Anyone else into greenday? If so what do you think of there new album? Personally I was pleased with it. I know it's been four years since their last album, and i think they delivered. It seems that they have continued on the path they set with Warning, and have tried to be a little more instrumental and have some substance to their lyrcs. I think American Idiot is a nice touch, but it seems as if they have left their punk roots totally with this album. They are more alternative or soft rock now. Music sounds solid and complete though, but after listening to the album i was left with the question, What happend to the punk?
this wasnt necesarily a bad thing, because they are getting older and it seems they are growing not only in perceptions but in their music aswell.
what does everyone else think?

Warning was a great album. They were experimenting with some new sounds and techniques. I think they did a good job with staying on the path they started with Warning, but it seems they left out all the punk, whereas Warning still had some punk essence left. Eigther way i like it, but it defenantly feels like a new greenday. Overall i would say it is a success, but after four years, there should have been alot more offered.

I hadn't really heard of green day until American Idiot came out and i loved it, along with most other people in school which is really strange because they arent into this kind of music so its gotta be pretty good
Question for those of you who listen to the radio. Besides the song American Ideot, has any of the other songs off this album made it pretty big on the radio?

are they considered the godfathers of punk or something? also, i recently found out that this band formed back in 1988, the year my baby bro was born, when they were only 14. can you believe it?
