And like I said, in that latest TikTok, they finally addressed the new album directly in the description, that they have been working on it in the middle of the tour. And now we're heading into the holiday season, Thanksgiving is a week from this Thursday!!!!! I can see them posting a few more teasers in the next month or so, because December 19th will be the 1 year anniversary of the first teaser. At midnight on New Year's, I could see them posting a video of the 1972 ball drop, pretty clever, eh? Then give it maybe a week or 2 after the Nimrod release, the floodgates could be opened, giving us everything we need to know about 1972!!! Single in February perhaps?

I love your optimism. Your deffo a 'the glass is half full' person. It's infectious. After two major highs with Dookie & AI, is 1972 the next big step up to world domination, again.?

Hard to believe. Could Jason actually have a bigger head than Billie?

AI Used these too - they’ve def learned a lesson with all of the FOA amp sims

It‘s not easy to replace a frontman. Thats why I think we will never see Linkin Park again. They try some things in the studio but thats it. Same with Green Day. They‘re friends for so long and even their families. You can‘t replace any of them and I dont want it.

I have to admit being from the UK, I'd never heard of E-40. Good for you though Mike! I can imagine it was a tough couple of hours, drinking all that wine! 🤣

I think it's just an old photo

Aargh, why are we even having this convo, it breaks my heart to think of it. 🥹🥹 I don’t see GD continuing without any of the three, just can’t imagine it. If something happened to one of them I don’t think the other two would carry on. The only thing I could see would be Billie Joe going solo after a while but I sincerely hope they keep going as long as they enjoy it.

I don't expect anything big from this album honestly. They're not as ambitious as they used to be , like with AI & 21stCBD. Now Billie just throws out whatever the hell comes to his mind. With recent tracks like pollyana and holy Toledo ,we can see what direction they're going with this one. Yeah it's gona suck donkey balls

Oh my lord chill out! I just meant that they tried to use a bunch of amp sims and left the classic Green Day sound Im quite aware of how to make music as well, no reason to go producer snob on someone - that’s a fantastic way to get people to ignore your point

🤣 nice

What lesson? Are people still actually reassessing quality of software amps in 2022? Or due to ignorance misunderstanding software amps with bad guitar sounds in general? Jesus, I'm amazed that there's still so much misapprehension about this topic.. Or were you aluding that FOAM didn't sell well because they used software amps? 😳 Because that's even more bizzare, and just proves how in most cases people don't even have a clue about this stuff and are biased by good old "analog is better" crap. There are no rules, there's no better option. It all depends on a situation, but mostly on experience in music and engineering of person who is recording /producing. Like I always say, put on a blindfold and I'll gladly A B you couple of different amp and software amp sounds and you won't ever know the difference.

There was that one video Billie posted back in 2020 where he said, “Well Father of MoFo’s, looks like we just blew up an amp.”

Like when Green Day met a girl named Lady Cobra and delivered FIRE on all cylinders, oh yeah!

Looks like we get the 21stCB/RevRad guitar tone back, could be Billie's recording amps Park New and Park Saul

Not GD related but Kevin posted this

Dos is 10 years old today (not 20 as Magnet Magazine would have you believe )

I still can't get over how Van Halen, Journey and Queen replaced their frontmen but no, Green Day won't continue as Green Day without all three.

Ok, let's say by some miracle you find a Mike2 and a Tre2. What about Billie Joe? He's one hell of a songwriter, churns out awesome songs time and time again, sings and is one amazing guitarist. But that's not all. Seeing Billie Joe live on stage is something else. I remember at Milton Keynes, the AI tour '05, 65k people, and he is in total control. The perfect showman. Your just totally mesmerized as he runs round the stage, lifting his hands like a conductor and you respond. So where the fuck are yer gonna find a Billie Joe2? Not on this fuckin planet.

Jason's top hat completes Billie's outfit

This was posted to Bill's IG with "RAK Studios" as the location

Cherry spice and everything nice wasn't made for only girls I love their style on American Idiot and also on Walking Contradiction clip, especially Billie. That beard is quite a charm.

When Green Day and legendary rap comes together I'm always happy! Cameoing in an E-40 video Mike has one upped Billie

I think this might be the first time they addressed the new album directly instead of a cryptic studio teaser. Not sure why they didn't put the #1972 hashtag in this latest Tiktok though

Their new TikTok mentions how busy they have been with recording shows, we just need to be patient.

I didn’t know I did until you posted!

I want a green day christmas theme pj set

Honestly I'd sell my soul for a Green Day leather jacket.

Denim jacket looks cool but 100 $ 😨

I wish they had it but with other albums (Kerplunk is my second least favorite GD album). $70 is way too expensive, but if they had this with other album designs, I'd totally put it on my xmas list.

I own 15% of their company. I'm a silent investor.

These prices are ridiculous for what is essentially free brand advertisement. $70 for a grey pullover hoodie? That’s more than the Nimrod merch was.

If that were the case, they probably would’ve said it already, “Hey we’ve got the 1994-2001 BBC sessions plus 6 new songs, out on December 10th!”
