Beerjeezus Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 One thing that's giving me a little hope for this album is the rumor that they're going independent later on. It wouldn't make a lot of sense to go out of their way to cater to a mainstream audience with a manufactured pop album and then say fuck it we changed our mind let's go indie. If the goal of this project was to be pop radio friendly, it would make no sense to make a 180 degree turn afterwards, especially in case it's commercially successful.

It would be funny if they had a big commercial hit when they weren’t meaning to 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebahar Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 My feeling is that Green Day getting another commercial relies heavily on how radio stations treat their new music. Back when Still Breathing first came out, it was #1 for at least month I believe. It was big, even my friends who aren’t big Green Day fans knew of its existence through radio. With that being said, I never hear it anymore. I listen to an alternative radio station that plays Dookie/AI stuff a lot, but still Breathing comes once in a blue moon. Yet, I still hear Thunder by Imagine dragons come on every hour and that song is 2 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have mentioned, glitter, sugar and spice, and everything nice implies a poppy song. For whatever reason, it makes me think about "Oh Love" and its horrific video 😖 exactly my thought, here is hope for more "bang bang" and less "oh love" 😐 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They recorded Hitchin' a ride in a sort of theatre for burlesque, so...Who knows, they're Green Day, what we've learned is that we can expect everything and it's contrary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty confident that any musician creates an album with the anticipation that it will be a commercial success. I would imagine the record companies do forecasts. So yes there is probably some idea of what the commercial success will be. The forecast may be off but I'm pretty sure the forecast exists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity Loan Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 If the name of the song I've been told about happens to be true, and yesterday was really a music video shoot at the Madonna Inn, we're in for a treat 😂 And no, it's not "Bratwurst" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerjeezus Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 We should note that the rumored release date, September 19, is just a day before Area 51 is to be stormed. It's meant to be a soundtrack for freeing our alien comrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross_19 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Okay I've been back from Leeds Festival 48 hours and still haven't finished catching up on life... but GDC is now caught up on! Such great news that we seem to be very close to things kicking off... I think we are all ready for it. That photo shoot / video shoot is very interesting. I do wonder what the song name is you've been told Matt.. and what makes it sound like a "treat" when considering the location of yesterday's shoot. I suppose we'll find out soon! While at the festival I had visions of standing there next year with Green Day performing to 70,000 people... please let it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
