Anybody else agree on that?? I think Green Day rocks!!! I've been their fan ever since they released Basket Case (which is, of course, the best song ever!!).

Being a drummer, I admire their drummer's speed and acuracy on the kit. He is good!

Not a huge fan of Green Day. As far as punk goes, I'll try The Living End, MXPX, Pennywise, NOFX, Bad Religion and Circle Jerks first.

I was surprised by Good Riddance (Time of your Life).. I think it's a beautiful song, and it's not something you'd expect from a punk band.

Agreed.. Although i must say that Minority is the only punk-like song on the entire album. And i must add to that, that i noticed they are less "wild" then they used to be. ( Billy Joe (vocals/lead guitar) for instance: he plays more acoustic guitar than electric.) It was totally new, but i liked it, and am looking forward to their new album, and of course a time when they show up in the Netherlands for a show..

I'd like to add something you might not now: They used to be named Street Kids, but then they changed the band's name into Green Day; one of those lousy days when do nothing but drinking and smoking.

I wish them good riddance, I think they stink. And stink VERY bad. Utter crap played by utterly crappy musicians. Sorry
