Green Day - "Father Of All..."

Green Day has an amazing knack for writing songs that both, a) sound like nothing they've done before, and b) sound like classic Green Day the moment you hear it. And they've done it again with their latest single, "Father Of All...", the title track from their upcoming album due out February 7, 2020.

The new track takes the slightly-controlled chaos of the Foxboro Hot Tubs and smashes it up with a rip-roaring chorus, where the guitars double as buzz saws that not-so-much slice but carve the melody into your head, where it will stay; This is a tune you'll be humming for days.

Lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong recently told Rolling Stone that he "wanted to do something different," but if the song "Father Of All..." is any indication, there's one thing about Green Day's new album that is definitely not going to change: it's going to rock.

Music Video Du Jour ... Collective Soul - Hollywood (Live)

Collective Soul - Hollywood (Live) RANDOM THOUGHTS ... Awesome performance by Collective Soul on Leno in 2007. "Hollywood" is my favorite CS song of the post- Disciplined Breakdown era, but only when I hear it like this: Loud, and with guitars. The album version features keyboards more and doesn't pack the same punch as this live version. I like this version much better. ... Top notch stage show by the band, too.

Many of the most popular and recognizable card designs of all-time were produced during this decade. Below are my Top 10 baseball card designs of the '80s, based on overall attractiveness, creativity and/or innovation, and my own personal preferences. Card backs are not weighed as much in these rankings, but I like to read the backs of baseball cards, so bonus points are given to good design there as well.  So without further ado... 10. 1989 Donruss  The '89 Donruss set is easily distinguishable for the multi-colored borders at the top and bottom of the cards. This gradient effect (which Donruss debuted in 1988) would be emulated many times by many companies in the decades that followed. I also like the way Donruss utilized the space on the back of the cards. A maximum of five seasons worth of stats are displayed along w...
