Hey, Gramma. I missed you. |

On second reading, I realized that you were actually indicating that you missed 'Gramma' -- or rather, the Horned Gramma that would unabashedly talk shit to some dude who called Green Day's new album 'indie'. Somehow that is an even sweeter sentiment. Still, I stand by what I said -- any time you can make it down to Portland is the exact time that you should come down to Portland.

I'd argue "Indie" is the perfect term for a punk bank evolving into more of a rock band because, yknow, that's kinda what indie was when it started. Small record lables stuck somewhere between rock and punk. Want me to use the term "alternative" instead?
But you're probably one of those guys that will correct a person calling Techno music Techno and tell them it's EDM, because that's what the 'kids these days' are calling it.
Please describe the song '21 guns' to me without using the terms indie, alternative or any sub genre of either one.
I'm expecting more rock and less punk. I think this trailer is the only "leaked" music from the new albums.
It's indy as fuck.

tj, I like the cut of your jib. Would you object to a custom title... perhaps "indy as fuck"?

This is patently wrong on all counts. Green Day has been a major-label success since their second album. They have a fucking Broadway show based on a Grammy-winning album. "Indie music" is, by definition, music released by an artist without the assistance or artistic meddling of a major record company. "Indie" wasn't a style of music until the predisposition of a generation's worth of independent artists began to reveal a set of tendencies. It is literally impossible for Green Day to be labeled 'indie' unless you are absolutely wrong about what you are saying.

Haha, yeah man you got me pegged. Anyone here will tell you, that is me to a T.

That would require listening to it. I think I'll pass.

Less punk than Green Day's last five records? So we're looking at, like, Joni Mitchell-esque levels of punk here? Have you ever even heard punk music?

They looked like punks, but they did it for fashion!

What the fuck's that? Anarchy in the UK. What good is that to those of us in Utah, America? It was a Sex Pistols thing. They were British, they were allowed to go on about Anarchy in the UK. You don't live your life by lyrics.

tj be trolling. Saying '21 Guns' is an indie song is like saying Sheryl Crow is gangsta rap.
