armatageshanks Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 How about yes?Would you like a pinch of salt with that?saying that most bands who are signed to a major label are shitty corporate whores is pretty ignorant.there's a reason why alot of bands are in the underground: cause they're too shitty to make it out.

communitykid Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I didn't say I couldn't stand Green Day. American Idiot is a 3/5 star album for me. I don't hate them. I certainly don't think they lack talent, I just lost interest. I've lost interest in punk rock in general and have been much more into metal than I was a year ago. That doesn't mean I can't stand anything, interests change.That's off topic though. I just don't believe it's Green Day, and I know Billie Joe's voice enough to judge reasonably. I may not have listened to Jesus of Sububia 10,000 times but I gave it at least 100 listens. I may not have seen BIAB 50 times but I've watched it at least 5.Not always mine. But it is always someone's duty.Still. 1 out of what, 50 people is arguing that he doesn't believe it's BJA singing, but it happens to sound dead on to everybody else. Aside from that, you didn't address any of the other information provided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzz Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 BREAKING NEWS: Buzznet uncovers Green Day side projectIn 2003, one year prior to the release of American Idiot, Green Day secretly released an album titled Money Money 2020 under the name The Network. The sound was a mix of punk and new-wave and featured Billie Joe, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool switching off on vocal duties.Four years after its release, Buzznet's own DJ Rossstar has just uncovered a new Green Day side-project by the name of Foxboro Hot Tubs. The sound takes you back to the '60s yet has that distinct Billie Joe sound in the vocals.We discovered this news based on a tip from a source close to Green Day. There's a Foxboro Hot Tubs Web site that is currently just a graphic of a moving clock and you can hear three Foxboro Hot Tubs tracks here! A free downloadable six song album is coming soon.I love how they "broke" the story 4pm, hours after it's been everywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicoleah Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Read my answer to her please.I suppose you are right, someone has to question it. But, we don't know completely what this band is all about. No one can say for sure if they do or don't contain members from Green Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Megan* Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Well, I'm too tired to debate on whether it is them or not.Either way, I like it. Anything new that is remotely related to Green Day is better than listening to BOBD. Again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armatageshanks Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 john, this seems suprising to me since (imo, at least) you seem to be one of the most sensible people here.i don't think it particularly sounds like dead on billie joe, but you gotta admit, the connections seem to add up.and if you are arguing just for arguments sake, then you might want to sit this one out.

Fuzz Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I love how they are fucking arrogant enough to type it as pure facts and not as objective speculation. Bastards.Dude, you need to calm down. There are plenty of reasons to believe they are a part of this. You're just being really fucking stubborn. Listen to The Network. Billie's voice sounds very very similar to the way his voice sounds on this. And considering the links were "leaked" into the Idiot Club by someone "close to the band" is just another reason to assume they have some part of this. Not to mention that guys they work with are in the top friends of the band.The Network sounds nothing like Green Day, and the voice is off there as well. But it's them.

Sanah Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 You do realize that Green Day has a contract with Reprise right? And that their contract very likely disallows them to do things like this?Way late, but you do realize that is not Green Day, but most likely a side project with at least Billie in the band?Reprise doesn't own them.Different band, different rules.

communitykid Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 To quit the speculation and the anti-speculation for a moment....Isn't it great that the music being put out by(what appears to be) Green Day is still catchy and amazing after all these years?

Xihix Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 You can tell it's Billie singing. The bass is also very Mike-like. Also, as some have mentioned, if you snoop around their friends list, you can see the Green Day connections (including the Dugan guy, who's in the top 8, who was the audio engineer on Money Money 2020).I have no doubt it's BJ.

And when did I ever argue the Network at all?You didn't. I'm just saying that they don't sound like Green Day, but it's pretty well known they are a part of that. Fink's voice, compared to this, is very similar.There's no way that anyone here can be 100% sure. But honestly, it's not as implausible as you make it seem.

Samantha Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Well whatever the case is the music is good. So it would obviously be a plus side for those of us in GDA land if it turned out to be the guys. But I think if one thing is a definite, its that it most certainly is Billie Joe on vocals.

I just thought I'd give my opinion support. That's the thing, when you form an opinion, you need to be objective. But when you decide which side to take, you need to argue that side to death.
