This album made me stop paying attention to them as a band, seemed like a C-rate album full of songs that didn't make American Idiot. Nimrod is probably my fav album of theirs for context. Nimrod is great, one of, if not their best. 21CB had some great songs and I still listen to it but it is more or less a subpar A.I. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yang Gun Kelly 6889 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 21CB is ass. They got soft and voiceless ever since, a bit like current blink. Just a predictable older talents living off formula. American Idiot was a good album but it's still not comparable to their prime when they ran things. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russel Coight 4680 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 21CB is decent. Obvious attempt to try and recreate the success of AI but most of the songs are pretty good so it gets a pass. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kay 11411 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 I still don't get why AI is so beloved. Like I'm not saying it's awful I just don't see it as particularly noteworthy yet it was freakin' huge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nosferatu 1837 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 I love Peacemaker, Before the Lobotomy and Horseshoes & Handgrenades. Those songs are fucking good. Half of that album is very good but the other half is just filler. X-Kid and Stay the Night are great songs from the trilogy albums. I enjoy Dirty Rotten Bastards too even if they did try to recreate some rock opera like Jesus of Suburbia. Say Goodbye, Outlaws and the album title track are the ones I like from Revolution Radio. I like Stab You In the Heart from their new album. Has a cool 50's rock n roll vibe. But outside of a few select songs since 21st Century Breakdown, they've mainly been trash.

So this and System of Down and to an extent Sum 41's Chuck became rallying cries in the music scene. At least in my small midwest community in Michigan. That said, I'll never understand how Blvd of Broken Dreams, the worst song on the album, blew up as big as it did. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
