Most likely won't happen but if they decide to push Royal Blood up to headliners they'd make a very strong sub. Absolutely zero chance. Less Than zero. If Tool play any festival over here, it’s Download and that won’t be until next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is so, so wrong. AM are absolutely massive and the biggest UK band. I’m 25 so they were the band when I was at school / college / university. They’re huge.

Jericode Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 As a counterpoint, I'm 23 and no-one I know really gives a shit about AM other than Dance Floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out in the real world people only remember them for that good on the dancefloor song and the changes when the sun goes down one. If that's the case then out in the 'real world' people only remember Metallica for that Enter the Sandman one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget the nothing else matters one too! Seriously though, outside of the North of England AM aren't that big a deal. Certainly not worthy of the hype flying about. they're a good band, better on record than live, with a few good choons but all this global supergroup stuff is way off. I wouldn't have minded going to see them at TRNSMT this year but I'm already at another festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) Glassjaw just announced a Brixton date for August 18th. ATG for them then, I'm guessing? Edited January 30, 2018 by dentalplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may not think they're that good but they're a huge band and a big deal all over the world... they play huge stadiums/arenas in South America, Asia, Australia, and obviously Europe. Not to mention they headline American festivals and sold out MSG last time they played. I mean look at who they're headlining Firefly with: Kendrick, Eminem, The Killers.. I think that shows they're more than just hype in the north of England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve1000 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Green Day haven't released anything anyone likes in 14 years. Arctics are massively bigger in the UK. 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edduk98 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 does anyone have any predictions/rumours for IOW 50th Anniversary? I know we got 8 acts already but its less than 5 months away and haven't got much else. Anyone got any ideas on what we can expect?? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point being each of Arctic Monkeys albums have been new and refreshing and gained them more fans and are only gonna get bigger, whereas Green Day are very much a band past their prime and are essentially still coasting off their renewed American Idiot success. Arctics would have to fuck it pretty hard with their new album to stop them becoming one of the biggest current global acts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day are lucky that American Idiot took off the way it did, otherwise they wouldn’t be anywhere near where they are now. Around the time of Warning they were in the gutter.
