bitches and hoes who claim that danger days sucks and is a huge downgrade from the quality of the black parade are just afraid to have fun and wear colorful clothing once in a while

#feeling very vulgar towards danger days haters lately #not that this is as cool a take to have in the 2020s as it was a decade ago #i'm not saying the black parade is not mcr's best album---there is no contest as to what is mcr's best album don't kid yourself #the black parade and american idiot are THE political/cultural concept rock albums of the 2000s #but dont act like oh how DARE mcr read some comics and watch some anime and have fun with their music #danger days is also totally awesome and has a lot to say frankly #if my velocity starts to make you sweat then just don't let go 🙄 #mcr #emo #my chemical romance #danger days #2000s #shut up kaily

I think if we gave Ebenholz the entire Green Day discography and set him loose in a mall, it would Heal Him.

#arknights #ebenholz #bedlam art #i drew this on a plane #that for some reason had an entire Green Day playlist #which transported me back to my teenage years something fierce #look. go listen to Scattered or most of the American Idiot album and tell me he wouldn't love it. I dare you.

i was trying to think of something cool or funny or ironic to say about saviors but the truth is this new album is so fucking good. i hope they’re proud of this masterpiece because we sure are. when a band jells together as much as they do creatively and emotionally, it reflects on what they put out into the world in the most raw and honest way. i love green day so fucking much. now i’m going to cry

[patronsaint-ofthedenial]

"green day hasn't been that good since american idiot" says random asshole who listens to every album since then with american idiot or dookie in mind

#yeah dumbass it's not gonna meet your expectations if you go into it with that in mind. get the fuck over it #i realised that 21st century breakdown is a fantastic album once i stopped thinking of it as american idiot 2 #the triology isn't their strongest but it's got some bangers. revolution radio is great. even father of all had a lot of potential #and saviors goes hard as fuck. maybe it's the novelty but goddamn did they make an amazing album #green day

Day 12: American Idiot

Green Day

September 21, 2004

Album Art by Chris Bilheimer

A Punk Rock Opera. American Idiot is a concept album inspired by the political climate in America and events such as the Presidency of George W. Bush, 9/11, and the Iraq War. The basic plot tells the story of the Jesus of Suburbia, a lower-middle class American teen who hates his home town and leaves for the city, St. Jimmy (who is an alter ego of the Jesus of Suburbia) and Whatsername.

Green Day wanted to expand their punk rock sound by adding elements of New Wave, Latin, and Polka Music. They took inspiration from the albums The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars by David Bowie, Tommy by the Who, and Quadrophenia by the Who. They listened to Broadway cast recordings and even contemporary music like Eminem, Kanye West, and Lincoln Park for inspiration. According to Billie Joe Armstrong they wanted to take "Classic rock and roll elements, kick out the rules, put more ambition in, and make it current."

They were originally working on an album called Cigarettes and Valentines, but the master tapes were stolen. They decided to start their next record from scratch and the masterpiece that is American Idiot was born. It won a bunch awards including a Grammy for Best Rock Album in 2005.
