punk_rockr Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Okay, you have a valid point. First of all, the majority of their present fan base is absolutely salivating to get a hold of something new from them. I think that's responsible for a large part of this excitement. I know I'm excited. I'm grown. I've been a big, big, big BIG fan for 15 years, and I have a right to get excited by 1:23 of new Green Day, as simple as it is.The 'teaser' is simple, quiet, but w/ a bit of energy bubbling under the surface. I can feel that. It's a feeling, not just being technical over what I hear. No, it's not a "true" fan duty to love everything they do. I don't love everything they do. I highly dislike the song Fashion Victim It's not about that, not for me. It just so happens I'm in line w/ a lot of what they say. Not everything. I wish this album wasn't so political, and religious. I hope it's not. But if it is, I'm listening to the music, and the lyrics, and I know I'll love it because I've loved every album they've put out so far for different reasons. Usually personal ones. So I don't think we're giving this 'too much credit' when indeed we're giving Green Day the credit they deserve. They treat their fans very well, and I'm glad to get this little bit from them. It won't be long now. Besides, it's on a web site. It's not the first single.ofcourse you have the right to be exited, so does everyone I guess. But I really don't see whats the big deal about this teaser. I might sound like an old cranky bastard who can't be exited anymore, but that's not the case at all, fortunately But they could have at least give us 30 seconds or even 15 seconds of a "real" song instead of over one minute of those repeating two chords that doesnt say anything, absolutely anything about the new album.

You're 19! I understand what you mean, but to generalize and assume we're lemmings, that's not nice Cause that's not the case. I understand where you're coming from, I wish we had more, too.

punk_rockr Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Who are you to decide people are way too stoked? Every single person here is entitled to their own reaction.Whatever it may be.Besides how can you be critical of a chord on repeat?We havent seen anything yet. sounds like you are saying that every fan blindly follows them and can do no wrong, and since you can be critical that makes you a better fan. That is almost as dumb as djrosstar saying he doesnt like Blink182 anymore because their fans think they are better than Green Day.yes ofcourse everyone has their rights to be stoked about whatever they want to be stoked about. I think you know what I mean, don't give me that "who gives you the right to..bla bla bla". I know I know. The point is that I want ppl to be more critizising overall about their favourite band. open their minds a bit, not just swallow everything whole. I'm not saying that I am a better fan, there's no such thing as a better or a worse fan. I get your point totally, now i hope that you get mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nimrod99 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I really don't have an opinion of what to think... yet. There's not enough to really have an opinion one way or the other. We'll just have to wait until more comes out, or until the album comes out. I'm just glad Green Day hasn't dropped off the face of the earth after all. It's good to know that there is a new album coming out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimitra A. Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Oh, I never even thought of that. Good point.I still think it's either a transition between songs, or an intro.maybe a transition between act I and act II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Khristov Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 maybe a transition between act I and act IINah, I would bet that it's the intro/first song."Sing us a song of the century" doesn't exactly go well in the middle of the album. It would be out of place.By the way, sounds good. I think the mixing for this album is going to be even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
