That's the one actually expects from the Green Day punk, "dirty" sound. This "music" does really well to the soft blended recent albums (ie 21.st Century Breakdown and Uno, Dos, Tre trilogy) Of course, the songs actually knows all, to State of Shock is nothing new here, but I think every single song on this CD does it well, to be so good as not mixed. Clear are Oh Love and Stray Heart fit in this version only eingeschrenkt mainstream or radio, but especially the quieter songs of Dos and Tre come here to its best advantage and Billes voice is just brilliant thing here very nice to hear as before again is. Of course, there are always changes to the text and sometimes playful album version is just one or maybe Billie sings something wrong, but that's what makes me the charm of this album from. Pure and unadulterated almost reminds me a bit of Dookie and Insomniac (which you can read on the yes Covergestaltung already see. Live recordings as "Anyways")
Summary :
- Great sound - Billie's voice and Tre come to the fore on drums - Again a "real" Green Day album - Green Day show that they can let it rip properly without admixture
Shortcoming:
- High price (yet) - Only 1! new track instead of promised not to publish songs - Contain Unfortunately only selected songs, I miss a little bit the trilogy, so if please please bring each album as a demo.
Therefore, 4 stars, not because it has failed, but because my 1 Bonus Track 1 and Akkustikaufnahme of Stay The Night not enough new are like we were promised.
