yeah cause it's not a real speaking voice! He thinks if he's nasally and bulges his eyes out while raising his hands it proves his point more or something lol It's just really unnecessary 

Anthony Fantano is another one, trying to always speak like he's some intellect. Dude you're an angry music nerd just lay it down why you don't like something stop being a politician about it

Sorry I'm just angry my rant about critics is over 

..... for now

and HORRIBLE camera angles...

Depends on your definition of “new sounds”, I suppose. For me, the song FOAMF doesn’t really have a new sound except for the falsetto. And Billie’s feverish letter sounds like it comes straight outta 2012 – a “postcard from the past”, if you will. Apocalyptical partying, dancing and not giving a fuck sounds kind of familiar to me. So yes, we’ve only just heard one song so far and we don’t know how the others will sound like. But the general approach of the new record, the general topic and the “fuck you”-vibe don’t feel new or innovative to me, and I guess I had kind of hoped that they had moved beyond this point by now

I kind of agree and disagree. There are definitely new sounds here, but they're very subtle. Like the drums sound like they've been sample replaced, and there are some subtle background sounds to add weight to the first best of each chorus, as well as effects automation on Billie's vocals. It all adds up to a much more contemporary sounding Green Day. But even with that, the productions nothing groundbreaking so far.

It's no rush :P

when you say that it will stay at the bottom of my priority list for eternity.  That list seems to only grow lately... the neverending game of catch up. 

God, I miss being in school procrastinating writing an essay by doing stuff on the sites.

At least fantano has a decent range of music that he reviews, and is generally pretty knowledgeable.

Well he is a music nerd. He listens to enough music to atleast understand some basics. Even his review of Green Day is still quite high based on the average scores he typically dishes out. However, he typically avoids doing reviews on really great albums for the sake of being a contrarian. For example, he chose to review In Utero rather than Nevermind. If I was a reviewer I'd review every Nirvana album not pick and choose a specific one. Even with Green Day he chose to review Rev Rad but didn't bother with Dookie or Insomniac. 

I'm a musician so I guess I expect someone to go into more depth when criticizing an album. I used to do a little sequence with my band members where I'd criticize bands, songs or albums and actually play the part and break it down from a musical perspective to back up my argument.

Back on TRACK (literally!) people!  

Track list!  Track list!  

We've got "Art of the Deal with the Devil"

"Junkies on a High"

"Sugar Youth"

"Meet me on the Roof"  

"Father of All..."

"Bullet Proof Back Pack"

We need those other 4 song titles and we need them NNNNOOOOOWWWW.

"Hella Mega" and "Bratwurst" were rumored .    Were there any more rumored song titles?   

I can make some new ones if we don't have any more.  

 

Oh no....I just had a thought about Billie Joe getting drunk and ranting about Fall Out Boy and Weezer.   Particularly Fall Out Boy.   ANYWAY.   back on TRACK!

In the Kerrang interview Billie said he was going to title a song "Everyone Has a Plan Until They Get Punched In The Face", but he scrapped it. 

Genuinely love that as a song title haha.  

Should have been the Album Title.  

Thanks for the quote, reactions are garbage.

i wish i could go back and read message boards the day american idiot came out. the day of the song and then day of the album release. that would be a trip 

Yeah I'm also interested in this. 

Anyway, with the weird song titles, I'm very interested in hearing what they are about. "Bulletproof Backpack" has a fun sound to it, but I wonder if it'll be about school shootings or something. Song titles have a tongue-in-cheek vibe to them.

I remember browsing other forums at the time (not GDC in particular) and a few people being a bit wary of the political-ness of it all as well as their sound being more mainstream.

That’s great perspective. You know what’s also funny? With all the love/ mixed/ hate reactions here, it’s just a pleasure to have the interaction and see what everyone else is feeling. I am loving the song, but I’m also enjoying the other reactions as well, as they’re generally coming from a place I can relate to in thought and spirit. 

When AI came out, I was a longtime fan but we didn’t have anything like this- just perhaps greenday.net (Jason Holmes if anyone remembers)? None of my friends were into Green Day so I had no one to talk to or enjoy the moment with. I felt like I was living that huge moment myself, calling radio stations for info, and pissing my family and friends off by being excited about something they had no interest in. 

There are many reasons why I don’t like forums and large parts of the internet in general. But it’s really enjoyable to be able to connect with you all about what’s going on right now. I didn’t have that for AI, Warning, Insomniac, etc. and despite how little I like social media... well, it’s just fun to share this with you all  

 

hell yeah brother i’m jealous. i would love to be the only one out of my friend group giving a shit about that album, i would’ve driven around all damn day listening to it from front to back. 

id kill to hear all those songs for the first time

Based off the other song titles I'll predict a few:

- Motown Jam

- Panic Mind

- Killjoy

-Patronize

- High Times

- Sweet Feelings

- Summertime Lovin (Lovin in the summer time)

I heard there's a bonus track Goodbye Warner (Reprise) 

Underrated comment, it’s funny because they were with Warner/Reprise and it being a reprise track.
