In this house we respect Nimrod I see šŖ



agree
It's very Punk Rock
Iām glad people are saying that about it, because I never really want an album that just sounds like another one. If I want an insomniac album Iāll just listen to that
im listening to father to a son rn
itās got hints of other albums, but thatās it
itās not trying to be AI, Dookie, 21cb ect, but it takes inspiration from them
Help I got Coma City stuck in my head
It's like classic Green Day revamped, I think it shows how brave the band is with trying fun ideas
yea. i hate when ppl starts to complain when they don't think that an album don't seems like DOOKIE OR NIMROD OR INSOMNIAC.
ngl
I think these last 10 years for them (the trilogy, revrad, side projects, FOAM) resulted in a great album that mix everything good that they learned with all the mistakes that they're commited
It's too soon anyway
It's not even recency bias either
Canāt know if itās recency bias until some time has passed
It could be, yeah. I meant for me but maybe
usually with recently bias i underrate it lmao
i had revrad in mid until like a year after it came out
RevRad is forever mid lol
itās literally top 3
Rev Rad is awesome
Never
Rev Rad is top 10
Yep
Wait, am I allowed to say that?
Finally, I better wake up in 8 hours to a good rip

RevRad is top 14 I agree
||the full Saviors album is on YouTube in poor quality lol||

The recency bias with Saviors is it coming after an album a lot of people donāt like so then they hear something good and think damn this is the best shit ever
My problem with RevRad is how safe and sanatized it sounds. No high moments, just a flow of good to mediocre songs
Time to attempt to convince an employee to allow me to buy the albumš
whatā¦
How do you hear Forever Now and say that bro lol
revrad literally has one of their highest momentsš
I wish I saw what you people see in Forever Now
Is the gatefold version in stores?? I thought it was just online
forever now is genuinely top 3 and itās not 2 or 3
Doubt it lmao
Doesnāt necessarily mean it isnāt the best shit ever, just means people will be subconsciously comparing it to the next most recent time they listened to a new Green Day album no matter what
itās 1
I guess "fuck you I'm from Oakland" is a high for me
#Revolution-Radio-Discussion
š¦
she gonna swing her dick is itās 19.81ā
Where are people getting the āitāsā
C'mon Johnny, I don't want to go to #greenday-chat
I know you donāt but the waters not even cold you just have to get used to it
It's not the best album ever, imo. It has it's weak moments but it's few and far between, that's not to knock it or anything because every album ever has shortcomings. I just think this thing has so much passion, creativity and dexterity put into it that it makes up for that anyway
what i like about saviors so far is
it sounds grand again?
like a AI, 21cb or RevRad
I donāt doubt itās good as hell itās just kinda impossible to give it a ranking among their albums without having recency bias
itās got that āgreenday are invincibleā feeling
where theyāre just in the zone
Let's talk about our disappointments with Saviors.
- title track is boring
- some songs can get quite repetitive (but they are saved by the production and instrumentals)
Yeah I'd say wait a month after it drops to truly rate it. Let it settle.
I still think it's probably top 5 material from what I have heard. Need to wait though to confirm if I'll feel that way later
letās talk about our pros of saviors
ā¢it fucks
ā¢bisexuality
ā¢she gonna bang her like itās 1981
At worst, 6th or 7th. Its gonna be in the top half of albums I feel
itās more the way itās delivered that makes it sounds like heās asking multiple people to me lmao
or the same person having a gender crisis idk
So many songs to scream to
And oh boy, does Billie scream
AIN'T THAT A KICK IN YOUR HEAD
thatās a banger
Top 5 Saviors songs probably so far
1.Living In The 20s
2.Coma City
3.Dilemma
4.Bobby Sox
5.1981
top 5
Living in the 20s
Dilemma
Bobby Sox
Coma City
Fancy Sauce
Ya know, for as "okay" as TADIKM is, it really was a great opener choice. Can't explain it
Also a few songs sound pretty similar
Even the weaker songs though aren't necessarily bad
Like the title track for example, that has some really nice ||vocal harmonies|| and vibes
corvette summer also a banger
youāll love livin in the 20s ngl
itās angsty nimrod x 21cb
and black sabbath lmao
It's very ||Too Much Too Soon, Horseshoes, Walking Contradiction||
I'm cautiously optimistic
i interpreted it as either about bisexuality or him speaking from the point of view of two people who are into each other in different perspectives
i was thinking take back too
There's no ||handclaps||
I believe
You people are making it sound like it's American Idiot Part Two man, I'm really hoping it lives up to the hype
man it is good
It's better than Rev Rad, worse than Dookie
||also i really like suzie chapstick tbh, feel like it's been pretty overlooked||
I may like it more with time, first listens aren't enough to take something
Saviors first impression rankings
- Coma city
- Living in the 20s
- Dilemma
- 1981
- Strange days are here to stay
- Goodnight Adeline
- Corvette summer
- Fancy sauce
- Saviors
- Father to a son
- TADIKM
- LMNB
- Suzie chapstick
- Bobby sox
- OEB
definitely bobby sox
flpkgbldgspl
i kinda see what u mean š
Itās a good thing tho lmao
holy fuck what an album
Never heard a GD song like corvette summer and suzie chapstick particularly
Livin in the 20s
Dilemma
Bobby Sox
Coma City
Corvette Summer
Suzie Chapstick
One Eyed Bastard
The American Dream Is Killing Me
Strange Days are here to Stay
Saviors
1981
Fancy Sauce
Look Ma No Brains!
Goodnight Adeline
Father to a Son
thatās the intro lol
Father to a son was overhyped imo
honestly it reminds me of SCARECROW by MCR lol
I love the bridge of coma city, the guitar is damn amazing
idk way too early for me to make any kind of ranking but so far i would say it's about on par with 1039 and 21cbd or better
it does feel like a culmination of everything they've done
Strange days are here to stay is more better rusty james
definitely an upgrade from father of all and trilogy lol
And rev rad too? Sorry I am holding myself for the official release
probably better! i have issues with revrad mainly bc of how overblown the production is + some songs haven't aged well
On par for revrad for me
But I donāt think there are any songs like forever now or still breathing
what from revrad hasnāt aged well
really
there are some lyrical quirks i guess
but billie has been that way since 21cb
i never find myself putting on ordinary world, bouncing off the wall, or youngblood so take that as you will
anyway on immediate impressions i really like: bobby sox, fancy sauce, living in the 20s, suzie chapstick, goodnight adeline
I think this might be unpopular but I donāt like Bobby Sox, but I do like the instrumental
OH, coma city was great too
Then it's literally better or on Par with 21CB. Holy shit took us 20 years of waiting or 15 however you take it to get another banger
i still think revrad is like pretty good, esp when you take into consideration that it was released between the trilogy and father of all
Imagine if this was Green Dayās first album since RevRad.
@keen pewter damn you for posting the complete 1981 clip
where
This morning EST
but itās soooo good right
It is so good and I'm doing exactly what I knew I'd do if I listened to a recording
I'm gonna wear it out in shitty quality before it's even out
Fuckin earworm
Can't wait to hear that verse and prechorus in high quality that fuckin rules
||Sick bass, slam dance||
i caved and listened to the full 1981 recording
god damn
i knew the bones of the song were good and that the live performances were just a bit rough
that song kicks so much ass
BOBBY SOX ID FUCKING INCREDIBLE HOLY SHIT
100% pure uncut cock
19'81"
Iām trying not to drink any āone listenā kool-aid for this album. I enjoyed it when I heard it in the store earlier but I need to hear it again before I give any serious ratings or thoughts.
That being said
Fancy Sauce fucks
Same
I may or may not have recorded on my phone at the listing party so I can keep listening. If I were to have done that ofc the quality sucks but fuck it just makes it feel like a demo
Are there any snippets of new songs online, I've seen that on Reddit it's totally fine to upload them
Saviors is a pretty mid song lol
@manic stratus uhhhh u would love to hear that
were they just playing tadikm during chiefs-dolphins
oh
no
sure sounded like it though
Ayo fr??
it's been linked here a bunch of times
Okey ima search
Just got home lmao
Damn, wonder which one if there wasn't one in LA today
Idk but on the live they were playing a song over the speakers and it sounded good
Yeah they were signing stuff
The song sounded good
It was the song from the teaser with the acoustic
So thatās cool
Loved the new album. Not a bad song on there.
What
That doesnāt make sense
They were filming a music video in LA today
I found it, it was in Burbank
I saw that Reddit comment
Also confused me
Supersonic jet to Orlando
||still didn't believe it but at least it was more convincing than that saviors rickroll link||
This is their first album since RevRad
FOAMF doesnt exist :>
Youre evil :(
Im not clicking that
On first impressions my top 5 songs were:
- Corvette Summer
- Goodnight Adeline
- Living in the 20s
- Bobby Sox
- Fancy Sauce
first green day album to make 3 cents, a button and a dust bunny
What are the new headphones?
One of my colleagues at work is some big audiophile. Carries around some $2,000 sennheisers. Iām tempted to ask if I can borrow them on release day š
My friend sent me a recording of his entire listening party. Audio is better than most the snippets Iāve seen from other people. If someone wants it just DM me.
Heyy I change my mind
Suzie Chapstick, seems like a nice song to listen to when you're riding a car
Sorry I said bad things about you Suzie
Strange how nobody talks about the title-track
i do like the title track a lot, but its surrounded by so many other tracks that go so hard
ESPECIALLY since it's being sandwiched between Father To A Son and Fancy Sauce
Sorry Suzie, forgive me I said bad things about you
Btw for some reason I didn't like the bridge section of father to a son and the beginning of the string solo which reminds me of a very popular song
On only one listen it was my least favourite song by far
I haven't listened to more than 5 seconds of it and that first verse instrumentation is stuck in my head.
Ok :(
Same
So that one review was right when they said there was nothing particularly interesting about the title track lmfao
WAIT
JASO
JASON
@hallow creek Were you attend a listening party for the album? Where if ever and how was it
What were your first impressions too
Wasn't at the listening party, heard it on YouTube lmao
Saviors isn't the worst song ever, there's no real stinkers on Saviors. It's just okay
@tired shale yeah, imo there was no bad song on the album but that one was plain boring
I know, I just wanted to add cause you were curious lmao
Exactly, it's just good front to back
Side A Is really impressive.
Side B can't say much except for 2-3 songs.
Side B has some real great songs
Nu
if anyone manages to get a CD can we DM šš¼ šš¼
Side B has Coma City, Living in the 20s, Strange Days are Here to Stay and Fancy Sauce my man
3 of those are in my top 5
Oups my bad
Music video to Bobby sox
I love the green album era vibes in the bridge of Bobby sox
Also reminds me of Nimrod, trilogy and I was a teenage teenager
I was talking about weezer btw
oh god i havent listened to it but i hope you mean that as in the best of green album way
and not like
crab
but like uhhh idk dont let go or photograph
@abstract grove I'm downnn sent u dm
Crab good š¦ crab gang rise
Crazy that the album hasn't leaked
I still havenāt fully processed the album
i didnt listen to the full thing, but from what i've heard its really good
Thinking the same, as apparently, quite a few people already have vinyls and cds
Also strange that not a single record store employee ripped the listening Party copy of the album and put online
Wouldve betted on that happening tbh
My store played it on digital.
Im guessing links are unique to stores and traffic can be tracked.
You cant track it if its ripped while its being played though
Even if the original link in unique
Like with Microsoft soundmapper
My store played the cd
Also a couple stores sold physical copies also, there are people who have them
And some stores had vinyls for the party that were played
Im not saying its a bad thing that nobody leaked it as of yet - its just really really surprising
My store didnt have copies. I didnt know any did.
Mine didn't have copies either
There was even that video of a store that had a listening party, and ātestedā the vinyl like last week already
I love how everyone is talking about listening party experiences on all platforms, and I'm just here waiting for the local one on the 16th...
At least I'm collecting data 'til then!
One other thing i forgot to add in my original review
I have issues with father to a son but it came from what his son did not the song. It felt weird listening to it. I had the issues before hearing the song too tbf.
What did his son do?
To be fair Billie has two sons for me it was easy to just not think about Joey lol
What did he do
Basically he was going out with a 16 year old when he was 22 and would constantly ask her about having sex and shit
It was a whole thing
And Joey handled the situation like a fucking dumbass
I never liked him anyway tbh, he always gave off douchey vibes somehow
The allegations were from the lead singer of my favorite non green day band so its hard for me to not think about
Billie even kicked Joey out of the house LMAO
LMAO
After that or independent of it?
After that
but the other guy idk his name
After the whole thing happened a guy from SWMRS iirc had posted that Joey was looking for a place to stay LOL
Today in another reason to like billie
I'm sure Billie still loves Joey but I can't imagine how disappointed he must've felt dude
I see, couldnāt find anything about it
Brian bell, though these allegations im not sure if theyre a joke, cause there is this whole meme thing around that that some dude named evan white (i think?) started long ago
i see
cuz people were saying you cant say that guys name in rivers server
like its blacklisted
The āconcrete evidenceā the abusers posted also wasnāt very concrete at all but idk it wasnāt some really serious stuff either way, more just like really damn weird
Rivers blacklisted people from saying brians name?
Weird
Cause there has yet to be a statement by the band
Or rivers for that matter
unrelated but if people want to find snippets. Search green day on yt and filter by upload date. theres a decent amount of them
But just filmed, right? No rips
#greenday-chat message
Oh so it seems rivers doesnt want the talk about the specific topic there
Still weird
Why die rivers server even become green day?
Cuz Rivers is hyped for Saviors
I guess lmao
Dude Corvette Summer is such a catchy tune I love it so much man
https://youtu.be/-IhGNumiLII?feature=shared
https://youtu.be/O3RCqf1XCms?feature=shared
https://youtu.be/QLi7Ts57EmA?feature=shared
covers of songs from listening party.
Maybe rivers wrote bobby sox haha
LMAO
Ive seen people say these sound like weezer songs.
I only listen to beverly hills, say it aint so and buddy holly and i didnt hear those from it so im not sure.
I listen to a lot of Weezer

And no, these doesn't like them LMAO
I can see it in a couple spots but nah man
This album reminds me a lot of Nimrod
I drew a lot of parallels to it while listening
I mean it like
The variety of styles on the album remind me of Nimrod
Like they are trying a lot of different sounds on one album like they did there
But they also have those classic Green Day style tracks
Idk how to explain it
But I will say that Nimrod is my favorite Green Day precisely because of how well it nails all the different things it tried
And I felt that Saviors also nailed everything it tried to do
Reminds me more of 21cb especially these the who/cheap trick kind of melodies
I can see that too
I thought the album was extremely solid
Maybe slightly worse than RevRad but like that's my second favorite Green Day album lol
I would have to hear it more to give it a proper ranking
Im a bit worried cause it seems that aside from the singles and 1981 the songs are on the slower side
I think bobby sox for example shouldve bern a couple bpm faster, it seems so dragging especially with those repetitive lyrics
I personally don't mind that at all
Was hoping for some more songs in the style of look ma no brains, which is the single i liked the most by far
living in the ā20s was fast
Plus, the singles, 1981, Coma City, Corvette Summer and Living in the 20s absolutely make up for the slower songs
Though of course ill hold off judgement until i hear it all in context
I think it has a pretty nice balance
I just personally dont care for 1981 much
I find something about its melody somewhat bland and a tad annoying i canāt explain - its maybe cause i first heard it through this super off pitch live version that imo sounded terrible
Yeah that live version sounded really bad
Scattered i love as well, its in my all time fave gd songs
Living in the 20s was fucking fantastic man
I think that the production is gonna work wonders for the song and ill like it all more due to the great sound when i finally hve my cooy
The riff was just so crunchy and satisfying to hear
Yeah the production does help it a lot
Rob nailed it on this one
Also dude
I think this album has some of Billie's best singing
Tho in 1981 I think he sounds a little weird?
Like not bad just like
He sounds a little different
Compared to the rest of the album lol
i do like 1981 A LOT more than the live
yeah still not my favorite
but i will listen to it whereas if it was like the live, i wouldnt have
Looking forward to that one and coma city the most
Yeah the vocal performance stuck out to me in what i heard so far too
Coma City was pretty damn good
Yeah that live version was just not good at all and so off pitch too
And I'll defend Corvette Summer til the end even tho some ppl have trashed it LMAO
Im one of the only people who seem to kinda like saviors quite much (the track) its so the who/cheap trick it could be straight off of 21cb
dude i liked title track
Is it the one with the rock n roll line before the chorus?
people were shitting on it
That was one of the more interesting sounding songs to me from the videos ive seen
I personally loved it
It was the highlight for me
Like I can't get it out of my head it was such a fun song
father to a son was a good acoustic song
yeah
Corvette summer could be a straight up cheap trick song too
Sounds like something that could be played in āthat 70s showā or be an intro song for a spin off off it, pretty cool stuff
i was a little let down for bobby sox but it was still good
That was the one i was looking forward to so much and it really didnāt click with me
I personally really liked Bobby Sox but It could've been a bit faster lol
It doesnāt surprise me it has a weird nostalgia feel to it and remind me of something. But its way too slow
Me too lol
insomniac my love dude
It drags, because not only is the tempo weird but also is it very repetitive and it would benefit greatly from being faster
My favorite gd album
Like as it is Bobby Sox is really really good but if it was just a bit faster it could've been even better
yeah
Thatās probably why i like look ma no brains so much cause it reminds me of insomniac and nimrod a lot
look ma is the 2nd best single
Look Ma, No Brains! in the style of Insomniac!

Best for me, then for some reason one eyed bastard (yeah idk why everyone dislikes it, i find it pretty cool), then dilemma and the tadikm
One Eyed Bastard is so damn good dude hell yeah
Oh how i miss this voice of the armstrong
https://youtu.be/RDI187v1Jao?feature=shared this sounds alot like bobby sox. saw a comment that said it did and after hearing this song i see it.
From Puddle of Mudd's Come Clean album
Met a girl, thought she was grand
fell in love, found out first hand
went well for a week or two
then it all came unglued
In a trap, trip I can't grip
never thought I'd be the one who'd slip
then I started to realize
I was living one big lie
She fucking hates me
trust
she fucking hates me...
Its catchy af, the sound is great, its kind of heavy in a way and sounds like a spiritual successor to Holiday, even the vocals sound very american idiot esque
i dont dislike oeb i just love dilemma
Dilemma is the better still breathing for me
Sounds less like a katy perry song in the verses and packs more punch
Kinda
lmao katy perry song
But sorry, she fucking hates me is by far the better song
Yeah, it always irritated meā¦i like the song but the verses sound so much like a katy perry song from the melody to the production and billies vocal delivery that it always baffled me
Look Ma, No Brains! in the style of Nimrod!

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||...
i do kinda see it
I still think green days best single in recent history remains Bang Bang. Without a doubt for me
Sent you a dm!
What do you guys think of Father to a Son ? Not a fan personaly, it's good but nothing special
it was a good acoustic
I expected something with more emotions
https://youtu.be/Zy6-MWRHuEU?si=LTvTuKd6IKkIifWy
For what song was this teaser?
It's the only one I didn't recognize while listening to the album
Iām convinced that song didnāt make the cut or was heavily reworked
That was my least favorite teaser so I'll take it LOL
I donāt recognize it either
I dont love fever being an exlcusive to one country but at least theres no store exclisives afaik.
Also guys Damn Juvenile Delinquents wasn't on the albumš
Corvette Summer makes up for it tho that song is so good I don't need DJD no more
Gotta say tho Damn Juvenile Delinquents is a fucking awful song title
Corvette Summer is one of my least favorite
I am a sucker for those 60s/70s vibes that it has
I think that's why I like FOAM as well lol
You heard it live ? I only listened to the recording so my opinion is flawed
Same I was at a listening party, just didnāt do it for me. Still really great but just didnāt click like the rest of the songs
For me it was one of the highlights but maybe I just like mediocre shit LMAO
Iām waiting till the album comes out to give my full opinion but from the listing party I went to strange days are here to stay and living in the ā20s stood out to me
For me:
- Bobby Sox: repetitive but that chorus gave me CHILLS
- Coma City: that outro just kept going, crazy stuff
- Living in the 20s: catchy as fuck, that solo and the screams are perfect
- Fancy Sauce: I'm not one to love slower songs but what a closer. The melody, vocals and lyrics flow perfectly
Bobby Sox might be the best song
that fucking ||DO YOU WANNA BE MY BOOOYFRIEEEEEND|| makes me feel some shit bro
I'm going through their discography in order again and I swear I'm spotting new things
I hear more AI in Nimrod and Warning than before
Also weird similar elements of Foxboro in few songs on Warning, which is strange
Because I hear a bit of everything in saviors, I decided to over analyze their discography this way
Ai is like the percussive sound of Warning and punk of Nimrod colliding
And add the Power ballad sound and operatic elements
Makes AI feel more like old GD than it did before
Idk where that line is anymore
But dookie is dead by AI petty much
And warning
I guess the way they wrote punk changed from insomniac to Nimrod more than I thought
But Nimrod still has insomniac vibe
S
Especially on some songs
^^
Also there is way more Warning in 21st CB than I thought
Little girls feels like misery 2
And peacemaker like a full Song out of that one part of misery
Then static age/Church on sunday
American eulogy/Deadbeat holiday
This album feels like what if weezer made rev rad in the best way. Like the pop punk weezer.
Exactly
Except trilogy gives me Nimrod vibes
Too
RR is like Trilogy with rock opera elements. FOAM is like Trilogy, but further experiementing with a little bit of RR
So cool that saviors has a bit of everything, kinda celebrates their career
I don't hear much dookie in UNO. Maybe more Nimrod, like the way they play the songs, take something like nice guys finish last and loss of control
I think trilogy has new shit in it too
I need to analyze that when I get there
I'm about to start AI
As with everything, Cigarettes and Valentines is the answer here
Also MM2020 was clearly written after warning and had strong Nimrod vibes here and there
It's clear which songs were written for it
It alls tracks back to this record
Anyone notice the reference to the space line (from i forget the song) in mikes rolling stone interview.
Elon musk doesn't like flat earthers
But little does he know, he knows nothing
We can see ore
More
Thru the music delivered
Go to green days community posts since nye and filter by new comments. So many republicans are still mad. Its so funny
But they see the big picture, as van cough saw it from space
what?
Flat Earth by The Network
From an interview
been thinking about it and I think ||Father to a Son|| might be the worst on the album lol
Do you like your least favorite on this album more or less than your favorite on FOAMF?
100%
||FTAS|| isnāt even a bad song
actually Iām relistening to it now and Iām taking back my statement
idk what the worst song is 
lol for sure
letās not go there
Mine are ||suzie chapstick or title track|| neither are bad even just not as good.
the only thing that I can confidently say is that this album is better than Father of All, Trilogy and 39SOSH
my exact ranking is gonna come with time
Iām just way too attached to every other album to say for sure yet
I might agree with you here
Us a few months later
I think long term it settles down in B but rn its middle A. I have it 5th overall.
I'm ready to get my vinyl
I'll probably give my first full listen in this record store world in VRChat with some friends
Went to a listening party yesterday at my nearby Zias and halfway through the album they got locked out of the stream lmao. In other words I heard mostly just the singles and a couple new tracks. Gonna die.
Yall lucky
looks like the studio from the previews

damn clear variant
what curve?
I think
I took a nap is it Friday yet
True
Did green day used to reference specific technologies and products. There were a few references to tik tok and insta specifically. probably some others.
Coca-Cola execution?
easy way, get a different record, scan it, then sneak the saviors one in ur bag
iāve done it so many times
unfortunately I need my job
say that you're delivering it to the president and it's imperative that you take the record
like printed with the rest
or don't idk
You guys really trying to lose this guys job for him š
ur acting like I would have the means to successfully rip a vinyl in the backroom of a Target ššš
Who needs money anyway, all we need is our records making our pain go away
Bobby Sox is pretty damn great
Get around get around I can get around, rip it up give us rock nā roll
Jk jk unless
The āwooheyowā after making our dead friends blush
YES
Hehe idk why but I picture Billie being like this
Idk how to describe it, poking his cheek?
Fr not all heroes wear capes
It'll leak at any moment if every target has stock. Crazy how many people got their hands on that record in the last few weeks.
Itās been a day already whatās taking people so long smfh
Someone on Twitter got their hands on one yesterday too, not just stores have em now
I'm actually shocked it hasn't leaked
Smh people can't even rip a CD anymore
Lots of people got CDs at the parties
No CD slots on modern laptops cost us the leak
Wasnāt it a giveaway item?
Oh damn really??? Didn't know that, now I'm even more surprised
Tbh itās not wrong, if I got the CD idk where Iād play it
Am I wrong? I thought they gave away cdās
I'm super happy with my new PC but I was a lil sad seeing it doesn't have a disc drive
I have my 1h commute to work in 9 hours. Please give me the album by then.
Wtf you can get a desktop computer without a disk drive?
ME
My imac doenst have a CD drive
RIP
My thinkpad neither
If I had it, I have a record player that can rip it and CDs directly to a usb stick. I don't have it though lol
I haven't seen a cd Drive in years
Yeah my laptop doesn't have one either but my desktop does
Yeah a month in advance
Ngl I was searching for leaks and I found threads as old as AI and people were posting AI links
In mine they didn't lol
What a time to be alive
FOB reference???
Lemme see if I can find it again!

Ehh i cant find comments
Itās just this
Someoneās post on GDA
GDA was peak GD forum. Sorry guys
is it me or does bobby sox have
vibes?
Defo
This should be pinned
What do you mean by virgin vibes ?
Yeah Bobby Sox is great lol
weezer
Oh ok
Coma City has blink vibes tbh
I don't see it
The riff
Hear
Bobby Sox is Weezer with Deryck Whibley singing
they did like they have with Weezer, but they havenāt really referenced the styles theyāve influenced that much before imo
i kinda hear that
Iām not familiar with them to confirm/deny
yeah it's a great album
I really wanna find old discussions about The Network
definitely not making my own poster
Probably comments like "nah this aint GD, what is this shit? Ripping off BJ vocals"
I wanted to reply to this lol
People at first didn't believe Foxboro were GD
Some ppl
But BJ vocals changed after AI a bit, so they sounded higher
Yeah
The higher vocals started with Foxboro
So I can kinda see some ppl not realizing it was him
You can hear snippets of it in misery
He just decided to not sing that way for a while
I'm starting 21st CB in my relistening journey and I realized Foxboro makes sense after warning and AI
It's like they took certain things they had tried a bit, but went fully into it
Range-wise he's sat around the same since AI really but he's definitely been more nasally from like 2008 onward
MM2020 pt.2 had some interesting vocal experiementing
Something he hadn't really done before
I mean it was Warningās followup
Warning was FOAM at some point can you believe it
Okay hottest take of the day
Hear me out.
oh no
Saviors was great, itās a solid record. But in terms of lyrics, musical composition and just cohesiveness overall, I think they really canāt top American Idiot. Like. Take the best song on Saviors and compare it to JOS or something.
I agree
People are raving how itās ābetter than AIā and I just donāt see it; I donāt want the media to overhype it because then itāll bring the record down
Absolutely; oneās a rock opera and one isnāt. Technically different genres entirely. But nothing stopped them to make another rock opera, or something of the same caliber
They had four years
Ehhh
Based on my first listen I think the album is extremely solid with really high highs, and the lows are still pretty good! It doesn't beat AI or RevRad but it's still a fucking incredible album
i still think at some point revrad was gonna be a rock opera
Thereās nothing on Saviors that sounds āiconicā yet. Even songs like Hitchin a Ride have like, an iconic vibe to them. Maybe it hasnāt aged yet, Iām sure some songs will turn into classics but as of yet, itās solid and I enjoy it but yeah
its like the good weezer. the few older songs that still get played on the rock stations.
yeah
This album reminded me why this is my favorite band and that's all i needed man
forever now, somewhere now and outlaws
Absolutely
yeah
Also it's absolutely clear that Saviors was made with love and passion dude, they didn't half ass it at all
i was also thinking troubled times
They didnāt half ass it, but I feel like they couldāve done a liiiiiiittle smidgeon more
it feels like it was meant to be a interlude/ segway into another song
exactly
from now on
rob or themselves do it
But maybe Iāll be wrong when I sit with the album for a while after it releases
cuz revrad was great considering they did the production
I don't want Butch Walker to touch anything else that GD does bro
lmaooo
Warning was also self-produced. The boys know very well how to do this stuff
actually no producers
just remembered rob produced the trilogy

eh
ima disagree
I do think Saviors has better production
OEB sounds really flat
and the less said about LMNB the better
that shit is bad
it might be worse than 1981
RevRad and saviors sound similar production wise
The only track I don't like all that much is Corvette Summer, and I don't even hate it either. Love this album so much
I disagree totally. Saviors sounds way louder and distorded. The production of RevRad was very natural
It's an interesting song. Not my vibe but I appreciate it. It's objectively good as opposed to half of FOAM
Iād argue that 21CB was far superior to AI lyrically.
Itās the only lyrically DENSE GD album in my opinion, and the only one where you benefit from analyzing it as a literary work.
Going to the listening party was bad. I need to hear fancy sauce again
I require it
Cause its mixed/engineered by chris lord alge - he kinda led the loudness war (ai suffers from that super loud, overly compressed engineering as well)
Revrad has ridiculous dynamic changes that are like jumpscares almost, thank god they ditched that approach with Saviors
I like the changes in the somewhere now section of forever now though
Is it actually known who mixed revrad?
I like dynamic changes, they didn't stop doing that
It's how they're mixed, with such a steep volume change
Id really like another Butch Vig Production - in my opinion, while not my favorite green day album, 21cb has the most interesting production and one of the if not the best mix of their whole discography
Dilemma's verse and chorus are a good example vs. Outlaws
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Scheps this guy mixed revrad
Andrew Scheps is an American mix engineer, recording engineer, record producer, and record label owner, based in Los Angeles and the United Kingdom. He received Grammy Awards for Best Rock Album for his work on Red Hot Chili Peppers' Stadium Arcadium, Album of the Year for Adele's 21, and Best Reggae Album for Ziggy Marley's Fly Rasta.
Yeah
They had a guy behind the board who could work it but they were telling him what to do
Still breathing and Forever now carry revrad, and maybe carry it over saviors
No they produced it, not mixed. Same as rob cavallo didnt mix saviors
Wow another one that is way cooler than the original preorder one that i got, great
Disagree with sb bit forever now 100% but hey - i really like say goodbye so who am i to sa
Revrad might be the worst mixed green day album imho
Either that or kerplunk
Nah, foamf is definitely worse
And the trilogy is mixed bland as hell
Idk
Father of all at least has some punch to it
Technically the trilogy is mixed really well but its so smooth and bland it doesnāt stand out as a good sound for me
The mixing on the trilogy is fine it's just the choices like guitar tone and all that which are bland
I like the drum sound on the trilogy
Revrad is the only album post kerplunk that I'd say has bad mixing
Really punchy
You know how movies these days will have dialog you can barely hear so you turn it up, and then there will be an action scene and it's ridiculously louder and you're like oh shit turn that down
That's what revrad is like, that's justb ad mixing having dynamic changes liek that
You can have great dynamic range without having the wholeass track go back and forth between quiet and then loud
Its so noticeable on bouncing off the walls
Imagine if Dilemma had revrad mixing, it would ruin it
Yeah the Saviors songs don't have to be so loud overall but within that the mixing is great
funny thing is that revrad has horrible horrible basically nonexistent dynamic range when it comes to the actual mastering
the massive jumps in volume are almost like them going look dynamics we have them we promise
Whole track volume up, okay now whole track volume down, great
like there's a hamster fucking with the master fader
Saviors mix is like the anti-revrad
Master is pretty loud but at least it's consistent
for sure
Its CLA, its what he gets hired to do basically, its his thing
Set the volume where you want it and leave it then you're good
CLA isn't a mastering engineer
i'm sure CLA's untouched mixes sound absolutely fantastic
before being crushed by a limiter in mastering
TIL those are different roles
ted jensen does cla's mastering
But he makes overly loud, compressed mixes, he is known for it
sure but they don't have to sound so squashed
They dont have to but thats what he wants them to sound like
there are better masters of AI, 21CB and nimrod that aren't so loud
i don't think so
they're meant to sound how you're describing yes but no mix engineer likes what happens in mastering
He is known for it, look it up - loud and highly compressed
i am literally a professional mix engineer
i know
there's a difference between carefully applying compression across your mix
vs. slamming it with a limiter at the master
as said, there are masters of these records that sound how they're meant to
still loud and compressed
but in a good way
The other songs on the record are good itās just that those 2 really stand out for me
Well of course, mastering is also way overdone these days, however all i am saying is, that cla is very much known for it and was at the forefront of the loudness war
very true
but yeah again CLA doesn't have much if any control over what goes on at the mastering phase
Iām not a fan of revrad mixing
I dont know how much he does, as he is a household name and i would guess he has at least somewhat of a say in it, especially if he has a certain mastering engineer that tends to master his stuff
Though i like the 21cb mix way more than ai
Just needed to get that out there
The only gd album of recent times that i think is really all over the place (even worse than revrad) is foamf, even though i do like that album
usually the whole point of mastering is that the mixer is pretty much detached from it, whole new set of ears doing final adjustments and getting something ready for distribution
they answer to the label more than anything
but yeah i'm sure if he listened to it and absolutely despised it he'd have to power to veto that shit
tbh foamf sonically is pretty great, like it has a thing it's trying to do and it executes it perfectly
Yeah i know and it used to be more a fine tuning to have the songs match throughout the record (in the old days) nowadays it seems even spotify singles get excessive mastering and sharp treble added
I mean that what im saying, hes probably in power to say āyo man, cool stuff but that shouldnāt sound like that, please do me a favor and adjust that for meā
oooo this is stunning
also
DO YOU WANNA BE MY GIRLFRIEND DO YOU WANNA BE MY BOYFRIEND OOOHOOOHOOO
the vinyl releases are always much less crushed and loud
so i'm hoping saviors is the same and them i'm happy
I disagree, the vocals are drowned out in multiple places and the stereo separation is kind of weird quite often. Theres a whole mess of the stereo field in fire ready aim where it sounds as if the vocals dint even have a center channel somehow. I get that it went for this garage low budget kinda sound but it could have been so much better had it been mixed and produced differently (except junkies on a high, i have no complaints there) - and again i like that record
agree to disagree
This is like the what, 20th exklusive limited edition now?
Kinda negates the appeal of limited editions
What even is the number of variants now?

Im just a little sad the one i got (from that first preorder batch) is way more boring than the ones that came after that
Had i known of these million other variants i woulde waited them out
I'm happy with the one I got, despite there being so many other cool ones now
The galaxy one is hawt glad I nabbed it
they're just using all the unused vinyl pucks atp
like yeah lets make fucking neon green saviors and its exclusive to fuckin uhhhhhh walgreens
Yet there's still no 21CB color variants
me walking into my local vape shop and they got the ugliest looking shade of brown as an exclusive
like waow gren day
I really like the blue marble and clear though
The orange one is sick too
And im stuck with that boring black pink marble one i believe š«
And this one is still the best
Agreed
Also the zoetrope picture disc. I got that one too
Can't wait to get my hands on it 3 weeks after it drops!!
Yeah that one is sick
The initial ones were the most boring
These
I think @keen pewter Said it first
no fucking way
I canāt believe theyāre already doing it
?
feeling like this
What was the prediction?
That people would be turning Saviors into a 1972 EP
Iām going to kill you john
Itās still Sunday Iām invincible

1984
Gonna make a post about how the mods are virgins
please do
some fucker named jarred will be in the comments talkin bout āthe mods here fucking SUCK bro they think they know the bandā
šššš
the fact that you distinguished urself as a mod
Gotta make it obvious
Literally 1984!
Except the 1972 EP post is gone so now "put Saviors in one album" makes no sense
I approved your post again so it should show up
It's a paradox, now it makes no sense for me to complain lol
Maybe that's better
What's this dude yappin about
bro came in from yappsville
Sir Yappington
Okey I'm loving this new album
It has a little bit of everything from their discography and they do be doing it right
There are some tunes that remind me of 21cbd, then a pinch of trilogy and a lil bit of Nimrod
People say this feels like a more appropriate followup to Rev Rad and yeah, I could agree but it's its own beast
I agree
It's so weird to think that foam is was made by green day
There's just an abismal difference
I'm even considering that it tops revrad
wtf did i miss all day
And that comes from someone who listened to that record religiously lmao
chaos
Whats the talk about an ep about
wtf does that mean tho?????
but 1972 is saviors
thats an album
im missing something
and saviors is 1972
how
I just think if they took all the best songs off saviors and put them on one album
If you just
whats an ep vs an album
this is some weird shit im gone
an EP is when youāre tired, an album is a collection of music
1972 into an album
wizardposting in the green day discord server
josh if you get the album from target worst case you get a new job making licencse plates.
It has such a 21cbd vibeee
I need this job so I can support my crippling Green Day addiction
took out a second mortgage to pay for the 35 saviors vinyl variants
lol
what do you mean i ādidnāt have to get the ādookie brownā variantā
took money from my sonās college fund to buy the aldi vinyl variant for saviors
and now you have aldi variants
I just sent that in #greenday-chat ššš
They actually ruined Father to a son. It had so much potential
i'll have to download a few songs before i consider buying it. If itās at all similar to Father of All, i'll happily stay away from it.
tf are you talking about it was great
Idk man after the first two verse and chorus it kinda gets weird just like what they did to Brutal Love
they even guessed father to a son.
Dear f**ker of young
Yes
Suzie Chapstick might become my personal favourite from the album. Ahhhh
I regret saying it was awful at furst
the suzie chapstick redemption arc
Aw speak of the devil
Did you like the song? Lmao
yes

it went from washed up revrad song to one of the better slow songs on the album
First listen? Or maybe it took a few?
Ya got any free stuff from the party?
way too many posters, 3 lyric books, 2 pins, and a shirt (i went with family)
I really want a saviours sticker so I can stick it on my laptop
My listening party is tmr I'm so excited
I've only heard the singles and the email clip of 1981
Strange Days are Here to Stay sounds like a Bowling for Soup song š£ļø
Still mad they wouldnāt give out lyric books to me unless i preordered the album through the store
True
Same thing happened with look ma.
We're gona have to wait till friday
Even if it leaks you don't have to listen to it though
True
Not a leak but I found someone who made covers of all the songs
On youtube
|| https://m.youtube.com/@jonathanlegaspi8288 || enjoy
Theyāre pretty good tbh
When I said all the songs I meant most
Fancy Sauce is so damn good dude
Look ma was leaked before, ive had it a day or two before it was released
From reddit
R i p
Im surprised the album have not leaked yet
Surprisingly I think the listening parties helped prevent/delay that
I'm pretty sure leakers are just afraid of @ornate zenith
I had Suzie Chapstick stuck in my head all morning. Such a chill song.
Speaking of which, gotta set up our own listening party up in here
That's happening?
What do you mean by that
Suzie Chapstick is really good
I mean weāre gonna have a server listening party when the album comes out Friday
Ah ok š¤
Yeah i think youre right
I'll have the album Thursday lol
