I just hope this doesn't mean I'll now have to hear about hockey for 2 years. A theme song is cool, but I hope it stops with that, because I'd rather get kicked in the balls than have to look at sports related stuff.

Since this song is going to be a theme song for NBC broadcasts, do you think it's going to be released only for that purpose or is it on the upcoming album?

It’s been confirmed that it’s going to be on Father of All...

"The song, ”Ready, Fire, Aim” isn’t custom-made for the NHL and will be on Green Day’s next album, though it’s likely a matter of time until Green Day or another band follows what Hank Williams and later Carrie Underwood did for the NFL."

It will be on the album.

Looks like we won't have to wait until Friday to hear new tracks before the album is released as well.  The NBC article states that new singles from their album will be released on ”Wednesday Night Hockey.”  Some good cross-promotion.

That's okay and easy enough to avoid except for the "performances appearances other collabs" part. Does hockey has something like an equivalent of the Superbowl half-time show?

Think it’s still a week Wednesday though, not two days time.

The All-Star Game on January 20th or the Stanley Cup Finals during June.

So how much fucking money are they making with this two year deal? This is huge. It supports my theory that they are seriously cashing in to feed the kitty for their independent years when they can do whatever the fuck they want. Good for them.

Maybe you're right but I'm afraid by the time the cool independent years come everyone will be fed up with them.

My personal theory is that they're burning bridges and cashing in so they can go full out Green Day in the years to come. 

Divide the fan base with Father Of All's vocal filters; re-use AI art; sound more poppy etc; FOAM is actually a middle finger to WB;


To me it's like "career suicide"* so they don't have to adhere to any foundations after FOAM, and start completely from scratch. 

Plus with hopes for Magnum Opus, I think either the boys are going all out or just playing the cards they have and we're reading waaaay too much into it all. 

 



*Career suicide meaning making the album and everything as controversial as possible for us deep fans

I like this theory, but can't really believe it. The simplest explanation is usually correct and that's just that they're cashing in because why not. There's no Magnum Opus (at least according to someone who says he talked to billie yesterday) and who knows what's coming in the future. Maybe they just want to fund their coke use. But I really like what you say about foam. Hope you're right.

On another note, I listened to the clip: it's not possible to make any conclusion from it, but anyway... It seems too poppy/bubblegummy for my taste but like Foam, it has a more lively sound than the trilogy, so that's good and I really dig the wail-y instrumental bit. I rate 3.6

I’ve a feeling there is going to be a lot of handclaps on this record 

There was a lot on the Longshot record.
