Thanks for the intel. Always appreciate it.

 

What other artists release singles 5 months before the album?

A lot of times only artists who push the album back

 

FOB, Blink 2 recent examples and even blink wasn’t 5

I don’t think it is I can almost guarantee they don’t like it but don’t have a choice. That’s why Billie hinted that they are almost done with Warners and will then be out and free to do things their way. They have the resources now and at nearly 50 they don’t want to see 4 year gaps between releases. They have a lot of music they want to make and they keep promising more but are hamstrung by their label at this point. 

Maybe, but we really don't know the nature of their relationship with Warner. Plus they just signed with Crush, and isn't Crush affiliated with Warner? I'm curious: who would handle their massive tours without the record label's support?

It might be in Warner Bros fashion, as is the current fashion in general. He did say after fulfilling the contract that music would come out more regularly 

I remember months ago @LaughingClock mentioned that Billie wanted to start releasing more music more frequently. This lines up.

@Christian's Inferno! Yep, and Weezer is also with Crush Management, plus Pacific Daydream was produced by Butch Walker. So, it's not at all impossible. Just, as someone pointed out, not in "Green Day typical fashion".

If what @TJChrobo is saying were true, I don’t think the guys would be teasing us on Instagram this early. 

I do have to say, that was confusing to me. So was the news of a single next week. Idk what to make of it all tbh

Because...? You do realise it's a leap of faith to assume their IG posts are a direct album tease and not just them goofing around, right?

I don't think that's the guys teasing us. I think it's just the guys having fun, possibly after finishing recording the album

Not the same thing. Teal album is a covers album that nobody knew about but if you wanna include Teal album, yeah there's a 7 month gap between the release of Africa and the Teal album

What if we JUST get a single next week (maybe not even on the next album.) And then in September ANOTHER single with an album announcement.

Conflicts with other insiders. I wonder what @LaughingClock thinks about this.

@TJChrobo sounds legit to me. Just my gut feeling. He’s not being mysterious or cryptic. Just straightforward. I believe you TJ. And even though I would like it to be sooner, I’m glad to have this information.

What if I don't wake up tomorrow with 10 pages to catch up.

@LaughingClock has not said that he has definite info on the release schedule. He’s guessing based on past patterns. Matt has really only said that the album has been recorded but has not given a definite time schedule. I think @TJChrobo information makes sense because the phrase “any time soon” stuck with me. I don’t think management would say that if the single was coming out even in August. August is soon.

This is so strange to me. Hype about the single should lead right to hype about the album. It makes no sense, but you’re right it happens a lot.

I think for how quickly information comes and goes now, the labels want to prolong the conversation as long as possible so by the time the album comes out, some random non-megafan will be like “oh yeah I heard something about that” and buy songs or the album

I mean... he can’t. He wasn’t there, I was. Only time will confirm. 

I don’t mean this in a rude way, just factually.

Is that a good time for awards or is there some other marketing reason for it?

The single would be eligible for 2020 Grammys if released in September I think? Not positive.

But who’s to say he and Billie don’t text and/or Skype/FaceTime?
