Uno! 2012




¡Uno! is the ninth studio album by American punk rock band Green Day, released on September 24, 2012, by Reprise Records. It is the first of three albums in the ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, ¡Tré! trilogy, a series of studio albums to be released from September 2012 to January 2013. Green Day recorded the album from February[5] to June [6] 2012 at Jingletown Studios in Oakland, California.

Artwork of the album was revealed in a video uploaded to YouTube and the track list of the album, which consist of 12 songs was announced on June 26, 2012. The first single from the album, titled "Oh Love", was released on July 16, 2012. The second single "Kill the DJ" was released on European iTunes Stores on August 15, 2012. The third single "Let Yourself Go" was released on the US iTunes Store on September 5, 2012, and a promotional single "Nuclear Family" was released on their YouTube channel on September 12, 2012. A music video for "Stay the Night" was released on Rolling Stone and their YouTube channel on September 24, 2012. The album has received generally positive reviews from critics. Most of the songs leaked on the internet before the release of the album.

A documentary, called ¡Quatro!, about the making of the trilogy was announced. It will be directed by Samuel Bayer, who directed all the American Idiot music videos and Bullet in a Bible.

In February 2012, Billie Joe Armstrong announced that the band was in the studio, recording material for a new album.[5] In the statement, he said, "We are at the most prolific and creative time in our lives... This is the best music we've ever written, and the songs just keep coming. Instead of making one album, we are making a three album trilogy. Every song has the power and energy that represents Green Day on all emotional levels. We just can't help ourselves ... We are going epic as fuck!"[7]

The band started work by rehearsing every other day and making songs.[8] They recorded the album at Jingletown Studios in Oakland, California.[9] The band recorded 38 songs[10] and initially thought of making a double album.[8] Armstrong suggested making a trilogy of albums like Van Halen's Van Halen I, Van Halen II and Van Halen III.[8] He stated in an interview, "The songs just kept coming, kept coming. I'd go, Maybe a double album? No, that's too much nowadays. Then more songs kept coming. And one day, I sprung it on the others: 'Instead of Van Halen I, II and III, what if it's Green Day I, II and III and we all have our faces on each cover?'"[8]

In an interview to Rolling Stone, Armstrong stated that the theme of ¡Uno! would be different from that of 21st Century Breakdown and American Idiot, and would not be a third rock opera.[8] He also added that music on the record would be "punchier, more power pop – somewhere between AC/DC and the early Beatles" than the band's previous albums.[8] He also stated that few songs on the album would also sound like garage rock and dance music.[8] According to Armstrong, the song "Kill the DJ" was "straight-up dance music" and "four-on-the-floor rhythm", which the band has never done before.

¡Uno! received generally positive reviews from contemporary music critics.[32][33] At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 66, which indicates "generally favorable reviews", based on 31 reviews.[33] David Fricke of Rolling Stone complimented the album's "12 blasts of hook-savvy mosh-pit pop" and found it to be a "plain relief" after the "weight and worry" of the band's previous two albums, observing "a hipper, richer grip in the details."[29] Melissa Maerz of Entertainment Weekly called the album "a welcome switch from high concept to high energy."[24] Kim Taylor Bennett of Time Out commented that Green Day "still sound fresh, balancing a cocky strut with tenderness and a playful pop nous."[34] BBC Music's Ian Winwood commended the band for eschewing their previous albums' "grandly theatrical flourishes" and found ¡Uno! to mostly be "a work of masterfully controlled music."[35] Mojo recommended it to fans of the band's 1994 album Dookie and stated, "your favourite slacker-punks are, briefly, back."[26] Scott Heisel of Alternative Press praised its "loud, fast, catchy-as-fuck punk rock" and wrote that its "stripped down instrumentation" and "more direct lyrics" are "mutually beneficial."[36] Scott Kara of The New Zealand Herald called the album "a powerful, poignant record".[3]

Ed Power of Hot Press observed "over-familiarity" and "less to say on Uno" than on the band's previous work, stating, "they are doing what they do best. Nothing less, but certainly nothing more."[37] Slant Magazine's Yorgo Douramacos called the album "fairly strong", but felt that the songs "sound like only slightly altered versions of previous entries in the Green Day catalogue."[30] Although he found the album "solidly enjoyable", Q commented that "they might have been wiser to mix things up from the start."[28] Drowned in Sound's Marc Burrows viewed that the album sees the band "releasing the pressure and defaulting to what they do best" and stated, "it's all a little slight, but that's really part of the charm, reveling in its disposable pop."[38] Jason Heller of The A.V. Club stated, "filler abounds, and it doesn’t land with quite as much delirious abandon as it once did, but Armstrong’s power-pop impulse can still pack a face-splitting punch."[23] Allmusic editor Stephen Thomas Erlewine felt that its "big, crisp, and clean" sound "undercuts some of the punkiness of Green Day's intentions", but complimented their "attack" as "precise" and wrote that the "huge" hooks "gleefully bludgeon doubters into blissful submission."[2] Mikael Wood of Spin stated, "More than any stylistic flourishes, it's the breadth of emotion on ¡Uno!, from first-date tenderness to pre-rehab rage, that makes the album feel like it's supposed to be part of a trilogy".[31]

In a negative review, Andy Gill of The Independent panned "Green Day's devotion to the most basic of rock formats" and called the music "patronising corporate rock masquerading, in sweary adolescent anthems as somehow anti-establishment."[39] The newspaper's Simon Price felt their "political edge [has] gone blunt" and viewed the music as unadventurous.[40] Randall Roberts of the Los Angeles Times asserted that the album was too "typical" and "commercial" to be a punk album, writing that it "feels like the work of a band that has painted itself into an aesthetic corner."[41] Dave Simpson of The Guardian called ¡Uno! "a very decent fist of sounding like their twentysomething selves", but wrote that "the pace doesn't vary and the recent social commentary" of the band's previous albums "has given way to more teenage concerns".[25] Paul Mardles of The Observer criticized the album as "largely throwaway, its frenzied, phlegm-flecked songs littered with sentiments ... that sound daft coming from a 40-year-old frontman."[42] Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune was amivalent towards its "back-to-basics" approach and perceived a lack of "memorable lyric".[43] Barry Nicolson of NME found the album more comparable to "the three albums that followed" Dookie, noting "highs that prove unsustainable, and lows that hope you're too adrenalised to notice."[
