I can't exactly put my finger on it but the snotty punkiness of his old interviews seems to be a thing of past. He's becoming classier.

Didnt he rephrase it later? I thought he said he sounded too I think the word he used was bombastic? Reflecting and admitting an error is pretty mature i think..

He also said that he doesn't completely dissagree with the comparison which cheapens the horrible things Jews had to go through during the war. He also compared him to Ronald McDonald. Yup really mature of him. I still like him but it would be a lot better if he wouldn't make a fool of himself so often. And from reactions under his post, others didn't appreciate it either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And from reactions under his post, others didn't appreciate it either Fool of himself? Again, you don't agree with him, as well as all the Trump supporters that commented his posts. But there are political analysts and political scientists comparing Trump's communication style and role inside politics to the one pursued by Hitler. Personally I agree with some of these analysis, what Billie said is not fool, it's just an opinion. About Ronald McDonald I found this comparison a bit soft, offensive for the clown I would say. Not Trump, the other one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second favourite son Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I don't care whether it's a concept album, a rock opera, part 1 of a 23 album series, a commentary on Trump, an album about fast food, back to their roots, brand new never-before-heard material or anything in between. I just want it to be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just super excited we are getting a normal album. The gimmicks were getting annoying. I wouldn't call a concept album a gimmick. IT is just a style of album, a way to bring the music out through a story. Some of the most amazing albums ever are concept albums, Tommy, Quadrophenia, The Wall, AI. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Billie's smart to not label it anything, because people will just go crazy with any language he uses to describe it. People were trying to squeeze concepts out of the trilogy because of a few offhand remarks by Billie. It seems best to just let it breathe, let the album and the music define itself, whatever it happens to be 59 minutes ago, JJ1964 said: I think their two best albums were both concept albums. So, I would have been just fine with that. However, I'm fine without it as well as well. Especially considering the lead single is so damn good. 21CB was pretty loose conceptually I thought, but its damn fucking hard to do something to the level of AI so I definitely don't hold that against them. I think, just like song titles, if the music is good, anything will work, if it ain't, people will second-guess. But it's damn hard to pull off even one really good conceptual album, so creatively speaking it may be too much of a drain to try and accomplish the feat again. What I think would be cool is almost a best-of-both-worlds from Dookie and AI. Dookie was brazen, clever, and most importantly accessible. AI is high-minded, stadium-tailored, and political as all hell. If they created an album that really captures the chaos of the political moment in the US while simultaneously connecting with people a generation younger than them, then they're the best fucking band of all time as far as I'm concerned. That's my pipe dream for what this album will be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
