C&V in his entirety will be revealed. Its definitely going to happen at some point. There were actually so many great songs written at the time too. Would love to hear a better version of Things I Heard Today. its a great time for them to open the vault, the significance of their new music is low. If songs from c&v and this nimrod demo thing end up having impact its a great way to refresh their setlist live. It definitely works too, we’ve seen them bring some unreleased songs into the setlist and have huge impact. When its time is an example. I remember that was a big thing when they added it 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacejunkie punk Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Old Nimrod era interview from Bikini magazine. Funny to read this now.

It's a passing phase.") https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1PNqX4aOIK6vhFCSHG4bUSfx6w1Q2RsYT?usp=sharing 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 1 hour ago, GDFan2019 said: I wonder if we’ll ever get a studio version of Minnesota Girl It amazes me that it never made an album. For a song like You Irritate Me you can understand why it was dropped. I'm sure if it was selected Rob would have helped them extend it to about 2 and a half minutes with some other parts but the songs on Nimrod are mostly better than that. A song like Minnesota Girl is actually a well crafted song, it's catchy and fits that Warning and C&V era really well. I really love that 2002 era for Green Day, I think C&V would have had some staples for us fans. Obviously prioritizing American Idiot and 21cb was a must for their career trajectory but we really did miss out on something really cool when that unfolded. 1 hour ago, GDFan2019 said: Hopefully his “I hate long songs” phase is over too!!! I don't want long songs just for the sake of being long though. Forever Now and DRB suffer from some repetitive parts - they're both decent songs but they don't hold the impact of Homecoming or JOS. Even American Eulogy being a bit shorter is still a much better version of a long song than those two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzalo17 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 The most exciting tracks of this nimrod are: knowledge live versión with trumpets Acoustic when it's time (i imaginé It better than good riddance) Rest si the same than always (when i come around, longview, she and f.o.d live and demos sounding worse than mastered tracks of same songs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mega Man Posted October 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2022 It is once again a super exciting time to be a Green Day fan (not that it's ever a bad time really). But the one-two punch of a new album and anniversary festivities for Nimrod are a momentous occasion. I'm going to be honest, the Dookie anniversary was pretty underwhelming. There was some merch and a short-lived series of full album shows. Nothing special for the album, but it's not like it was ever out of print. Then Insomniac raised the stakes with more merch, and a kickass album reissue with bonus content. And now Nimrod is getting even more love? Keep it up, I'm all here for it. The gold standard for any re-release is studio outtake tracks. Even having a few tacked on as bonus tracks is enough to get me to double dip on an album. But having an entire disc dedicated to unheard demos is unreal. New tracks from Green Day in their golden age makes this an instant purchase. And of course live tracks always reel fans back in, and they picked a great choice with the Electric Factory tracks previously being sprinkled into the B-sides of the Nimrod radio singles. I can go on gushing, but I really do feel strongly about how well this reissue is being handled. Plus, whoever's running their social media is already doing a tremendous job taking us back to 1997. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like by just focusing on the current 25th anniversary, they're able to dedicate more care to each album. A deluxe reissue so close to [what I hope will be] Warning might stretch them thin and saturate the market. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why couldn’t they release the single back in July and then the box set today? Possibly has to do with when they decided to do this and slow vinyl production 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
