Yeah I mean Green Day was good through Dookie, but I find it really sad that no one knows about they're older stuff. Is anyone alive other than me aware that Green Day used to be really good, back when they started? They've been around for 20 years, and released some great albums - 39/Smooth and Kerplunk. After this came Dookie, which is decent, but signaled their coming demise. Or one would think, if they were to listen to the music. Instead, they went from playing some good alternative punk stuff to playing **** and rocketed into stardom. Really quite depressing if you ask me. I hate that so many people talk **** about them without listening to their first 2 albums. I also hate that most of the people that like them are stupid little kids/teenagers that like their new stuff, which doesn't deserve a single sale. I like to go up to people with Green Day shirts/clothing/whatever other stuff they have and ask them about Kerplunk and 39/Smooth. Sadly, I have yet to find a single person that has heard of these albums . But that's the music industry isn't it? Good thing I have music banter to rant about these things and talk to people that have an actual sensible taste of music, or at least even think about what they like and why they like it.
