. . . done that.
despite getting a great review from the Washington Post, Green Day's new record is NOT getting a great review from me. There is noting especially wrong with it, and if you are looking for overproduced ho-hum pseudo-punk pop-rock then this might be up your alley.
I am not a huge Green Day fan, but I thought American Idiot was well timed, relatively fresh, and above all energetic. Admittedly, I've only listened to the new one (I can't even remember what it's called off the top of my head) once through, but it does not strike me as having any of those attributes. It could have been stale and poorly-timed, but at least bring me a feeling of genuine energy. I didn't get it from this and I don't recommend that you buy it, unless of course you want to buy the one I picked up. I'll give you a great deal.
