Libertine Angel Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 The whole album is brilliant. That's true, of course, but H&H is one of the high points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the lobotomy is my favourite - 21cb tour was my first gd tour - I would like them to capture everything about it - the pyro the energy the anger it was friggin incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before The Lobotomy is definitely fantastic - in fact, I shouldn't really say high points, as they're almost all at the same standard of excellence. And it was my first too, and you're right, it was absolutely incredible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

armatage Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 If we're judging it by Jaded in Chicago, Billie found Heisenberg. I laughed wayy too much at this. How come I didn't think of such comment though? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z J Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Ha I didn't know Billie didn't like H&H. I always find it really interesting when they don't like a song for whatever reason. And to a lesser extent when they love a certain song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chin for a Day Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 OK, I love H & H too. I am really disappointed that Billie doesn't. He did write the damn thing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armatage Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I wonder if one of them hating DRB is also a reason why it has never been played live. OK, I love H & H too. I am really disappointed that Billie doesn't. He did write the damn thing But even when you write songs yourself... a lot of them come out just 'blah, stupid'. Seriously. I was thinking the same thing, how could he hate his own song and all, and then remembered that I like only about 1/10 of what I write.

But then again they recorded Makeout Party as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayonaise Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I wonder if one of them hating DRB is also a reason why it has never been played live. They've actually performed it only once. I mean, I'm not crazy about it. But I'm surprised only once. http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/green-day/2011/the-studio-at-webster-hall-new-york-ny-13d1ad41.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I think people whose work is based on subjective creativity are often their own worst critics. It's like a delicate balance of egotism and insecurity. I absolutely hate 90 percent of my stories just because I'm so hard on myself. Only once in a while do I actually think "damn, this is fucking good," and even then I'm still insecure about it. And my work is hardly as creative as writing and performing songs like a band does.

armatage Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Once in a while I do it right, eh? You could actually be doing it right very often, it just a tiny differentiation between us when it comes to, er, status updates. Not to make this a spammy post, here's an unpopular opinion (maybe). I like the trashy/shitty sound of the first two albums. The poor sound quality just gives them... character. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too am a fan of the raw sound. Not the try-hard raw sound of the trilogy, but the genuine stuff. Listening to those first two albums, unpolished, is wonderful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree with you except that I don't like Kerplunk's guitar tone at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertine Angel Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 For quite a while I didn't really like the sound of the Lookout albums, but then one day I just thought "wait a minute, this is great". 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Disappearing Boy Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I vehemently disagree. Why do you think that?I dunno really. It's not the worst on the album, but I've never really liked it. As good as 21st CBD is, it's a little too long in my book, and that is one of the songs that would be culled in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrduckygoosy Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 About 21st Century Breakdown, I've just realised how See The Light is a poor closing song for such an amazing album, definitely the weakest track imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
