Green Day

Warning

Green Day evolves yet again

Review Score:

(10/10)
Who would of thought these three ex-punkers would not only shed the punk image, but mature and evolve into a whole new band. After the release of 1994's "Dookie" Green Day suffered many insults from their once loyal punk fans, claiming they had "sold out". In response to much slandering the boys put out "Insomniac", their hardest, fastest, and most intense record to date, lashing back at the insults with fierce vocals and lyrics. Then it happened...in 1997 "Nimrod" was released, which seemed to be the bands farewell speech to the punk community, with the album came a new alternative sound that not only gained them respect in the music community, but a new loyal base of fans. Don't worry folks this whole history lesson does have a point to it, and if your still reading I'm assuming you have figured that out already. "Warning" is not only the band's most mature album yet, it's also another evolution in their sound. Acoustic instead of electric (there still is electric do not worry), integrity not intensity. Yet through all this the signature sound of Green Day has not dissappeared, in fact it's stronger than ever, and the patient fan will reap the enjoyment of listening to this excellent release.
