A band that falls under many different generes of music but calls itself Punk Rock, much to the chagrin of many people who believe that punk rock can be so easily defined as anything that Green Day is not. This band also is subject to much argument, especially between its early fans and its rencent fans.
Its albums include "Slappy," "Dookie," "Insomniac", "Nimrod", "Warning", "American Idiot", and "21st Century Breakdown". Its most recent albums, American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown, have expanded Green Day's fandom to a wider range the their previous albums, causing many hardline punk rock proponents to call green day "sellouts," and many of its former fand to call them pop rock, due to their constantly changing music type.
In short: Green Day is a good band that falls prey to media and fan hypocrisy

Original Green Day fan: "American Idiot Sucks. They've Become nothin but pop rock idols."
New age Green Day fan: "So what if their different? Their trying to make a statement! What did they do before? All they used to sing about was being high or spun out".

Get the Green Daymug. a decent semi punk rock band. the only driving force behind the new cd is idiots with no taste. i'm not saying they suck, or that they're sellouts, but the new album fucking sucks. mtv plays one video, while the radio plays 2 songs, way too fucking much. for my money i'll go get an older cd. fuck the new shit.
Green Day's new cd American Idiot is hypocritical and identical to anything else of the same genre these days.

Get the Green Daymug. One of the all time gayest bands. Their lead singer, Billy Joe Armstrong, even looks like a girl, and the other members, Tre Cool and Mike Dirnt, aren't far from it. They either play emo songs where they complain about their life, or songs that make absolutely no sense at all. They are all STONERS (hence the name, "Green Day"). They have made countless albums, but have never been exceptionally good. Their songs have little meaning, their guitar player is less then average, and their drummer is around par. For better music, try Dream Theater, Metallica, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, etc.
Buddy: Hey man, you wanna come over? We could listen to Green Day!
Me: Umm... Riiiight... Do me and favor and chunk that crap. I'll bring my Metallica cd.

Get the Green Daymug. Atleast as good as Metallica if not better.
Will be remembered long after Metallica is long forgotten.
Metallica has about 6 so-so albums.
Green Day has 6 solid albums (so far).
Green Day's new album isn't that great but they didn't poop their pants as bad as Metallica did with St.Anger.
Green Day is solid just like Sublime/LBDA.
~
Nirvana,Sublime/LBDA,Green Day and Beck are some of the best bands of our times.Also notable are Cake and Offspring and Rancid is really cool.RHCP is also okay although they tend to be overrated and overexposed compared to the other's mentioned.Smashmouth's first two albums were pretty kick ass.Satriani and Vai and Eric Johnson and Steve Morse and Gary Hoey,Vinnie Moore,Tony MacAlpine,Greg Howe,Paul Gilbert,Joey Taffolla,Yngwie,Jason Becker,Marty Friedman,Frank Gambale and EVH are all kickass.

Stevie Ray Vaughan endures!!!! (R.I.P. buddy)
~
How about Aerosmith? -- Unbelievable!!!!!!!!
^^These guys are amazing still!!!!!!
yee haw,rock & roll mofo!!!!!

Get the Green Daymug. 1.A day wasted by being wasted
2.a punk-rock-pop band assembled of extremely talented musicians who are filthy rich, no wonder. Tre Cool; drummer (2nd main drummer of green day), Mike Dirnt; bassist and vocals, Billie Joe; guitarist and lead singer. Their old look was so much better than their new mod-suits of the dead, but whether the new music is better than the old is a personal opinion.
