The reasoning as to why BJ writes depressing songs even when intending to make a "party record" is because... he doesn't wanna freak you out, but he cannot li-i-i-ie5 points

When you're a Brit and you've been absolutely disgusted with the UK for a very long time, but then FOAM gets to #1 and you suddenly feel extremely proud to be British.5 points

Listened to American idiot yesterday and I can say that it’s the best album that ever existed. Foam is also great. I’m in love with it. Guys never disappoint me. Glad they are experimenting and that they never stick to one thing. The goat4 points

The cover is pretty good trolling, but it makes it look like they're not taking it seriously which is a shame considering the album is great. However, it's "we won't play the new songs" that pisses me off.3 points

I'm so glad to see someone else is as deeply in love with Graffitia as I am! I've been keeping the song on repeat in the past week so much that I woke up with it stuck in my head this morning. 😁 Absolutely agree with you on the lyrics too! Your opinions match mine pretty closely. I looooove how dark Junkies is.3 points

I kinda did the same thing, when Billie mentioned motown and soul music i started to listen some of that from the 60'. Honestly i didn't find that many similarities but i discover some amazing songs. I'm stunned by Aretha Franklin singing. I'm out of breath just thinking singing like her.3 points

Good point - I'd say it boils down to the length of the album. The reused melodies make up more of the runtime because it's shorter. But either way, there quite a few of them. On the other hand, I just can't help it, the album is fun as hell.2 points

Just Billie. And he's always running into himself as he makes music with Tre and Mike from different time periods. We also learn that the Network are actually from the past but use Billies powers to go the future and live for a long time before travelling BACK to 2003. They were trying to be normal but were in the wrong decade than they thought. Oh, and they are related to Green Day.2 points

In preparation for writing a story based on Father of All, I've just discovered what could possibly be a big part of the story arc. The album is about Billie Joe traveling through time. That's why the songs sound like they are from different time periods - THEY ARE. Billie travels to these time periods, records these songs with whatever band he can get together (Mike and Tre help him in the times they exist in. In 1959 and 1960 he enlisted some mystery musicians of the famous ilk....) Billie travels first to the 70s, then returns home. He then goes to the year 3000, all the way back to 1959, takes a detour through 2002., back to the 60s, then to 2004, 2015 and finally 2009, where we leave our time-weary traveler.2 points

In Take the Money and Crawl, it sounds like the verse starts with "illegal tinder" and ends with "I don't want to fuck it".2 points

So, after one week of listening, I can say this album grew on me a lot and I'm happy that it's so much better than expected after we got the first two singles. FRA is still a weak song for me, but I like it more now. FOAM is the only song on the album I still absolutely don't like, sorry. We won't be friends in this lifetime😂 I love Graffitia, Junkies on a High, Meet Me on the Roof, Sugar Youth, Take the Money and Crawl and Oh Yeah. I can't get so much into Stab You in the Heart because it sounds like an exact copy of Hippy Hippy Shake for me. I like Teenage Teenager, but it's too long in my opinion - I don't see the point of this being the longest song on the album with 3:45, they are repeating one verse and a repetetive chorus over and over. It could have been shorter and Graffitia could have used some extra time. It has that epic, Who-esque, anthem-like feel and could totally be the Forever Now of this record with one or two extra minutes. Have I already mentioned how much I love Graffitia? So overall, I think it's a really good record with songs I like a lot. And now that I got over the shock of how dark, depressing and even suicidal some of the lyrics are, I can even dance to the songs (after the first few listens, I felt more like crying to be honest because some lyrics are truly shocking).2 points

I never said I don't like it. The only song I dont like is Oh Yeah and even that was warming on me till they started playing it live and now I hate it again. I gave the album a 6, 6 being above average which is what 5 would have been. It's simply just not the quality I have come to expect from the band but that doesn't mean I don't like it. In fact I still don't understand where some of the hatred for the album comes from. And yes, the art was done as a fuck you to people asking for another American Idiot, that's where the word insult comes in. It was cheap and in no way a creative or even good move, and now the album doesn't even get to have its own identity because of a cheap joke which isn't even funny in my opinion.1 point

Pretty sure the dude stopped by GoldenSeed before recording the video, cannot really blame him1 point

Your comment got me thinking. He once said that Lazy Bones was a song that was hard for him to perform because it was so true it made him emotional. I wonder if the same holds true for some of these darker songs and why he’s reluctant to play them live?1 point

Yeah, it has similar vibes I think but I personally prefer his little brother’s works much more lol Billie loves British bands, mentioned The Cure recently and it honestly made me happy1 point

Yes, it’s me lol Thanks! (Btw that moment was very cute from the same interview)1 point

Some of my favourite albums are albums that have been dismissed or panned by critics/reviewers/fans and a lot of albums that are considered masterpieces I just couldn't care less about1 point

I think that was later on. At some point there was an Oakland one Green Day used as a "clubhouse" but that must have closed when Pat took over.1 point
