I am a big Green Day fan, and for me to be a "big" fan of something it takes alot of convincing. I started listening to GD after "dookie" (as did everyone else), but when i heard 39/smooth, i fell in love. the lyrics are written like a modern day Shakespear, the compolation and arrangment of guitars and drums will blow your mind. You also must remember that the guys were only around the age of 16 when they recorded this album. it deals w/ all the problems that growing up involves; i.e. love, school, parents, friends, bordom and any other obstacal a teenage boy goes through. It helped me when i was 16 and i still listen to it almost more often than their other albums. A must get!! The album costs about $16 and is worth every cent. The songs range from emotional to heartfelt and there's even a cover song from a very well-known punk band :Operation Ivy. The guitars are very well thought out and the complete sound of this (their first album) is so much more complacated than the "post dookie" ones. In this album there are 19 songs, if you have listened to Green Day's newer records, you'll notice that there are more tracks for your money. If you heed my advice and purchase this album I promise that you won't be sorry.

A good review, but you might want to try breaking it down into shorter paragraphs to make it a bit easier to read. Cheers, Phil :O)
