Stop Drop and Roll Dips in the Charts, Reviews

By Delfina /Jun. 6, 2008 / Comments

Rolling Stone reported that Stop Drop and Roll sank in the charts this week. It was at number 21 last week, now it's at 103.

Nevertheless, the reviews of the album keep coming and they're all good. This one is from New Zealand. Here's a few more: 1, 2, 3. My favorite line:

With hot-rod riffs and '60s-radio harmonies, the Tubbies provide a summertime gem. The songs are short; the snarled-lip lyrics are sublime. Good to see Green Day having fun again.

A short video clip and some photos of the FBHT shows in Oakland and Crockett, from May 15 and 16, were posted on the forum by hardtoconcentrate.
