Green Day

[Martin.]

lol, all that doesn't stop them making awful music...

[_all_is_well_]

Well you have the right to not like them, BUT I doubt you have even heard of 1039 smoothed out slappy hours or Kerplunk or dookie or insomniac or nimrod which all are wonderfull alblums.

Its kind of like someone whos heard A Thousand Miles but hasnt hears of Harmonium saying Vanessa makes horrible pop shit, which isnt true.

So go ahead and dislike Green Day but they make wonderfull music. Its more mature now but its still good.

um, yeah i actually have most of their material (particularly their earlier stuff). i just think they've gotten progressively worse - especially in the last few years.

[_all_is_well_]

Hmm somehow I doubt someone who dislikes the band really has heard their earlier stuff , unless you were old enough when Dookie came out to hear it and listen to their older stuff (which you would only do if you liked them!) or you lived in Berkeley California and were listening to their EPs before Dookie (same here).
What youve heard (or the early stuff you referring to is) Basket Case & Longview Right? Ya and thats probably about it.
Have you ever heard Going to Pasalaqua, At the Library, Christie Road, 2000 Light Years Away, or Andriod? No, or have you? And If you have your most likely one of those people who boycotted Green Day because of American Idiot. Maybe your a republican and dont like the politics of Green Day? What I  know is if you didnt at one point like Green Day you would not have heard 39 smooth or kerplunk and probably you havent heard anything but singles from dookie and maybe youve heard walking contradiction. (which is a very good song)
I know not everyone like the same thing and everyone has different tastes---- BUT you must have liked them at some point to have heard MOST of their older stuff... Becuase why would you listen to MOST of a bands songs if you dont like the band?
So what about them dont you like, I mean you really seem to hate them...
All im saying is you hate them with a passion and have listened to most of their songs? --Doubt it.

where did I say I "hate them with a passion"? all my post said was "they suck" - which imo, they do. get over it.

do not patronize me. I used to be a huge fan mannny years ago and have heard almost all of their catalogue.

their recent stuff is shit, therefore they suck. it's my opinion. deal with it.

I never said you said that. BUT I did make my point, you like"d'' their old stuff (their best stuff). You probably still do but you just cant get over the fact that they've changed.
I dont really like their new alblum either, I was hopeing I would becuase I did like AI, but that means they suck? --no.
I already told you believe what you want, but i like arguements, i dont expcet to change you opinion.
But they dont suck, and you know it, you were a fan. so "get over it'
--
If you dont get what im saying: imagine that Vanessa starts rapping and someone says "she sucks", well no she doesnt, its just that person doesnt like her rap. (i know that would never happen im just makeing an example).

"they suck" - present tense. in the last five+ years, their stuff has disapponted me over & over again. they can never be as good as they once were, sadly.

I don't even think they're as good musicians as they once were either. it's all simple, repetative shit now.

DO YOU KNOW THE ENEMY? Yes, it is Green Day. hahaha

I hate their new music. Sorry, have to agree with Martin. They are American Idiots if anyone is....

*Sigh*

It's my opinion. They're no longer good. So in other words; they suck. That's all. Sorry if offends you or whatever, but it's my opinion and I'm sticking to it!

What's with all the Green Day hate?

I enjoy their latest album. True, I don't like it as much as their other stuff, but I still think it's musically and lyrically sound, and not "OMG TERRIBLE!!!1"

to each his (or her) own, I guess. *shrugs*
