I got "Uno" and it was a pretty decent pop-rock album that succeeded for the most part in what it was supposed to accomplish. I wish I could have seen Green Day play these live, but hopefully they are keeping a lot of these songs in their current setlists. Definitely all three would be on my 'stranded on an island' list. Dirty Rotten Bastards.! I love that one (though the first line seems like asking for trouble :)Īnyway, I think I will always be listening to these 3 albums. Also X-kid, A Little Boy Named Train, Walk Away. Tre is awesome, I guess it's more rock-oriented. Hard to say 'favorite' though when there are so many songs I like this much on all 3. Some of my favorite songs of the 3 CDs are on Dos: Lazy Bones and Baby Eyes. Dos is complex, with all sorts of interesting and awesome songs like Night Life, Lady Cobra, Stray Heart (rockabilly?), Wow That's Loud (psychedelic?). This is a great CD to turn up loud while driving. Great songs like Nuclear Family, Carpe Diem, Let Yourself Go, Stay the Night, etc. If I were to roughly summarize them, I'd say Uno is classic Green Day- fast, fun, hard rocking. But even though they incorporate all these far-flung elements into the songs, they are still very clearly Green Day songs with that super-tight punchy rock core. There are even some guitar solos! I like the dirty one in Amanda, for example. In addition to punchy punk, there's funk, 50s-60s pop, rockabilly, psychedelic. It seems almost like Green Day took an 'anything goes' mindset into these songs and let themselves go in all sorts of different directions (they've always done this to some extent, but took it further with these). They really come alive when you turn up the volume. Sort of like that Led Zeppelin 'light and shade' thing. These CDs have an awesome loose, live feel to them, and yet the the music is extremely clean, punchy, and tight. There's so much variety of musical styles in them that there's not much reason to listen to anything else :) There doesn't seem to be a theme underlying them like in American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown, but it's a nice change to be able to switch around to different songs without messing up the story. I've been listening to them pretty much non-stop whenever I'm in my car. For various reasons I lost track of them after 21st Century Breakdown and only recently finally got these three CDs a few months ago (2017).

Uno, Dos, and Tre have become my favorite Green Day albums so far.
