And now we're heading into the holiday season, Thanksgiving is a week from this Thursday!!!!! I can see them posting a few more teasers in the next month or so, because December 19th will be the 1 year anniversary of the first teaser. At midnight on New Year's, I could see them posting a video of the 1972 ball drop, pretty clever, eh? Then give it maybe a week or 2 after the Nimrod release, the floodgates could be opened, giving us everything we need to know about 1972!!! Single in February perhaps? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your deffo a 'the glass is half full' person. It's infectious. After two major highs with Dookie & AI, is 1972 the next big step up to world domination, again.? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 What do we think the album cover will look like? Right now, my imagination isn't running away on an 8th avenue serenade (the irony of that sentence!) so I'm thinking subtly. medium-light blue background with orange and tan stripes, and a big white goofy font that says "1972" hype sticker promoting two songs "The Wipe Out Dance" and "Apocalypse Yesterday" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are people still actually reassessing quality of software amps in 2022? Or due to ignorance misunderstanding software amps with bad guitar sounds in general? Jesus, I'm amazed that there's still so much misapprehension about this topic.. Or were you aluding that FOAM didn't sell well because they used software amps? 😳 Because that's even more bizzare, and just proves how in most cases people don't even have a clue about this stuff and are biased by good old "analog is better" crap. There are no rules, there's no better option. It all depends on a situation, but mostly on experience in music and engineering of person who is recording /producing. Like I always say, put on a blindfold and I'll gladly A B you couple of different amp and software amp sounds and you won't ever know the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant that they tried to use a bunch of amp sims and left the classic Green Day sound Im quite aware of how to make music as well, no reason to go producer snob on someone - that’s a fantastic way to get people to ignore your point 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment wasn't intended as an attack on you, it just reminded me that there's still a lot of people who live in delusion and ignorance about the whole amp thing. Just a general thought. As far as using bunch of different amps and leaving classic Green Day sound, they've been doing that since Trilogy, or even before that, which doesn't necesarilly has to be a bad thing. I'm in the minority who loves guitar sounds on Trilogy. 💪🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienVisitor Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) I don't expect anything big from this album honestly. They're not as ambitious as they used to be , like with AI & 21stCBD. Now Billie just throws out whatever the hell comes to his mind. With recent tracks like pollyana and holy Toledo ,we can see what direction they're going with this one. Yeah it's gona suck donkey balls Edited November 14, 2022 by senti jamir 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlissaGoesRAWR Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 ... well, today I learned they're on Tik Tok. I remember when Billie just randomly tweeted out random thoughts as promo. I guess I'm old now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's gona suck donkey balls I don't think those tracks are indicative of what the album's gonna sound like. Those tracks are... just fine. But I don't see them as album tracks and I think GD knows that. FOAMF was an experiment, this album seems like it's going to be more of a "Green Day" album. Whether it's good or bad, idk. I'm not gonna get my hopes too high and disappoint myself but I wouldn't be too pessimistic about the album either. A Green Day album doesn't need to sound ""ambitious"" to be good. I know they've been busy doing other things this year but I don't think they've been recording this album for over a year just to release some dog shit product 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HCTS I think was a FOAM leftover, Pollyanna was released in May 2021, not sure when it was actually recorded, Same with Holy Toledo, released later that year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 1972 should reveal that St. Jimmy was catfished by Amanda, putting a different spin on the whole Idiot story. She wasn't as authentic as he thought. Maybe he was the authentic one after all. Now he's traveled through time with the help of The Network and he's landed in 1972 South Carolina where he plans on tearing up the town with positivity. But a stranger in the shadows might just ruin all of space and time forever now. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMFAO!!! 😆 But in all seriousness, with all these American Idiot vibes we're getting, along with American Idiot references from the band themselves in the teasers, I'm really hoping this is going to be a new rock opera, featuring characters and events based on Billie and his childhood 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
