grene cniht Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Did you turn up the silence, the heartache of your life? Haha I thought the same thing as I wrote this! But I decided it was not the right place to mention Brutal Love 1 Quote
Spike Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Haha I thought the same thing as I wrote this! But I decided it was not the right place to mention Brutal Love It's always the right place to mention Brutal Love. Fantastic song. 1 Quote
grene cniht Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 It's always the right place to mention Brutal Love. Fantastic song. "Brutal Love" then. I agree, easily one of the best of the Trilogy. 2 Quote
Z J Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Brutal Love is probably the best song on the trilogy. Hopefully it stays a live staple in the future. 4 Quote
Todd Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Brutal Love is so different for Green Day, yet amazing. Not in my top ten Green Day songs, but definitely in my top ten Green Day songs that don't feel like Green Day songs 2 Quote
Libertine Angel Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 "Lights out, here comes the night...." Lights Out is one of my favourite Green Day songs. Don't really know why, I just love it. 1 Quote
Pat1308 Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 I had the urge to imitate Billie's Dookie-era rant about pet rocks in Chicago (I was bored) but was brought back to sanity by these guys. They just took the cake - they're right up there with the kids who covered The Final Countdown. Or friggin' Eye of the Tiger. :facepalm:http://youtu.be/-nCYEQ_9hWs?t=10m15s Quote
Marina86 Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Random thought: I just remembered the time I ate at Mike's Rudy's can't fail cafe and this guy in the booth next to us fainted. My friend wanted to help him because he probably had a heart attack, but he woke up and yelled at her. He left the diner and my friend followed him (to make sure he doesn't collapse on the street) In that moment a prostitute started hitting on him I guess that's what happens when you eat at Mr. Dirnst's Diner 4 Quote

Pat1308 Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 holy shit that was embarrassing I really, really hate to be that kid. Yes, I know they're young, they're still learning, but jeepers, they really should have thought twice before they recorded themselves on video for posterity. The scarier part though is why I even thought about trying to imitate that out of the blue. It's not like I was drunk or high or stuff. I guess boredom makes you act weird. Quote
Sauli Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 People who cover the Final Countdown are fucked up anyway. If I should choose one song whose very existence I could erase, I would choose that one. It is absolutely horrid. 1 Quote

It is absolutely horrid. Meh, still better than this one. Though that is in itself pure gold. The demented part of me thinks we should totally get some guys in gym shorts do Basket Case in this exact same style. Quote
Todd Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 I went to a local record store today, the place had tons of records, but no Green Day, Nirvana, Ramones, or Metallica. They only had two AC/DC albums, and nothing else made after 1980. Like, what kind of record store is this? Are all of their patrons 55 year olds? Quote

My dad is 55 and i don't think he listens to anything recorded before 1975. Quote
Sauli Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 My Dad is 46 and only likes fifties rock and a few rockabilly reunion bands. Go figure. 1 Quote
Todd Posted July 18, 2014 Posted July 18, 2014 Not necessarily a problem though. Depends. No, it's not a problem to me at all. i hate Green Day and Nirvana and hard rock bands, I only listen to The Rolling Stones, The Mamas and Papas, and the Steve Miller Band Quote
Anaïs.

Or at least their best stuff is. Quote
The Disappearing Boy Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 i hate Green Day Agreed. Doesn't everyone? Quote

Spike Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 I don't think that store had any rock after 1980, and 80s rock is what I consider hard rock The most prolific period for hard rock was the 70s. 2 Quote
Guest Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 After the 70's hard rock just turned into hair metal and glam and AOR and got very embarrassing altogether. Quote
Spike Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 After the 70's hard rock just turned into hair metal and glam and AOR and got very embarrassing altogether. Speaking of AOR, do you think it'd be an exaggeration to consider 2004-09 Green Day AOR? Quote
Guest Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 Speaking of AOR, do you think it'd be an exaggeration to consider 2004-09 Green Day AOR? Yeah, definite exaggeration. They were still very socially conscious and weren't churning out bland meaningless songs to score cheap hits. If anything Trilogy era Green Day is closer to AOR. Quote
