Popular Post HAPPY ZOMBIE UNICORN Posted October 20, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2023 I mentioned after one of the teasers that I was hoping for something more than another KYE or RevRad, man they delivered. Lyrics, diversity within the song, the music itself. This is a banger. And the production value behind this, Jesus I’m so hyped. Can’t wait for the 24th 🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️ 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian's Inferno! Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 I'm unsure whether I want to hear this new live version or wait for the studio version. Is there a high quality recording of the live performance? Cause if not, I think I'd rather wait until the song officially releases, or it gets leaked 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pouty bitch Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Wow okay I'm actually pleasantly surprised. Based on the lyrics and teasers I was expecting something pretty basic and not too special but it's quite good! I actually love that quiet part in the middle with the falsetto(!) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greendepent Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 I think the song is good, but the solo section should be longer. That idea that the songs should be shorter is killing the flow. It sounds like basket case, or sex, drugs and violence at some moments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian's Inferno! Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Honestly Look Ma, No Brains is a great title to me. Really sounds like Billie's letting loose on some idiots. Probably politicians Just now, greendepent said: I think the song is good, but the solo section should be longer. That idea that the songs should be shorter is killing the flow.

I'm thinking of waiting for studio version There are plenty of HQ videos. I think it would be identical to the studio. He didn't butcher the song like 1981. I wish they didn't make us wait until 2024 and just released the album right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian's Inferno! Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Ok I gave in immediately and listened to it and yeah it sounds good. I just hope it isn't somehow ruined on the studio version but what we've heard from the teasers sounds good so I'm confident it will be great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashback Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 How come that nobody who got this vinyl talks about "Hey Ma, No Brains" and why did no one upload it somewhere? 😂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CherryBombs&Gasoline Posted October 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2023 I’m usually a quit observer here, mainly because FOAM and the subsequent stand alone singles have killed my excitement for new Green Day music. However, this new era is actually pretty exciting because it feels like the band actually cares about the music this time. I just felt this massive disconnect when FOAM came out, but ever since they started teasing the new single, there’s a totally different vibe. It seems like they are making an actual effort to promote the new record this time and I really like the visual style of the music video, the homepage, etc. I feel like the last time they had such a cohesiveness was with the release of 21CBD. Of course we haven’t heard the album yet, but from what we heard and saw so far, it could actually be an ambitious record again. I‘m feeling conflicted though. I can’t wait to listen to the song but I’m not sure if a live recording will do it justice. I might wait for the official release. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilskind92 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Welp. I did say I wanted Billie to go a bit deeper into society's problems than "government bad" and lo and behold, that's what I got. I'm extremely excited for this new album. It also sounds pretty awesome. Sounds like Green Day. Can't wait for the studio version! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlienVisitor Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Where is the guy/gal that got the vinyl??? I need the MP3 version of the single and the b side... Pretty plsssssssss 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cav9mm Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 See a bit of news about Green Day, they seem to have stolen some of Blink 182’s thunder. i wonder if the timing is coincidence? 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DeJennsitized Posted October 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2023 I never even considered waiting for the studio version and listened to the live song earlier - I love it! 🥰 I feel like it’s lyrically classic Green Day without slipping too far into the cliche buzz words. Couple of new things in there. I work in pensions and ‘TikTok and Taxes’ is a phrase that just speaks to me 😂 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian's Inferno! Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 People seem to be talking about how the TikTok line will date the song. I don't think so, TikTok has been around for years and will be for several more years at least. It'd be like mentioning YouTube in a song. That's been around since 2005. If we're talking about dated songs though, Holiday is far more dated but people still love it because it's a banger and has meaningful content 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds similar to 'Minority' to me if you listen them back to back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
