Green Day is a band that people either love or hate. It is a piece-of-crap poser band formed in California. Although they have one or two decent songs (i.e. Good Riddance, Basket Case), most of their tracks would be considered throwaways if made by any other artist. Although his vocals are half-decent, Billie Joe Armstrong needs to take some guitar lessons, because his playing is very sub-par. He doesn't have a single good or difficult guitar solo. Although the drumming is good, it is the only part of the band that can be described that way. If you want good rock, try listening to bands like AC/DC or the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Angus Young and John Frusciante, among the greatest guitarists in history, can play their instruments like the true professionals they are. And they don't wear mascara.
American Idiot (although many Green Day fans admit this themselves) is a terrible song, and although the message is a good one, the musicianship is that of a band not yet out of the garage.

Get the Green Day mug.They used to be a good band. Don't get me wrong, they are still around; however, their newest music is more akin to the act of being shat on by a fat, hairy Ukrainian woman. Now synonymous with shit Green Day's music attracts positive attention only from awkward, pre-pubescent girls.
13-year-old girl: I LOVE GREEN DAY!
Sane human being: I would rather be fucked in the ass by four black men simultaneously than listen to that bitch whine.

Get the Green Day mug.A sellout California punk band whose lead singer sounds like Bob Dylan on extreme doses of Ritalin. Their latest hit, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" is an annoying, over-played piece of dogshit.

Get the Green Day mug.1. A day spent doing nothing but smoking marijuana(it's said that the band Green Day got it from being stoned and watching Sesame Street).
2. A band from Oakland, California consisting of three members: Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt(real name is Michael Ryan Pritchard) and Tré Cool(AKA Frank Edwin Wright III). And just a reminder for new fans: GREEN DAY IS TWO WORDS. Idjits...
3. The coolest fucking band in existence.

Get the Green day mug.A band that got together in 1988 in California. They were first known as Sweet Children. Their name Green Day was used as a codename for when they were going o smoke marijuwana hence GREEN DAY (second definiton)In 1994, they became famous for their album Dookie and pretty famous for their epic mud war at a live concert. They progressed to a few different styles as shown in Good Riddance(Time of Your Life) and their more recent album 21st Century Breakdown. Even though their style has changed, Billie Joe Armstrong explains this as a way to connect to more fans and a way to experiment with different genres that he is interested in. They became more widely known for their album, American Idiot, which was a turning piont for their career as the band put it, after their masters for a different idea were stolen. After fooling around and realizing that they had more fun and got more emotion out of the new ideas, they changed their style to what they believed was better. Billie Joe Armstrong is also known for the band, Pinhead Gunpowder in 1993 (I believe) and Dirnt, Cool and Armstrong composed another band, Foxburrow Hottubs that came out in 2007, which wasn't quite that succesful. Also, The Network. All of the members are bisexual and have no regrets what so ever.
