Boredom at work gave me this idea (even though I'm flat out)
I might do this weekly as I get to listen to a wide variety at work
The Inaugural "Blakamin's Crap Album Of The Week" goes to
GREEN DAY!
"American Idiot" is the title and the first single of this poorly put together piece of crap.
I have never been so disappointed with a band since Metallica.
It sounds like they are trying to recapture the status (and position) of "Good Riddance" by making an album that is 70% ballads... the thing is one of them will probably be a hit.
There are 13 tracks on this disc and I could in all honesty say I nearly like 2... note the nearly... that how boring this album is!
The "nearly" songs are "Letterbomb" and "St Jimmy" both done in typical "green day" style
The worst??? "Are We The Waiting" - the biggest load of try-hard soccer-hooligan sounding noise I've heard from a band like this.
And "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams"... hmmm, wonder where the ispiration came from??
I would never recommend it to anyone! (then again, Zed might like "Jesus of Suburbia". I didnt"
