Green Day Vs Walmart
05/22/2009
.
(antiMusic) Green Day refuse to clean up their act for the country's largest retailer. Despite having the No. 1 album on the charts right now, if you look for the disc at Walmart you will be SOL. Walmart has a long standing policy of not carrying CDs with objectionable language or content and often artist are forces to offer the retailer a "clean" version of their album if they want it to be sold at Walmart stores. Green Day refused to clean up their latest "21st Century Breakdown." "They want artists to censor their records in order to be carried in there," frontman Billie Joe Armstrong said. "We just said no. We've never done it before. You feel like you're in 1953 or something." - Read the AP report for more
