Compared to other political lyrics, theirs suck.
They aren't good musicians.
and any band can use fireworks on stage.
McFly is a pop group and admits to it.
Green days claiming to "Bringback punks ambition" or whatever.
green day is fun....american idiot is fun......

i wouldn't say they had the best political lyrics either but they appealed to a wider range of people which i don't see as a bad thing
Nimrod was the album that got me into heavier music and i think that it is helping other people do the same with american idiot
they do seem to have lost their punk roots but they are claiming to want to just be known as a rock band now
i think that they had better songs in the dookie/insomniac/nimrod era but i still can't see them as terrible musicians - although they aren't amazing musicians just ok but they can write heel of a catchy song

American Idiot was so dumb and overrated. I say thier first album, 1000/smooth out Slappy hours (or somthing) was the best. I hope they steer away from the whole american idiot thing and start making the Dookie like music again.

i don't follow magazines on what bands to like
in fact i don't follow anything on what to like other than what sounds good
Now i hate these debates where people are always slagging off other bands but its good to see other peoples views on things

Green Day in my opinion are a good enough band - as i keep saying by no means special but decent
Now a lot of people used to feel the same way but feel they have sold out
i do feel this as they seem quite money grabbing but overall i like their music and i think that they deserve the praise they get
they have been around 16 years now a lot longer than many bands can say and have contributed many a good song - rock or pop whatever you want to call it
they have always been pop rock to me
