Do you think people who rip Green Day do so more because they actually don't like them or because they are bitter they got so big while other seemingly as or more deserving acts did not?
I dunno, really, I can enjoy a Green Day song, even an American Idiot one (if I'm in a good mood), but, idk, there's something about it that, is kind of phony. I don't hate Green Day, but I don't like them.

I used to be in love with them when American Idiot came out though. But I was what, 10? It might be an outgrowing thing too. I gave up Sum 41 recently too. Kinda childish.

I love the stuff from Dookie and before though. 1000 Hours is easily my favorite song my them.

I think a lot of people who rip on them have a personal bias.
