Amazing thread.

For some reason I couldn't get the rhythm right in my head. I kept singing it like the getto boys' my minds playing tricks on.

Green Day was good until Warning. I think people were hoping that Insomniac would be more like Dookie when it came out. That's why it got bad ratings, but it was truer to Kerplunk, which was their previous album to dookie. Then they released Nimrod, and that did well, Meanwhile Billie Joe did side projects like Rancid. (which was rather meh) Nimrod was more like Dookie though, which was what the music press wanted. After that they did some rehash and live albums (tune in tokyo). They were clearly running out of ideas. Then they went full atomic bomb on their image and released Warning, which was completely divested from the rest of their work, and seemed to miss the point of why people liked Green Day in the first place. This would be their first truly awful album, and every subsequent album from that point on would suck. TL;DR Green day sucks.

Where do you rank American Idiot?

>>86076858
pretty sure it's in at least one American Pie movie

Basket Case is an interesting song. The sound was ahead of it's time and was being used in 00s flicks, not 90s flicks

I honestly don't. If Dookie had a popish bent, which it certainly did, it was at least still alternative, or even light-punk in it's direction and feel. American Idiot was a pop-album. This is the sort of thing that's cut by a bunch of execs who think it will appeal to a larger audience. This was someone in an office saying, "Let's make this mainstream!" and what we got was pop-music. I actually have nothing bad to say about holiday, because it's actually a fun track, but that's where my praise ends. It's just "fun", it's not tonally equivalent to any of their early work, it lacks the composition that would bring it back in line with anything they did prior to Warning, and that's where it fails.

Scumbag was in American Pie 2, but that's it
