Does Green Day Revel in Anti-Americanism?

Wednesday, October 25. 2006

Is Green Day anti-American? Does Green Day believe they are so much more intelligent and sophisticated than most Americans? Was it wrong for Green Day to film the video for 'American Idiot' in Europe? 

That's the word from Brandon Flowers of Killers' fame.

"You have Green Day and 'American Idiot'. Where do they film their DVD? In England," The Killers' frontman told The Word. "A bunch of kids screaming 'I don't want to be an American idiot' I saw it as a very negative thing towards Americans. It really lit a fire in me."

Explaining he was offended by the set-up, Flowers added: "You have the right to say what you want to say and what you want to write about, and I'm sure they meant it in the same way that Bruce Springsteen meant 'Born In The USA' and it was taken wrongly, but I was really offended when I saw them do that."
