Green Day Band • Page 78

It’s this post.
Which is so baffling

 

I’m pretty sure I made clear that I wasn’t being serious

 

oh yeah, i remember that post hahaha

 

But it’s also not thaaat far away from my actual ranking

 

If I was ever in that scenario I wouldn't even be able to speak because I'd be laughing so hard, haha.

(But if I was able to gain my composure and answer, I'd say FOAM is my personal fav, but if the armed gunman says they just want to hear paint-by-numbers/safe Green Day, then I'd say 20CB, I guess.)

 

i meant clockwise. i cannot see the other posts y'all are referring to

 

oh yeah, patty blocked me haha

 

Definitely interested in the new song but not getting my hopes up at this point.

 

Holy shit, unexpected new Green Day song releasing on my birthday!!

I really hope this is connected to an EP or something, or even an album but that may be too much to ask right now lol

 

I embraced the change in style of FOAM with open arms as we got closer to it's release. The "this doesn't sound like GD tho" complaints from others made no difference to me. My issue with FOAM isn't the sound. I just don't think it's a strong collection of songs. They can keep FOAM vibes all they want. I just want that feeling nearly every GD album has given me when I first hear it, and FOAM didn't do it for me - not even one song. It's easy to knock the trilogy for this as well and it's a deserved criticism overall, but there were at least moments throughout each of those three albums that stuck a chord with me. I'll keep trying with FOAM, but that's where I still land with it to this day - nothing about it is memorable to me. I really envy your love/dedication of it. Lol

 

Yeah, I mean, music is always hit or miss with everybody, even if it's a band you love. The only songs on FOAM I don't love are Oh Yeah, I Was A Teenage Teenager, and Junkies On A High. I legitimately really like/love the rest. It's such a fun album from them, and I am happy they are trying something different. They've had such a long career and most of their stuff doesn't stray too far away from their typical sound, so this was a welcome breath of fresh air.

 

This is the same boat I’m in. I think I would love an album with the FOAM sound but more typical Green Day hooks. As it stands it may be my least favorite Green Day album besides 1039, but none of that is the production.

In some ways it’s actually the exact opposite problem I have with the trilogy, which I’ve always thought had some great songs (Stray Heart, X Kid, Brutal Love, Lazy Bones, etc) but suffers a lot from that sterile semi-clean guitar tone and weird slapback vocals.

 

Didn't do much for me.

 

Fun jam!

 

Hard pass on this one.

 

Yeah whatever. They’re old. They had a longer run of quality material than most. I’ll always check out whatever they put out but I never expect much anymore

 

Yeah that is fine. Sounds like a filler song on an album to me. Don’t hate it, but don’t love it. Sounds a lot like a “we just wanted to get into the studio and record something together again” type song

 

I know they did The Network, but even that was probably recorded a decent amount of time before it was released

 

Yeah kind of just sounds like a b-side, it's not especially great or terrible. Solid C

 

No.

Just....no. This is an embarrassingly terrible take.

 

I'm from Buffalo and unless you're over 40, most do not care about the Goo Goo Dolls

 

goo goo dolls have 2 great albums, green day have more than that.

 

who under the age of 40 cares about green day and blink 182 lol

what argument are you making here
