There's a handful of songs I like, man. I don't celebrate their entire catalogue, brother, but a handful of their songs are quite nice.

And before you go off on the "old farts" I remember hearing them on the radio over ten years ago. "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" was a big radio hit for a while.

They're past the twenty-year mark of their careers, now.

I thought this was a "Green Day Sucks" thread and was going to agree. Sorry.


hey ! :evil: i agree that the 4 last years they arent as they used to. You know they got older & tried to make money. they arent the pure green day punk rock band. even on youtube they appear as alternative! thats sad cause i adored them but now im completely disappointed :( but they are still in my cd player But not in my heart. im disgusted

Greenday is working on a 45 song album. Basically 3 albums in 1. I'll listen to them, but I have a small list of their songs that I like.

I saw green day play in dublin 92 or 93. I certainly had unheard of them at that point, but needless to say they mightly impressed me. As far as I can remember dookie had not been released at that point. Very good band, and can sometimes be brilliant. Its a pity that so many american boy bands based themselves on green day, thus cheapening green days music, which is unfair, since they are the real deal.
Green day where playing punk rock before nirvana et al

Musically, Green Day has an awesome rhythm section and you have to respect that they still have the energy to tour and play the same songs that people have wanted to hear since the early 90s. I saw them once and thought that they were one of the few popular rock bands I've seen that sounded way better live than in the studio.

I would have to say "pre-Nimrod era" Green Day was bearable. Everything after they get too preachy.

it's not even punk in my book. The Ramone's, now that's punk. CGBG's in 1978...that's punk. Green Day? Not so much.
