Saviors (édition de luxe) - Out May 23rd !!

[jengd]

I feel like the two acoustic tracks probably are demos.

After spending a few days with the new tracks, I've gotta say my initial impression still holds up.

Ballyhoo is easily the standout. It's the catchiest, feels the most polished, and just hits right. I've been listening to it nonstop.  Belushi comes in second for me. It also feels complete and the energy is great. No wonder these two were the singles.

The rest I have more mixed feelings about. Underdog is pretty good. Gives off some Trilogy or Longshot vibes, which I love. That one takes third place. I absolutely love the arrangement and overall feel of Stay Young, but that long, repetitive chorus really drags it down. If it had a stronger chorus, it might've tied for first, but as it stands, I'll place it fourth.

Then there's Fuck Off. Fun, sure, but kind of forgettable. So yeah, that's at the bottom of my list.

As for the acoustic versions... well, they sure are songs that exist.

There's a clean version of the album Tre as well, and Missing You's Fbomb has an unique edit.

Question: I've seen some people mention Underdog's different mixing and... is this something everyone can pick up on, or is it mostly noticeable to people who work with music? Honestly, they all sound pretty similar to me. But I'll admit I'm also not great at noticing that sort of thing.

Same for me. Sometimes I really wonder if I‘m stupid not to hear any difference when obviously all the others can…😅

Same here lol. Sometimes a production is really bad I'll notice it but in most cases when people are complaining about it I'm like....I thought it sounded okay 🤷🏽

Definitely not something everyone can pick up. I've been listening to Green Day for 20 years and there are things people pick up that I wouldn't in a million years. Even if i notice something or think something is different or not what I'd prefer in mixing, i could never pinpoint it in most cases.

First time i had a problem with the production was the Trilogy, specifically with Billie's vocals
Thankfully he sounds better than ever now.
