Morse Code Guy Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 25 minutes ago, That Dude said: New album should sound like nothing they've done before. Every album of their sounds different from all the other albums they do. Given the Genre, I’m afraid that they might run out of options soon. Although I’m still looking forward for one track similar to “Brutal Love”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 They're not out of options. In fact there's a lot of directions that ended at a dead end. Little Girl? Peacemaker? Brutal Love? Kill The DJ? They could take any of this a step further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian's Inferno! Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I feel like 21CB was their last unique album. Not that the trilogy or RevRad are bad but they seem to just sound like a combination of all their previous work whereas 21CB, while it was a rock opera and concept album like AI, was much different in sound than any of their other albums at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to know what RevRad might have sounded like with the right (or any) producer to suggest things and make improvements. They were so close, but it sounds like a self produced album. The problem is you can get so enamored with your own ideas that you just say, “sounds good to me.” Butch Walker may scare some people, but the news excited me because it means we at least will get a GD album that will likely sound like no other.

I am a bit nervous about them doing something different but I have faith in them pulling off whatever sounds they try. And if they do pull off some new sounds, it will likely be one of their best albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W_FInkThePlatypusHunter Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 IMO, it’d be cool if Green Day would do what Weezer’s been doing the last couple years with throwbacks/covers like EWBAYITE/Teal Album/etc. That being said, I think they know they could but choose not to, and I can’t really blame them. I liked RevRad, but I could take an album closer to Nimrod/Warning any day. There’s bits of the Trilogy that seem like lost tracks from those eras to me, personally.

The Bellie Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Seriously, all the albums are so good. I don't get why always say "if... if..." towards the past. RevRad is so cool. Not everything has to be over the top all the time Just keep making stuff and look forward! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did use a couple of Epiphone LP juniors instead of his regular Gibson Lp juniors on Rev Rad tour. Otherwise, $5000 in a pool of water. If i had that guitar, I wouldn’t even let anyone else play it, let alone touch it. By the way, it’s gonna be July. Oh love was released on 16th July. Bang Bang on 11th August. So if it’s a fall album, then we should get something till like, 15th August? And if it’s gonna drop in September, Like Uno, then After 15th July? Wasn’t Oh Love announced just the week before it came out? 1 hour ago, pacejunkie punk said: Which shows you how important a producer is.

Libertine Angel Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I've always found the songs of RevRad underwhelming (except Bang Bang, bloody great track) but can't fault the production myself. If having a new producer is what it takes to push them into more interesting musical directions then go for it, but as far as the actual sound goes I think they have a decent handle on that themselves.

The Bellie Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Actually, it's a pretty good ending, whoever came out with it. Whenever I hear that song on shuffle it disturbs me a little cause I don't want to hear anything else than Still Breathing right after Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian's Inferno! Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I actually think the BOTW into Still Breathing transition is the worst transition they've done tbh I love the way that other songs segue into each other like Brain Stew/Jaded, LOTAG/Murder City, Holiday/BOBD, Christian's Inferno/LNOE. But this one? Nah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything Will be Alright in the End type album - YES! A Green Day covers album - oh my goodness YES YES YES!! Green Day always kill it when covering songs they enjoy! But when I saw "Weezer" and "lately" in the same sentence, I almost immediately thought "NO NO NO NO!!!!!" Daydream and Black Album have some of THE WORST MUSIC I'VE EVER HEARD EVER on them, and Weezer are ramping up to release a THIRD AND FOURTH album this year. If Green Day couldn't sell a Trilogy, a Weezer quadrilogy is just the worst possible thing that could happen. As much as I clamor for new music, Weezer are simply doing too much. Covers, Black Album, Van Weezer and OK HUMAN. SAVE SOMETHING FOR THE 20S DANG IT! As for Butch Walker working with Green Day this time around, he's made some good music AND produced some albums I enjoyed. Select albums by Bowling for Soup, Avril Lavigne and Fall Out Boy were fun listens. He certainly likes the most light-hearted side of punk rock, that's for sure. Nothing wrong with that. I like my punk a bit poppy and my pop a bit punky, that's why I'm here. What if the new album had more producers? Not a bunch, that's lame. But a some songs self produced, a some by Butch and a some by Rob Cavallo, because he's the master at this game. Green Day works on the front of the album / Butch in the middle / Rob on the end.

There were tracks I liked off both of those albums, then again I’m not exactly a Weezer purist. I don’t mind the pop sound every once in awhile. I don’t think Green Day should go full pop album but I’ll entertain whatever they release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
