Yes.. Greenday's new Stuff is utter Crap. I didn;t like their old stuff and i generally hate them, but their new stuff Is just.. BAD..
I think they're better now...
Nah I hate them now they used to be alot better before they turned poppy. What you get though is this greenday 'fans' who think they knew what greenday were like before but only started listening to them when this new crap came out.
I liked the 'old' greenday. Basket Case and Longview are much better than American Idiot and Holiday..
May i ask why? ;\Quote:

I hate them, but i agree that their old stuff is better
But by all means listen to them, it has no impact on my life :]
Agree with you totally, apart from the last bit. I would rephrase it as "Don't listen to them because it has a huge impact on my life because you offend me"Quote:

I must say this every time this is brought up... Dookie is their best album... it isnt even a competion with any other.
And really, it isnt the actuall band that gets me mad, its the fans. The ones who request green day songs when they were just played on the radio. The ones who werent aware that green day has been around before american idiot (and once they figure it out, they dont even try listening older stuff because it would be 'out of date')
Anyway, if they go back to singing about drinking chemicals, ************ and watching too much TV, I will be forever happy. Not getting my hopes up though.
Their new stuff annoys me because it was over-played to death. I'm not overly-mad about their old stuff either although Longview is a piece of genius. Hitchin' A Ride is fab too. I personally prefer blink-182 and Sugarcult tbh...
I like their old and most of their new.
But I prefer the old :]
Honestly, I don't like ANY Green Day, but if I had to choose, it'd be the older ones... The new ones annoy the heck out of me -.-
Well said ;DQuote:

But still, they havent changed too much in my opinion.
Oh, theyve changed a lot. Now their songs have meaning-- what the hell? I liked it when they were about nothing... now its political.
I agree with you 110% in America atleast 1-5 people are obsessed with Greenday because they learned that there is other music than rap or pop.Quote:

But...I like AI too...
I think the lyrics Billie has written are a lot more mature and show deeper emoticons....I think that Holiday is great song lyrically...Not-so-much musically...I don't really like that tune all that much...But I think it describes really well how young men join the army to get away...they think it will be a holdiday...and then they get there and the reality hits them...It's not pretty..
I agree about the fans though...but so what if they like a bit more different kinds of music...I mean its better than only sticking to ONE type of music...that would be boring...Anyway...It's thier life...It doesnt concern me lol. <333
I agree that their new stuff is garbage, they used to be so much better before
I agree with you!Quote:

i
the new stuff was okay when it first came out but then it just became overplayed and boring, the old stuff is alot better.
