At first i wasnt too much of a fan of it, but after listening to it a few times.
Good album, definatly one of the years highlights, glad i picked it up
They are coming here but unable to go see them
Agree with most of the comments posted here. have been only a casual fan, but damn it if 21st century isn't a gem of an album. too many good songs to list.
I think it's better as a whole and if I read the words than if I just hear a song here or there. Their music can be so much the same that I have mixed feelings about it. However, I like that they try to make the albums like one long story.
I'd like to see them live because maybe they are better that way. :geek:
Don't get me wrong, I like political punk as much as anyone.
The Clash and The Dead Kennedys were awesome at it, and did it the way it should have been done.
However...I BELIEVED THEM
I don't believe Green Day.
This music is not coming from an honest place.
It sounds forced and generic. They're preaching to the choir here with these sentiments.
This change of style is not artistic...It's just nothing more than a lame ass cash grab
I'm happy with growth and all. I encourage it and love it when a band trys something new.
But for Christ Sake...grow honestly and do it with some fucking class.
A good song is a good song (and AI is full of GREAT songs, I don't know anything about this new one other than 21 Guns, which OMGZZZZZZZZZ, shoot me), but.....
The irony of all of this is that the members of Green Day all probably go vote Republican while in the privacy of the voting booth so that they can keep more of their earnings from the huge sales of American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown.
Seeing them on Friday (right after their Berlin EMA performance), really looking forward to seeing the guys performing again and hearing the new songs live, they kick major asses!

I love this album. I might like it more then AI. The songs were great live too. I love Green Day
Yeah, well, some bands get famous and suddenly think they got a brain transplant out of that deal that bestowed all this ingenious wisdom to them.
I loved the American Idiot album, but man, if I hear 21 Guns again I am going to take 21 Guns and shoot meself.

Yeah, we got 30 songs last week when I saw them!
