Magnum Opus Of The Inglorious Kind - confirmed NOT to be Green Day

I'm loving these songs for what they are, I really appreciate the concept and work they put into them, as fans, to make them sound as much like Green Day as possible, but not any Green Day, the best Green Day they could think of. So I find it really cool to listen and analize the songs with that in mind. It's just so interesting!

I get where you are coming from, but I genuinely believe that Panicland wanted to make a fan fiction album first and foremost. sure they mentioned the prank quite a bit in the video, but I believe that there's more to it than that, and this was something they wanted to do.

If they didn't give a crap about the songs or the work they had done creating them, there was nothing stopping them from being like "Well that was a funny prank, LOL" and throwing the songs in the trash and moving on, the fact that they didn't do that and are actually releasing the album for not only them but us GD fans really makes me respect the work they have done even more, and I am going to keep an eye on their stuff from now on because of it.

I am not saying they didn’t put a lot of effort and passion in what they did, because they clearly did. But it’s still a project made to sound like 21CB, with melodies and lyrics written with that scope. The music Panicland actually does is what they publish under their name. As they say in the video this was an exercise to sound like GD. To me it’s a cool but fake memberberry, if you manage to relate to those lyrics and music I am happy for you, it’s always nice finding music to relate to :)

Panicland saw a track list that was "obviously fake".    But how would they even know?  We all thought the Rev Rad track list was fake so.............

Dollywhoops!

There has been a very strange vibe ever since the FOAM and Hella Mega announcement, and Billie saying strange things in interviews (not liking long songs anymore or wanting to sound like Prince "because he's dead, so why not?!") constantly adds up to this. It just feels like the boys are not really behind this project and don't really care, and even if they do, I can't shake off these feelings.

God, this. They give me the impression too that they don't really care about this album. Something about their attitude, their approach to this whole thing is very different from previous eras and it doesn't sit well with me at all. They're not even acting like themselves. If FOAM is truly all they intended to put out there, it's just sad. It's also sad that a band who is not them who has a lot less resources made a better sounding record than they did and has a more positive reception with those who know about it - if they intentionally half assed FOAM to make something better later, maybe they feel sad about that too. But also, if they dont seem to care about FOAM, why should I? 😕

 

Btw,

Panicland told me on Reddit that they dont mind if we download the Soundcloud songs. I have downloaded those that already are available and added the cover and track information and whatever is necessary.

Hit me up if you want them (preferably PM) and I'll send you a Drive link. Then we can pretend this is an actual release :)

@Panicland is online. Rome is about to fall

 

At least I hope so :(

Hell, I would probably care about it a bit more if the cover art wasn't so purposefully bad. They have been posting promotional images and shit on social media that are far better than a cheap defaced American idiot cover. It's such an iconic album and the fact that they just slap a unicorn on it and call it a day annoys the fuck out of me. I get that it's probably supposed to, but they should take it at least a little bit more seriously and try to at least pass this off as if they care about the album a tiny bit.

Lyrics:

Spoiler

Fight for me

Gonna take over the world someday

You want a King, someone to obey

Youre looking for someone to trust

Want someone that gives a fuck

 

I could be your solution now

I could save the world somehow

I will be your Savior too
I will tell you what to do

 

Go ahead, go ahead
Follow me into the battle

Until youre dead, go ahead

Follow me, just follow me

I want to see the blood you bleed for me

Fight for Honor, Fight for Glory
Fight for me

 

Your prayers have been answered
So shut up, I want to be heard

Take a sword, plunge into war

I am someone to die for

 

I will be your prophet, yeah

Raise your arms into the air

Hear my sermon, sing with me

I am who you want to be

 

Go ahead, go ahead
Follow me into the battle

Until youre dead, go ahead

Follow me, just follow me

I want to see the blood you bleed for me

Fight for Honor, Fight for Glory
Fight for me

 

Go ahead...


I want to watch you burn tonight

I want to see you die tonight
 

For me

Very nice! Feels quite thematic and it has a very catchy chorus.

My next album may be Green Day inspired.  While they are my musical obsession, it doesn't really come out in my music. 

My lyrics are bad poems I wrote as a teenage teenager over music I paste together with lazy bones production.

The way I do it is pretty punk rock, but I've been told it sounds more like Sting (as an insult, but I took it as a compliment.....Sting is totally punk!!!!)

I've made some Nirvana inspired songs, but I'd really like to Shoot for the moon ( into the stars) like these guys have done.

I don't have the confidence I can sound anything like Green Day, but that is changing as my following on Soundcloud grows each day.  

I could be the next Billie Eilish! 

 

I hope this inspires a whirlwind of copycats both famous and not famous and every month or so we get these suspicious possible Green Day records and we never know which ones are real. 

Imagine a GDA where there 20 posts like this one!

Good song man :) Very "Glorious"! I would reduce a little bit of verb or cut a bit of lows from it and maybe use a dynamic Eq around the 2-4Kand 6-7Khz in the chorus to control the areas! Just a suggestion!

in the end the real green day was the stuff we wrote ourselves

There’s nothing to understand for me, no emotions to transmit, this has not been composed because that’s what Panicland wanted to compose as a band and as artists. And personally I feel this listening to those songs :) 

I've also sort of felt like that because while the Panicland songs that have been released so far are very anthemic imo and I do genuinely like them, it's also hard for me to really enjoy them as much as I would otherwise because it's obvious they are really trying to sound like green day. 

I thought it was strange that so many people (the people I have in mind are people that really enjoy GD's sociopolitical content) were ripping apart the lyrics of FOAM (the title track) as being like pointless or something that doesn't sound like them, as I always thought it was extremely sociopolitical. BJA even said there was implied political content on the Howard Stern show. The only part of it that I really have a problem with is the studio vocals but that's just my taste lol

Another testament to how green day is truly great, they inspired so many people in their own musical endeavors, but everyone's still gonna be like, "this is bc of green day." what legends. they're my favorite band for a reason 🤩

Yeah I agree that it's not possible to "feel" the lyrics the same way as I would with legit Green Day, because knowing this was mainly meant to sound like them, it seems kind of pointless to dissect the lyrics too deeply, but I still enjoy the songs. I can't really say there's a huge difference between mootik and some less-deep green day, except for the knowledge that mootik is pure form and not comparable to green day in terms of content as an authentic expression of Billie's writing.

Us: Free Green Day album, mmm tasty

I really wish I could figure out what fake Billie is saying after this line, every time I try to figure it out I get this mental image of real Billie singing this line and start laughing at how ridiculous (in a good way) it would be.

To the extent of my knowledge we've got Take a Stand, Dont Patronize Me, and part of Burn it All, and we're getting Rome Falls... anyone know what the other 2 are?

We need them lyrics. I think the Song is about trump (I hear the word mexico (but not the lyrics before that 😕)- and "dont wanna shake your hand" could be about baby-trump not wanting to shake merkels hands
