It’s one of the biggest monthly music magazines in the UK....but in my experience they give out 4 star reviews fairly readily. But generally trustworthy yes. For comparison they gave RR 4 stars also.

Ok thanks.

Where did you see the post?

On their Instagram - newest post- flashes through several pages of this months magazine and Green Day review (with RR era photo) near the end. Managed to screenshot it but text illegible- can see 4/5 stars though.

I was just thinking, seeing that Oh Yeah replaced Bulletproof Backpack, whether it’s a new song entirely or a new song title, we don’t know. But Green Day has a history of nonsense song titles that have nothing to do with the song. As seen in ¡Cuatro!, Rusty James was originally known as Last Gang in Town, and during the recording sessions, they called it Sodapop Curtis, then finally changed it to Rusty James

I didn’t know this and I love it.

The article is included in an Instagram post of Q Magazine with several pics that keep changing quickly. Managed to take a screenshot, but quality is too low to read anything. When you zoom in, you can see tiny 4 stars at the end of the article though.

How weird that they have this review with a RR pic?

I have a gut feeling that rolling stone will give this album a 3/5 🤨

I bet for a 4/5, not that RS reviews count that much, they gave 4 to RR and 3.5 to AI 😅

I wouldn't trust a review from RS.

If lenght and number of songs is a criteria of rating, after hearing 2 horrible songs, the other 8 should be amazing for having 4/5

The other review had FRA as a song to listen to

4 star review for FOAM in Q magazine this month- managed to see rating from Instagram post but not able to read any of the text....will pick up physical copy this week.

must be good then

honestly they've got me. I went from huge skeptic (borderline anti) to really excited for FOAM in the span of not even a month. 🤩

Actually, most of the reviews for Uno and Dos weren’t that bad, the ones I saw at least.  I think Tre was more mixed but not everything for AI was glowing as @HAPPY ROOTING UNICORN said above.  I never bother with critics really.

It looks like the review is in this Q but the cover story is next issue.

The idea of a "nonsense title" is not necessarily applicable in this case, those are references to the books Rumble Fish and The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton (dealing with gangs) and I read an interview where BJA talked about referencing that book/movie in writing that song.

Sodapop Curtis is the name of Ponyboy's brother I believe.

Uno received quite a lot of mixed reviews tho. RR did much better, and I think it’s fair. The trilogy should be reviewed as a unique opera IMHO. Reviews can age really badly (see RS and the AI review), but aggregating them I think they show some truth :)

Agree... The trilogy is a long album... Maybe dos! Is different, but uno! And Tre! Have the same style.
