DannyDirnt Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Are you referring to acoustic as in Bridge School or acoustic like only acoustic guitar? The first one would be awesome but the second... no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Are you referring to acoustic as in Bridge School or acoustic like only acoustic guitar? The first one would be awesome but the second... no. Well, if they were going to make an acoustic album, it'd obviously be a full band. And the solo acoustic stuff can be great. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEB09uAQKmE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyDirnt Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Well, if they were going to make an acoustic album, it'd obviously be a full band. And the solo acoustic stuff can be great. Yeah, solo acoustic can be great for a Billie Joe Armstrong solo album. But now for Green Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eva Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I disagree. In my opinion, the last entire punk thing they did was Insomniac, which is the punkest album they did (stil in my opinion). After that, it's alternative rock with punk rock influences (except Warning & 21st Century Breakdown, two records which are not punk at all for me). I can agree with that, yeah. Either way, it's still been quite a while. Insomniac was released in 1995, wasn't it? I can't remember. But I don't think any modern Green Day "fan" can complain about their punk status.

Yeah, it's ok in concerts and radio shows but I'd rather have drums, bass and backing vocals too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 What if who released an acoustic album? Who's "They"? The Black Eyed Peas I'm not usually a massive fan of acoustic versions compared to non acoustic versions, but it'd certainly be interesting to hear some songs that way. I'd like to hear all their most aggressive songs acoustic, Take Back, Platypus and Christian's Inferno would be brilliant. And in fact I do LOVE this rendition of Redundant http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPl1i8mlppk Actually listening to this and thinking about it makes me really want an acoustic album . They can make one after they make me a Beatles covers album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pasalacquaian Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Green Day sounds amazing acoustic (especially holiday), so I'd be first in line to get that album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuckWithInsomnia Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Bridge School + KALX Radio 1998 are both acoustic. But yeah I'd love to have a bunch of their songs acoustic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThibautDookie Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 They should play some Dookie, Insomniac and Nimrod songs on acoustic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJA TC MD Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I have always loved Green Day's acoustic tracks, also when they play songs acoustically, particularly the ones you wouldn't expect to sound good acoustic. I would absolutely love it if an entire acoustic album was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnout409 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I would love an acoustic album of old songs rather than ones specially written for it, i think a live acoustic album would be even better, some thing like 'In defiance of empty times' by 'Strike Anywhere' for the lack of a better example.

Justin Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 If it was like Mayday Parade's Valdosta EP, Acoustic and piano. Oh man i would pay good money for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desecrator09 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I would be highly in favor of this. I wonder if they would pull it off as good as the Joey Cape/Tony Sly collaboration album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J&TheNight Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Heres my pick of a few songs done acoustically. I would like it to be a decent size set that goes in order from 1039 to 21st Century, really enveloping their maturity and growth while showing that, when stripped down, they're still the same band at the core. I'm leaving out the trilogy because those are so new we haven't yet been able to fully appreciate them over time like these other records. Also, I'm trying to avoid singles as much as possible, this should try to show off "fan gems" so to speak. 1) I Was There 2) Green Day 3) Rest 4) Knowledge 5) Christy Road 6) No One Knows 7) Who Wrote Holden Caulfield? 8) Pulling Teeth 9) Basket Case 10) Coming Clean 11) Brat 12) 86 13) Brain Stew/Jaded 14) Walking Contradiction 15) The Grouch 16) Redundant 17) Haushinka 18) Prosthetic Head 19) Blood Sex and Booze 20) Castaway 21) Waiting 22) You Lied 23) Ha Ha You're Dead! 24) Are We The Waiting 25) Homecoming 26) Whatsername 27) Shoplifter 28) 21st Century Breakdown 29) !Viva La Gloria! 30) Last Night On Earth 31) Horseshoes and Handgrenades 32) Static Age 33) American Eulogy 34) See The Light I know that's a huge set, but I think it would be an incredible experience for the band and fans.

Cob Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Something like Alkaline Trio's Damnesia would be great I like the way you think. I would be highly in favor of this. I wonder if they would pull it off as good as the Joey Cape/Tony Sly collaboration album. Those are fantastic records. The acoustic version of Violins by Joey Cape is incredible. But, that being said, I'm not sure if Green Day could pull of acoustic pop like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
