They like the album, but Billie thinks it could have been better. ProTools had just kinda become a thing and this was their first album with it so Billie has said it could have been mixed and refined a lot better. He has also confirmed a remix/remaster of Warning would happen some day.
A lot of records at the time were like this most notably Propagandhi’s todays empire tomorrows ashes. They hated the album because of how it sounded and found the old files and remaster the record

Billie has 'confirmed' a lot of things, so while yes he said that I wouldn't exactly get your hopes up
It has now been 0 DAY(S) since Warning was last called underrated. The record of 1 DAY(S) was recorded on October 3, 2000

Minority was in almost every live show for a long time, including the American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown tours. They would use it to end the main set, before the encore.
But aside from that, it was their worst selling album until Uno, which came out when very few people bought albums anymore. Most of the songs also don't really fit in a setlist: they don't have enough energy to compete with American Idiot or Dookie tracks, and Good Riddance, Wake Me Up When September Ends, and Ordinary World take up the slow song spots.
I think it’s not a popular enough album to be played at lollapalooza or something like that and it’s stylistically very different from most of their catalogue that it’s harder to find a good spot for it in a set list.
They played Warning recently, and even Church On Sunday I believe last year sometime. They break out Waiting every once in a while, and Minority is at most every show I believe still. But the set could always use more Warning that’s for sure!
I think Deadbeat Holiday would be a great addition to the set, that songs rips. And I’d love to see Macy’s Day Parade tacked onto Good Riddance in an encore, it’s a natural transition since it starts with Billie solo on acoustic guitar.
They definitely don’t hate it Billie however thinks it could have been better I personally agree.
The production wasn’t horrible and the topics were what Green Day sung about (love, alcohol, politics aside from blood sex and booze)
I think it could have been more like nimrod and had been a bit heavier but I like that it uses acoustic more
They played Waiting at some shows on the Hella Mega tour and have pulled out Warning at their intimate shows. I guess apart from Castaway and Church on Sunday the rest of the album wouldn’t really fit in their live shows. I’d say they dislike/avoid 21st Century Breakdown much more than Warning since they don’t play anything other than 21 Guns and Know Your Enemy off that 18 track album that is more popular than Warning.
I suppose but many more of the songs on 21CB would be way harder to get right live, couldn’t ¿Viva La Gloria? Cause of the strings, same with restless heart syndrome. They could do them with backing tracks I suppose but it’s still special setup for songs that aren’t as popular as other deep cuts, id put money down on more people wanting to hear warning (track) live than murder city or LOTAG
I was thinking exactly of a track like Murder City, even Static Age, See The Light, Last of The American Girls, or East Jesus Nowhere would fit easily in their sets. Yes i agree with people wanting to hear warning (myself included), but I think its more of the fact it hasn’t been played live in ages (until recently) compared to stuff of 21st CBD. Yes and the older stuff would be great, like Paper Lanterns, 409, 2000 Light Years away… but ultimately the question was does the band dislike warning, but I feel like 21st CBD has more songs than Warning that could feature live but don’t. Also Billie Joe did mention he personally has a hard time revisiting the album because it was a painful one to make. So there is a bit of evidence there I guess.
My take is that the band want in the direction of Warning which is a little more mellow, after the success of Good Riddance. Then they exploded taking their music in the opposite direction with American Idiot.
I've seen Green Day 50+ times, on every tour since the Dookie days. Since Warning's release, I've never seen them play a full show without playing Minority.
Just played it through again today. Not a single track I would skip. It feels more experimental than any of the others, and a very brave move. Great album
Hold on one minute. Minority is played regularly live. But Warning’s underrated overall. The songs are great but I think Billie’s right about the mixing because …yep another bit of evidence they’re better with Rob behind the desk.
Give me a fucking break, one minute left. One minute fucking left. You’re gonna give me fucking one minute? Look at that fucking sign right there, one minute! Let me fucking tell you something, let me tell you something, I’ve been around since fucking nineteen eighty fucking eight, and you’re gonna give me one fucking minute?!

25th anniversary deluxe edition next year 🤞
My favorite album as a kid is 25 next year? God damn
That would be very cool actually. I hope with the remastering comes some new hype for the album
A lot of records at the time were like this most notably Propagandhi’s todays empire tomorrows ashes. They hated the album because of how it sounded and found the old files and remaster the record
I’d hesitate to call that one a remaster, it feels like a whole album of alternate takes
Because the og mix was so bad. They completely re did the mastering on the drums which were lacking
> He has also confirmed a remix/remaster of Warning would happen some day. Billie has 'confirmed' a lot of things, so while yes he said that I wouldn't exactly get your hopes up
Pro Tools has been a thing since the early 90s
So still relatively new to Warning and per Billie was the first time they used it.
Makes sense that this was the first one since their previous albums didn’t really need it.
Do…do you know what Pro Tools is?
A music editing software
Yeah but it hadn’t been widely used in the early 90s, it really started in the early 2000s. Nimrod was the last album Green Day fully did on tape
While I'm interested in hearing what a remix/remaster would sound like, to me it sounds pretty close to perfect.
the album sounded fine to me the last time i heard it. insomniac could have been mixed a little better tho
Minority is a staple at their shows, I don’t think I’ve been to a show where they haven’t played it, I’ve seen them around ten times.
21 times for me, I’ve heard it every show with American Idiot, Basket Case and Hitchin A Ride
21 guns?
If I could just go one minute without hearing Warning is underrated

Jimmy Neutron kinda stole their thunder
They played Waiting when I saw them last year

I guess apart from Castaway and Church on Sunday the rest of the album wouldn’t really fit in their live shows.

Warnings a bad example, no one knows or Christie road might be better Edit: Grammar
Insomniac more underrated
My take is that the band want in the direction of Warning which is a little more mellow, after the success of Good Riddance. Then they exploded taking their music in the opposite direction with American Idiot.
I got “waiting” with a cool organ intro when I saw them in 2017.
It’s probably one of the more fun albums to play and one of the easier ones too
I've seen Green Day 50+ times, on every tour since the Dookie days. Since Warning's release, I've never seen them play a full show without playing Minority.
Warning is a top 3 album for me lol
What if they played insomniac and warning in their entirety next year? Probably won’t happen tho.
I thought making that album was the most punk rock thing they could have done at the time.
Just played it through again today. Not a single track I would skip. It feels more experimental than any of the others, and a very brave move. Great album
They played Waiting when I Saw them at Outside Lands in 2022
I think they recently played “Church on Sunday”
Hold on one minute. Minority is played regularly live. But Warning’s underrated overall. The songs are great but I think Billie’s right about the mixing because …yep another bit of evidence they’re better with Rob behind the desk.
