I bought the album the day it came out. It sounds really weird in comparison that other Green Day albums. First of all, it features piano, a first, and a lot of piano, not just one little track, but nearly half the album, if not more. Secoundly, it also has a bit of a Russian folk and polka feel in some songs like "Peacemaker" & "Viva la Gloria (Little Girl)" and others have a sad 90's rock ballad feel like "Restless Heart Syndrome", and "21 Guns". But all in all, it wasn't quite as bad as I expected. Still, could've been MUCH better.

I'm a big Green Day fan, i loved American Idiot and i love 21st Century Breakdown sure it isn't as succesful as American Idiot but it's still a pretty great album. I think when they play live, is when you'll see the album at it's best.
I'm already hoping that they release a live DVD/CD album like Bullet In A Bible.

I didn't really like the album.
Listened to it about 10 times and got sick.
Although the tour is being fantastic (old songs played @.@)

Wait, if you didn't like the album, why did you listen to it 10 times?

Anyway, these are the only songs I like from the album. Although, "Viva la Gloria (Little Girl)" and "Peacemaker" aren't the traditional Green Day sound, I still like them.

NO WAY.
Don't ever say that to me, I hate Blink.
Besides that, I don't think their voice is similar.

No, no. I'm the same. Well, when I liked MCR, I hated Blink, and now I equally dislike the both. I see little similarity myself.
artbreaker.

I liked Green Day back when they did Tales From Topographic Oceans.

Oh wait, wrong band. Guess I never liked Green Day.
