Green Day and My Chemical Romance RULES!!!!!!!! ------------- Tinne Andas♥ Punk's Dying Breath | Reviewer: Poopear | 6/29/09 Okay Timmy, be good at the punk concert! Mommy's gonna go buy some Prozac because you're extreme annoying-ness and lack of testicular fortitude is pissing her off! I'll be back at ten o'clock with the Mini-van and we can all go celebrate with milkshakes at Brusters! Remember, don't look anyone in the eye and, if you find yourself in a circle pit, scream REALLY loud and piss yourself. That's punk. Dude. Now I have that out of the way. Let's get this straight. I like punk, the rage behind the music just makes it better. This band, however, puts forth all the rage of a little girl who just wet her bed because the monsters won't stay out of her bathroom. The songs are, and I'm not kidding, in the amazing sequence of three chords (which MAY or MAY NOT be in key or even tuned correctly) then the song's lyric sung in harmonic tones up and down. Know your enemy, know your enemy, know your enemy. (Repeat) In fact, Know Your Enemy is a song by RATM, which is much better than this band. Know who your enemy is? Little bugger deepthroaters who plagarize good music because they can't actually think of thier own. Do they actually tell you who 'the enemy' is? It's like telling someone to go take down the "man", man. Which goddamn man would this be, exactly? If by "the man" you mean the government, then you should know that the government supports the RIAA which exists on all major labels that Green Day belongs to. Fight the power, indeed! blowing biography | Reviewer: srinivas | 6/23/09 yes this is the biograpy which one should read cause every bodys life is full of sorrows but some exceptions . and my hero armstrongs is of like that and with his confidence and his cute voice makes him to reach this heights . this biography tells that how curious that his intention is there to be one among the rockers. A few problems with the biography, and opinions about GD | Reviewer: Mish Mosh | 6/17/09 Well, the biography was a little problematic. There were grammatic and spelling errors left and right, the bands original drummer was John Keftmeyer, you got the first two album dates wrong (!039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours was released in 1991, in spite of the fact that the band formed in 1989, and Kerplunk! came out in 1992), and you completely left out the album Shenanigans! Although it was a minor album, comprised of cute, Insomniac/Nimrod styled b-side songs with no real major hits, it was an album nonetheless. Anyway, my thoughts of Green Day are plentiful and contreversial. Part of me says "Forget about the genre. Whether its pop or punk or punk rock or rock, you like it, and thats all that matters," and part of me says, "If you admit its pop, you'll be just another person who makes other people hate Green Day. Its punk because even if they aren't as 'punky' now, they were punk at one point and they could go back (right?)." But this is the band's fault. I wouldn't feel this way if they had just stayed the same as they were in the beginning. But they didn't they sold out and produced what their fans wanted (half-ass piano pop) so they could keep money and fame. But thats not their fault. Fame corrupts people. When they started, they were punk and were out to make a hole in society. But they got a taste of fame, and traded in their punk spirit for it. They got lazy. 21st Century Breakdown is boring to listen to, and it sounded like they were bored playing it. Plus, it was edited so much theres no possible way they're going to recreate it live. I still like it, but its not punk, and thats why they've lost about 1/7 of their fans. But, their extremely loyal fans were blinded by their music, and forced into denial that their new music really is punk. And they've also gained new fans that like their cheesy 3 chord songs with weak vocals and basic drums. If it was up to me, Green Day should've gone backwards. Started out with their more pop like albums like Breakdown and Warning, becoming the laughing-stock of the punk community. But slowly they would transform into a pheonomenon, proving everyone wrong. Or, they could've stopped at what was, in my opinion, their last good album; Insomniac. And everyone thinks that Green Day made a punk revival/comeback with American Idiot. That album was worse (in a sense of punk vs. not punk, I still liked it, I just knew it wasn't punk) than Warning! Punks don't write 7 minute or 9 minute songs (Homecoming and Jesus of Suburbia). And I won't even start on Give Me Novacaine. And punk albums don't tell stories. American Idiot, and St. Jimmy where the only remotely punk songs on the whole album, and East Jesus Nowhere was the only punk song on Breakdown. And there were none on Warning. If you ask me this should've been the order of their albums if they wanted to be considered punk: 21st Century Breakdown- This one was worse than Warning only because of the piano parts. Warning- No punks use acoustics. American Idiot- Too slow, but at least no piano, and 2 punky songs. Nimrod- Closer to their good stuff. Hitchin' a Ride was kind of punkish, and so was Nice Guys Finish Last. Shenanigans- Kind of a combination of Nimrod and Insomniac. I Fought the Law was good, although, not too punky. Ha Ha You're Dead was good. Dookie- Although it was their biggest hit ever, it wasn't as punky as... Insomniac- Their last truly punk album. Kerplunk!- PUNK! 1039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours- PUNK! All in all, I feel bad for them. They had great potential as a punk band, but fell for the trap that is fame. Anyway, I've said a mouthful, so goodbye. new rock | Reviewer: Bill | 6/14/09 I'm an old motherfucker so I know a little 'bout rock and roll. This new shit like 'ShineDown' aint even rock and roll.. maybe they should call it rock and whine? Even Lady Gaga is more rock and roll than most of these new bands so hate off to her. Punk is the only rock and roll thats left so hats off to GreenDay and all the other punk bands out there. sex pistols | Reviewer: nick | 5/7/09 Sex pistols are revered because they where one of the first. The band we all should be talking about are the inventors of punk "The Ramones". The pistols were sitting outside trying to get in to listen the The Ramones. Johnny Rotten is a joke and if they were the greatest Punk Band they would have lasted more than two years. Green Day is an evolution of punk and it is appealing to a 2009 generation. Like them or not you trying making 5 albums with 3 chords and have them sell in the millions, true musical genius. Green Day is an awesome band | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/8/09 I don't really care what anyone else says, Green Day is an awesome band. One of my favorite songs is Holiday. There are a really cool band and speak freely about whatever they like, which makes their songs extra cool. Some songs havnt been THAT great but all bands have a time when they don't create top songs. It doesn't matter, they've made really cool songs and that's what makes them COOL. Hardcore Keyboard Enthusiasts. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/18/09 I don't get the big argument about if Green Day 'The Greatest Rock Band Ever' - Tre in Bullet in a Bible... is punk or not... Freedom of speech is what they have been putting out to the youth of the 90's with Dookie and Insomniac.... then again in the 2000's with American Idiot... The difference is that they're no-longer singing about sex and masturbation... It has become more political, but with a meaning... Green Day have used they're strength and growing popularity from American Idiot to spread they're message.... About everything from George Bush to War on Terror.. Sex, Drugs and the power of the voice. But it has proved that one voice has the power to take the world by storm... Now they've become one of the strongest Rock/Punk bands in existance... closely following U2. I have loved them since i was 8, Dookie was the first album i had ever brought, and has ever since been my favourite Green Day album.. Im now 18, and have they're new album 21st Century Breakown on order for when it comes out in may... It will prove the road Billie Joe, Mike and Tre are going... The message they're sending and they're next attempt to take over the world..... 'No man can eat 50Eggs' iT iS WhAt iT iS.. S0 WhAt iS iT? | Reviewer: Monica | 12/28/08 Seriously, i agree with the person below me. I don't see the point in arguing if Green Day is punk or not. Punk is doing what you fucking feel like dong, and saying what you feel like fucking saying. Last time I checked Green Day does that. Just because they are popular does not mean that they are not punk. It means that punk will get more attention giving it more fans and it will never die. Punk can range from a teen fighting crew few, to three men in a band fighting Bush. It's in a different battle field, but the idea is the same. Fight the power, and doing and saying what you like. EVERYTHING HAS A LITTLE BIT OF PUNK IN IT, as long as the music don't stop, i don't care who is hatting. i love GD<3 Add New Review About The Artist By Pages:   1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9    10   Next 10 Pages
