Popular Post Fuzz Posted February 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2015 The Forgotten is a good summary of the Trilogy as a whole. Overly long, doesn't really go anywhere, shit lyrics, and tries to play off the success of previous hits whilst missing the factors that made those hits so good. You really just like to shit on the trilogy any chance you get to. You're such a negative annoying fuck. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Guys, help me out here. What songs were written before the writing of the album they're on even start? For example, Haushinka was written years before Nimrod came out. That kind of thing. So far I've got: Armatage Shanks (Written the day before Dookie came out) Too Much Too Soon (Cigarettes and Valentines song) Haushinka (Dookie demo song) Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) Who Wrote Holden Caulfield? may have been as it was performed at a 39/Smooth era gig. J.A.R. (Dookie demo song) One For the Razorbacks and Words I Might Have Ate might have been. In the 1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours Deluxe Version on iTunes there are live versions for these songs. What I don't know is the DATE in which this occurred. Geek Stink Breath (Performed in Jaded in Chicago as a soundcheck) Welcome to Paradise (Dookie version, lel,) I'm sure there's LOADS I missed. If you have anything to add or whatnot or any corrections, please let me know. If I remember correctly Billie wrote When It's Time when he was about 17.

Iva Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 The being obnoxious quote is from 20 years ago. O_o Rolling Stone, January 25th 1995. I learnt the word "obnoxious" from that article as a kid, as well as "bliss", "benefit", "bra", "solemn" and a couple of others. Still didn't get this in HQ, btw, sorry to whoever is waiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give_Me_Novacaine90 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Now with 27 Alternative Songs entries, the Offspring and R.E.M. are tied for sixth place among acts with the most visits since the chart began in 1988. U2 leads with 41, followed by Pearl Jam (38), Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers (30 each) and Foo Fighters (29). http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/6487346/hozier-offspring-elle-king-rock-charts Being a conservative punk Billie Joe Armstrong put it this way: “a guy walks up to me and asks ‘What’s Punk?’ So I kick over a garbage can and say ‘That’s punk!’ So he kicks over a garbage can and says ‘That’s punk?’ and I say ‘No, that’s trendy!’” http://princearthurherald.com/en/culture-2/being-a-conservative-punk-881 Green Day mentioned here http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/arts/miranda/la-et-cam-datebook-jmw-turners-late-work-african-portraiture-lowbrow-pinups-20150225-column.html#page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We listened to bands like Blink-182, Sum 41 and Green Day, the kind of bands that you get introduced to as you start to pick up guitars and drums. Then we started getting more into older punk bands, and at that point we became more of a garage rock band, with a more old-school sound. That was when we changed our name to Violet Bones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertrose Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The Top Ten Music Albums of the 1990s Number Three: Dookie by Green Day. Released in 1994, Dookie was Green Day’s third overall release and major label debut that sprung them to the top of the charts. The album, featuring hits like “Longview,” “Basket Case,” “Pulling Teeth” and “When I Come Around,” sold over 10 million copies in the United States alone. Supposedly the entire album was recorded in a mere three weeks, yet it was enough time to make the record a hit, winning Green Day a Grammy for Best Alternative Album. Thought to have revived punk-rock at a time when angst and grunge were at the forefront, this album gave young kids and teenagers something to relate to, with lyrics involving teenage boredom, getting stoned, masturbation, unemployment, defying your parents and the suburban wasteland. http://fdrmx.com/top-ten-music-albums-1990s-part-one/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iva Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 No BloodSugar? Really? WTF. I mean, Dookie is better because it's a diarrhea of pure sincerity as opposed to machoism and trendy statements, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertrose Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Green Day mentioned: Rumor Mill: Who Will Perform at Outside Lands 2015? Outside Lands is due for another local headliner after Metallica’s hometown gig back in 2012. Our bets are on Santana or a potential one-off performance from Green Day. Carlos Santana has had a busy year with the release of his excellent new memoir and U.S. and international gigs with Santana. With a string of East Coast dates starting Aug. 14, there’s an outside chance he will be at Outside Lands. It’s been quite in Green Day’s camp lately, but it’s likely the trio would rally for a big Bay Area gig. http://www.sfstation.com/2015/02/27/rumor-mill-who-will-on-the-outside-lands-2015-lineup/ A Grammy win isn’t what it used to be In 2005, Green Day’s American Idiot rose one spot to No. 2 and saw a 49 percent sales spike, with 202,000 albums sold. http://www.vox.com/2015/2/7/7993527/grammy-winners-performance 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
