Tre' is a freaking masterpiece! SO underrated! I've personally got it just below Dookie, American Idiot and Warning at #4 on my rankings! Uno is really good too! Dos is my least favorite of the three and just above Father Of All down at the bottom of my rankings but I respect it for what it was. Dos is great compared to FOAM, lol!
I love him and so happy he got sober for himself, his kids and his beautiful wife. They deserve him at his best and he deserves all the happiness in the world.
I feel like this record took a profound toll on Billie Joe and is probably the biggest contributing factor to his eventual collapse in 2012. Very sad that he suffered so much for this beautiful piece of art. A landmark rock album of the 21st century.

I met the love of my life and my partner of 10 years at a Green Day concert during the trilogy tour. We're both huge fans and bonded over our love for the band. He moved countries right before the show, so the only reason we met was because the tour got rescheduled. If Billie hadn't gone to rehab I would be a completely different person with a different life. I think about that a lot. When you take the time to heal and care for yourself, you make the world a better place. The ripples of positive change impact others in a million different ways you'd never expect.
The crowd was so awful and lame for that performance I have no idea why anyone blamed him for acting that way. Watch the entire set, He worked his ass off and got nothing in response from them. I 1000% would have acted the same way if I performed for 30 minutes to such an awful audience then they cut my set short for usher.
Dirty Rotten Bastards is a good song, personally i really like Fuck Time, Stray Heart, Let Yourself Go, Kill The DJ, Stay The Night, 99 Revolution, Nuclear Family and basically the whole trilogy album
Tre and Mike are amazing friends, man. Went smashing right alongside him. It's shit like that why this band is still world touring and producing new music.
When Billie said "I'm not Justin Beiber mother f$%^&*." I felt that. No you're not Billie and even though he was struggling seeing him smash his guitar was so rock n roll. Glad to see him make it out of this time period but also the trilogy is wonderful.
Honestly, I love the Trilogy. There are some absolute bangers in it, some nice songs. I am very biased when it comes to Green Day, I admit, but I just love all of their songs. Like, starting from At the Library and ending at Graffitia (and of course, the two new songs). They're my favorite band, they're my band. I am confident that I can find something great in every single one of their songs.
Personally thought the demos where better because I similar vibe to their kerplunk/ slappy hours albums/eps. Which are some of my favorites of all their material because of the rawness, the riffs and guitar solos
You wouldn't know it's one of his favorite albums, since the only song before the Hella Mega Tour the only song guaranteed at every show from that album is Know Your Enemy. Hopefully they will continue to play 21 Guns and other songs through the next tour, though it's hard to see that happening since it's in support of the new album Saviors, and the anniversary of both Dookie and American Idiot as well. Add on top of that it seems it will be Hella Mega 2.0 in the sense that they are co-headlining so will probably not get enough time to play both old albums in full as you may expect for those anniversary tours, as well as staples from other older albums and the new one. I don't know why they didn't just go the Revolution Radio Tour route and just tour on their own with one or two openers per show, even if that meant going back to Amphitheaters in many cities. I'm sure they could do some arena's and stadiums on their own as well like they did then too.
This is my favorite album of all time. As a child in 2007 my childhood friend made me listening to Green Day and I loved that. I was so inspired I wanted to create a band like them. So in 2008 when I saw that they were recording a new album I was so happy and when I listened to the demos, I was so in love with the sound and the music, I was just yet at the beginning of my teenage. I can’t describe what the feeling I have when I’m listening to this masterpiece.. it changed my life as the musician I am today, even if I turned more into grunge now..
Trilogy was amazing.. understandable why the IHeart incident happened, especially after hearing the events that led up to it.. IMO only, Billie has made sacrifices to his fans that (some) would never truly understand.. An amazing artist I feel is an understatement.. It goes beyond that.. and that's why I will always be a true fan.. Not a single song that I dislike.. I favor some over others but I love all the music Green Day Composes.. Side Projects and all.. I never had an interest in becoming a Guitarist/Singer until my childhood friend had me listen to "Dookie".. Forever changed my life.. I grabbed up the first 2 albums and every album since.. Green Day is #1 for me.. Always.. And Billie.. I can't thank you enough for inspiring me to be who I Truly am.. That's from the heart man.. Thank You.. 🤘🤘🤘❤️❤️❤️
To put it in simple terms: people just didn´t get the trilogy. The majority of teens and tweens who listened to Green Day back in the day (2012) had no clue about dirty 60´s Rock´n Roll. The people who do have a clue and appreciate that kind of music don´t listen to Green Day because Greeen Day are "too young" for their generation as a band. If the Trilogy would have come out in the 60´s, it would have been a banger writing musical history racing to No. 1 on the charts for weeks. You wanna understand the trilogy? Get to a dirty, funky small club, get the DJ to play that stuff and get fuckin wasted. Have the time of your life that night, sober up the next fiew days, listen back to the Trilogy. You´ll love it.
I think not many people know that there's a whole documentary about the album, which was pretty fun. I think it was a pre-order bonus, but I don't know if it ever got an own release after that.
No shit really??? I MUST get it. it's so fucked up what he was going through and it's an unappreciated work of art I love all of green day and trilogy is one of my favorites idgaf I love pretty much every song uno especially is a masterpiece 🩵💕🩵 it has so many love songs it's like sweet and badass and dreamy I love how danceable it is it's partly feeling
Still think iheartradio were just as much in the wrong here - why would you tell one of the biggest bands a third of the way through one of their biggest hits 'oh you guys need to wrap it up'? If they had have given a signal before the song or after to wrap up that would have been more understandable, but right in the middle? 🤨
Uno and Tre are solid albums, much better than Father of All and in my opinion better than Rev Radio (as an album) to me, only half of that album is great, but the great songs on Rev Radio are fantastic. But Uno is better
UNO DOS TRE is one of my favorite Green Day era’s by far. It’s just down and dirty rock and roll songs. That’s it. Sure, it’s not an epic like AI or 21CBD, but that’s alright. We don’t need that every album.
