Popular Post Im.a.basket.case Posted September 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 12, 2019 Father of All is a great banger, crank this is up to 11 with getting the lyrics down...so satisfied.. Hope the rest of the album follows with high energy jams, thank you Green Day for keeping punk rock alive! 🤘🙌 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefano Bras Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Kinda surprised that in all photo shoots including the frontmans (Spotify for example) Pete Wentz is the one representing FOB. I don't know them thaaat much, I enjoy their older music and some of the new, but I always saw Patrick as the frontman, he's the vocalist after all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick has always been a behind the lines frontman. It’s a quite unique setup, but Pete always took care of these sort of stuff for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This cover continues to confuse me. A unicorn drawn in Paint is one thing, but then when different band members start posting different album covers I start to question things. Can someone please post a side by side comparison between Jason White’s Unicorn and the one posted by the other guys? But yeah one big difference I noticed that in Jason White’s post, the feet are round, and for the other guys, the feet are square Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since CDs and records are wrapped in plastic in the stores, I can see the unicorn being on the plastic, so that when you take the plastic off, you have the full uncensored title! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope not! The unicorn is part of the artwork and I'd prefer it on the cover. Besides I ordered the explicit one so I need at least copy with the unicorn lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwise Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 The explicit version of the cover is lame af imo. The unicorn is essential to what they're trying to do here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then Billie Joe took one look at the painters Magnum Opus and said "No. I wanted shit." 4 hours ago, GDFan2019 said: Since CDs and records are wrapped in plastic in the stores, I can see the unicorn being on the plastic, so that when you take the plastic off, you have the full uncensored title! Is the album parental advisory and if so will there be edited versions? That makes it confusing when there are censored covers and uncensored covers. Somebody may want the uncensored cover but edited lyrics. Haha. I'm dead. And I'm so happy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I made a ridiculous track list but erased it. If Bratwurst is a sequel to Brat will you Nimrod drinkers chug another copy? Is there a story to the cover? Is there a connection to American Idiot? Will we find out the unicorns name? Will he he the bands new mascot? Is he related to Jesus or Whatshername or Tunny? This is American Idiot 2. They just don't want to say that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 9 hours ago, J a c said: Compared to what? I’m sincerely asking since I don’t know where to find comparable data about Oh Love, Bang bang or any other GD single. The only constant for lead singles that we could use is possibly first week album sales but even then the market size has decreased so much so if they were to move 90,000 units (with album equivalents) and 75,000 of them were physical copies that would be a success for them lol I don't think that will be happening this time Another way to judge could be how they charted vs other singles but I never cared much for the charts For me YouTube views don't mean much. There's a dislike button on youtube which means people who hate it are watching it. Terrible things can get views. Psy (the herpes of music) is a perfect example of that.

Yes, I agree that we can start to do some comparison after the first week. At least Billboard is out, 48h seems way too little time. But I also agree that we have to consider the market changing fast (and the rock music room in it shrinking), and in this case also the different album release strategy.
