I really think over half the songs are just ballads that shouldn't be there. Others just failed attempts at pop songs. I thought the same thing about Tré, but I didn't think they were "failed attempts". I just couldn't stand the Forgotten. Oh, and I LOVE the iTunes bonus tracks for 21CB. (Dem covers tho)

You can never, ever put 21st breakdown at the bottom

I'm curious too, been wondering since I saw the thread. Maybe it was meant to be "niche"? This is an ad for Shenanigans from the July 06th 2002 issue of Kerrang!

You guys should include names on your posts. Not everyone may know who the other celebrities are.

Dat ass.
