I wonder if this is just due to CLA's mixing or if they re-recorded some parts after they scrapped 1972. They definitely made some changes. In the first RAK teaser, Billie can be heard going “Woah woah!” But in the single, that backing vocal is nowhere to be found. I just can’t wait to hear the story about the entire recording process. I’m just surprised Mike didn’t mention anything about 1972 in his podcast interview 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montclare Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I don't hear cheering either, just harmonizing/backing vocals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a different version of FOAM? 😄 9 minutes ago, AlienVisitor said: I don't think the first teaser is LMNB.. could be a different song. At first I also thought that the first teaser is not LMNB, because the slow pair of guitars is louder than the fast pair in the teaser. But after several listens I am quite convinced that's it's an early version of LMNB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DookieLukie Posted November 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2023 Just glad the guys seem passionate about their new music. Playing the new songs a lot and Billie even posted on IG an acoustic LMNB. They seem passionate and genuinely excited unlike FOAM or even RevRad. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crowd starts cheering just as Billie starts singing the chorus. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Teenage Teenager is a such a banger. I hope Fancy Sauce is hiding IWATT-2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Saviour Posted November 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2023 Alright, hear me out. And I know I'm derailing the topic, but whatever. I don't like FOAMF. At all. For the most part, pretty much everything about it is wank, sadly. BUT, Teenage Teenager isn't the worst song on the record. The lyrics are absolutely TERRIBLE, but the Weezer-esque choruses are catchy AF. The buildup harmonies in the last chorus are great. If I listen to this record (barely ever) I find myself pretty much only listening to this, Sugar Youth and Graffitia. On the whole, in GD's vast discography, it's right down the bottom... but it's not their worst song. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian's Inferno! Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I don't understand how people aren't hearing the cheering in Teenage Teenager. It's not the backing vocals or some weird sound effect. It's blatantly an audience sound effect at 3:00 58 minutes ago, Saviour said: Alright, hear me out.

But not any more than basically any other Green Day song ever made, even compared to the other songs on the album. And it doesn't have anything other than catchiness. Admittedly, it's not as bad as the verses but I despise this track. Easily the worst song on the album and almost definitely the worst Green Day song imo.

I actually like that song a lot, though 🤷♂️ As far as the new album, I feel like OEB would work really well for a hockey team after they score a goal. If people sang along to Chelsea Dagger by The Fratellis imagine an arena all going "Bada Bing Bada Bing Bada Booooooom" after a goal. Vancouver Canucks used Holiday as their goal song for two years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 On 11/8/2023 at 9:51 AM, Christian's Inferno! said: Pretty sure Green Day will be competing with blink for the grammys. Neither band will be eligible for the grammys in February (except maybe some of blink's singles released pre-album release) because the cut off date for that would've been early-mid October I think but the year after that, both of their albums will be eligible. And there's no way Green Day's album is going to beat blink's album in the Grammys. Regardless of whether it's better or not. They might get a nomination or two which would be cool but I wouldn't be expecting any wins. Pretty sure Green Day's studio singles/albums have been completely absent from grammy nominations since they won Best Rock Album for 21CB. The only nominations they got after that were for the AI musical and Cuatro. I think RevRad might've got a nomination if it was released a bit sooner because it was released like days or weeks after the cutoff for the 2016 grammys I think The Blink album is out this year and GD’s next. They shouldn’t be going head to head. They might both appear and perform though for this year’s. Who knows with the Grammys anymore… 11 minutes ago, M1KEY said: Vancouver Canucks used Holiday as their goal song for two years.

No redeeming qualities I don't hate the song as much as you do, but it's crazy to think that just a few years prior Billie wrote Outlaws - another song about his youth, but with far superior musical, lyrical, and emotional depth. It's baffling how these two simkilar-themed songs, so different in quality, are only separated by one album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it’s as bad as this forum thinks it is but I agree there’s not much impact from the song as a whole. Maybe it’s more of a testament to foam being their worst release.

But these are the 2 songs that stand out to me. SYITH may not be original but I like the energy it has and think it's superior to Fuck Time. So I welcome it in their discography. I also don't dislike the garage rock sound of Foxboro Hot Tubs or even Dos, and SYITH is just a continuation of that sound really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a solid album, I remember Mother Mary getting airplay here in Toronto for about a year too. I dont know if I like Fuck Time more or SYITH.
