Isabel Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 It's weird though, it doesn't sound very Green Dayish yet. And tbh I expected a bit more than just 2 chords played over and over again as a preview.Yeah, I agree. Why is everyone going absolutely nuts about it? It's only 2 chords and Billie Joe's distorted voiceGod, what will things will be like when the actual album comes out?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova-Caine Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yeah, I agree. Why is everyone going absolutely nuts about it?

Hermione Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yay I heard it I love it, it sounds like the slow building start of an epic album to me. Roll on May! Do you have an mp3 player Hermione? (not an iPod) most libraries will let you plug a USB mp3 player into the computers and download stuff.Thanks for the advice, yeah I've thought of that in the past but in this library they won't let you plug anything into the computer, they're worried about viruses or something. But nevermind my wonderful brother downloaded it for me I was sickened when it cut off right about when you could tell it was gonna explode into the song Haha me too, I am so desperate to hear that song now. I reckon it's a seperate track going into the song, like an intro. I remember once reading Billie Joe saying he was impressed by these albums that have stories and skits in them and when I heard this sample I thought "ooh, maybe that's what they're doing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yeah, but that was 5 years ago, so...It sounds like the intro of something, or a transition, a loop or a coda like Quadrophenia (you know where the 4 melodies are played on top of each other, The Rock, I think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agija Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I was going to listen to it yesterday, but I couldn't. So I had to wait almost 24 hours to hear it.I'm so excited. Can't wait to hear the whole song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbug Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 So I guess that that means that my two cents don't matter.... *hmph* (No, but really.

Doesn't mean it's right, but it's welcome! lolI am going to take that as a compliment and put your name down for the 'lets follow the boys round the country even though we can't afford it' tour Not long til we can actually do that :wink:You can put my name down on that list, too... though I live in a different country than you...But rest assured, if I had the money, I'd follow them for the entire tour.

novacaine_kid Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 this was more of a soundbite than a sample. can't really form much of an opinion based on this but at least stuff is happening now after how many years of waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marie1986 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Hello? Green Day is one good example that these are not exclusive concepts. They grew a larger fan-base with AI, because it was a fucking awesome masterpiece, that went just straight into the hearts of millions of people, because it is just so damned passionate and true and amazing. And If you read all the interviews they gave and all the stuff they said about that record, you can clearly see, that they were not aiming for a larger fanbase, but that they were really proud of what they have achieved with it as musicians. I doubt, there was any thought of making millions of dollars out of it while they recorded it. Does anyone remember the time, in which that record came out? A punk-rock-opera? It was a pretty bold move, I would say and I am so glad, they made it. Idk, powerpop means Broadway Calls for me and I fucking love them.i totally agree...with all the interviews during AI, they were amazing and talked more about the album/storyline than anything else. it just shows how they aren't obsessed about earning money. idk many bands that do amazing interviews and just have so much passion like green day has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day've reached the point in their carreer where they absolutely don't care (and don't even have to care, I think) about the money. They make music for the fans and for their own plessure! And they do it gooooooooooood :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, any true artist should always be looking to improve and keep an open mind at all times. To me, American Idiot, and, most likely what CBD will be, is the sound of a band who is absolutely dedicated and in love with what they do. It's never been about what people think or how much money they make, and they'll always be that way. That's why I love them. People STILL talk about how AI was such a sell out record - I'm sorry, but making that album, making such strong statements and completely going out of their comfort zone took more guts than I've personally seen any band take. Today it seems that there's not much originality in the music industry, but I so deeply respect those who do what they want, not what everyone else wants them to do. I'm so proud to be a fan of these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
