Personally I have very high standards to Green Day, and if I rated Trans Am 7/10, that means it is a pretty good EP. The most beautiful thing is, Green Day doesn't owe us nothing, but they just keep releasing good tracks, and they.. just.. don't let me to stop falling in love with them. I am very excited for the album, and to sum up this year, we got some nice tunes with FOAM, covers and Fink's gang. It was not their best, of course, but they nailed the quarantine darker vibes. It is just my "thank you" post. 2020 was not that bad because of Green Day.

Even funnier since Mike is literally just average height, only in the context of Green Day would he ever be called tall.

One more day that my order on GD UK site didn't shipped.

They just flip through English dictionaries to write songs. Thay explains why their pronunciation is so bad.

I LOVE THAT COVER!!!

I like the I'm a classically trained pianist part. Reminds me of his comment about playing the xylophone

Ooh, I know! It's Dent Feznor! I love his band Four and a Half Inch Screws.

I recently listened to all the original songs Billie covered and found he didn't really stray from them. He does a good job covering them but it would've been cool if he did something crazy with a few of them. Add his twist to it.

"The tall one in the band Green Day" 😂

Reminds me of Aaron Cometbus's devastatingly accurate comments on a Green Day photoshoot he witnessed on tour with them:

So glad we're not waiting as long for this as we did for FOAMF. The massive gap between the first single and release totally killed the hype

I read the beginning of this in the Unread Content overview and the last word before it was cut was “heavy” so I had no idea what this was about. I was thinking “what??? is Jen talking about heroin ” I agree vinyl is rather inconvenient compared to CDs or streaming music, but it’s so nice, makes listening to music a nice ritual and the sound is great. It’s expensive though.

Didn't know that was from the same shoot. Makes a lot of sense, though. They are both very "clowny", which I do not like at all. 😖 Now these were great ones.

Probably, considering they say that they don’t speak a lick of English, yet make their songs entirely in English.

I dunno, for some reason it really does it for me. Now THIS is a stupid photoshoot.

My 64GB iPad told me today that I have too many photos or screenshots on it; I don’t ever take photos with it, they are all screenshots. I think it thinks I’m married to this guy with green eyes and loads of tattoos 😂😂😂

Same here as well

Was kind of hoping we’d get a fun little tease this week every day until the album drop

Totally not me. *deletes camera roll hurriedly*

The zoom-in on his hands while he was talking killed me.🤣

DILF Trent is very yes. Just so...... *lost in thought* ...ANYWAY! I was watching this video yesterday and just thinking Damn...Billie looks sooooooo good!

DILF Trent... I could see that. But yeah, Billie is hawt. Dad I'd Like to Fuck.

Sigh I wanna get back in bed and look at pictures of Billie and [REDACTED]. I'm so tired.

Yeah most of them are identical to the original songs, which is fine, but I would've loved if he revamped a few of the songs.

I heard Dreaming on the radio the other day and it seemed identical until the vocals came in.

Yeah vinyl is an expensive hobby, but there's something about owning albums you cherish on vinyl. I can't really explain it. That's why I save vinyl purchases for bands and albums that mean a lot to me.

Well, my birthday is at the end of January - hopefully I'll have it by then!

I on the other hand remember trying to keep needles clean, buying the right replacements, trying to move easily damaged and very heavy vinyl etc etc. I have no romantic notion about it at all but I do love the look of some of the new coloured ones. If I do miss anything, it’s sitting with a big, fold out album cover to study while listening to a new, whole album. Crap for wearing in the gum though 😂😂 Oh cool, thanks, that’s hilarious and adorable at the same time!

Everybody in bandages is Van Gough now.

I pre-ordered FOAM 5 months before it was released and didn't get it until 2 months to the day after the album came out.

I mean they look ok but yes it is stupid, that’s the one I meant, have you seen/got the cover?

So the album pre-order is on Friday?

I think our mail carrier scanned all packages before they actually started delivering them. I absolutely hate it when they do that. And it's happened to me before. Says it's "delivered" in the morning, but I'll get it late afternoon. So I hope it arrives today. I also told the security desk to let the carrier know about the missing suite number and where it should go just in case. I would hope that the carrier would, you know, just read the company name and realize there's other mail for the same suite, but I honestly don't trust that.

Oh don't feel bad!! I'm sure we've all been there. Omg I love it Hey, I'm trying to spare the fangirls! I understand, [REDACTED] is not everyone's type here. And I feel bad for clogging up Billie and Kevin's space with so much [REDACTED] convo (it's not my fault he's sexy af)

Nice try 😂😂😂

Oh wow! I didn't realize how that sounded That is not what I meant! [REDACTED] stands for a certain industrial icon I cannot shut up about who is not even in Green Day. It rhymes with Bent Keznor. (and of course a song by Keznor randomly pops up on shuffle right as I finished typing that. I think he's haunting me.)

They have great shoes.

Well.. that and COVID-19 pushing back the tour.

I had to say 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Baaahahahahha https://www.instagram.com/p/CIMxz--hwUT/?igshid=j0ltl5gyev50

I think Kids of America is my favourite track on there ... and listening to the original (which I wasn’t familiar with) I couldn’t have imagined it being much more different! But also cool ... in its very 80s way!

I mean, t.A.T.u. barely spoke a word of English yet managed to release three (four) fully English albums.

That gives me hope! Thank you

Yep, why did they make Billie 10 feet tall? Not only that’s he’s wearing those red/black striped trousers which he looks amazing in and we can only see half a leg 😈😈

This is the first time I've pre-ordered something from GD tbh. I only did it because I thought it was a limited release through the site - and when I saw it was sold out on the American site, I got spooked and bought it off the UK. I know the glow cover art will be different, but next time I'll probs just hit up my local record shop that had lots of the blue indie version. Sometimes they even get the albums early (I remember getting UNO on vinyl almost a week before it was released).

Well I bought it in a shop here in New Zealand yesterday, so I think it's a pretty big release.

I like the sound quality over compressed streaming so it was still worth it to me but it was cheaper at Amazon I didn't pay full price

I can hardly believe, after this shitty year, that we had an EP one Friday, a new CD the next one, ok I know we have already heard the songs, and a new LP coming next Friday!

Omg that VMA gif, no words 🔥🔥🔥💥

The idea got me inspired; went out and bought the supplies to make a Fink mask once I got out of work, but he rescinded the offer by the time I got to post it. fml
