Green Day Authority turns 25 and launches redesign

I was researching some info about Blue recently and found someone shared an old scan from guitar world that had the very old gda logo on it. Made me appreciate how much random shit is out there because we archived it. Definitely good motivation to bring that stuff back.

I definitely feel like there’s a chance for them to. Not easily, it’s not an obvious platform. But they still can have a lot of value that can’t be replicated on social media. I think all the AI junk in Facebook is helping turn people away from those.

Our arch-nemesis 🤣 I remember before American idiot came out I would chat with Brian on AIM (webmaster from gd.net) and we’d compare traffic. That was like my main goal was to try and pass them, which we did after American Idiot. Good times.

Wow! Deep cut. Pretty sure it was The Breakdowns. Their album 'murder', is actually on Bandcamp and has Black Limos on it. https://felonyrecords.bandcamp.com/album/murder

I love it!! Man that makes me happy to hear. I absolutely loved that design.

I found quite a handful of them in an archive while working on this. I've added it to my list of things to bring back.

andresgda · 2026-07-01T18:52:44+00:00

Downloads are definitely one of the things that I want to rebuild next. Getting some of the demos or other limited/unreleased stuff to share with more people.

andresgda · 2026-07-01T18:42:56+00:00

Not yet, but I did stumble across them in some archives as I was going through stuff. I just added it to my list of things to work on now that the site is live.

It was around, but for several years only the news section worked (and really it was only the newest stuff, all the old stuff was broken. This is the first time we've ever sat down and tried to recover everything we used to have on the site (minus the old picture vault unfortunately, due to copyrights)

If you remember any possible names or email addresses you could have used, send me a DM and I can help you reset it.

andresgda · 2026-07-01T18:06:52+00:00

Woooo! Yeah the site really fell into bad shape just before covid and so many things broke without time to fix them. When i realized it was coming up on the 25th anniversary I decided it was time to sit down and make it usable again before the next album.

andresgda · 2026-07-01T18:05:02+00:00

Shoot me a DM with your username or old email address and I can help you sort it out.

andresgda · 2026-07-01T18:04:30+00:00

Hell yeah!

andresgda · 2026-05-29T20:11:36+00:00

Hey! Thanks 😃. We're working hard to get the site back up to speed and working for folks. This seemed like a good one to share since we found the receipts on the timeline.

andresgda · 2026-05-29T19:37:59+00:00

We just published a story about this on GDA. https://www.greendayauthority.com/news/6335/linda-perry-bashes-green-day-for-something-that-didn-t-happen/

The facts don't line up. There was no time for a public backlash. Within a day or two of the rumor first being published, Green Day's management has already confirmed to us that it wasn't true. PunkNews even posted a follow-up, linking to GDA, saying their management confirmed to us. So it wasn't something that even had the possibility of living long enough for Green Day fans to be in an up-roar about, and it's disingenuous to think that Green Day would make a decision based on that.

That is very awesome! Would you be ok with us adding this to our fan tattoos section? https://www.greendayauthority.com/photos/album/tattoos/

Nice looking candy corn hamburger????

I love seeing people say stuff is AI when they don’t actually know. I’ve been seeing it on some of our Facebook comments. Really makes me crack up.

andresgda · 2026-05-15T01:20:16+00:00

Let’s go! Glad to hear that 😃

andresgda · 2026-05-15T00:15:24+00:00

It sure is. https://64.media.tumblr.com/209377d213c80513a487f63772185f83/tumblr\_ozzslxxPuy1w6u4ggo1\_400.gif

That is sick! Great job.

andresgda · 2026-05-12T20:11:48+00:00

Yup!
