Welcome back girls!

I'VE BEEN THIRSTING OVER BILLIE AND I'VE BEEN DYING TO ANNOUNCE IT TO THIS THREAD!!!!!!! LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL MAN! BILLIE SHOULD BE ARRESTED! LOOKING THIS GOOD IS ILLEGAL! DEAD! (sorry this has been pent up for like 2 days and I needed to get it out)

They seem to be done with The Network stuff on the socials and that’s sad. Seems too quick, I was hoping for maybe some mainstream promotion and more of a push with the merch. This was such an underground release but the album is too good

Our country‘s biggest radio station played Billie Joe‘s Kids in America already more often than all the FOAM songs together 😅 but I‘m really glad that No Fun Mondays also gets recognition in Europe!

Ft. two random dudes.

^ Totally support the compact discs bit! I was a big fan of casettes but that ended when my GD tape got ruined for NO reason. (Unless listening to it too much was the reason). Been a fan of cds since then.

That's exactly why that song is amazing. It's perfection. It's so terrible that it's amazing. That song is a masterpiece. Popper Punk is just bad. It sounds like FOAMF having rough sex with a drunk Warning. The vocals are annoying, not enough synth for it to be redeemable, that accent is frustrating... And it goes on forever. I'm sure that Satan uses that song to torture his victims in hell.

It kinda worked for me though. I just got back last night from seeing my bestie for a few days. Finally got to meet my niece who was born in April and get some much needed snuggles from my nephew.

Phew, thought we were going to have to get through Christmas with a raging thirst....... 😍😍😍 It is taken from a genuine pic though, sure somebody has the original.

Totally photoshopped. Look at the edge of Billie’s face & hair. Hi!!!!!

How is the kid so grown up???

I haven't been able to get Theory of Reality out of my head for a solid week. Such a classic GD jamwich.

And very welcome too 😘

And me.

I'm in the UK and mine arrived yesterday. Cover looks like it's supposed to glow in the dark but sadly doesn't

Kevin posted this old vid and man, can he send me a personal xmas greeting? https://www.instagram.com/p/CJJVepoBozF/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

😱 Jesus Christ, that looks like a cross between Dr. Evil and Seth Everman. I can never unsee that. *hides in the corner with a cross and holy water*

Good review, the album is not bad at all but don't have a direction defined, is a truly mix of random songs.

I received my email saying that my LP has been shipped from the UK store. There's no indication of when it'll be delivered (I'm in Canada so 9-14 days), but hopefully I can ring in the new year with another LP in my collection.

Jamwich....I like this

Didn't have time for a review, but I did a brief write up of Money Money 2020 Part 2 for my year end list: Album No One Expected Even Though We Were Warned: Money Money 2020 Part II: We Told Ya So! – The Network The Network would be my favorite Green Day side project if they were the one’s behind it. But they’re not, so we don’t need to question it. The Network tried to warn us of the prophecy, but we didn’t listen. In a move no one could predict, the mysterious masked men returned this year. When you think about it, it makes sense. It’s in their 2003 album’s name: Money Money 2020. Clearly, they were telling us the year of their return. Still, I wasn’t expecting this. Filled with their offbeat humor, conspiracy theories, references to COVID, and time travel it’s a wonderfully weird album. Anything goes here. Songs insulting Round Earthers and asphyxia dependency? Yup. Fast and furious punk songs that are ripped from a Green Day album? Sure. Oddly seductive tracks about drugs and why Ivankkka is a Nazi? Why not? Instead of sticking with their new wave style, The Network (who aren’t Green Day) expand their sound for a diverse record. “Degenerate” is the funky, seductive anthem Green Day wanted “Father of All” to be and “Jerry Falwell’s Pool Party” has a slinky groove with a killer swagger. It also has a play on Green Day’s “Kill the DJ” lyrics. Guess they really do hate them. “The Art Of the Deal With the Devil” is sexier than it has any right to be. With Fink’s breathy singing and the song’s mellowed, hushed tones it’s an album highlight. Still, their new wave, synth sound isn’t abandoned. That classic Network vibe is what drives songs like “The Stranger,” “Time Capsule,” and “Heard Immunity.” Of course, with 25 songs, there’s bound to be filler. “Amnesia Vagabond” and “Hey Elon” are fine but don’t stand on their own outside the album. “That’s How They Get You” is the biggest disappointment. Three minutes of a looping electronic beat and awful autotune. But at least these songs don’t make the album drag. Oddly enough, a lot of the songs have the same issue as Father of All Motherfuckers: they’re too short. “Fentanyl” and “Carolina’s Ultimate Netflix Tweet” ends abruptly just as the songs are hitting that sweet spot. “Pizzagate” never really gets the chance to start clocking in at 47 seconds and “Theory of Reality” leaves you unsatisfied. Despite this, Money Money 2020 Part II is a blast. It’s a strange album for a strange year. Some songs make you laugh, others make you mosh, and some may even turn you on. It’s a good time all around. You can tell the boys really had fun making it. With an album this strong Green Day should watch out. The Network are coming for their rock n roll throne. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

There is a period between the last promotion of one album and the recording or knowledge of recording of the next. This is one thing I wish wasn't mysterious. With Rev Rad we got the title track as a single and then just one big Elipsis Era for a while. Bands need to make an announcent saying "Hey guys, this era is coming to an end. But we are looking forward to rocking out with you guys again soon, so follow us to see what we've got in store for Chapter X of our story. I really need to be in charge of the music industry. Compact Discs would never die and everything would be awesome as bleep.

What is this from? Never seen it before but someone uploaded this and another AI studio video recently.
