The Network is back!

Bingo. Money Money 2020 Part II isn’t going to deviate from the Network formula. Short, simple songs with the classic Network sound. Not only does The Ultimate Test not sound like Billie or Mike (especially when you listen to the bridge), it’s too long and it’s too complex. It doesn’t fit in at all. 

So, sadly mundane things in life like sleeping got in the way and now I have like 10 pages to catch up on so I have skimmed and apologise if I missed something but got to revisit this from @Todd.  I get your point but there is another band some of us here like who have, in the past done long and complex songs.  It seems the general consensus overnight is that TUT is not the Network but could it be Green Day (look them up, you might like them 😉).  We know GD said they had a load of songs which didn’t fit FOAM so if that’s The Network new material then I guess there could be new GD material?  Did anything happen bar the countdown thing which was posted and removed?  The beginning of that has a  David Bowie vibe to me but the end could sound like GD or the Network but it’s so short it’s impossible to tell.  
Also, is nobody mentioning the Warner Brothers post, I assume we can take that as confirmation GD re-signed with Warner’s?

Cha-chaaaa. Suppose so. Wouldn't think they'd mention them, and even as @greenday, otherwise.

Just listened to TUT one more time and now it sounds totally fake to me. Vocals sound less and less like Billie with every listen and the lack of synths seems strange for a Network song. On the other hand, would anyone thought that Father of all was a Green Day song if it was leaked like this one with no confirmation?

[Elxufinnishidiot]

So many new pages! So both TUT and the count down thing are fake?

[localinsomniac]

Sorry I faked Tickets To My Downfall

[Little Boy Named Booze]

So are we putting TUT in a blender and drinking it or what?

[Bakabanas]

Sorry guys, but I faked American Idiot. Took hella lot of an effort, but it's time for the truth to come out.

I faked Dookie. I also made Cigarettes and Valentines, but Green Day stole it from me and The Network stole it from them. 

And what I heard is that The Network Lost the album themselves, so they started to write Money Money 2020. Yes this is all legit 100 percent real information.

I don't believe you. Dookie is almost impossible to fake. However, I REALLY faked American Idiot, based on my own life experience events. It took TREMENDOUS effort to fake all the guitars, videos with Billie and the band, and of course the vocals. 

At the end of faking Whatsername, I was on the verge of giving up, but I thought - what a prank that would be - wiped off my tears (I also used that to fake video of Billie crying to finishing recording American Idiot), and finished my fake.

I'm sorry guys

I honestly think they are real. This is a hill I'm willing to die on.

The Ultimate Test is the Still Breathing of the Network.

I think Fink and Van Gogh are in a relationship and they split up during that 17 year gap.

Will the spark in the night reignite. -that is the ultimate test.

Did you cry after finishing it?

Your answer will determine if you are telling the truth.

Just gimme the truth.

Also, what happened with Songs for Buttholes?

I’m right there with you comrade. Until there is proof that TUT was faked, we can go down together, I’m riding this to the end.

I did. Songs for Buttholes was never meant to leak publicly. It was a very well thought out prank.

I also made Bratwurst and Fuck These People.

[vladiclas]

For me it´s very clear.

 

The ultimate test It´s Billie Joe singing.

 

I am absolutely sure.

So am I. Even if Tom Jones was singing, it’d still sound like a Green Day song, instrumentally. Moreover, there’s the IG post.

I think I am with you guys. I never got the Mootik thing, I couldn’t see how anyone thought it was real, I thought that thing with the choir was bloody awful, not even in tune but just backed off.  This time is sounds so Green Day to me I just can’t believe it’s fake, I love it regardless of who it is, well unless it’s one of the Gallagher’s 😂😂

I literally thought Spotify uploaded the wrong song under Green Day’s name when I clicked on it and listened to it for the first time.

Yay! And as for your theory that it’s a Green Day song, I think it very well could have been one of the extra seven, but they added some minor elements to make it fit more with The Network material they then decided to make. That’s why Billie can now say “I don’t know who this is” (ie, it’s not Green Day) “and we are not The Network” (it’s The Network, not GD).

To put it another way, if a hoax, it would have been easier to sell this fake as a Green Day song wouldn’t it? But they claim it is a Network song even though it is not the typical sound but for some very minor bits.  Bigger claim if you’re a fake. Why would they do that? And how would they know a big Network announcement would drop in October like it did?

I am super confused again and gave up all hope of keeping up with this thread. Can I get a TLDR version of why we think this stuff is fake now?

Yeah I couldn’t tell if the Panicland snippets were or weren’t legit and later when the whole songs came out, they weren’t as convincing. This is.

The same account posted another two short videos, one of them was a weird countdown song, the other was a vid of john Roecker (we don’t know if previously released, but old footage). These were both quickly taken down. Other than that, it’s just speculation based on “bUt i dOn’T tHinK iT sOuNdS lIkE bIlLiE”
