Greenday

greenday are alrite but i only like some of there songs like boulavard of broken dreams and holiday, soz for bad spellin

havnt herd of them. :huh:

I'd say greenday is more of an introduction rocker band. Once people get more into rock bands, they tend to shy away from the pop-rock bands.

You mean 'wannabe' then, people go around listening to them like "Yeah i'm a rocker" sort of attitude.. or most people i know, that listen to them think they're rockers.

I definately only listen to them if the come on the radio, which is like every third song... because they're a top 40's band now. I really like their old stuff, specifically from Dookie, but back when it came out and I was all about The Offspring. Smash is by far the best album ever released by any band.

I like them...but i don't love them. I like their new stuff better..i hate punk rock...it annoys the hell outta me. like new charleotee >=(

I voted 3.
I have some of their albums, but I seldom listen to them anymore.

Dookie was my first CD ever - and I loved nearly every song on that cd (that was a quality cd). I think I followed them a bit longer - but I started getting more into rap in 6th grade (I got that when I was in 3rd).

Woah...That exactly how I was. Except I soon realized how absolutely horrible rap was :) .

Their best album was Dookie and then they went through this stage where it was all just cookie cutter copies of Dookie, but this new album looks really good. I think they've gotten sick of doing the same old stuff and actually want to make a good CD. Not a great band, but their new CD is worthy of $16 price tag.

I think American Idiot (the album as a whole) was almost like an experiment. I mean I think they just wanted to "break the mold" and do like a concept album. cuz really, if you watched Storytellers with them, that's what it is. It follows around this guy "St. Jimmy" and it's all about him. I love Green day, and actually just got tickets the other day to see them on Sept. 11th here at the Palace of Auburn Hills. (it's where the pistons play)

Dookie I think was their best album, and I have it. I also have others like Nimrod, 1039/Smoothed out Slappy Hours, and International Superhits. I think that Green Day can stick around for a little bit longer, I just hope we get one more album after AI, that's more of a Dookie type album.

Them as a band, they are really tight. Mike Dirnt is awesome at playing the bass, and Tre Cool is just a phenominal drummer. Billie Joe is no slouch at guitar either. Listen to "One for the Razorbacks" the solo is great...
