Stefano Bras Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 5 hours ago, JJ1964 said: The only official single that Blink releases was Bored to Death. They may have released otehr songs for people to hear but they were not official singles. People were talking about GD releasing another official single which would have two competing against each other. It really isn't necessary to be nasty when people may not understand things. That is the point of asking questions. I never said that all the songs were singles and I really don't see what you mean by "competing against each other" like they didn't were songs from the same album and artist. More songs distribuited throughout these next few weeks until the release date = more hype and keeps people interested. And it's not really about official singles or promotional singles or whatever the fuck, I was talking about people really believing that Bang Bang is going to be only song we're gonna hear from the album until October 7th, which is ridiculous.

tresexy101 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Ok...enough of this guessing crap! It's fun and all - but I condone bad behavior. Let's start betting, wagering - I'll start, I'll bet ANY of you 20 US dollars that Green Day is going to put out a new album Oct. 7th. I'll also wager that the second single will be the single after their first single. I love ya'll. But relax..... panties are wet, boners are boners.... we are gonna get a new G.D. album!!! YAAY! RevRad is gonna be sick and I think NOFX's album, also coming out on Oct. 7th, will be sick too. They have already released another song called 'I Don't Like Me Anymore' or something like that. Sick song. That is why Oct. 7th will be an event for me...2 albums, full tank of gas, and blasting my stock stereo in my 4 cylinder ride. Ahhhh, lube may be needed. Damn squeaky tires.

Sixtrix Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 The album only has 12 songs, of which already 2 songs are known (some people haven't listened to Ordinary World yet though) If they decide to release one more song before the album is released then we already have 1/4 of the album out. I wouldn't mind if they only keep it with BANG BANG until the album release. With the music video coming up soon it will fill up the time just perfectly.

I still don't think we can consider ordinary world a song we know. We've had a sneak peek of it, but suggesting that hearing a single live performance counts the same as a studio release doesn't make sense to me. Look at 21 guns acoustic live Vs 21 guns studio version; they're totally different songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at 21 guns acoustic live Vs 21 guns studio version; they're totally different songs. That's one example. Drama Queen, Amy and When It's Time didn't differ that much from the eventual album recording structure and lyric-wise. So I am not expecting Ordinary World to be much different except for maybe a full band in the recording. I know When It's Time had some additions like a solo and Drama Queen had a piano added in the recording, but both were not really far away from the live version. Which is fine because both songs were not that bad at all. But I'll be surprised if they've completely changed Ordinary World. With the lyrics and melody going on in the live recording it's not coming off as a strong song to me personally. But I am still open for any options, as I stopped listening to the live recording of Ordinary World after the 3rd time and I'm waiting to hear the studio version. I can be a hard-ass about this entire thing but Green Day have amazed me with their music before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The burning radio looks kind of lame on the T-shirt or on pictures we've seen so far but it might look quite cool on the otherwise plain cover, withought the script, especially with the red vinyl. I can't say I like it but it's not bugging me a lot either. 1 minute ago, Harry Potter. said: pretty awful. and i can't see an underlying style they can have in all their new artwork. i mean, it's just a burning radio. their other designs, like single artworks, tour shirts, will have to be completely different. and that's a shame considering how good the unified style of the trilogy or 21cb looked. The only link I see between the Bang Bang cover and the album cover is that both are detailed objects on plain black background. Maybe other designs will keep the pattern. I actually like the simplicity of it. At first I thought it was the second ugliest album cover ever, right after Gaga's Born This Way, but I'm getting used to it. It's not nearly as bad as it seemed to me at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still don't know why they went with it though. It isn't particularly memorable and if it wasn't attached to Green Day people would probably assume it was just some shitty, overproduced metal album or something.

It's nothing special but it could work well with the music, though. I like that they used something that's not too schematic but it's still simple. It might become much more memorable and stand out when there is some music to relate to it. I didn't like the Trilogy covers much either, this definitely isn't worse.

onionbubs Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I once heard this album cover described as a doritos commercial interpretation of punk music. I tend to agree, but I prefer it to the covers of uno dos and tre. Also not too wild on 21CB's cover, but I prefer that to the one of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was in the god-awful 'let's take a moment' article. I appreciate that people have different tastes in album art, but that article would have made its points more effectively if it didn't go so over the top with trying to shit on Green Day that it ended up being worse than any album cover could ever be. It was a laughably terrible article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
