    It's an excellent Green Day album--one of its best--a catchy, revealing work that surprises with its willingness to explore ideas that the band members may not have invented, but which, fed through Green Day's filter, become theirs.

    Twenty years on from "Kerplunk," Green Day couldn't possibly replicate its early urgency, but the band can manage to keep its sound nicely unhinged.

    Musical joie de vivre courses through Dos!, along with enough variety to ensure this is more than just, um, Uno! Part 2. [10 Nov 2012, p.52]

    Judging from the spirited but wildly inconsistent material on this trilogy's first two entries, a little quality control would've helped, perhaps funneling the best of the three albums into one solid offering.

    On "Lazy Bones," that confessional spirit adds urgency to the band's power-chord crunch. Elsewhere, though, there's a troubling lack of focus.

    Dos! is the sophomore slump of a trilogy that's shaping up to be far less fun than it was supposed to be.

    Many of the tracks on Dos! are merely soulless specters of previous work from Green Day's "golden-age."

If you thought (musically) Uno was boring, Dos is here, and it will blow everything Uno did musically out of the water. If you are familiar with Green Day's side project "The Foxboro Hottubs" you know what to expect. Lots of dirty, grindy effects in the music. But it still maintains a great Green Day feel. Songs like Lady Cobra, Stop When The Red Lights Flash, and Makeout Party, are all great upbeat songs, the album also contains some slower songs, such as Wild One and the immensely beautiful Amy. Despite that the album is shorter than I thought it was going to be, this album is fantastic from start to finish. Expand

It's much, much better than their previous album 'Uno!'. It has that genuine Green Day sound, what more would you want? If you are expecting more then just wait for the next installment, that is going to blow everyone's mind because Green Day has thought all of it through and they want to give us something worth listening to. And I think that's why they're releasing their albums back-to-back because they don't really want to disappoint their fans. I have this weird feeling that when we'd listen to the trilogy at once, that would truly turn into a masterpiece. Expand

    I started listening to ¡DOS! with high expectations, as I really liked its predecessor, ¡UNO!. The first songs were outstanding (I was reluctant to listen to the second track, because of the swear word in its title, but it was actually a pretty good song), but the album took a steep downhill in its second half. What was Green Day thinking with Nightlife? It was one of the worst songs I have listened to, it was that bad. Wild One and Lady Cobra were meh, and so would’ve been Makeout Party if it wasn’t for the bass solo, which was super dope. I couldn’t really get on board with Wow! That’s Loud either. This album still had some good tracks, but it’s far from Green Day’s best work. I hope they didn’t run out of steam, because I still have to listen to ¡TRE!, and I’m hoping it’s a lot better than this album. Highlights: F**k Time, Lazy Bones, Stray Heart, and Ashley.
