I really liked it. I thought 21st Century Breakdown was under-rated. Although, it did take me a few listens to properly get into it. Everyone enjoyed American Idiot, really. Both are nowhere near as good as Dookie - Green Day's best album.

I've yet to hear Dookie. I know in my musical adventures I will.

I've started picking up a lot of albums by bands I've never heard of and they turn out to be excellent. I think this is because I've no expectation of what they're gonna do unlike U2, and not sure what it's gonna be. When you see albums going for a dollar, you may as well grab 10 because that's how much one usually sets you back anyway, by a bigger-name band.

21st Century Breakdown is 3 pounds on amazon.

Somewhere in the back of my head it says an order over 25 pounds can ship to Sweden for free...

I think maybe I should make an order that big

Grab some other U2 album or DVD along with it and some random item (if you still can) which sounds good and then go for it.

No help though to me. I usually just keep at eBay anyway - their prices are mostly alright except for some sellers who charge way too much.

It seems you can only use Amazon through debit card, gift card or credit card - none of which I have. I'd be even more surprised if Amazon even carries the stuff I'm after. Anyway, the record store is usually where I hit up if I need something new and interesting; though I do my best to avoid mainstream stores except when it comes to the other mainstream bands I'm into.

I think I'm gonna look for some more albums that I want now on amazon, any ideas?

What styles of music you into and do you want recent or older music?

I guess I'm mostly into rock like U2, Green Day and Muse

And good music, I enjoy Beatles too.

Good guitar rock, blues, that kinda stuff? The trick is to really branch out into styles you're not familiar with. That's how I got into much of the stuff I'm into.

Try these for a few good recommendations - I listen to this stuff quite regularly.

Yeah, I noticed. Get that too with International Superhits & Dookie. That will start you off nicely.
