Greenday - Time After Time

I'm sorry, but American Idiot is shit.

Seriously, I've heard a lot of terribly vacuous political statements in my time. I've heard a lot of annoying singers in my time, and I've seen a lot of bands with an utterly retarded fanbase (in general, in general)

And American Idiot takes the biscuit. Plus, can I get an OVERPLAYED?

Yes. Yes, you can. But compared to the other crap on the radio, Green Day are actually something of a relief. "Holiday" is pretty catchy.

I haven't watched MTV or listened to corporate radio for easily the last 4 years.  So I'm a little out of date on the popular shit, thanks.

As for American Idiot, it was shit.  It was a cynical attempt to capitalize off of the heated political issues surrounding the election.  It was shit, so stop your little internal dialogue.

Not An Addict:

--- Quote from: Johnny C ---Besides the fact that it's cliched by now to pull out "Blink-182 and Sum 41" as pop-punk bands, neither of those are pop-punk anymore. It's true, time to face it.

Then what are they? Because they sure as hell aren't punk. Or rock. You could make a case for Sum 41 fitting in the latter, but Blink-182 are still strictly in the pop mold.

Obviously, because you are the pontiff of all quality in music and thereby you guessing what the intention behind an album was will automatically become fact.

Sorry, but I thought it was genuinly a quality album. Mabe the concept can be considered a spin on the election just for sales, but that doesn't mean that the music can't be good.

If this weren't off topic, I would not follow any advice from your post.
