Listen To Green Day's New Record American Idiot In Its Entirety Right Now!

[MusicFan]

Check it out on The Leak over at MTV (http://www.mtv.com/music/the_leak/green_day/american_idiot/). MTV still sucks, though.

[Mushroomheadx15]

Its a pretty good album. Better than Warning.

[Stonecoldfreak1]

already got it on my computer and the only thing left is to burn it out to the masses....

[Snowmiser]

You can also listen to it on GreenDayAuthority.com.

The album is amazing. I'll be seeing Green Day live on Thursday.

After hearing the album, all i can say is..... bleh.... it's not "That" good, it's also not "that" bad. i could not really get into the songs, very iffy for me. This is an album i won't buy.

EDIT: Before any fans get mad at me, I should note that there are some really good tracks on this cd. I really like The Title Track (Video is not that good however). There are a few other songs i do like as well, but it's not the best thing i've ever heard, they won't win any new fans i think.

my favorite CD ever, finally someone has unseated Dookie

Everyone is entitlted to their opnion, I'm a HUGE fan, but I can also understand why not everyone would like them.

I think tracks 3 and 4 would make great singles and could wina few new fans.

[Mushroomheadx15]

Im with Inner to. The cd is pretty good but I prolly wont end up buying it. I think the cd did win some new fans tho. Every cd a band puts out wins the band new fans.

Jesus this CD is mediocre. Very very very mediocre, skirting the horrible line. Oh God.

We'll see what pepo[le are saying 20 years from now. I'm sure many trashed "A Night at the Opera", "Rubber Soul", or any other changes in bands. Now look at those albums.

You may be right. Both The Beatles and Green Day are horrible overrated.

In a nicer tone, the CD is alright. I just hate how punk is starting to gain this pop sound and sensibility. When people outside of the punk subculture watch MTV or some shit and see "punks" singing about lost love, it makes me and my friends look horrible. We ain't all about fucking cryin over bitches, that shit is dumb. God damn. If you were to go to a real, underground punk concert or show it'd be much much different than what you see on TV.

Green Day's album "Dookie" is indeed a classic - not just on the punk scale. It was a cool little CD thrown together by some West Coast slackers and that's what made it beautiful - it's fucking simplicity and stupidity and overall goofiness.

I'm sorry I'm just like, always pissed about this shit.

MTV kills all things that were good.

I liked Green Day then they did their new Bush Hater video. I guess that is the "cool" thing to do now.

Bush hating video? HA!

I love it when people miss the point.

I love it when people miss the point.I think me and Snowmiswer may be the only ones who understand all the deeper meanings of the the American Idiot(the album).

Yea, well when people start saying the Beatles are overrated you know you're in trouble.

[keith, evil dude]

Meh, it's okay.

I have some slight respect with Green Day for Dookie (Very Cool Cover).

I can't really call it punk, because as Larry said, it's just too popish.

If you kids really want to get some modern punk, get some Exploited albums.

[Snowmiser]

I wonder how many people ACTUALLY took the time to listen to the new album, and listen to it with an open mind.

[Dualist]

Why is it that Green Day's new single sound alot like those Good Charlette rejects.

I liked their song Good Riddance, even though the guy's voice on that song is being sarcastic or has his nose stuffed.

I can't tell. Not a Green Day fan.

[8x11]

My question is similar to Dualist's. Why is Green Day trying to be Alkaline Trio?

[Snowmiser]

How are they trying to be Alkaline Trio or Good Charlotte?

If you make statements, supply them with facts.

[keith, evil dude]

I stand by my opinion.

It's an okay album, it definaetly got ambition, but it went for the same crappy Rock Opera idea The Who tried (Tommy), which I hated: Though I admit Green Day managed to accomplish a half-way decent one.

It's no Sgt. Pepper, Master of Puppets, Appetite For Destruction, Paranoid, Stairway to Heaven, Never Mind The Bullocks, or any of the Dead Kennedies albums.

I will also stand by that it's not punk, it's simply too pop.

It's a nice looking album, but it needs a lot more work beforeI can call it a masterpiece.

[Snowmiser]

I love it how everyone becomes a judge of "punk". You live in Jersey suburbs, you dont knwo what punk is. Sorry.

I currently own all these albums.
I also have downloaded tracks from The Misfits, Velvet Underground, Circle Jerks, Iggy's solo career, Black Flag, Operation Ivy, and a ton more of punk artists.

I believe I know what punk is, since I don't see where I live has anything to do with my knowledge.

Punk meant more than making songs for a Scooby Doo movie and having a slight political stance, thank you.

[Snowmiser]

owning punk records doesn't mean you know what punk is.

[keith, evil dude]

Right, whatever.

I guess punk wasn't a revolution against the over indulged music industry, who was porked out on over-glammed hard rock bands. I guess it was neither about taking music down to the most purest form of rock and roll or about not following the rules that you were expected to do in music: Be soft, don't use agression, make atleast one love-ballad in each album, or basically act like Led Zeppelin.

We are need of a punk revolution today, we've got the same old over-glamed hip-hop artists, who put out the SAME type of music and you are expected to talk about the same things.

Punk meant more than you might realize. Punk meant breaking the rules, hell, some punks decided to break their own rules during the 80s when the genre itself was getting repeated over and over again
