Libertine Angel Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Wild One's not bad. Not good, but not bad. Quote
Todd Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 This morning I found a Wild One drawing that I made before Dos came out, I usually save all of my work, but this one I just ripped up and threw out. 1 Quote
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I like Wild One. Probably like it more than the two-thirds of the trilogy I never listen to. 1 Quote
Hermione Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Wild One is trippy fabulousness, probably my favourite Dos song. 2 Quote
mrduckygoosy Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Wild One is trippy fabulousness, probably my favourite Dos song. Does being a favourite one in an album such as Dos actually mean something haha ? 1 Quote
colour_me_stupid_ Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I think I know which one Wild One is and I don't like it. 1 Quote
Guest Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I think I know which one Wild One is and I don't like it. I like how you're not even sure which song we're talking about Quote
HARVESTER Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Enough about the Trilogy... when are they coming out with a new album?- oh wait... that opinion might be popular! Quote
The Disappearing Boy Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Everyone bangs on about how good the Wild One solo is - is it even that great? Quote
Guest Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Everyone bangs on about how good the Wild One solo is - is it even that great? Can't be, I know I've listened to the song and I forgot there was even a solo in it. Quote
Sauli Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I like how you're not even sure which song we're talking about I think that's enough said about the song. Even though the words wild and one are constantly repeated in the song, people still don't know which song we're talking about. Reveals something very telling about its memorability. 2 Quote
Hermione Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Does being a favourite one in an album such as Dos actually mean something haha ? Dos is one of my favourite Green Day albums so in my case yes Everyone bangs on about how good the Wild One solo is - is it even that great?I suppose it probably isn't technically great or anything, sounds pretty simple, but it packs some emotion and sounds cool and satisfying. I think the best Green Day guitar solo ever is in The One I Want though, definitely the most emotionally affecting for me. Also it's an extremely underrated song and the best on 1,039/SOSH. Is this an unpopular opinion? 1 Quote
Jollyroger118 Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Wild One is trippy fabulousness, probably my favourite Dos song. Yay! I've said that from the star but it always got shot down, if it had been on Demolicious it'd be one of my favorite albums Quote
Libertine Angel Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Also it's an extremely underrated song and the best on 1,039/SOSH. Is this an unpopular opinion? It's one of the best on 1039, definitely top 5, but I think I'd put Paper Lanterns, Going to Pasalacqua and 409 In Your Coffeemaker above it. Quote
Anaïs. Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Just listened to 21CB on vinyl, so I'm gonna bring this one up again—LOTAG and Murder City are incredibly boring and the worst songs on the album. Quote
Sauli Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Just listened to 21CB on vinyl, so I'm gonna bring this one up again—LOTAG and Murder City are incredibly boring and the worst songs on the album. Agreed on Murder City but LOTAG is actually quite good. Know Your Enemy and especially Christian's Inferno are the worst ones. 1 Quote
Z J Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Just listened to 21CB on vinyl, so I'm gonna bring this one up again—LOTAG and Murder City are incredibly boring and the worst songs on the album. I'll agree with LOTAG. I don't know what that song is trying to do honestly. It has a nice guitar riff, I'll give it that. Quote
Anaïs. Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Agreed on Murder City but LOTAG is actually quite good. Know Your Enemy and especially Christian's Inferno are the worst ones. KYE is site lyrically but has energy, Inferno makes great use of dynamics on an otherwise Loudness War album and has some good bits of lyrics. LOTAG has some absolutely word salad lyrics and is just dull. Quote
Chin for a Day Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Agreed on Murder City but LOTAG is actually quite good. Know Your Enemy and especially Christian's Inferno are the worst ones. I can't get through Christian's Inferno in its entirety without turning it off. I switch at the first whoa. I do like LOTAG. Quote
Guest Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 KYE is site lyrically but has energy, Inferno makes great use of dynamics on an otherwise Loudness War album and has some good bits of lyrics. LOTAG has some absolutely word salad lyrics and is just dull. didn't someone just say we needed not to have tension and fighting between us right now? And then you go and drop this on me? Quote
Z J Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Everyone bangs on about how good the Wild One solo is - is it even that great? It's slow, barely has a melody and the lyrics are all over the place "She Little wild one She's covered in angels And demons and halos now" This implying something has happened, with the "now", which he uses throughout, yet the only possible explanation we get as to what happened is: "She gave up on Jesus for living on Venus All dressed up with nowhere to go I'm drinking the Kool-Aid, I jumped on the grenade Now that my mind's gonna blow, hello" The individual sections of lyrics do not seem like they're even talking about the same thing. They're disconnected. 1 Quote
Libertine Angel Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I don't get the hate for Christian's Inferno, what's wrong with it? And yeah, LOTAG, KYE and Murder City I think are the weakest on the album, but KYE and Murder City have some good energy. LOTAG...I like it, but I can't pinpoint exactly why. Quote
Sauli Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 The only good thing about Christian's Inferno is the title. Otherwise, the verse melody is non-existent, the chorus is repetitive and horrendously generic and banal, and the sound is shitty. The lyrics are ok, I guess. I agree on the dullness of the lyrics of LOTAG ut it's musically quite good. Also, if Kye is good because it has merely got energy, you could as well go and listen to something shite like Kiss. Energy alone is not enough, thought it's decent live. 1 Quote
Z J Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Know Your Enemy gets a pass from me because live it kicks ass. The energy is undeniable. I always skip it, but if you're there in person to see it live then it has undeniable allure Quote
Chin for a Day Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I don't get the hate for Christian's Inferno, what's wrong with it? I think the style is very disjointed. First, Billie talks the verses. The verses are angry almost violent. Then it turns into this horribly, juvenile, repetitive chorus. The verses and the chorus don't fit. 1 Quote
