Ryan, you made me curious. I never liked Green Day really, until last year I was listening to American Idiot on a car drive all the way through, and then later on a sunny autumn walk via headphones. It's fantastic and sounds brilliant. And the guys come up with some clever ideas, given that punk isn't the most sophisticated genre naturally. AI became one of my most loved albums of last year - better late than never. "We Are The Waiting" and "Novocaine" being among my favourites. I also got into their back catalogue and found some cool songs.

Right now I'm listening to the new songs from the link you gave. Sounds good. "Know Your Enemy" is pretty simple though. Can't wait to give it a whole listen from start to finish. I like that it has a similar sound to AI, but from what I hear a bit of a different feel. And the epic, 9-minute songs are missing.
