Harry Potter. Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 Sounds very meh in context of the album.
Jacqattack95 Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 i think its catchy. i really like the melody and the sound of the guitars
alecandstuff Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 It's been compared to AI and 21CB dozens of times already, and that's no coincidence. It sounds like it could have easily been written during either era, both instrumentally and lyrically! If you're a fan of either album (or both!) I don't see what there could be to dislike about this track

I don't see what there could be to dislike about this track AI and 21CB are my two favorite, but I think this is one of the weaker tracks on the Rev Rad. I still like it, but I don't know that I can really describe why I think it is weaker. Maybe because compared to the o ther tracks on teh album it is just not that unique

solongfromthestars Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 Oh wow the European store finally replied to me and sent the download for this. Took them long enough
inthehallwaynow Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 this is my favorite song on the album
AmyxLongview Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 This one is still a 5/5 for me. It has that classic Green Day sound

Took them long enough Aren't the digital pre-orders great? I pre-ordered Andy Black's The Shadow Side in April, and the final single was Beautiful Pain, but I didn't get the download for it until a week after it was released. Moot point. Also, this song has been stuck in my head for literal days... I'll be working and start humming to realize it's the chorus from RevRad haha
Dado_xx91 Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Check it out my new guitar cover of "Revolution Radio"
Slash Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Its ok, It din't appeal to me that much, Im not a fan of KYE, but when it came out, it was on repeat for me.
Maddie86 Posted October 1, 2016 Posted October 1, 2016 I got the new issue of Entertainment Weekly today and this song made to the number 4 spot of their "15 Fresh Songs For Fall". "with its monstrous riffs, radio-ready chorus, and incendiary political message, this recalls American Idiot in all the right ways" Also, my friend's 6 year old daughter sang this song for me last night haha. She said vasoline instead of gasoline, it was hilarious
ElmoGreenDay Posted October 7, 2016 Posted October 7, 2016 This feels like the GD we know and love! By far my favourite on the album.
spark in the night Posted October 7, 2016 Posted October 7, 2016 I keep having mixed feelings. It's catchy but the lyrics bug me

It's catchy but the lyrics bug me Definitely, I love most of the music behind me but the lyrics are such generic cliché revolution fare I just cringe. Also how does "my love's bulletproof" fit in with the rest of the song? The chorus feels like he was just sticking random rhyming phrases together.

PursuitOfEpicness Posted October 16, 2016 Posted October 16, 2016 The more I listen to it the more I like and it's one of the ones that are really getting stuck in my head.
St. Jonny Posted October 16, 2016 Posted October 16, 2016 This is fun as hell to play on guitar. Good lyrics, one of my favorites off the album! The solo is awesome, makes you feel like you are soaring through the sky or something.
Stefano Bras Posted October 16, 2016 Posted October 16, 2016 The weakest on the album... and that's a compliment! Really fun song to play and sounds like the best bits of the Trilogy.
Tubbie Head Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Every day I've been waking up with either this song or Bouncing Off the Wall in my head! Love it more and more every listen!

It really shows that I truly loved the Trilogy when my favourite songs on this album are the ones that would fit in there the better! Truth is I really don't care much about lyrics anymore. I'm more up for the fun and musical power of songs

Clockwise Posted October 22, 2016 Posted October 22, 2016 I honestly like this song more and more. I just think it's a masterfully written power pop tune!
moonj17 Posted November 8, 2016 Posted November 8, 2016 I feel sorry for this song. I don't think it's getting the love it deserves. It's not my favorite, but I've liked it since the first listen. It's catchy, fun to sing along to, great when they perform it live, and sounds very GD-ish. It's surprising to me that it doesn't seem to be very well liked, especially in the results of the poll. It certainly isn't one of the worst songs on the album, in my opinion.
