Nevermind started a craze and fans rushed out to buy that album. I personally like all of Nirvana's stuff. I agree the Unplugged was a great album. Alice in Chains was also great as well! I think Green Day is a very good band and they've never dissapointed me. I want to go buy the American Idiot album now.
green day are not punk. they have musical talent, but they didnt bring about any change what so ever in the punk scene. nirvana isnt punk either... they were inspired by it though. from the muddy banks is an awsom cd too... nevermind was their worst cd, but it was still an awsom cd anyways.
I thought green day were great when i first started learning the guitar Of course, one day i learned a fourth chord and then realised how shit they were..... but still......
yep, green day is not punk, its punk rock (and maybe a little pop too)american idiot has made for money maybe.but all the same its a very good album and reflects my ideas about bush.but the green day albums which are years ago are better.warning n dookie, theres no bad song in that albums.n green day cannot compare with nirvana or beatles, thats funny cos their mode&style is very diffrnt! ilove sweet children s music and blink 182 will never be as good as green day, i wanted to add
green days political message seems faked, and just something for them to write songs about and MAKE MONEY off of. blink 182 are worse than greenday though, i do agree. green day isnt punk rock. punk is just another term for punk rock, just like how at a time people would call it hardcore instead of punk.
My friend is 42 years old and he's seen Green Day live. He said they were one of the best concerts he's ever seen. Billie Joe is an awesome front man IMO.
