musso_kn Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 With some touch ups and tweaks, iTRE! could have - should have - been released on its own. It might just have had the right 'epic' feel the band was supposedly going for. Plus, it's quite a laid back, sincere sounding album, quite like Warning. I don't know if that's entirely 'unpopular', but oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBaboon Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 UNO would have been a decent album if it came out 20 years ago. It's way after its time in 2012 and not in a good, classic way like Stop, Drop, and Roll was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InvaderPhantom Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Hitchin a Ride is a badass song live and they should keep playing it, but they should stop making that song over 10 minutes long with all those classic rock song snippets and endless ayos. If they wouldn't drag on with that song so much, they could play like two more songs instead. Oh and if they can make Hitchin a Ride and King for a Day ten minute long songs, they have no freakin excuse for kicking out Jesus of Suburbia >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerjeezus Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I think Billie looks old. At least he looks much older than he did in past few years...It's not important, but it's probably one of most unpopular Green Day opinions ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he looks his age or only slightly younger (although that isn't old ). People say he looks in his 20's and that's just madness. He doesn't look particularly young, just smoking hot!

He doesn't look particularly young, just smoking hot! I concur. The man looks his age, but it's not a problem, because he looks damn fine. Since I was 15 I've always only found men age 35-45 attractive. Johnny Depp is helping me stretch that to 50, but that's also because I'm now a ripe 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eva Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I don't think the members of Green Day are as good looking as everyone says. For their age, I mean. I'm gay so I have no idea how they are along the lines of sexual attraction because Eva + boys = nope. I think they look good for their age. They don't look 20 though.

Kerplunk!!! Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Warning is not an underated album. I'd be a millionare if i have a pound for everytime i've read Warning is an underatted album on here, i like it, so does the majority of the fans on this board it seems so i definetly would not call it underated. It's sad how often people have the perception that sales equal qaulity these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angela* Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 There's no album that sucks in my opinion: every single one has something special, but i also have my prefered ones. i also think the trilogy might not be the best album, but there also some really great songs and the other ones (that might be 'weak' songs) i simply enjoy, cause theyre all really catchy. How can anyone compare 21cbd or american idiot to the 90ies stuff (especially lyrically) THEY'RE (almost ) GROWN UP! And thats fine, cause they went through a lot of shit Anything that might be not very usual or let us think 'wtf', How do we know, if it was just for FUN (as we know green day) or just an exeriment.

EgocentricPlasticSam Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I think they should cut King for a Day from their set and use that time to play a song like Homecoming, or even 3 other songs. It's always great fun to hear it, but when it goes on for 13 minutes, you can't help but think that they could play more Green Day songs instead of Shout.

We're in fact saying that the album deserves much more sales because it's epic. But it's just so unrecognised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubbie Head Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Fuck Time should've stayed with Foxboro Hot Tubs. I can visualize every song off ¡Dos! as more of a Green Day song than FBHT except that one. And Kevin Preston had a bitchin' solo when they played it live. I agree. But at the same time I'm glad it was recorded and released. Not sure if the Tubbies will ever release a new album, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asa. Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I agree. But at the same time I'm glad it was recorded and released. Not sure if the Tubbies will ever release a new album, unfortunately. With Billie's sobriety...probably not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deletethisaccount Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 You know what? I kinda like when Billie lets Jason scream that part after the chorus in Let Yourself Go. He sounds frail and vulnerable and it's an interesting contrast to the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Kevin Preston had a bitchin' solo when they played it live. I've never been too big a fan of the song because it's just a little too over-the-top, which is OK for the Foxies, but with GD it just sounds a little try-hard. I think Billie looks old. At least he looks much older than he did in past few years...It's not important, but it's probably one of most unpopular Green Day opinions ever. I don't know if it was that he looks old, but he's been looking haggard lately. I realize that's probably a harsh thing to say given the circumstances, but in This is 40, yikes. I'm interested to see him perform again to see if this is still true (he looks better now on the Rolling Stone cover, but that was likely Photoshopped and idk how much so I'm not going to assume he looks like that on a daily basis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyDirnt Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I DON'T think Warning is underrated. Of course it has some great songs on it but for the most part...no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealingimagery Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I hate Kill the DJ and Nightlife, and the Kill the DJ music video makes me want to tear my eyes out...so does the Oh Love music video The Trilogy was a disappointment The entire 21st Century Breakdown album was a disaster and is the worst album Green Day has released. I don't accept Jason White as a second guitarist; he doesn't fit in with the rest of the band.....BUT, I understand why they need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justagrouch Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I think Nightlife is fucking awesome. I think most of the songs on 1039 and Kerplunk sounds like the same... I still like the albums though, I just can't tell the songs from each other. I'm embarrassed about the beginning of Extraordinary Girl, and I don't want my friends/family to hear it.

stealingimagery Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 All of the new clothes that their trying out for the Trilogy (i.e. leopard skinny jeans, skintight BRIGHT purple shirts) look ridiculous and...just...ugh. And the X's for eyes looks too pop and like they're trying too hard. I love Rest and Ha Ha You're Dead, and Blood, Sex and Booze is one of my favorite songs ever. I loved when they all wore eyeliner in the AI days, but they have to face that they're just a little too old now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
