Free Music Review: "Ha Ha We're Not Dead Yet!"
Hit: 5 Stars
You could fill 3 discs with the shenanigans of Green Day, and I'll admit they left a lot out on this album, but this is the ultimate prelude to the operatic, arena-rock smash hit to follow. Remember the good old punk days of Green Day with "Shenanigans".
Here's a run-down of the tracks...
01. Suffocate
A song about living under influence with a driving beat, SOUNDS LIKE GREEN DAY! It took me a few tries to appreciate this song, but it really is good. 3/5 stars
02. Desensitized
A surreal, Smiths-esque beginning soon explodes into a driving song about the Internet, reminicent of "Brain Stew". This song spent a few weeks at the top of my iPod's Top 25 Most Played list. Fantastic, with lyrics that ring so true (why do you think you're online right now?) 5/5 stars
03. You Lied
A song with a good beat and fairly bland lyrics, "You Lied" never got far. It's not a highlight, but it's not filler, and good to listen to while driving. 4/5 stars
04. Outsider
My mom liked this. A Ramones cover, done pretty damn well too. 4/5 stars
05. Don't Wanna Fall In Love
I love this hyper little song about hating love (ironic, isn't it?) A creative guitar solo for this Green Day era too. 5/5 stars
06. Espionage
Green Day's second-ever instrumental (the first being "Last Ride In" from Nimrod), and their only good one. I love this James Bond-esque tribute to suspense movie music. Note: They used this for the movie "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me". It's either that or "Scooby Doo". 5/5 stars
07. I Want To Be On TV
Now, what's the point of doing a cover if it wasn't a good song to begin with? I don't like this song much, not very good music, a little funny, though, when they yell "Then the world WILL BE ALL MINE!" 2/5 stars
08. Scumbag
A short song of hate written by the bassist Mike Dirnt, not very great, but okay. 3/5 stars
09. Tired of Waiting for You
Now THIS is a good song! A cover from The Kinks, and relatively quiet and easy to listen to. Sure, it rambles a little bit, but it's still far from filler! 5/5 stars
10. Sick Of Me
Now, this is what you would call a filler song. An uncreative anthem of failed relationship, not really worth listening. You hear the first line and you've heard it all, really. 2/5 stars
11. Rotting
An uncharacteristically morbid song from Green Day, sung in a lower octave, giving it a rich, tired sense. I don't know what happened to Billie Joe to prompt him to write this, but I like the result. 5/5 stars
12. Do Da Da
Okay, another filler, but one good thing about it is you can hear Billie laugh at the end. "Do Da Da" was meant to be the original title for "Stuck With Me" from Insomniac, and vise-versa, so that's the shenanigan factor of it. 3/5 stars
13. On the Wagon
A slow, driving song that is gently sung strikes home as an alternative love ballad. This is pretty good, and kinda catchy once you hear it a couple of times. 4/5 stars
14. Ha Ha You're Dead
This is the other song Mike wrote on the CD, and widely regarded as the best song on the whole thing. And regarded correctly! The music is great, the lyrics are great and it's so happily hateful I play it over and over again. The chorus is the best part. Viva Hate! FOREVER! 5/5 stars
So, buy "Shenanigans", my friends. Buy, buy and reminice (sp)
about the good old days of Green Day, but celebrate the splendor yet to come! Cheers.
