Did Green Day change your musical taste?

No. When I got into Blink 182 a few years back, I was more open with other bands. I'm not very close-minded about musical taste though.

Absolutely. Before American Idiot, I was even listening to hip hop and inferior stuff like that. :sick:

But now, I worship Good Charlotte, Sum 41, My Chemical Romance etc. etc. and, of course, Green Day :)

I've listened to Green Day and loved it for as long as I remembered but until about 3 years ago I just listened to them on the radio and didn't know their name. Now I listen to them and only them. Better than nothing.

I dont think any band has changed my musical taste. But rather got me listening to new music.

it's like this....

Green Day started me listening to more rock, but didn't suddenly change my opinion of what I listened to before

Then I discovered bright eyes and I got into more indie rock...but my opinion of green day stayed the same.

Like I said, nothing changed my tastes, just added music to the pile so to say.

I'm listening to Bright Eyes now, because of you and other people on here. And obviously I wouldn't be on here if it wasn't for Green Day, so they've changed the stuff I'm into in that way as well.

nope. it did, however, shock a lot of people who didn't know my musical taste to begin with. it's range is far and wide, beethoven to green day. pretty much all over the place.

No, not really. Well, kind of. I was already a big fan of rock n' roll, and I didn't ever really like RnB or dance or anything, then my friend got me a Green Day CD, and they introduced me to a LOT of punk bands. So now I'm more into punk than rock.

In a way, yeah, they did change it. From rock to punk is all.

they didn't change my musical taste. they made my musical taste. they were the music i grew up on, with my older sister having kerplunk when i was 3, i started to get into it. for them, i got into more underground punk, and yes, some mainstream stuff, too. but they made me like punk rock. but it's not like i only listen to punk. i like some hip hop, and all types of rock

I was a 110% pop chick.

In 1997 I got a job in a record store and used to see all these people buying Green Day albums. I didn't know much about them and was only really familiar with Basket case and Good Riddance. Both of which I rather liked. We couldn't play the CD's in store due to the Parental Advisory Warnings.

Then the Warning album came out. By this time I was into pop (still), r&b and hip hop. As it was a new release and my turn to chose a CD to play instore I decided to give Green Day a try. I suprised myself in really liking it. It was completely different to what I'd normally play. I went on to try International Superhits, you know, to hear a range of music from all their previous albums and figured if I liked that half as much as I liked Warning, there was a good chance I was gunna love this band. Now here I am.

I remember when I saw them at Milton Keynes and the final part of Good Riddance played out, "It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right" really rung true to how I felt about them. Jesus, can you apply that song to almost everything? LMAO.

So their music opened me up to trying out more guitar based bands as it wasn't quite so "scary" to me anymore. My whole CD collection is a far cry to what it used to be.

Nope - was always into punk, pop-punk (I hate that phrase/category - of course it didn't exist until recently) and all sorts of alternative - from alternative rock, industrial, death metal, etc. But, in truth I love music, I'll generally listen to almost anything and the artists on my iTunes seriously range from classical to classic rock to punk to rock to pop to alternative...you get the idea. Green Day are just one of many of my favourite artists.
