Here, here Emily

I have been listening to Green Day since they first started up and have all their albums. Listen to their first couple of albums, "Kerplunk" and "1039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours" then you will see they are NOT generic. I didnt "jump on the bandwagon" either; the only people that do that are the teenys barely out of nappies who have probably never even heard of their earlier albums.

Green Day's musical style has changed so much over the years, yet they remain consistently brilliant whereas say, Metallica for example, started to go downhill after the Black album.

I just think Metal/Punk generally gets bad press from peeps who dont listen to it, and can only generalise about it.
