New Song: "Here Comes the Shock"

Recommended Posts

Not spectacular, but It’s certainly fun. Gets better with more listens. If this was a B-Side to one of the AI or 21CB singles, It’d certainly be viewed more favorably.

Got a little theory about this one:

Instrumentally it's decent, there's some interesting guitar effects, and we hear Tre at the end of the song. What if rather than a FOAMF b-side this is a reject off 2020pt2, and they just quickly laid down some new generic lyrics that were less Network-y to give them something to release for the NHL contract? 

Just a thought. I'd say I'm disappointed, but I can't really complain considering the Network record was as good as it was. Definitely begs the question of why they've been saving all of their best material for the side projects.

Edit -- also the guitar at the intro sounds a bit like Theory of Reality

this song is epicgeneric. shallow lyrics.

i hope GD is saving the best songs for the next record, 

because MM2020pt2 is better than this and better than FOAM. 

"we got the creatures baby and we got no place to go" i hope he is refering to the unreleased songs...

and "you are doing it fucking wrong" at the end meaning this is not what we are really doing. 

 

meh. :(

Green Day don't want to give the NHL a million dollar song.    It could mare the reputation of what could potentially be a big hit.    Imagine if any of the American Idiot singles were first used to promote a sporting event.    It would possibly take something away.   

That, and it may be Green Day subconsciously trying to make something that is a good fit for Hockey Fans, or for the game in general.   It does kind of have some of the same qualities as Fire Ready Aim, but I like this one better.    The lyrics, while filled with the buzziest of buzz words - are more complex than all that mess about dogs eating bones and liars.

I am digging it.

I don't get how Billie can release the Longshot album and the Network with such great, diverse songs and then release all this shallow stuff under the Green Day name. I'm wondering if the GD label is just too much for them and not fun anymore. Happened to the Beatles. Sometimes the GD brand seems like a cage for them.

Do you mean ArE gReEn DaY dOnE? 😂

I mean atleast the unreleased music video for whatsername had some sort of visual style.... at least it was trying to look like something. But this.... this "music video" is the worst i've ever seen. 

*pants* 

 

sorry i need to calm down. Like hopelessly watching a new Spongebob episode.... lets hope it gets better.

Well now she's the one that's got that beat
She's the woman with the flyin' feet
She's the one that walks around the store
She's the one that gets more more more

Be-bop-a-Lula she's my baby
Be-bop-a-Lula I don't mean maybe
Be-bop-a-Lula she's my baby doll
My baby doll, my baby doll
Let's rock again, now!

Well be-bop-a-Lula she's my baby

I didn't watch the video because I was already put off before even starting it. Just switched tabs and listened to the song. This is very subpar. I know these boys can do better. :(

This is a song about freedom.  

Also, Annie Get Your Gun is a broadway musical and more.   

Lots of references to seemingly random things.    But if we are smart enough, and think hard enough, we can crack this donut.

aha i feel like i saw this long ago and thought it was fake. If I saw this in 05 as the 12 year old kid I was, I would have probably thought it was cool, but if I was raised on Dookie I probably wouldn't.

That's how I feel about this new video....but I don't even think 12 year old me would think this one was cool. And at least Whastername is a great song.
