redconverses Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I actually thought about that too - if they did that, it would be reminiscent of the 21stCB material - that was split up into three acts with six songs in each act, wasn't it? But this time it's three albums. I dunno, I think they might actually be full albums. Maybe not 18 tracks, but possibly 10 or 12, like a normal album. But just three of them. Within six months. I guess, it's just that I was thinking about what they would do for their live shows, like which songs are they going to pick to play live? And if they want to play several songs off of each album, then the shows are gonna be REAAAAAALLY LONG lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forever Now Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 If they did a story like American Idiot and had 3 parts to it, that'd be amazing. It'd be like the Harry Potter part 1 and 2 movies, you've seen the part 1 but now you're so anxious and can't wait to finish the story with part 2.

The Grohl Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I'm very doubtful about this right now. It just sounds really weird and i dunno....I'm just not gonna get excited or anything until it actually happens or we hear more from them, but right now it just sounds weird.

But maybe they have something up their sleeve for that, I have no idea - they don't appear to mind doing super long concerts in any case Perhaps they'll do a few medleys for each album...

Annie, get your gun Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 This raises so many questions. I think it's awesome, because we know they've always had tons of material when making new albums. But this usually means they condense it to the best they think they have. Does this mean they're putting it all out there, or are they just consdencing less. Will the trilogy be tied together thematically, will there be a story arch, or are they just three standalone albums only tied together by the fact they're being releases so close together. I feel like the songs we've heard so far make it feel the latter point. They aren't really tied together, they seem like they're more individualistic songs compared to stuff from AI and 21CB. What if it's one album per member? Like, each one wrote the majority of the music? I don't know. There's so many possibilities here. I like the "one album per member", I thought about it too. As everything that they've been doing lately, this is completely unusual. I think they just want to be creative and original, and even more ambitious than the last 2 records. No one can make conclusions until we know more about it or at least when the 1st album come out, for sure they'll explain it later. They're doing this for a reason, we all know that each member of Green Day loves music and is music, they just have more to share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'm so tired of story and concept albums, so I really hope they're not doing that again. I agree. The idea of a trilogy worries me though. I hope they don't see making something "epic" as needing to be a concept album again. Honestly, I guess I wouldn't care if it was a concept album. If the music kicked ass, I'd be fine with it. But there were points in 21CB where I felt the music wasn't as strong, maybe too much attention to the storyline and not about the music itself. Did you know it was going to be three too? I feel so bad for you, I could never hold that in. No I didn't. Just as surprised as everyone else about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
