General Discussion - Green Day

[dim rock]

21 guns was one solo i couldnt get around but i eventually got it

[tired cedar]

I know but the one part that sounds like tapping

[dim rock]

it isn't tapping

its just a fast right hand

[tired cedar]

Oh

Sure sounds like it

[dim rock]

if anything, try watering down the part

and if you feel more confident with it, try adding a piece of the harder stuff each time

[tired cedar]

Mhm i watered down the AI solo a bit

And i learned it

[dim rock]

correct me if im wrong

since part of that solo is octaves, you probably did it on a single string first?

[tired cedar]

Yeah the G string

I play the solo with the low E muted and the A and the G string

[dim rock]

and with the single string part, you probably played it to the rhythm "1 e and, 2 e and, 3 e and, 4 and"

and not the full rhythm

[tired cedar]

Yeah

[dim rock]

try adding the "uh's" when you feel like you got it

[tired cedar]

Oh wait nvm i do it on 10th fret but i could use the e1 e2 e3 e4

I got the rest of the song nailed down tho

[dim rock]

thats good

if anything, practice the complete solo at a slow tempo

[tired cedar]

Yeah thats good advise

[dim rock]

the metronome is your best friend

if you get one tempo nailed, increase it by 5 and try again

[tired cedar]

I dont own a metronome, i should look into one

[dim rock]

just use an online one

theyre just as good

[tired cedar]

Yeah

[tired cedar]

Ok

[dim rock]

since im in drumline, my best advice is to try your hardest and increase difficulty

[tired cedar]

Yeah ill go with that

[dim rock]

remember, a met is always your best friend

[tired cedar]

Overall tho AI is an easy one, although its not the easiest, the easiest one is brain stew

[dim rock]

oh yea

i could play brain stew in my sleep

[tired cedar]

We all could

[dim rock]

i'd say the most fun and challenging one i know off of dookie is Chump

[tired cedar]

It was my first song which i learned

[dim rock]

the bass break goes so hard

[tired cedar]

Oh ok

[dim rock]

i think the first green day song i learned was welcome to paradise

[tired cedar]

The only song i know from dookie is WtP

[tired cedar]

Ah

[dim rock]

hardest one i know endurance wise is Platypus

[tired cedar]

Straight up right hand workout

The hardest song i know is bang bang

[dim rock]

bang bang to me is a slower but more political St. Jimmy

[tired cedar]

I dont really know alot but that okay

[tired cedar]

Oh

Marty shwartz practicly taught me everything i know

[dim rock]

im all self taught

[tired cedar]

Nice 🗿

[dim rock]

no youtube, no teachers, just me and a tab website

[tired cedar]

Wrong emoji lmao

I used a moai instead of a thumbs up

[dim rock]

one song i rlly should do is let yourself go

the second half the solo is all blues stuff but its pretty tricky

[tired cedar]

I love that song but ive heard its not really simple

[dim rock]

the chord progression isnt hard

its just the lead thats tricky

[tired cedar]

Yeah

The trilogy from what ive heard is rather difficult

[dim rock]

all of it is rlly hard

they branched out to a different feel

[tired cedar]

Completley

[dim rock]

dirty rotten bastards is one of the hardest songs i know

time change and lead baffled me so hard

[tired cedar]

Ooohhhh damn the solo

[dim rock]

both the bass and guitar solo killed my hands

[tired cedar]

Ive heard the song and the solo sounds so complicated

[dim rock]

its mainly hammer ons and pull offs

and yea, it sounds very much like tapping

[tired cedar]

Like DAMN

[dim rock]

but its not

just a very fast left hand with those fingerings

[tired cedar]

And people still say that good riddance is the hardest

[tired cedar]

Very fast

[dim rock]

its 4 freaking chords

E minor, G, C, and D

[tired cedar]

4 is really not that much

Im pretty sure brain stew has more

I think

[dim rock]

what they think is hard is the way the song is played

brain stew has 5

[tired cedar]

Yeah the picking pattern

[tired cedar]

Bruh💀

[dim rock]

somewhere now has a more difficult playing pattern

[tired cedar]

Oh dear

[dim rock]

im kidding it isnt too bad

it sounds very nice tho

[tired cedar]

Ah

[dim rock]

i gotta go to bed rn, i got school

[tired cedar]

Bye

[dim rock]

laterrrr

[wheat vault]

This is not a problem, this is more positive than négatif 😭😭

[smoky gate]

try playing panic song (i do not know how to play an instrument but i think it would be hard to play panic song)

[craggy wind]

yeah mike is playing super fast on panic song for over a minute and a half

[smoky gate]

so fast they cant play it live

[dim rock]

The problem with doing panic song is that I use programmed drums and that’s gonna over power everything else if I did it

It’s still worth a shot tho

[final chasm]

It probably is didn't one of them get hurt playin it?

[smoky gate]

yeah i think

[final chasm]

How do you even write a song like that

That's crazy

[tired cedar]

I learnt the first chorus of bang bang!

Fun song

[final chasm]

Very cool

[ancient lynx]

Awesome

What’re the chords.. For science

[tired cedar]

I dunno chord names

[ancient lynx]

Got the tabs or anything?

[tired cedar]

I could find em

[ancient lynx]

SWEET

[tired cedar]

Np

[ancient lynx]

Gonna try that once my brother’s friends leave, thanks

[tired cedar]

Your welcome

[smoky gate]

nice

[ancient lynx]

I’ve been trying to learn bang bang, but I used ultimate guitar tab’s version

Kinda sucks ngl

Also realized my old guitar teacher never taught me power chords 🤨

[smoky gate]

i mean anyone can write a song like that

just make it really fast or use really hard chord progressions

[final chasm]

Yeah I know but like

What brings a person to write it like that thats whild

[ancient lynx]

Uhh guys

Remember how that friend gave me a bunch of vinyls

I was looking through my moms vinyl collection, and saw the multi colored jack white vinyl, thought it was the coolest thing ever

Then I realized my longshot vinyl has an image printed on it

How rare is this

[tired cedar]

What the hell

[ancient lynx]

Yeah, mf was like “okay here are scales, this is a G chord, okay you’re ready for barre chords”

[tired cedar]

That isnt good teaching

[ancient lynx]

No wonder I lost interest in guitar for so long

[tired cedar]

BARRE CHORDS BEFORE POWER CHORDS?!

[ancient lynx]

Yeah I just learned power chords about a month ago

ON MY OWN, FUCK YOU SEAN

[tired cedar]

God damn

Thats garbage

[ancient lynx]

Granted, I was a dumbass, I didn’t realize I was supposed to mute the other chords with my finger, I was on the verge of tears trying to learn, till I complained about it to my friend, and he explained

[tired cedar]

Thats fair, struggled to play brain stew at one point

[reef gale]

was your birthday yesterday?

[tired cedar]

Power chords used to break my fingers

Happy birthday!

[ancient lynx]

Happy birthday, you awesome motherfucker

[ancient lynx]

I was taught brain stew as barre chords

[tired cedar]

what the fuck?!

[ancient lynx]

It’s not.. it’s not barre chords??

[tired cedar]

Not even roots first

?

[ancient lynx]

nnno.. no I don’t think so

[tired cedar]

What the fuck

[ancient lynx]

He was a fairly great teacher with everything else

[tired cedar]

Learning brain stew should be learning the roots, then power chords then the G power chord after the 3rd chord

[tired cedar]

Ah

[ancient lynx]

Feelin cheated as fuck right now

[tired cedar]

Damn you were cheated

[ancient lynx]

Learning more on my own in 6 months than 2 years in his classes..

[tired cedar]

Bruh 💀

[tropic badger]

hi

[tired cedar]

Hello

[smoky gate]

i do that a lot

[tired cedar]

Good job

I need extra help cause im not good at paying attention tbh

[smoky gate]

im not too good at that either i think

[tired cedar]

Ah

[tropic badger]

i have 5 21cb songs in my 170 song playlist and literally in 5 songs 3 of them were 21cb songs on shuffle mode\

but hey

21cb has a really good bridge

the song

idk i think im becoming more tolerant twrds 21cb

i used to hate it

the album

[fathom siren]

it was my favorite from the moment i heard it

although recently i've been debating if i like ai more

i haven't actually listened to the song 21cb in a while

it's better than i remember it being

[tired cedar]

I like ai a little bit more

[dim rock]

alright, since i have basket case and geek down, whats a good upbeat song to cover next

[median moss]

Do something fun like bouncing off the wall

[dim rock]

not a bad idea

how abt this

we take a vote from 3 songs

American Eulogy, Pollyanna, or 2,000 light years away

[ancient lynx]

American eulogy

However another suggestion, fashion victim and holy Toledo

[fathom siren]

2000 light years away

[odd bluff]

2000 light years away

[dim rock]

Alright 2 for 2,000, 1 for Eulogy, and 1 suggestion

[odd bluff]

wait

i suggest fashion victim

its my favorite

[ancient lynx]

letsgoo

[dim rock]

That’s 2 suggestions

If the suggestions win, then it comes down to those ideas

[ancient lynx]

Fashion victim is pretty easy for guitar

[dim rock]

Keep in mind I’m doing everything too

[ancient lynx]

if you do it the easy way..

oh damn alright

[dim rock]

And I’m not taking the easy way out

[ancient lynx]

Easy way for fashion victim sounds just as good, if not better

[dim rock]

I’ll look into it

[ancient lynx]

[ancient tartan]

Which 5 songs?

[steady current]

fashion victim

[smoky gate]

that happened to me with 3 nirvana songs

which were all from bleach

[tropic badger]

2k

[tropic badger]

both vlgs, 21cb, murder city, peacemaker

[smoky gate]

fun fact: murder city is one of their least played songs on apple music

[ancient tartan]

Nice!

Im happy you got both the Viva la Gloria songs on there

I love both of those songs

[tropic badger]

lol

[tropic badger]

both sound like a variation of letterbomb and we all love letterbomb

[ancient tartan]

Interesting

[ancient tartan]

Yep

[craggy wind]

murder city is lit ngl

[marble eagle]

American eulogy or one for the razorbacks

[smoky gate]

2000 light years away

[indigo wadi]

first attempt at a phgp patch, it’s pretty wonky rn

making patches is so fun tho, I just made templates for a ghost and nimrod one

[native vine]

Show us the nimrod one 👀

[indigo wadi]

i will when it’s done!

i also want to make a milo one too but idk what album cover to do

[weary stag]

This looks sick

[indigo wadi]

thank you!

[native vine]

I would just do milo goes to college, but if you really wanna get funky do I dont wanna grow up

[smoky gate]

whats phgp

[weary stag]

Pinhead gunpowder

[smoky gate]

oh im dumb

[dim rock]

Dang so 3 for 2k and 3 for suggestions

This is a tight one

[fallen sage]

polyanna

might as well go for a change

[flint hollow]

Bro. I’ve been working on this project of combining studio and broadway this long and after 12 years of this being posted I haven’t seen it till now https://youtu.be/q1RKr4pWOqs 🫥

[tired cedar]

Should be listened to more

[copper juniper]

Copped this for 2.50 on clearance

[tired cedar]

Nice

[native vine]

Sweet

[tired cedar]

I have poster with that design

[copper juniper]

It was originally 36 bucks

[dim rock]

I AM GLAD TO ANNOUNCE

THAT 2,000 LIGHT YEARS AWAY

HAS BEEN FINISHED

[tired cedar]

Good job!

[dim rock]

im just mixing the audio so it sounds even and clean

this one was the most tedious one ive done so far

HERE IT IS

[round panther]

Sweet ||Children||

[wheat vault]

Whouaaaaa it’s very very clean 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[wheat vault]

I love the sound of your guitar 😭

[indigo wadi]

alright

[indigo wadi]

i just realized i did the one patch in negative which is one of the reasons it looks weird, attempt #2 after school

[smoky gate]

ditto for all the forgotten 39 songs

[dim rock]

The guitar I used is a Schecter diamond series guitar, it has a coil tap which is super helpful

[wheat vault]

She’s got a beautiful sound 😭💜

[indigo wadi]

@native vine new phgp and nimrod!

[fathom siren]

those look sick af

[native vine]

Wow that phgp is insanely accurate!

The nimrod one looks rad aswell, you're really good at this

[indigo wadi]

thank you lol!

i started because a friend was paying me but now im really hooked onto making these

new hobby

[tired cedar]

Why does this use the insomniac deluxe cover when the studio album collection was made in 2012

[smoky gate]

they probably just wanted to use the full photo'

[tired cedar]

Ah

[gilded flax]

The full version is cooler

[trail skiff]

is there gonna be a stream for Firenze Rocks' show? it's tomorrow

[dense tartan]

went to my first green day concert today

fucking amazing

[indigo wadi]

@native vine MILO

i gotta fix some of the white spots

[final chasm]

Yoo that's awesome

How was it?

Which one was it too?

[native vine]

THATS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD!

You are honestly a good patch maker 👌

[indigo wadi]

THANK YOU!!

[ancient lynx]

That’s fuckin sick

[ancient lynx]

SWEET
What was the setlist?

[swift obsidian]

probably the same one

[wheat vault]

bruh for some reason my mii is having a huge fight with billie in tomodachi life

i made his angry catchphrase “ONE FUCKIN MINUTE” (you can’t curse in tomodachi life so I had to spell it wrong 💀)

[ancient lynx]

I really want tomodachi life now so I can do something like that

[exotic granite]

poor billie

[wheat vault]

luckily they made up but that was like the biggest fight ever

they wouldn’t stop throwing things at eachother

sometimes i forget this is supposed to be the guy who wrote fuck time

[exotic granite]

i played that game using an emulator before but i didnt know that people in that game could fight like that

[wheat vault]

yeah it rarely happens

[reef gale]

My favorite tomadachi life I've ever seen is this

[wheat vault]

oh dear

i remember doing that when I was like 9 glad im not the only one

when it first came out

damn

anyway

anyone else think revolution radio and uno is over hated

[steady current]

Yes

[ancient lynx]

Revolution radio isn’t that hated, but I agree either way

[crude nebula]

Both awesome albums. I don't see the reason why it's hated

[fathom siren]

revrad yes uno no

[steady current]

I think that while uno isn’t my favourite album it’s my favourite of the trilogy

[fathom siren]

dos is my favorite off the trilogy

[steady current]

I think dos is over hated but it’s not my favourite

[fathom siren]

dos is the most interesting and has the most fun songs

tre is good at parts but can get boring

uno has a few really good songs but a lot of the album sucks imo

[steady current]

my rating of the trilogy:

[fathom siren]

[exotic granite]

agreed

i think revolution radio is one of the best newer green day albums

and uno has some good tracks

outlaws, revolution radio, bang bang and forever now are great tracks

[ancient lynx]

Revrad is just one of the best albums in general

[exotic granite]

yeah rev rad is a cool album

[ancient lynx]

Very close 2nd favorite for me

[exotic granite]

rev rad is in my top 10 and one of my faves

[ancient lynx]

in your top 10 GD or albums in general

[exotic granite]

top 10 gd albums

[ancient lynx]

Top 10 gd is a very low bar, seeing as there are 13 albums

[exotic granite]

true but there are also other albums i like

[fathom siren]

revrad is like 6th or 7th in my ranking i think

idk if i put kerplunk higher or not

i think i did

[exotic granite]

rev rad is #7 for me

[fathom siren]

||| theres the ranking

the lines separate good from bad

[ancient lynx]

I guess I have a soft spot for it

It was the first album I listened to

[exotic granite]

my first gd album was either dookie or ai

[fathom siren]

first one i listened to was either nimrod or dookie

[ancient lynx]

And the first album I really fell in love with honestly

[fathom siren]

probably dookie

[exotic granite]

but ive been a fan of gd since i was little so i cant remember

[fathom siren]

i've been a gd fan for like 5 or so months lmao

and i already have like 3500 plays on them

[steady current]

ive liked them for a long time because my dad loves the song good riddance and he would play it constantly when i was 8 or so and i liked it too so i looked at green day

[ancient lynx]

Think I got into them when I was uh.. shit it was right when revrad came out

[fathom siren]

i got into them because of the deep discog dive video on them

[ancient lynx]

I was 8

[fathom siren]

ah yes i love being 8 years old and listening to a song about mass shootings in america

lol

[ancient lynx]

dude I’d listen to revrad on repeat for hours in the car, tiny mf listening to bang bang

[fathom siren]

i never really got into music until like middle school

[ancient lynx]

I remember my mom being upset after hearing me playing Longview, and I was so confused about it

[fathom siren]

i remember listening to paint it black a shit ton for some reason

also gorillaz

[exotic granite]

i listen to rev rad, dookie and warning a lot in the car

[exotic granite]

my mom didnt get upset when i played it in the car

ig she wasnt paying attention to the lyrics or didnt care

[fathom siren]

i played gd in the car with my mom and she just went "green day? oh cool."

[steady current]

oh lol, my dad was the same way i didnt know the lyrics were like that and i played it in the car cluelessly

[exotic granite]

yeah pre ai lyrics are a bit hard to understand

some of the lyrics on when i come around sound totally different to me

[ancient lynx]

She’s cool with it now, we listen to them together occasionally, I guess she just wasn’t happy about her 8 year old daughter listening to a song about masturbation

[fathom siren]

my mom said longview was one of her favorite gd songs lmao

[trim birch]

same

[exotic granite]

after billie says do you have the time to listen to whine on basket case i cant understand the next sentence

[fathom siren]

about nothing and everything all at once

[steady current]

yeah their lyrics have gotten a lot less complicated to understand over the years

[exotic granite]

yeah thats true

[fathom siren]

i mean gd lyrics have always been pretty simple and down to earth

apart from ai and 21cb

[steady current]

because theres more of a story behind those albums compared to like dookie or something

[fathom siren]

yeah

[exotic granite]

i remember someone saying rev rad was like a sequel to dookie since dookie is about moving out like on welcome to paradise and rev rad is like reliving past memories

[fathom siren]

i can kinda see that

[steady current]

yeah i can understand that

[exotic granite]

insomiac is basically a direct follow up to dookie lyrically wise so ig

the real trilogy

[steady current]

yeah i guess that makes sense

[ancient lynx]

just sayin

cus 21cb ties into ai, and a story could be made for revrad

[tired cedar]

Why we all hating on uno i think its fine

[crude nebula]

UNO IS FUCKING AWESOME

NO JOKE

KILL THE DJ IS A BANGER

I'm not being sarcastic I actually love that song

[tropic badger]

SOMEONE KILL THE DJ

SHOOT THE FUCKIN DJ

[odd bluff]

I haven't seen any hate here for uno in a while

Most people here think uno is fine or good

[fallen sage]

for the most part its dos and tre album catching flak here

[odd bluff]

Yeah

[indigo wadi]

so im clarifying the 1039 cover for a project

and i zoom into the girls face…

[smoky gate]

thats me

(my face is blurry as hell)

[smoky gate]

the trilogies are actually

[tired cedar]

I think uno is really good

[trim birch]

we can tell

[dim rock]

Alright y’all, since 2K is done, I’ll be doing fashion victim now

But I don’t know the song that well yet so I’ll have to learn it and play with the track a few times to get used to it

[odd bluff]

awesome

[gilded flax]

Uno has a great opener which should've been the lead single

[median moss]

Yup, nuclear family would have been such a better single than oh love

[tired cedar]

Right, if i had £1 for everytime good riddance was played at a wedding, i would be a billionare

[tired cedar]

Yep

[ancient lynx]

Agreed, that song gets too much hate

It’s groovy as fuck

“they swear too much”
as an annoying teenager who overuses swears, I could not care less, fuck you

[median moss]

Kill the dj alpha, it’s the first song I added to my playlist after finishing listening to uno for the first time

[fathom siren]

kill the dj is a song

i don’t know what else to say about it

[tired cedar]

I love kill the dj

[fathom siren]

it’s kinda good but why do they wanna kill the dj so badly

what did they do to them

[tired cedar]

Nobody talks about angel blue

[fathom siren]

i hate angel blue

[tired cedar]

Fair

Its... ok

The lyrics suck, the riffs are ok

[fathom siren]

ngl i kinda hate every song after kill the dj

[tired cedar]

Thats fair

[fathom siren]

not a fan of uno

[ancient lynx]

Horny mug???

Bigass dent in it, what the hell

That wasn’t there last night

[fathom siren]

horny tried to escape from the mug

[signal anvil]

Next time you look away, he might be gone.

[ancient lynx]

We’d have to put the city on lockdown, a dangerous horny on the loose could bring the fall of the US empire

[signal anvil]

Today, the entire city. Tomorrow, the entire country. And the day after, the world.

Secure that mug at all costs.

A glass case is good enough.

[ancient lynx]

I do not have a glass case 😔

It seems the world is at risk

[fathom siren]

use whatever you have to contain him

[signal anvil]

Well, put it in a cupboard.

That's good enough.

[fathom siren]

horny is a keter class scp

[ancient lynx]

Can I still drink out of it

[tired cedar]

Protect that mug, its a great mug

[signal anvil]

Be careful.

[ancient lynx]

It is a really great mug

[signal anvil]

He will take over your body.

And use that to disguise with the people.

[ancient lynx]

Wouldn’t mind having horny control me

[signal anvil]

I wonder if anyone else has ever said that.

[ancient lynx]

Nope, it’s a brand new sentence, courtesy of canta

[tired cedar]

Its too hot, im getting the big boy fan

I havent got this out since july 2019

[chilly tinsel]

I like Angel Blue

[tired cedar]

Cool

[chilly tinsel]

That upbeat rhythm in the verses that gets juxtaposed with the chorus is neat IMO

[ancient lynx]

Huge fan of that

[tired cedar]

Lmao

Big bronze boi

[ancient lynx]

Completely forgot I was rating every song in every album

Doing nimrod now

Got 4.5 done

Fuck my family came home was using the piss record

[smoky gate]

foiled again by the piss record

[ancient lynx]

That’s my new favorite sentence

[tired cedar]

GAH! damn you piss recording!

[smoky gate]

my new favorite sentence is "As of June 14, 2022, the world has not yet been destroyed" from the wikipedia article on the rapture

god that is small

[median moss]

Good to know that as of 2 days ago the world hasn’t been destroyed yet

[smoky gate]

shit

[smoky gate]

the actual date of the rapture is 1972's release date

so when it is we dont know

[tired cedar]

Nooooo i wanna listen to it

[smoky gate]

you'll listen to it in heaven

[tired cedar]

Yay

[median moss]

Sounds like I need to do something then kill’s myself and goes to heaven to listen to 1972

[smoky gate]

dude it hasnt released yet

[median moss]

I know…

Wait what does rapture mean lol

I’m dumb af lmao

[tired cedar]

End of the earth in a religeous way i think

Im also really dumb

[median moss]

Ok

Lol

[tired cedar]

Nvm

[ancient lynx]

Basically yea

2nd coming of Christ will bring the end of the world

or something

[gilded flax]

Personally I like Dos. Is it perfect? Nah. But it's a fun cheesy listen.

[tired cedar]

Stray heart is the best song in dos

[swift obsidian]

i liked lazy bones a bit more but yea stray heart is good too

[dark anchor]

Jinx is underrated I love that song

[swift obsidian]

i love the "im a curse hanging around you" line

[ancient lynx]

i just learned guitar picks are very flammable

[smoky gate]

a very cheesy listen

[native vine]

Did you burn it lmao

[ancient lynx]

It was an accident, but yes

[smoky gate]

wtf how

[ancient lynx]

I burnt it again just for funzies

So I.. I uh.. I was melting the eyes onto a clay figurine I made

And I was using a cheap guitar pick to mold the eyes into shape

And Kaboinga

[smoky gate]

at least it was cheapp

also canta arm reveal (clickbait) (not real)

[ancient lynx]

I’ve got tons of those cheap picks, and a few good ones, I use the cheap ones for everything but guitar

[smoky gate]

burner pick

[crude nebula]

Billie said at an interview that the song is not about Killing a DJ. He says it's more of a metaphorical term

[crude nebula]

Stay The Night, Kill The DJ and Let Yourself Go are the best (in my opinion)

[fallen sage]

kill the dj is one massive pisstake on bystanders and voyeurs

[fathom siren]

trilogy top 10 cause im bored

1. baby eyes
2. stay the night
3. stop when the red lights flash
4. let yourself go
5. missing you
6. stray heart
7. nuclear family
8. 8th avenue serenade
9. lazy bones
10. wow! that’s loud!

[fathom siren]

then he should’ve said “that is a metaphor by the way” really quickly after every kill the dj

[smoky gate]

the smiths have a song where they say hang the dj

[smoky gate]

the ear hurt track at #10

[fallen sage]

he doesnt mean its bad

[fathom siren]

idc if i go deaf i like it

[fallen sage]

just

listen to the last 40 seconds of it

[fallen sage]

shoot the fucking metaphor-

[smoky gate]

ah you must be a merzbow fan

my cat is making it very hard to type

[fathom siren]

your cats trying to say something

[smoky gate]

ill let him

he didnt say anything

[fathom siren]

he forgot

[smoky gate]

unsurprising considering hes dumb as fuck

[fathom siren]

don’t cats have the intelligence of a toddler

i think i heard that somewhere

[smoky gate]

probably but i have 2 cats with less and one with a bit more

and 2 more uncategorized cats

[fathom siren]

i have 3 cats and idk which one is the dumbest

i know which is the smartest but the dumbest im not sure

[smoky gate]

i am allergic to cats actually but i only recently found that out

[tired cedar]

Got this a while back

[chilly tinsel]

Oh nice!

[ancient lynx]

Looks comfy

[tired cedar]

It works wonders on a cold day

Panic song

[manic valve]

it’d be nice if green day remastered their older albums

[manic valve]

gonna listen to it later

[tired cedar]

Ight

[tired cedar]

Mhm

[ancient lynx]

Anxiety tune

[tired cedar]

Damn

[smoky gate]

i'm up for a strangeland remaster

[swift obsidian]

Don’t think they really need it but maybe

[smoky gate]

the sound quality on sweet children is garbage

[fathom siren]

fright melody

[fathom siren]

went to hot topic for the first time and got an ai shirt

[smoky gate]

beware of the hot topic vortex

(when you enter the machines put goth outfits on you)

[tired cedar]

Nice

[ancient lynx]

I want to go to a hot topic so badly

I’ve gone once or twice, but I was a lil baby bitch and didn’t have any money, and wasn’t into that style

Yesterday I found out my favorite clothing item.. and the only thing I really wear.. is from hot topic, it’s a plaid jacket, looks really nice with my Green Day shirt, it was my brother’s

[tropic badger]

Oooo

There's a hot topic in my local mall

I should go there before the mall closes for good

Which is soon

[manic valve]

the last 4 kerplunk songs give me something

like their sound is actually so bad

it makes me really happy

or very energetic

“best thing in town” specialy

[odd bluff]

sweet children EP on kerplunk is ok

i think best thing in town and my generation is pretty catchy although the quality is not good

but the last 2 im not too big on

[wheat vault]

Just listened to still breathing and it fucking hit me

I don’t think any song has really hit me like that just did in any form at any time in my life prior

[sacred robin]

Yes still breathing is amazing

For me it's up there with 21 Guns and wmuwse

[swift obsidian]

yea that happened to me about a year ago

[reef gale]

o yea i got that same shirt

the 1 time i went to hot topic

it just screamed edgy so i have never gone back

[fathom siren]

i liked most of the clothes there

i'll probably go back sometime

i didn't get a three cheers shirt so im almost definitely going back

[wheat vault]

Ah American problems

I’m from Europe do hot topic doesn’t exist to me

Apparently it’s just Harry Potter and MCU shit now

[tired cedar]

Cannot count the amount of times ive heard time of your life played at a wedding

[wheat vault]

And graduation

[tired cedar]

Yep

[craggy wind]

in my guidance class in 5th grade the teacher played it every day at the beginning of class

[wheat vault]

drew these a while back

i just realized I never posted them here

kerplunk

rusty james sounds like scattered

[wheat vault]

Its ironic

the song is an ending relationship song

[ancient lynx]

Foreshadowing

[wheat vault]

Oof

[smoky gate]

my generation on sc is better than the original

i hate the original, the only good who album is sell out

[odd bluff]

i thought best thing in town was a cover

it kinda seemed like it on first listen

[karmic agate]

my ranking

[smoky gate]

[karmic agate]

good list

[smoky gate]

ok

[wheat vault]

Dos is a good album

[ancient lynx]

( ) (tied)

[fathom siren]

[signal anvil]

The man is ascending.

[ancient lynx]

What da Billie doin?

Dudes going straight to heaven to talk with totally legitimate Jesus

[smoky gate]

hes in the 1972 rapture

[civic garnet]

Gd shelf update

[exotic granite]

the ep or the song?

[crude nebula]

Nice bro! As a person who also has these sticks, they are amazing (I could even smell the Tiger Piss 🤣)

[civic garnet]

im too scared to actually use them 😔

especially because of how my last pair of sticks looked after using them

(im a very aggressive drummer)

[crude nebula]

We all are mate

[exotic granite]

cool

i got insomiac cd today

[crude nebula]

Nice!

[civic garnet]

cant find the pic but last time i got a fresh pair of sticks one snapped in half after like 3 sessions

[crude nebula]

Here's my advice. Only use 'em every once in a while. That way, they won't lose durability quickly.

[civic garnet]

ill just stick to the $3 sticks i have 💀

[crude nebula]

Damn bro

Also, I haven't used the sticks that came with my E Kit

They suck

[wheat vault]

i hate the other pinhead gunpowder vocalist

[exotic granite]

which one

theres 4

billie, jason, bill and sarah who was on the early early releases

[smoky gate]

ep

[exotic granite]

yeah thats true

i dont really like the production on the pre kerplunk stuff

too raw and underproduced for me

sounds like someone put a tape recorder in the room the band was playing while the band played their music

[fathom siren]

he looks like a fish out of water

he's about to start flopping on the floor

[tropic badger]

guys does hot topic have warning shirts like the shockman one or do they have plunky shirts

[exotic granite]

when i went there i only saw american idiot t shirt

i got american idiot t shirt and blink 182 t shirt there

[velvet escarp]

Where did you get that Green Day book at the end at the very far right?

[civic garnet]

found it at a record store

[velvet escarp]

Oh nice

[civic garnet]

went in because they had a trilogy poster in the window but they didnt sell them anymore

books pretty cool tho

[velvet escarp]

Nice gd shelf. I wish I had that many gd stuff

[civic garnet]

thank you its my biggest acheivement

[ancient lynx]

Severe lack of horny plush on that gd shelf

[civic garnet]

😔

[ancient lynx]

Otherwise, awesome collection

[civic garnet]

im trying my best with my minimum wage jobs

[ancient lynx]

Ah, how dare you want to save enough to pay bills and eat?

Spend it on horny plushies, like the legend you are!

[civic garnet]

i can eat cans of soup off the ground but where am i gonna find horny plush on the ground

[ancient lynx]

Amen amen

[civic garnet]

WHAT

i swear they were $35 last time i looked

or maybe they werent idk i look at a lot of green day stuff

oh no

[civic garnet]

this is the cheapest i can find wtf

idk when i get payed next

[fathom siren]

when i went they had an ai t shirt and the basket case t shirt

[civic garnet]

i have ai, basket case, and dookie shirts and a 21cb hoodie from hot topic

[wheat vault]

billie funko pop in jar

[ancient lynx]

They’ve been 55$ as long as I can remember

Shit when the fuck is my horny plushy coming

Ordered it on the 3rd, haven’t received a tracking number yet

every day I go without my plushy, I become more and more lonely 😔

Oh wait I just checked my payment, it was $60 with shipping, and if I remember correctly, the shipping was $20, so.. yeah

[steady current]

thats a lot of money for a plushy

[ancient lynx]

Okay but it’s a HORNY plushy

[steady current]

i guess sooo

[ancient lynx]

You tellin me you wouldn’t fork over your life savings for horny?!

[steady current]

i guess i would..

[ancient lynx]

Good. Now I expect we will not have to have this conversation again.

[steady current]

ok. i will fork over like $80 for a horny plushy

i will be broke but at least i will be less lonely

[ancient lynx]

And isn’t that what matters?

[steady current]

having a horny plushy is all that matters

[ancient lynx]

Very true

[tired cedar]

Ikr

[tired cedar]

my ranking

[tired cedar]

I accidently put insomniac low

Insomniac is fifth

[tired cedar]

Holy fuck kill the dj is FUNKY

Looks like dos Pulled a 21CB and put a short track first, and fuck times riff sounds like stab you in the heart

My god, stab you in the heart is just a faster fuck time

[smoky gate]

i am not surprised

[tired cedar]

Billie you have 24 hours to explain

[smoky gate]

he didnt have enough time to write songs in 2 months

[tired cedar]

For father of all?

I mean, it came out 4 years after reveloution radio

[smoky gate]

wait im stupid

[tired cedar]

Im also stupid

[smoky gate]

my new bullshit explanation is that the swedish songwriters would take over if he didnt finish fast enough

so he slapped together a ripoff of himself and called it a song

[tired cedar]

Is that a reference to the foamf marketing

lmao

[smoky gate]

yes

[tired cedar]

💀

[manic valve]

thats what i mean

kerplunk’s got no bad songs

just bad song quality

[odd bluff]

i think it adds a bit of charm though

but they still arent that good quality wise

[craggy wind]

|

kerplunk is a near perfect punk album

[wheat vault]

Rip revrad

[odd bluff]

|

[tired cedar]

The only reasom warning is that low is because its really short

[fathom siren]

first time i’ve ever seen someone say foam is better than all 3 of those albums

i respect the top 5 though

[odd bluff]

suprised you put FOAMF above warning

[odd bluff]

its not really that short, its like 40 minutes long which is longer than insomniac, dookie, DOS!, and FOAMF

[tired cedar]

Damn

[odd bluff]

warning is a pretty fun album

[tired cedar]

It is

[signal anvil]

Guys I'm scared.

[odd bluff]

wtf

[tired cedar]

Ok thats scary

[ancient lynx]

Prey spotted.

[final chasm]

Nice, where

Where did you get them?

[tired cedar]

Emp

[tired cedar]

You mean "it"

[final chasm]

...Can you fit a funko pop in there?

[final chasm]

Oh yeah my bad I thought there were two lmao

[final chasm]

Based opinion

[tropic badger]

based x2

theres a reason my pfp is plunky

[wheat vault]

Have you guys seen the guy whos perfectly remastering the art of ears demos?

[tropic badger]

sussy

[wheat vault]

it sounds great

[steady current]

nice

i only have 6

[craggy wind]

i only have 0

[steady current]

i really want insomniac and warning on cd so im planning to go to a record store to buy them today

but last time i saw they only had kerplunk besides the ones i already have so i might just have to settle for kerplunk

which is a great album but i really want warning and insomniac

[odd bluff]

good luck

[steady current]

yeah I don’t think I’ll find them but thanks lol

[tired cedar]

American idiot solo

[native vine]

No offense homie but what kind of tone are you going for there because it sounds off

[tired cedar]

Its an encore guitar

[native vine]

Interesting

[tired cedar]

Also i was using the e & g string cause i find that easier

[native vine]

Cool cool

Would reccomended alternative picking tho, I think that's how billie plays it

[tired cedar]

I know, but im bad at that

[native vine]

Yeah but it helps the song flow better because without it it's kinda choppy

It's a good technique to learn

[tired cedar]

Yep

[ancient lynx]

I think I figured out why my horny mug has that dent, I just noticed some chipping on the side

I think someone put my mug in the dishwasher I thought my mom handwashed it for me, she does that every once in a while to be nice, but I guess someone thought it was dishwasher safe

[swift obsidian]

horny lore

[ancient lynx]

Kinda pissed ngl

Said green day vinyl, I spent 30 minutes looking through them to find it, it’s not there

Already got that vinyl, but still

[steady current]

So I went to the record store and there wasn’t insomniac kerplunk or warning so I got the black album by weezer

[ancient lynx]

you got weez’d

[steady current]

I did 😔

[exotic granite]

aside from rob, who would you want to produce a green day record that hasnt produced a green day record?

id be interested if nigel godrich produced a green day record

[wheat vault]

should i make horny the unicorn out of polymer clay tommorow

i don’t have all the colors but after I bake it i’ll paint it

oh wait I just realized i made the kerplunk flower too

I CAN MAKE HORPLUNK HAPPEN IRL

[tired cedar]

Im gonna make a list of the best and worst songs from the trilogy, ive listned to ¡UNO! And ¡TRE! So im gonna finish ¡DOS! To finish it

Lazy bones sounds like give me novacaine, im starting to see a pattern

[gilded flax]

Lazy Bones and 99 Revolutions sound simular

[tired cedar]

They kinda do

[gilded flax]

Same kinda intro

[tired cedar]

I finished dos

Time to make a list

[tired cedar]

Damn this me fr

[viscid thorn]

https://tenor.com/view/nerd-emoji-nerd-emoji-avalon-play-avalon-gif-24241051

[tired cedar]

Damn howd you get a picture of me

[gilded flax]

Brutal Love on the worst :(

[tired cedar]

Its there cause i personally i think its the worst one in tre, it wouldnt be fair if it was just uno and dos

[gilded flax]

Fair enough

[tired cedar]

Its an alright song

[viscid thorn]

Brutal Love is a solid A tier

Now, I don’t enjoy 99 Revolutions that much lol

[tired cedar]

Thats fair

[odd bluff]

i like the part in brutal love where he screams and the song switches up

[chilly tinsel]

John Feldmann, kinda for the fun of it?

[swift obsidian]

listened to working class hero for the 1st time in awhile

what a fucking banger

[wheat vault]

Giles Martin could probably do

anyway
when did Green Day go EADGBE?

[swift obsidian]

what is that

[wheat vault]

the standard guitar tuning

[swift obsidian]

yea idk anything abt that so

[swift kindle]

they played know your enemy at the bowling alley I work at but they ended the song halfway through

[smoky gate]

why are the first 2 at the bottom

[tired cedar]

I dont really enjoy them as much as the rest

[smoky gate]

w hy

[tired cedar]

I dont actually know, they were still finding there sound in 39 smooth and dominated love slave ruins kerplunk for me

[exotic granite]

39 is overrated ngl

[ancient lynx]

hes weirdly hard to make, mine looks kinda whack but its fun

[ancient lynx]

Warning is so low damn

[native vine]

Insomniac too low smh 😔

[ancient lynx]

Insomniac isn’t that low

Top 5 isn’t bad

[native vine]

That's fair

I honestly do feel like the first two albums never get enough love

Like kurplunk and 1039/smoothed deserve high placements imo

[ancient lynx]

They definitely deserve it, I just can’t bring myself to do it

Like I know they’re great albums, but I just don’t love them

[tired cedar]

Accidentlt put it there, its after nimrod

[nova stratus]

Yeah Warning is one of my favorite albums.. i love the tempo and the lyrics.

[exotic granite]

warning is so good

[ancient lynx]

I really prefer warning to American idiot, just gotta put AI in 3rd because it’s arguably the better album

[nova stratus]

Yes totally!!

[ancient lynx]

I prefer most albums to American idiot actually, but still

[nova stratus]

Though i love St Jimmy

[ancient lynx]

St jimmy, Jesus of suburbia, homecoming, letterbomb, she’s a rebel..

Bangers

[nova stratus]

Facts!

Have you seen the musical?

[ancient lynx]

I have not yet, I’d really like to though

[nova stratus]

I love when Billie Joe armstrong is St Jimmy

[ancient lynx]

Billie plays Jesus??

[nova stratus]

oh you have to! I watched it on youtube

Sorry for my english, it isn’t my first language..

[ancient lynx]

Nah nah it’s alright, you’re doing really good, didn’t even notice honestly

[nova stratus]

Yeah sort of.. he plays the character St Jimmy in some shows, not all of them unfortunately..

thank you so much!! So kind of you

[ancient lynx]

That’s awesome, I’ll definitely get cozy and watch it tonight

[nova stratus]

I think you’re gonna love it

[ancient lynx]

I hope I will, I remember hearing about the musical from my aunt, about 7 years ago

I thought it was still being shown, and I begged my parents to take me

I was a dumbass kid

[nova stratus]

Haha I understand that!

I thought so too until like 6 months ago

[ancient lynx]

Aw

Maybe they’ll begin showing it again one day

[nova stratus]

I hope so

I come from Sweden, not sure they are going to

[ancient lynx]

Have they ever shown it in Sweden?

[nova stratus]

I wished I lived in USA.. have been there twice with my family but Green Day didn’t have any concerts that time

[smoky gate]

dls is unironicallyawesome

[nova stratus]

Yeah I think like one year 2012..?

[smoky gate]

its like punk rock girl by the dead milkmen

[nova stratus]

But with Swedish artists, not the real deal

[ancient lynx]

Aw man that sucks

Maybe you’ll get to visit here again, and see some god damn great shows

Don’t know if the hella mega tour is still going on..

[nova stratus]

That would be awesome!!

Yeah I guess it’s over now, but with their new album maybe a new tour will come up?

1972

[ancient lynx]

Yeah probably, that albums gotta hurry up and come out already

We’ve been.. waiting a long time.. for th- ahem we’ve been waiting a while, and we barely know what’s on it

[nova stratus]

totally agree

I hope it will come out at least before autumn

[ancient lynx]

Really hope it’s got warning vibes

[nova stratus]

Yes!!!

[ancient lynx]

Judging by their other release dates, it might come out in November or somethin

[nova stratus]

i guess..

[ancient lynx]

Maybe they decide to release it at a weird time, and do it very soon

[nova stratus]

We can hope for that

🙂

[ancient lynx]

As long as it’s a great album, I’m happy

[native vine]

I heard billie saying something about 2023

Honestly I'm happy to wait because, just like they took time for rev rad, I feel like they're taking time and perfecting this album

[exotic granite]

yeah billie joe said it would likely come out 2023

im just glad were getting new music

and i hope the album is good

[tired cedar]

I hope its more like old green day

[exotic granite]

same

[tired cedar]

I love new green day but older just hits different

[exotic granite]

agreed

i love ai 21st cb, rev rad and some of the trilogy but pre ai green day is so good

[tired cedar]

I know, id say pre trilogy is old green day

I still love the trilogy

[exotic granite]

fair

[ancient lynx]

I feel like pre warning is old, pre trilogy is middle

[exotic granite]

id say pre ai is old green day, ai and 21st cb is middle, post 21st cb is new

[tired cedar]

Id say trilogy is where they branched to thier more "modern" style

[ancient lynx]

I think there are 5 distinct ages

early
earlyish
middle
newish
[1972] new

Also somewhat coincides with how they’re thought of, and popularity

[fathom siren]

- gilmans era
- wtf we’re famous now
- we’re not as famous now
- woah we’re famous AND political wtf
- guhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
- im gonna stab you in the heart

[ancient lynx]

small band nobody’s heard of
popularity!
political fuckwads
oh god what is going on
please save us

[fathom siren]

oh lemme edit the names of mine

there

[ancient lynx]

I hate pairing revrad with father of all, even though I know it’s more accurate that way

Revrad is my baby, I will protect it at all costs

[fathom siren]

revrad could be its own thing but eh

[ancient lynx]

🔫

[exotic granite]

early years
popular
decline in popularity
renewed success
new green day

my take

[final chasm]

Nice socks homie

[final chasm]

horny waht

[ancient lynx]

Horny mug

[smoky gate]

how many horny items do you have

[ancient lynx]

2, not including my hoodie and the clay figurines, and phone case

Soon to be 3

Once that motherfucking plushy gets here

[exotic granite]

theres a horny plushie???

[smoky gate]

i aspire to be this person

[native vine]

Any update on it?

[ancient lynx]

Nope, email just said they were having delays

[native vine]

Oh that's a bummer

[ancient lynx]

Yuh

[native vine]

I was thinking of buying one but there is so much gd stuff that I want rn

[ancient lynx]

Think you’re ever gonna buy one?

[native vine]

If yours shows up I'll definitely buy one but I might wait because I'm eyeing some vinyl as we speak

[ancient lynx]

Gotcha

[reef gale]

yea p much

39/Smooth/Kerplunk: The Beginning Age
Dookie/Insomniac: The Major Label Age
Nimrod/Warning: The Experimental Age
American Idiot/21st Century Breakdown: The Political Age
Uno/Dos/Tre: The Trilogy

And then idk what to do with the last 2 they have absolutely 0 correlation

[ancient lynx]

Revrad kinda fits with Ai and 21cb, too bad they weren’t back to back to back

Imagine ai, 21cb, revrad coming out all together

That’d be a sick era

[reef gale]

i mean yea itd be a nice trilogy

unfortunately instead we got

well the actual trilogy

[ancient lynx]

Mf trilogy fucking shit up

[smoky gate]

yeah they should have used a time machine to get the albums to make the politics trilogy

[ancient lynx]

Agreed 😔

[wheat vault]

Ayo
Did Mike sing My Generation?

Cuz that voice is a bit too deep to be Billie Joe

green day minecraft

revrad tre with american idiot billie joe?

[weary stag]

No

Billie Joe did.

[wheat vault]

Ah

[weary stag]

Mikes singing voice is actually higher than Billie Joe’s

[wheat vault]

Even when Billie Joe's in chipmunk mode?

[weary stag]

Yeah

[smoky gate]

i doubt it, sounds pretty billie to me

[exotic granite]

mike only sings on that ai b side

and im talking about him singing the whole track

ik he sings some parts on other tracks like outsider and sex drugs and violence

[smoky gate]

and homecoming

[civic garnet]

and mass hysteria

[exotic granite]

yeah those too

he also sings on a bunch of network tracks

[smoky gate]

why did i forget that mass hysteria was a gd song for a second

[fallen sage]

petition for another tre vocal song on 1972

[exotic granite]

but those arent gd tracks technically

[smoky gate]

signed

[exotic granite]

idk if he sings on the frustrators

[civic garnet]

i need a tre song complilation album

[fallen sage]

mike backing vocals are almost always higher than billie

just compare the two in homecoming

[exotic granite]

i want tre to sing like a rat does cheese on 1972

[native vine]

That would be interesting

But I wanna see a remastered version of that

[fallen sage]

low key want a deadpan serious tre song

[smoky gate]

on 1972 we need a tre solo album

[exotic granite]

we need a compilation of tre solo tracks like joseph said

also i hope we get a track with mike singing and one with all 3 members like homecoming

[fallen sage]

i would be entirely open to 1972 being one 35 minute song

[exotic granite]

pink floyd moment

[ancient lynx]

@native vine

h..

[native vine]

IM SO SORRY

Lmao this is terrible timing

[ancient lynx]

I thought the notification was saying it was shipped
Got so excited, saw that, it was like a punch through my heart

I am heartbroken

[native vine]

I hope it comes

[ancient lynx]

I’m sure it will, just have to be patient

Patient?

tf

Pa.. hospital patient.. is there a separate word for patience?

No there isn’t

Okay sorry, just gotta be patient

[fallen sage]

yikes 45 aud

worth it for horny

[native vine]

Plus shipping

[ancient lynx]

That’s 30$, not that bad

[fallen sage]

financial stability is temporary horny is eternal

[ancient lynx]

Plushies are commonly that much, if not more expensive

[native vine]

In total after the sale, its 48.35$ us dollars

[ancient lynx]

Much less than what I payed

[native vine]

It's a rare thing, so good cop

[exotic granite]

horny is love, horny is life

[fallen sage]

does it specify the size

[native vine]

It's small

[ancient lynx]

Yes

Hold on

[native vine]

Just send a pic of a dude holding it

[ancient lynx]

13” tall, including horn
