Popular Post alecandstuff Posted September 21 Popular Post Share Posted September 21 I’m not sure who would want to hear this, but I just checked tonight and American Idiot has been mixed and released in Dolby Atmos on Apple Music ….it sounds incredible. There’s so many little details in this version that you simply don’t hear as well or at all in any other version. Highly recommend for AI fanatics like myself 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petros Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Never was a fun of those "Dolby vision" versions etc. I like to hear the music through good open back headphones as it was supposed to be from the band. I understand how the concept is cool though. The anniversary album still isn't available for me on apple music though do we know in how many hours it's supposed to be out or is my app glitched? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the sentiment, though I’d argue the record isn’t exactly “as it was meant to be heard” since it, as well as many other albums of that era (and even now), they’re all heavily compressed to the point I’d say you actually LOSE detail Of course it’s a matter of preference, but the fact is this format does allow more space to hear the full performance, given you have a great person behind the boards. In this case, it’s CLA who this forum loves already lol Either way, this version is a great listen for those who want a little more dynamic AI listen. WMUWSE in particular, rules! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roquer Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 I suppose this was talked before in this thread, but everytime I head the "demos", I can't think in other thing more than "Sound more like an alternate mix rather than the demos". If this are the demos, are almost as polished as the album, just a few more things here and there and the lyrics have minor changes, to my ears at least. If I have time, I would check the whole thread just to see your impressions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillenniumFan Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Dolby atmos version sounds pretty interesting. Doesn't beat the 2009 180g vinyl re-issue or 2012 HDTracks masterings though. I think those are still the best this album has ever sounded imo. EDIT: Give Me Novacaine and She's a Rebel sound incredible though. That sweet sweet bass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DookieLukie Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Would I need wired headphones to benefit from Atmos? I have a USB connection for my Bluetooth over-ears but not sure what tech is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sweet sweet bass I love that you actually get to hear the bass way more across this version, even the orchestral hits during the latter half of JoS. So many bright spots to this version, I’m so happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alekshf96 Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 I was messing around using VPN to check out what's available and not by Green Day on Spotify, when i used Japan i came across this American Idiot and it must be a new "new" release based on the number of listeners, is this something that might be released worldwide the next few days?, or is it more like a Japan exclusive? https://postimg.cc/4nYxxdDk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flynn Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 If you make your spotify region set in Japan, you will be able to access the separated tracks on American Idiot, looks like not many people are onto it with how little listens they have so far 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy1986 Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago So far the nimrod and insomniac anniversaries to me were more exciting…so many of these new or unheard AI songs have already been released (shoplifter/favorite son/govemator) and some of the soon to be live songs have already been released as well….looking forward to 21st Century Breakdown anniversary addition that should be interesting 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
