This album is a combination of some of their earlier singles albums and is definitely one of their best. Thay started out as an almost swear-free group who wrote songs mostly about guys and the girls that they never got. It starts off with the catchy tune "At the Library," and from the beginning you know it's going to be a fun ride. It whips past you with three cords so fast that all 19 songs are done before you even know it. They only swear on one songs once, "Knowledge," which was actually written by some other band. This song is kind of a gateway in which The Band became what they are now. My personal favorite is "Dry Ice," a good Love song. This album is hard to find in stores, because it was independently produced. If you like Green Day, you'll also like Blink 182, Lit, and Kid Rock. Best Green Day Album This has got to be the best Green Day album ever. I can listen to the whole cd, without skipping a song. Sure, a lot of the songs are about girls and such since Green Day were still teenagers, but the songs are still great. The old drummer, John, was on this album, so the drumming does sound a little bit different. This is simply one of the best albums of all time, and if you're a Green Day fan and you don't have it then you must have problems. The only let down is that the cover of Knowledge, an Operation Ivy Song seems a bit too slow once you hear how great the Operation Ivy version is. Recommended songs: At the Library, I Was There, Disappearing Boy, Green Day, Going to Pasalacqua, and Dry Ice. Green Day's Masterpiece 1,039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours is without a doubt Green Day's best album. It is actually a compilation of their independantly released ep's. They take songs from the album 39 Smooth, the ep's Slappy ep and 1,000 Hours. The unusual title comes from the combination of the titles of their previous releases. The last track I Want to Be Alone is off the compilation Flipside "The Big One." This album is straight forward punk unlike their later albums which are still great but nothing compared to this. The first set of songs, tracks 1 through 10 are from 39 Smooth. The lead off track At the Library is an excellent song. The music is perfect and Billie Joe's voice is great. This album is also cool because every song has a really catchy hook. Don't Leave Me is another great song. It's a short fast punk song. The next 3 songs are amazing. I Was There is a song about looking back and remembering things that happened in your life. The next song Disappearing Boy is about wanting to disappear from life sometimes to block out things you don't want to know about. Their title song, Green Day is another fast catchy punk song. The next song Going to Pasalacqua will have you singing it all day long. I also forgot to mention that on these songs there is really great background vocals supplied by Mike and John. 16 is a song about growing up and getting older and the responsibilites you have. Road to Acceptance is about when people Live their lives worrying about what someone else thinks about you. Insted of doing what you want to do you try to walk the road of acceptance if you will. Rest is a slow song about breaking up with a girl and not havingpeace within yourself because you're not really sure if it's over. The Judge's Daughter is a mid tempo punk song. This also ends the 39 Smooth album. The four song Slappy ep begins with the Ultra catchy Paper Lanterns. This is one of My Favorite songs on this album as well as one of My Favorite Green Day songs. This is another relationship song about a guy who can't stop thinking about his ex girlfriend and the problems he has seeing her with other guys. There is also a good guitar solo in this song. People will say that Bille Joe is a bad guitar Player but it depends on who you're comparing him to. If you're comparing him to Eddie Van Halen or Steve Vai of course he's not going to be good but as a punk guitarist he's amazing. He's very good at that style of music. Why Do You Want Him is yet another ended relationship song about a girl who was obviously dumped by her boyfriend and couldn't get over it. 409 in your Coffeemaker is another one of my favortie songs by Green Day. Don't let the title fool you the song actually has a meaning. It's about wasting you time daydreaming and thinking about why you had the problems you did.
