WOW. There are so many things wrong with that statement it is almost amazing.

Part of me knows that you're a troll, but another part hopes that you're honestly this dumb.

I think Greenday did it when they released their 21st Century Breakdown album. THat album sucks...HARD!
1) You're about seven years too late for the Green Day hate. Srsly. They sold out when they released American Idiot. Get it right.

2) 21st Century Breakdown is one of the best albums they've made. It takes everything that felt sloppy or rushed or half-assed about American Idiot and improves on it. I mean, the story makes no fucking sense, but I dare you to find a rock opera with a plot that does make sense.

They'll probably never make another Dookie but whatever. They're still awesome.

Can anyone else think of some other bands that people would describe as "sellouts"?
"Selling out" is something only snotty little teenage hipsters and/or scene queens give a damn about. Saying "selling out" is their way of saying "my favorite band actually became good so I can't listen to them anymore."
