We all got baggage in life. Some got that Louis Vuitton, some got the Green Day special ultra limited edition suitcases.

I just dropped my review of this. Genuinely, legitimately and pleasantly surprised.



My friend, on the other hand, was less than impressed, and put the album at about a 3 at best.

By the way, 1981 is their best song in forever, and the only one able to 'pop' my friend. I also love Look Ma, Bobby Socks, Father to a Son and Fancy Sauce. Too bad about the fillerish middle stretch...



Oh, and LOL @ saying Corvette Summer is the worst/blandest on here when Suzy Chapstick is literally right next to it.

Susie chapstick is the laid back warning era vibes they should be doing at this stage of their career.



The dad rock corvette summer is the stuff they shouldn’t be doing. It’s just lame.

Billie joe is a leader of men, a solver of equations, a flyer of rockets, a father of all motherfuckers. His beautiful heart felt lyrics and emotional delivery make the album.

It is weird how much Insomniac can be heard in this, but it kind of has everything in it. A little 90s GD, a little AI, a lot of trilogy, a little FOA even, and then this newer Kiss-like classic rock style.



Billie really did pull hard to his trilogy sentimental style which he seems to love and found a groove in. This overall seems like a spiritual sequel to the trilogy with more throwbacks to nimrod and insomniac.



The rating is close to what I think is fair, which is weird considering how absolutely unfair it is for 21st CB, Tre and RR. Especially Tre. You are not alive if you think Tre at 2.5 makes any fucking sense.

^ Jesper gets it. I can 100% see my dad really digging it driving his corvette with the top down in the summer. Absolutely wildly perfect name.

"suzie chapstick is an easy highlight. phenomenal melodies on that one"

Until you realise the melody is the same as nellys song dilemma, which all makes this come weirdly full circle.

Song ratings and their respective influence (album, song or band)



The American Dream is Killing Me - 4.0 (AmericanIdiot/21stCB)

Look Ma, No Brains! - 4.0 (Insomniac/Nimrod/Trilogy)

Bobby Sox - 4.0 (Trilogy/RevRadio/Weezer)

One Eyed Bastard - 3.5 (Holiday/FOA)

Dilemma - 4.0 (Trilogy)

1981 - 3.5 (Insomniac/Trilogy)

Goodnight Adeline - 2.5 (Trilogy)

Coma City - 3.0 (Nimrod/RevRadio)

Corvette Summer - 5.0 (Kiss/Trilogy/Nimrod)

Suzie Chapstick - 3.0 (Trilogy/Weezer)

Strange Days Are Here to Stay - 3.5 (BasketCase/AmericanIdiot/RevRadio)

Living in the '20s - 3.0 (FOA/39Smooth)

Father to a Son - 3.5 (21stCB)

Saviors - 2.5 (21stCB/AmericanIdiot/Kiss)

Fancy Sauce - 3.0 (Trilogy/21stCB)



Strange Days are Here to Stay might end up being considered one of the best tracks here after the dust settles. It's one of the more "Green Day" sounding songs with a heavy AI influence that gives it that smooth and timeless feeling. It's also good enough to actually be on AI which is crazy after twenty years. Basically Basket Case + Letterbomb in style, but still unique and not just a copy of those songs.

What I said in chat to my friend, in terms of what each song evokes in their discog, and rating



American Dream - 3.5 - American Idiot/21CB/a bit of Warning (strong Holiday vibes)

Look Ma - 4 - InsomNimrod/Uno

Bobby Socks - 4 - ??? 21CB maybe? Mostly Nirvana/Weezer/Violent Soho (chorus rips off Jesus Stole My Girlfriend by VS)

One Eyed Bastard - 3 - Warning (also Kaiser Chiefs and other such bands)

Dillemma - 3.5 - Warning/Idiot

1981 - 4.5 - Shenanigans! / Insomniac / Nimrod

Goodnight Adeline - 3.5 - 21CB/!Dos!/!Tre!

Coma City - 3.5 - Idiot/21CB/!Tre!

Corvette Summer - 3 - Warning

Suzie Chapstick - 3 - 21CB/!Dos!/!Tre!

Living In the 20s - 4 - Nimrod/!Uno!

Father to a Son - 4 - American Idiot (also, late-period Beatles)

Saviors - 3 - Warning/21CB

Fancy Sauce - 4 - Idiot/21CB



Also, !Tre! at 2.5 makes all the sense in the world to me. It's their exact middle point in terms of quality. In fact, the trilogy has one good album, one God-awful album, and one perfectly average and adequate album.

I guess I just appreciate Tre a lot and also think Dos is better than most people say.



This does have a knack for interesting outros that totally change the feeling of the song. Then somehow being a combination of all their styles while simutaneously being more cohesive than anything since AI (even though I still like 21stCB and Tre, and parts of Rev Radio, more). I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around how they managed to do that. But it does somehow feel almost like if they had made an album in like 1999 while having hallucinations of their future work, just because of how cohesive it is which makes listening to it feel like listening to a 90s era GD album. It's really just a weird miracle album that's really good and feels right for the band.
