Green Day will be the focus of 1973.

It bothers me that of all the people that always ask Billie stuff in social media, he choses to answer something that would bring even more doubts and concerns among the fans. We are one year without any clue from a project that the band decided to share with all of us in 2021, and then, after 12 months of silence and people wondering what happened, he just says that the thing is dead... Cmon Green Day sometimes is their worst enemy... Terrible mkt, not a single interation on social media and random answers confusing everybody... Why?

@GDFan2019 on suicide watch

Because it's nonsense that shouldn't get attention. The album is coming in 2024 and the mods have been hinting at a side project coming soon. Doesn't sound like a breakup to me

And here we are again…

We don't have any inside info about the band, don't worry! I'm sure that's nonsense. Nothing about the post indicates the band breaking up, at worst it indicates they scrapped an album. Could also be something less dramatic (eg they've just changed the name) and BJA is messing with us.

From Billie's Instagram story

Someone on that Reddit thread says they have a source from the band that this coming album will be their last. Man that would be sad.

1972 being dead makes sense. It seems like it started as one thing and it evolved into another and it won't be called 1972 (which I thought we knew). I'm not buying into the whole this is their last album until I hear it come from the band themselves. Also... the Blink opinions in this thread I do agree though that Edging isn't great. It was fun song live, but I haven't listened to it since its release.

That’s why we have social media, Billie looking cute driving some of his pack about 😂😂❤️❤️

1972 is deceased https://www.reddit.com/r/greenday/comments/14ujgjo/bja_1972_is_dead/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=2

How are they supposed to debunk that? Like, even if the band was planning on breaking up, how likely is it that any of the mods would even know that?

It‘s just impatience talking. We’ve been waiting for this thing since 2021!!! All baseless claims just so they have something to talk about in this thread!!! Same as the baseless claims about Billie’s alleged vocal cord surgery!!!

Whyyyy is he so pwetty 🥺

Posted by Jason in the Discord thread: "It was confirmed long ago (January I think) that it wasn’t going to be called 1972, which is why many months ago this thread was renamed from 1972 discussion to album 14 discussion. Even as recently as May the album still didn’t have a title - “nothing has stuck” was what I was told." https://discord.com/channels/252988599690199041/975433938539544637

I think it was just some random troll being a dick!!! Notice how it got 10 downvotes!!! I'm pretty sure @Sanity Loan or @pacejunkie punk could debunk that

thank GOD, that sounds so cringe

Things get canned, its not necessarily a bad thing… Would there have been an American Idiot, if there was the Cigarettes and Valentines album ?

Sanity at last, thank you.

Cropped it for a close up

Look I already have two weddings and a visitor from Australia organised next year, and I need to book holidays so I NEED tour dates. Rock stars 🙄🙄😂😂😂

The teasing stopped because they finished recording. Nothing has been scrapped… the album is done.

Wow, more leaks. How bad is the security on their hds?

From @hasitleaked: "I’ve been sent Green Day studio material this weekend all marked 2023. Whoever claims these are from the upcoming album is wrong. They might float around soon and all I can say is that they are rehashed, old stuff. I checked with the label. @GreenDay"

No it wasn't.

Wouldn't hate it if they revisited the Jesus Christ Supermarket concept. I mean for the artwork alone

I feel we’re partly responsible for killing off 1972. 🔪 Maybe ‘72 was just the friends we made along the way! 🤗

The fact that any of the Mods haven’t debunked that breaking up rumor just scares me 😟

Viva la 1972 and whatnot

If this is their last album then all that talk about staying in this band until they are dead meant nothing….I highly doubt that’s true why would they have this be their final album….if any insiders can debunk this please do we will have 300 pages worth of breakup speculation

'1972 is dead' is the album's name. No this is not the last album. Even if Billie says it, The Reverend Strychnine Twitch doesn't believe it.

Who's gonna be our Saviors?

LOL but we were already knew about the #Not1972 but we know an album is still coming!!!

California was by far their best album since take off your pants and jacket in my opinion. I didn‘t like their latest single and Tom is terrible live tbh…. but „1972“ only confirms its not the album title like mentioned before here. We‘ll see whats gonna happen in the next few months

That's worse though. Releasing the single like a year before you release the album. Not to mention that blink song is shit. Like their worst single

1972 Is Dead could be a lyric. Or how about MCR with The Black Parade Is Dead? Could be something like that. So Billie didn't say anything else after that?

Why are we assuming that this means anything? This doesn't mean anything has been scrapped. This doesn't mean the album has been delayed. This can really just mean the album/project used to be called 1972 but no longer is. Do you guys actually think we'd get a bunch of teasers, then a year of silence and then Billie would just reply to a comment saying "Yeah the album's been scrapped, we're not releasing anything"

Wow, this thread has reached new levels of shit. Unbelievable.

That’s a lot of assumed information you’ve got there. 1972 the title of a docudrama project that was scrapped? Who ever said that?

Do you have a screenshot of this comment? Can't find it

I certainly wasn’t laughing , I would be gutted and very surprised!

I‘ve said that a couple of times also once in this forum. Everyone was laughing at me.

Nothing has stuck could very well lead to an untitled/self titled record. I think we're 2 months and some change away from the lead single. September single in route.

We should probably change the title of this thread back to “Album 14 Speculation Thread”

Same, and the amount of dross you need to get through to see what you are actually there for!

Literally done, but they aren’t touring until next year so it makes sense to put them together right?

didn't he said in a few years? We talked about it in the podcast thread.

The wait has been so long it's getting to the point that I forget GD are even working on new music. Honestly, I don't care if I have to wait, but we could've done without the teasing then. I understand that maybe they figured the album or whatever they were working on would be ready sooner than they thought, but I'm really tired of bands announcing new projects and then just sitting on them (looking at you blink-182). If it's not close to being done, don't say anything then. I'd rather be surprised and have a firm release date to give me something to look forward to. This long game of will they won't they is really tiring. Luckily, I have other albums to look forward to this year as GD fades to the back of my memory,

What the hell is Threads and why did I thought Billie has posted in a thread on GDC this morning?
