Libertine Angel Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I'm stupidly tired and blasting Nimrod stupidly loud because I spent the night subjecting myself to Sandinista and need something to get it out of my head. It seems to be working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never considered what it'd be like live but I think it'd be really cool, I'd like to see Billie sing it before Good Riddance.

So basically the entire album is class it's probably my favorite next to Nimrod, which is where most of those b-sides are from anyway right? I always wondered which ones were from Warning though... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scumbag with its excellent lyrics by Mike and the Outsider cover are Warning, not bad either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scumbag with its excellent lyrics by Mike and the Outsider cover are Warning, not bad either. Interesting. I thought Scumbag and Outsider were recorded during the Nimrod sessions as I remember listening to them nonstop prior to Warning. The sound also seems distinctly Nimrod to me. Were they released as Warning B Sides or is my memory just blending eras at this point? I am sure I could easily Google the facts but I will take your word as you would know better than I. I like your call of Desensitized, Suffocate, etc. as being some of their best material. They were incredibly prolific and creative during this era. I have been listening to a playlist of my top GD songs lately and Scattered, All the Time, Uptight, Jinx, Haushinka, etc. are on heavy rotation. When you listen to these songs you realize how incredibly proficient they were musically (harmonies during Scattered, bass lines during Jinx) during this period. The lyrics (i.e. the Grouch) were superb. And while it felt like they had been on the scene forever, I think they were 27 at the time, maybe 26 or even 25 when recording and even younger when writing. I know we as hardcore fans recognize it, but for such a huge band, I feel they are terribly underrated at times. The Nimrod era was still early in their career arc, but the music still continues to amaze me every day. I can say the same about each one of their albums, but Nimrod flew under the radar at the time, and is arguably their strongest work to date. Other albums were more polished (AI, 21CB), or immediate (Insomniac, while a bit of a Dookie hangover, still immediately punched you in the jaw with its grit and angst, and Dookie was a splash of cold water during the at-times sleepwalk that was grunge). There is so much to love about the band. I can't wait to hear what they're currently working on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maid Meringue Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Did anyone have issues buying/renting HLAHG from Google? I'm trying to watch it on my Roku TV and it says it can't be played due to licensing issues. Side note, I was 12 when I got into green day and 14 when I first joined the forum, now I'm 22!

I'm only counting official releases... I have no clue when those demos first surfaced on the web, so I wouldn't be able to pin a "release" year to it if we counted that version. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 So I was at Walmart the other day and noticed American Idiot on the shelf! I looked at it and sure enough they carry edited version of american idiot now. When did this happen and how does everyone feel about it? Also, I've got Like Sunday Like Rain on pause in the next room. So far...it's okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
