    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.

    It's great to hear them back on home turf, stripped of their last two records' strained conceptualism, instead just spitting out random, bratty nuggets about uncomplicated things like feeling horny and outrageous women. [Jan 2013, p.94]

    They're much more at ease losing themselves in power-pop harmonies on Lazy Bones and embracing '60s garage on Stop When The Red Lights Flash. [Jan 2013, p.108]

    With its terrible lyrics, uninspired and generic music and general sense of boredom, the only positive to glean from the wreckage was at least it couldn't get worse.

  1. Great follow-up to the first album and really sets groundwork for the third and final album to finale itself. The upbeat tones and relatable themes make it a wonderful continuation as the second part in this masterpiece. Expand
  2. The second album of the trilogy goes to a lower level in the quality of the songs. ¡Dos! is a good album, but it's quite far from ¡Uno!. It rereminds Foxboro Hot Tubs' Stop Drop And Roll, with its garage influence. None of the songs reach the level of Let Yourself Go and Stay The Night. The best tracks of the record are Stray Heart and Time. The other songs are ok, except Night Life, which is terrible. However, generally speaking, it's quite good, even if it's one of the worst Green Day's albums. Expand
  3. This album it's too strange, a mix of songs very louders like **** Time or Red Lights Flash and ballads like Amy and one song.....for me it's the worst song in the history of Green Day's career (Nightlife)....too far than their fans expected Expand
  4. Yup, it all sounds the same as the past 2 albums - lazy and uninspired

    I used to love Green Day, even told myself that I would never get ti
    red of them

    But their recent antics, acting like they're 20 years old, cussing for no reason other to sound hip, and genuinely lazy cookie-cutter songs have completely disintegrated any hope I have for them musically
