This was my reaction http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFbDCv6g4Hg

hah imagine if they were up against themselves! "Nominated for best rock album is Green Day's Uno and Green Day's Dos!"

At first I thought: This is the greatest thing in the history of punk rock. Then I thought: This is the greatest thing in the history of music. Then I thought: This is the greatest thing in human history. Then I thougt: Next to the Big Bang which created matter, this is the most important and epic event in the history of this universe. All of these are truths.

Oh, hi everyone. I just woke up from a nap. Anything exciting going on?

So wait,3 albums=3 Grammys right?

Think this thread title needs changing to 'Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh Studio Albums' !

Breathe slowly...be calm...be calm...

We all know Green Day aren't going to create some half-arsed shitty excuse for three albums. If they're doing this, they're gonna do it properly. I'm sure that f they didn't have enough incredible songs to fill three albums they wouldn't for a second consider doing anything other than choosing the best and putting them on one. They obviously have so many epic songs that they absolutely love and feel they need to share with the world, I don't see how any fan could be against that!? It is bloody exciting that we're going to get SO much new music!

I'm currently listening to the last episode of Static Noise, laughing heartily at their ignorance.

Imagine what Andres' must have been like

In a parallel universe green day are currently doing something we expected.

release dates: Tuesday, September 25th 2012; Tuesday, November 13th 2012 and Tuesday, January 15th 2013

I can just imagine Billie talking to Rob "Y'know how the Beatles did that whole double album thing? Yeah, let's top that".

ME BEFORE GD RELEASE THEIR ALBUM TRILOGY AND GO ON TOUR ME AFTER GD RELEASE THEIR ALBUM TRILOGY AND GO ON TOUR

They're making up for the long waits between previous albums

Just realised: Uno = y'know = Billie Tres = Tre lol

Album numero tres gonna be a very dirty album, I imagine

Yep. Press release posted in the IC. Shit's real. My thoughts at this moment:

So, this is exciting. But also scary. Here's the thing: in theory, I'd always rather have more Green Day. Their relative lack of B-Sides has always bugged me, especially in light of them always having 30 or 40 songs to pick from for the albums. That we mostly only get live cuts is beyond infuriating, so this is good from that perspective. The bad is that these are not all going to be great albums. They're just not. You know why no one talks about The Beatles' White Album? Because half of it is completely forgettable. I've enjoyed everything Green Day has put out, but they're not immune to it: 21st Century Breakdown is at least 4 songs too long, and both the side-projects were only sporadically great. Three Green Day albums at once (probably) doesn't mean they've been three times as productive, just three times less selective about it. This is, of course, assuming these records are released in the form we assume. They may essentially be long EPs of 6 or 7 songs each. Or perhaps only one is a true Green Day record, and the other two are more akin to a Foxboro/Network thing, despite sharing the group name. No one knows for sure. I do want everything to get released in some form. All these songs, and anything else they've recorded/demoed but never released. Put it all out, and do it yesterday. But, do it as B-sides. Do it as an online only album. Make some of them free. Put them on compilations. Do something, but don't put them on all the 'proper' albums. To me, the joy of a great album is that it's a really focused piece of work, whittled down to the absolute best songs the group had. American Idiot has that quality, as do some others, and my feelings towards those records are warmer precisely because of their brevity. Green Day are incapable of writing anything less than good songs (Christian's Inferno aside), but there's something to be said for being picky and thinking about your broader legacy. No one wants them to be that band, who got so big nobody would say no or rein in their indulgences. No one wants Green Day to be U2. Make the albums perfect. There's plenty of room for the rest elsewhere.

I think Andres is so excited he is online two times...

Sorry I just had to.

Ninth.. tenth.. and eleventh studio album. What the actual fuck.

WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THE TITLES. We're getting three albums, that's all that matters.

I'm gonna be so fucking broke by the end of this year.

OMG so this is true? :runaround: :runaround: I. CAN'T. EVEN

They'll have to check our vital signs to make sure we're still alive.

The hospitals all around the world are soon to be filled with GD fans having cardiac arrests *breaking news health service shortages due to the announcement of three green day albums*

Green Day putting out an 'average' album? LOLOLOLOLOLOL. Won't ever happen.

Let's get #Trelogy trending!

I CAN'T EVEN. I HAVE LOST THE ABILITY TO EVEN.

This album seriously, unabatedly needs to have "cocktease" somewhere in the title. Right now Green Day's more confusing than the plot to Kingdom Hearts or like, the ending of 2001: A Space Odyssey, or...list some more things that are confusing!

This raises so many questions. I think it's awesome, because we know they've always had tons of material when making new albums. But this usually means they condense it to the best they think they have. Does this mean they're putting it all out there, or are they just consdencing less. Will the trilogy be tied together thematically, will there be a story arch, or are they just three standalone albums only tied together by the fact they're being releases so close together. I feel like the songs we've heard so far make it feel the latter point. They aren't really tied together, they seem like they're more individualistic songs compared to stuff from AI and 21CB. What if it's one album per member? Like, each one wrote the majority of the music? I don't know. There's so many possibilities here.

Not really...

I'm supposed to be packing to go to London tomorrow to see Frank Turner! I have been so consumed by excitement for these albums all hope of remembering everything I need for the weekend has been lost. I was already peaking on dangerously excited considering I'm off to see Frank, this being announced at the same time is seriously bad for my health.

Oh my god they get us every time. Seriously, greatest band on earth fucking. edit: I'm so excited I can't even type right

Mom: *walks in room* Are you okay? Me: Do I look o-fucking-kay?!

Now this line makes more sense than ever, "I'm SO FUCKING HAPPY I could cry!"

I love the wording of the note on the Idiot Club, "We are at the most Prolific and creative time in our lives. This is the best music we've ever written, and the songs just keep coming" That line says it all for me. Could they really be out doing themselves again??

imagine if Billie sings Uno, Mike signs Dos, and Tre sings Tre!

This is me right now; *refresh*read*repeat*

Air, I need air........ *inhales*

Meh, I'm not excited. To impress me, they'd have needed a fourth album called "Jason."

Fuck to the yeah.

because of the finger counting which we already have seen in the 4/4 video I think it IS a joke. In the video, I think, Billie only talked to Rob about something we don't know (maybe about guitar riffs, maybe about family, idk), and then because all the GD freaks went crazy with this finger counting, many fans did speculations about what they could have been talking about and so maybe Billie is just kidding and making fun of all us because -nobody knows nothing and everybody knows everything.

i'm confused.

Oh, Billie!
