After a few albums Muse decided it wanted to be Queen. And now it's gone over, even further, to the dark side (ie: Green Day). Okay, the band doesn't sound like Green Day, at least there isn't that horrible affected punk-kid buzz to the vocals, as if the singer is permanently lit up by his own importance...

25 worst original names of famous bands

16. Sweet Children started playing local shows near San Francisco in 1986, when the band members were only 14. It didn’t take too long to realize that being “sweet” wasn’t terribly punk rock. And, they wanted to avoid getting confused with another California band, Sweet Baby. Their current name refers to a day spent smoking marijuana — Green Day.

The most ridiculous, sweary on-stage rants of all time

Billie Joe Armstrong - I Heart Radio Music Festival: When Green Day had their set cut in half so Usher could have more time, Billie Joe Armstrong became apoplectic. "Give me a fucking break, one minute left. I've been around since fucking 1988, and you're gonna give me one fucking minute. I'm not fucking Justin Bieber you motherfuckers. Oh now I've got nothing left. Let me show you what one minute fucking means." He then proceeded to smash his guitar to bits. The real winner here though is this YouTube commenter: "I guess they didn't have the time to listen to him whine."

25 Worst Original Names of Famous Bands

Final name: Green Day

When Green Day took the stage at Cleveland's House of Blues days before their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year, everyone but the most hardcore fans in attendance were confused by the name on their drum riser: Sweet Children. The faithful knew this was Green Day's original moniker, and they were using it again for one night only as a celebration of their earliest days. Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt started playing local shows around the Bay Area as Sweet Children in 1986 when they were just 14 years old. They gained a tiny following and even got signed to Lookout! Records under that name, but they switched it to Green Day soon afterwards to avoid confusion with fellow California rock outfit Sweet Baby – and perhaps because being "sweet" ain't so punk rock, even if it's meant ironically. They took their new name from one of their early songs, which refers to a day when not much is done outside of smoking marijuana. Much more punk rock.

History records the gentleman who knows himself to his black eyeliner to create more masculinity from the Pharaoh!

And not escape the whirlpool of fashion trends, the types of male eyeliner is also extremely diverse: classical slender, edging to dramatic or prolonged tail ..

Billy Joe's eye contour Armstrong style and personality young punk. Haunting eyes as smoke over the border.

The transition that Green Day experienced from their much more serious endeavor Warning (2000) that gave them the kick-start to ramp up production of rock operas and inspired alternative rock records no doubt lost them the contingent of fans that had stayed true even after many had given up on them following Dookie's major label debut in 1994.

Andrej Sevsek Organizer of ' punk rock holiday festival' which takes place every year in Slovenia, he said to BurnYourEars Webzine. " the festival this year should have 5.000 entrances, and probably will also be the first year in which there will be a sold out. But we also want to book a few band bigger. But there are some conditions to be met, such as the lack of transenne. I would not have no problem to play the Green Day provided that are involved on our own terms ".

While sitting at Roma’s Italian Restaurant with his mother one day, another song played on the radio by Green Day called “Good Riddance” (Time Of Your Life). Inspired by the sounds of the simple acoustic melody, he went home later that day and spent all night learning that song. It wasn’t long after that he began writing songs of his own. http://www.yourgv.com/lifestyles/arts_and_entertainment/article_6da6c01c-35ed-11e5-8f1c-1b56a038c7ab.html

10 lost albums we would like to hear "Cigarettes And Valentines" http://www.tenhomaisdiscosqueamigos.com/2015/07/29/10-discos-perdidos-que-gostariamos-de-ouvir/

In 2003, Green Day began work on Warning successor, and even complete a good number of tracks before the masters were stolen from the studio.It is estimated that 20 songs have already been recorded and the album would be called Cigarettes and Valentines, but was never released.That's because the trio decided instead to re-record the songs, embark on a completely different approach to their next album, a rock opera American Idiot.The band members said the songs were fast and aimed to punk, like Insomniac, but the theft of the masters was like a "blessing in disguise", as they did not reveal the full potential of the band.The album's title track was released on the live album Awesome As Fuck, and another song, "Olivia" was performed during the tour of 21st Century Breakdown. Meanwhile one side B of single "American Idiot," "Too Much Too Soon", would also be of Cigarettes sessions.

$2.49M for a 2,100 sq foot house.  I guess I won't be moving to Newport anytime soon.  And Billie took a loss on it.

Interview: Ben and Fil of Neck Deep  

How would you say the pop punk scene and music scene in general is different in the U.K. than it is here [in the U.S.]?

F: There was just never one of the big boys. There was never a New Found or a Blink or a Green Day coming from the U.K.

What influenced you to get into pop punk in general?

B: I was shown it from quite a young age. I had it kinda given to me from older brothers and things like that. I remember being shown “Dookie” [by Green Day] for the first time as a kid.
