via nirvana
via the pixies
via someone/something else before them.

Yeah, but did those other bands, that nobody has ever even heard of BTW, then get quiet again? I don't think so.

Green Day = extreme originality

Reminds me of that shitty My chemial romance album cover.

Dynamics = lots of quiet-to-loud like everybody attributes to the Pixies for a reason that is still unclear to me, it being an obvious element of rock music since it began (haven't these people ever heard the Bee Gees' b-side "Close Another Door"? Sheesh! Get with it, people!).

I still like to listen to pre-nimord Green Day. It is just great pop-punk. But now, yeah if there is a worthy example for total sellout they are.

They are number 3 on the sell-out list.

1. AFI
2. Sugar Ray
3. Green Day

I'm just a squaaaaaaaaaaaaaare
goin nowheeeeeeeeere

I never liked AFI.

Like em or not, they are a sell out. The changed their sound solely to make more money.

I never liked Sugar Ray, but they did the same thing.

I know, one girl I used to hang around with was/is a major fan(haven't saw her in ages). I sit throught December Underground a gizzilion times and that album was a gaint sell out.

MWAHAHAHA
so true

good call.

can't remember how many times i nearly strangled people who wouldn't change the radio station back in 2004 when that fucking song off of ai would come on. yes i heard all of the singles plenty of times.

fuck green day.

long live wal-mart!

I wouldn't call AFI total sell-out, but December Underground is a travesty compared to the first 4 or 5 albums.

No shit, Buddy Holly did this sometimes, Syd Barret did it well, and so did so so so many bands before...

It pisses me off when ppl talk about loud, quiet etc like frank black invented it and kurt cobain was the last to ever be allowed to solidify the legit 'method' of it all.

fuck off

I'm doing it with my band

in a new way

keep pushin forward

even brian wilson did it

he used his voice and his bands voices

franky used his distortion plus his squeeky voice

kurt used his shit

I use my shit

you use yr shit

my milk is yr shit
yr shit is my milk

what the fuck am I even ranting about anymore

GREENDAY?


WHY EVEN GIVE THEM A FUCKING THREAD!?

WHO EVEN BUYS THE ALBUM TO GIVE IT A SHOT!? AND THEN BRINGS THE TOPIC TO SONIC YOUTH GOSSIP!!!!!


fuck man.

I'm about to start a Knickleback thread...because they piss me off, I can't believe...like...a band like that is famous...ya know? I mean...oh man....KNICKLEBACK!!!!!



really....

noone gives a shit anymore about the mainstream or anything, it's all equal...just listen to waht u want to

deaddildo, this was supposed to be just a fun thread. making fun of green day in their suckitude. it was turned semi-serious because apparently people still like them. and they are among us. which offends me

You misunderstand....I am calm.


I rant more like this....

nah i didn't tell you to calm down. eat that pizza

you need to calm down. NOW.

green day are about punk rock, mudpits and girls kissing other girls.

what's the fucking problem here?




on topic: I've heard that "BJA" has a strong odor and rarely bathes. althought this is unsubstantiated on my part, I find it highly likely.

just sayin', green day's point of reference for "loud quiet loud" was pro'lly nirvana. i don't what green day listens to, nor do i have any clue what green day even sounds like any more.

floatingslowly, maybe that's not 'punkrawk' guyliner, but rather, a collection of funkitude around his eyes...

Ya Ya ok
