I’m just not a fan of their work but the latest Green Day album 21st Century Breakdown really didn’t do a great deal for me at first.

The initial tracks played on the record just seemed to be all to familiar, very basic and for someone who is a fond lover of dance music, dare I say, repetitive?

If it wasn’t for the crispness in the production then I would’ve mistaken it for a GCSE music project put together by some pothead students the morning it had to have been handed in for marking.

And then, Last Night On Earth. Thank goodness. Another classic Green Day soft-tissue-requesting track that’ll melt that hearts of the strurness rock maidens. Cool track, very balanced and flowed through nicely. After that some of the songs got better, in fact, I’d say they all did. Actually rather good too. I’m not a Green Day fan as a rule. East Jesus Nowhere kicked off the start of the better half of the album really and if it wasn’t for the poor start of pubescent sounding potheads trying to get a grade.

Great album altogether. It definitely grew on me. Maybe their Rock Band game will do the same.
