    just watched this guy All Out War's video on this album and it looks like he came up with the "nothing says fuck you like a new album" joke before me, so i wanna shout out his video because clearly he, like i, is a comedy genius. also the video is pretty good

      Green Day has 4 awesome pop punk albums (the first 4). Another 3 great albums where they experiement different sounds (the next 3). One boring & too long rock opera (21st century) that was (to me) their first "bad" album. After that album they haven't released anything good (except one or two songs here and there, like Lights Out, Cigarrettes & Valentines, Hearts Collide; .. )
      You should review their great albums, not only their crap ones haha.

      Jean-marc Bottaro exactly. Everyone thinks Green Day should sound a certain sound (either Dookie or American Idiot). Much like Dos this is just another Foxboro Hottubs album disguised as a Green Day album. Seems like this was more of a rock tribute album than anything.

    Some of the songs feel like a wasted opportunity. Graffitia could've been good, I liked the quiet moments of the song but once the guitar starts sounding like a big fart the song gets annoying. I was a Teenage Teenager has an okay melody but the lyrics are terrible, the same happens with Sugar Youth. Honestly my faith in this band is gone. They haven't been good since 21st Century Breakdown.

Everyone seemed to lose their shit, while I was longing for the early days of Green. Sure, Idiot and Breakdown had some very good songs but damn. I guess my once favorite band "evolved" beyond me.... now I'm just another shitty old man.

  • @shanealger9554
    @shanealger9554 4 роки тому +1

    Agreed. As a lifelong Green Day fan who did enjoy parts of the trilogy (definitely not all!!) , and quite liked Revolution Radio for the most part , I won’t lie and say I appreciated this album. I did not remotely enjoy it. I honestly don’t know what they were thinking. The reason I liked RevRad was because I know Green Day will never release another Dookie/Insomniac, American Idiot/21st CB again, yet they still treated us to the style we always loved them for. And the production may have been slightly iffy in parts, but I would not say it was a complete fail, but as a whole album, definitely the best effort they made and may always have made since 21st CB. But this album is just really poor. What they were trying to pull off is beyond both our understanding, friend. Also, if I were to slightly rate one song, I wouldn’t even rate the title track. It’s also god awful. That would go to Sugar Youth, but then again, it’s still not very good. Just a tiny bit listenable in comparison to the rest.

    I was hugely disappointed in Revolution Radio at the time of it's release. I didn't think it was bad, just not up to their usual standards! And I didn't hate the trilogy like most people. I liked Uno, thought Dos was their worst record but still not awful, and I thought Tre was a masterpiece! After Dookie, American Idiot, Warning, and maybe Nimrod, Tre would probably be my next favorite. I have come to appreciate Revolution Radio much more over the years, especially after the dumpster fire that was Father Of All, lol! And Father Of All is not a bad album, it's just a bad Green Day album! If the album was from Joe Blow Nobody I'd probably like it more, lol! Like you said, the songs are bland and not very memorable and sound like songs you would hear playing on commercials. They're not bad, and are kinda catchy but no substance to them. My major problem with RevRad was the songwriting. To me, the strongest part of Green Day has always been his songwriting and the lyrics just seemed dumbed down to me.

    I feel for you there's nothing worse than a band that you've been able to rely upon who you love cranks out an album that is so bad that it's just unredeemable or at least unlistable.
    That being said why does this album exist well I think they're at the end of the record contract if I remember right, and why did it take 4 years well it probably didn't but the sounds of it they probably cranked it out and last like 3 months before they put it out that would explain the brevity of the album and the lack of good songwriting, and why would they do something like that I don't know why did Lou Reed do it at the end of his RCA contract when he made metal machine music sometimes the band just needs to tell their record and label to go f themselves
