This has to be fake. That guy a few days ago said it sounds like early Green Day albums. 

And now this guy is trying to ruin it for me by saying it sounds like something from AI and 21st Century Letdown.

C'mon they were good albums! Besides weren't you one of the ones in love with the trilogy. Though

I'll agree I was hoping for something that sounded more like their older stuff

I'm very happy with the trilogy comparison. Peacemaker nod actually scares me a bit.

I'm really hoping it doesn't sound like either. I love every album excluding the trilogy but it's never flattering to be compared to your previous work, and Green Day could greatly benefit from something entirely unique compared to their old music.

That DJ heard it at Lollapalooza. Did that guy say how he got to listen to it? Just curious

Comparisons are never spot on, that's why all of them we've gotten so far are different. They're a fun way to generate hype but don't judge it til' you've heard the song.

The only thing that has been exactly the same in each review of Bang Bang is the excitement of the listener and that the song made a very good impression on first listen.

Yeah the good impressions is more important than the sound imo. Honestly, the Trilogy with different production is similar to Kerplunk and Dookie, so the reviews aren't that different in sound analysis. And the fact that it sounds like a positive evolution/direction is a good thing as well.

The significance of the "FUN" car is important too. I can see a video coming out with the single, or at least shortly after it. The car is too unique to be nothing.

Idiots.  Only a few 'special' people heard it and that dudes buddy isn't one of them.   First word of the song is 'HAVE'....  tell me that and I'll believe that turtle that's on his back and can't flip over.  I just looked in the mirror like 20 minutes ago.  I'm handsome.  Illuminati.

I really need to stay out of here. I really hate reading other people's opinions on a song before I hear it myself, now I've got all these comparisons giving me expectations and I just wanna hear the song for myself.  *sigh*  I'm gonna try and stay off GDC til the song comes out.  Try.......

I started reading that song review, then I realised after line 1 I don't want to know how it sounds. I'm gonna resist reading the review and not base my first listen on someone else's opinion. It's wednesday morning for me now, so one more day :woot:

I kind of regret reading the reviews to be honest, now I have too many conflicting expectations... still as excited for it as in the beginning though! 30 more hours:dance:

He did say that he's not very good at reviewing music, but I think we can still trust him! I showed the post to some Spanish people that are going to hear it today (through the warner contest) and I'll tell you what they think about his comments (they're not allowed to post much about the song). 

Do you think the single will come with the video tomorrow or at first they will just post it with a still/ lyric video?

If it's not the official video yet I'm hoping for a lyric video

Holy shit, that review is literally everything I've been wanting from this song. I really really hope it's true. So fucking hyped!

I'd personally rather have the song without an official music video at first - I want to listen to it first, rather than watch it, so I can take my own impressions from the song rather than focus on a potentially only half-related story.  I think it's most likely we'll get a lyric video, but either a still or an official music video is possible.  I don't mind too much though, the song's being released and that's what matters most to me!

The spanish people can go listen to the song anytime from 10 in the morning to 10 at night, so we may have another review soon :thumbsup:

What time will it be available for us all to hear it? I haven't been reading the 200 pages worth of info but I'm guessing radio stations will be playing it earlier than the official release.

From GDA:

LIVE 105 (KITS) in San Francisco and 93.3 (WNCD) in Youngstown, Ohio have announced that they will play the song at 10am ET / 7am PT (that's 14:00 UTC).

Wonder how this will inpact early thoughts. 

Will probably translate them as they come in, if one isnt asleep.

Well, on the radio :) We really don't know much else. Maybe on youtube, iTunes, and Spotify as well. You should ask  @Andres or @Matt.  :D
