Hey thanks! i finally saw this topic and i just needed to finally make an account. And after 35 minutes of torture and agony, the download is almost done.
iScottie Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Love: 1. Bang Bang 2. Revolution Radio 3. Outlaws 4. Still Breathing 5. Too Dumb to Die 6. Troubled Times 7. Forever Now 8. Ordinary World Like: 1. Say Goodbye 2. Bouncing Off the Walls 3. Youngblood Dislike: 1. Somewhere Now Overall thoughts: 1. The musical arrangements on this album, especially on Troubled Times, are some of their most original. 2. The overall atmosphere of the album perfectly captures the world we are currently living in. 3. Still Breathing is the greatest song of the album and one of the best songs of their entire careers. 4. This album rocks, blew all of my expectations, and I can't wait to pick it up. 5. There better be another North American leg of the tour.
Stefano Bras Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 For me, this album feels like a logical evolution from the rock operas and the trilogy. They created something very especial.
HAPPY ZOMBIE UNICORN Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. FUCKING YES X 12

ColinOr Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 First impression: I can already tell that it's going to be one of the albums people hate, hahaha. If people moan about Warning, 21st Century Breakdown, Uno, Dos and Tre they'll DEFINITELY moan about this one, haha. Some really strong songs on there, going to listen the shit out of it before giving a proper verdict, but it's definitely different, Green Day are always trying new things and this new album is no exception.

If looks like some people on here are like oh no only 7 of the songs are really good this record is only average. Im hearing a lot of positives about somewhere now, say goodbye and ordinary world which is making me excited. Well if I compare it to Uno I am dissapointed. It's just not an album that I would play from start to finish, it has way too many skipable tracks. Uno for comparison was perfect from start to finish. I am bothered by the production. The songs are way too loud and you can't really hear the vocals that well. The transitions are also a bit amateurish. To me it sounds like they tried to hard. Way too many effects and all.
Stefano Bras Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 I guess it kinda sucks that the best songs are probably Bang Bang and Still Breathing but they were the best single options and there are many beauties in there (Outlaws, Youngblood, Forever Now) so I'm not complaining.

WestboundSign96 Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 For real, this album is fucking awesome. It takes a little from 90's and 00's Green Day and gives it a fresh modern feel.
Joe. Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Just finished the whole album, don't think we could've got anything better than that (other than something of American Idiot's magnitude). For me this is the best post AI release
stories and songs Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 The mixed reception is hyping me up. Some of their best work is divisive. From what I'm reading, I feel like I'm going to love this.
madjungman Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Somewhere Now - 21st Century Breakdown Bang Bang - St. Jimmy Revolution Radio - Murder City Say Goodbye - Holiday Outlaws - WMUWSE + Wild Ones Bouncing Off The Wall - Horseshoes and Handgrenades Still Breathing - ? Youngblood - Know Your Enemy Too Dumb to Die - ? Troubled Time - ? Forever Now - JOS or Homecoming or Dirty Rotten Bastards Ordinary World - Amy Agree? I mean just first impression.
Teenage Lush Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 i'm kind of surprised by the complaints. it's definitely not what i was expecting but it's pure green day, if 21st century breakdown and warning had a baby the result would be rev rad.
Youngblood123 Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 youngblood is an amaing track. it gives off the happy song vibes.

People moan about everything, honestly. It's never gonna please everyone. I'm encouraged by the comparisons to 21CB, considering it's probably my favourite album.

Zencik Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Surprised by the mixed reception. I love it! Very different than what I was expecting, but it's their best work since American Idiot by far! So good I can actually forgive them for the trilogy!
Stefano Bras Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 Definitely hearing the Warning vibes like lots of people have said, it's a very unique album. Say Goodbye is very good on a second listen. Spoiler POST 1000 WOOOOOOHOOOO. Loving RevRad so far.

Uno was much more evidently edited (?) the vocal filters were very prominent, I wouldn't say there's anything like that on RR

Ordinary World is also Good Riddance, but yeah pretty much agreed.
