I don't care about Fantano but if you judge an album by a critic guy on Youtube without even giving it a listen then you can't have an opinion on an album.

Anyone else think it's just a bit bland?

It's not bland because it IS bland.  Green Day have never done a bland song before so they are seeing if it's a good sound.

Just spotted this as i joined a two hour work call :(

Is this the same song that was featured in the Billie studio clip at the weekend. 

Work call over and i’ve listened to these 3 times now.

 

i love it.

 

Love the little synth part/sample.

Honestly? A bit. I think crunchier guitars and less vocal filter could help. But at least there’s a message being conveyed and actual lyrics to chew on. It’s not “pump-ass” (to use an old GDC-ism) but Billie’s approaching 50, he’s probably going to mellow a bit. I don’t necessarily see that as a bad thing. Just as long as he’s writing songs about something, unlike HCTS.

Actually not. The pre-chorus and the bridge are very interesting. But I think that the contrast between the verse guitars and the chorus guitars could be bigger, so it sounds more exiting

I am praying for a new concept album like AI or 21CB for years now. There is so much to „say“ nowadays. I hope someday they will put all their energy and all their statements in one last huge concept album!

I wanted to take a some time to listen to it and digest, but overall I like it. It's poppy for sure, but no hand claps (!) and the little whistle at the end is some nice unexpected ear candy.

Overall, I like it and it will be played. I might even add it to my workout playlist for a nice tempo change.

It's a simple song but also it's a really well crafted song.   It also captures a feeling I can relate to.  It plays to his strengths.

This is how it should sound with good production:

my issues with the last two tracks are the lazy production and the generic playing.

My theory is that they saw how passionate their fans are about bratwurst so they decided to entertain the idea.

Well, it was released with the hella mega (re)announcement thats happening at ballparks, and hotdogs are consumed (in mass) at said venues. That's my non-conspiracy.

 

Or what Beerjeezus said above 🤷‍♀️

And this bratwurst was crafted by the best specifically for this artwork.

BBQ album confirmed, the hot dog was just the starter! 😄

It all started with Bratwurst, which was continued by my one-liner Bratwurst in Your Coffeemaker, and ended with a sausage picture on Green Day video? Are you serious? This is the most awesome thing that happened this year. 

Now, what's next? Amyl nitrate merchandise?

70% of Network songs were better than this and Billie hid them with a side project. Why?

Can you let him know to not put HCTS too????

Here come's the shock is better and more Greendayish

Posted

HCTS blew FRA out of the water in terms of how bad can a GD song get, so now I’m only dreading whatever is going to make HCTS “not that bad after all”.

In Discogs web is said the song Pollyana was released in Crush music records, this Green day has broken with warner definitely?

Because he often throws away his best songs

I don’t think they have, they just have a differently structured deal now with more freedom to release whatever they want
