Green Day - Saviors (January 19th, 2024) • Page 8

Sounds like it woulda fit on Rev Rad. Here for it.

 

But enough to preorder on vinyl??? Haha

 

Not yet.

I'll wait until I hear the full thing probably.

 

New song is great. Reminds me a lot of Direct Hit

 

I highly doubt they would play Dookie and American Idiot in full on this tour, but ideally I wish they would. Maybe open with American Idiot, play a few new songs / old classics, then play Dookie, then encore with 3-4 more classics. That would be the ideal setlist for me

 

But we also have to take in account the 10-20 minutes of "Hey-oooo's" that Billie Joe is gonna do, so it's unlikely Dookie and American Idiot will get played in full lol

 

At the very least I hope they keep playing Homecoming live.

 

Weird, I don't hear that at all. This feels a bit more rough around the edges, and fun than Rev Rad was. I've always wanted GD to release a side-project-like song under the Green Day banner, and we're finally here.

 

Not hearing anything "rough" on this tbh. Rob and Lord-Alge? Dunno, that's not a combo I associate with rough. Also thought Rev Rad was a lot of fun!

 

I like how this sounds a lot more than Rev Rad but I totally see it fitting on there

 

They did that a lot on the Trilogy.

 

I could easily see this one on Nimrod or Rev

 

but one that isn’t boring as shit.

 

The 4-track demo of Basket Case on the deluxe release is pretty wild

 

New single reminds me a bit of "Maria" and "Nice Guys Finish Last"

 

That bridge and then going into the last chorus on Look Ma is just so good.

 

Haha glad you guys are loving it because it actually took a few listens to grow on me. I certainly liked it on first listen but it also sounds like a pretty standard Green Day song; more listens brought out the little nuances and I love it now. I was actually gonna compare it to Maria also

American Dream is fantastic too, and I also feel the need to point out that both of the music videos have been really cool so far, which is an aspect I feel like they've barely cared about since 21st Century

 

Surprised at the positivity towards Revolution Radio on here. I thought they were phoning it in on that record.

 

RevRad rules and has always ruled.

 

nah RevRad is great

I like this song but it's definitely not as strong melodically as the ones it reminds me of (Maria, Nice Guys etc.) still about as good as they're gonna be in 2023 I guess

(wonder if Billie abruptly mentioning suicide is just a thing on every song on this album lol)

 

Also their best album cover!

 

Post American Idiot, RevRad is probably their best. Still doesn't hold a candle to the Dookie-AI run

 

revrad is *not* better than 21cb

 

their best album cover is insomniac

 

That’s debatable.
