Anybody here ever get to see what that account was all about? Some here suspected it was the working title for their last album, but they ultimately went with FOAM.

Which is exciting, because even a pretty good album like RevRad seemed to lack this amount of confidence 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDFan2019 Posted August 7, 2022 Author Share Posted August 7, 2022 Since they seem to be taking a lot of inspiration from American Idiot for this, what if it’s another rock opera? With characters based on Billie and his family and events based on things that happened in his childhood!!! I imagine this one to be another song about his dad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This album is more likely to be closer to RevRad than American Idiot. Which is fine if it's good, but I wouldn't get my hopes too high 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible the release date could change based on how good Warner thinks it is? Like I heard February was the time of year you released albums you had low confidence in (similar to how movie studios work). Fall would mean they expect it to do very well? Is there any truth to that? Green Day’s albums typically came out in Spring or Fall before (though I think Dookie was February but they never expected it to do so well). FOAM was the first February release since Dookie? I thought that was a sign they were dumping the record with low expectations. Or maybe those rules don’t apply anymore but awards season should still be a thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Billie's 1972 vest is a sign we're just days away from an announcement, I think we could get a single by the end of the month or September at the latest, and the album in early October 2 minutes ago, localinsomniac said: https://youtu.be/zjGw9qmonio LMFAO!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DookieLukie Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I wonder why he wore that on the back of his jacket. Nothing 1972 related happened at the concert. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly to hype people up and get casual Green Day fans interested. After seeing him wear that jacket, I'm positive we'll be getting something else by October. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that’s true I can’t imagine this album would still be six months away or more 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Christmas market is always a thing, but if they’d expect people to order vinyls for that, it would be about time to roll it out. Other than that, I think it would make sense to schedule album releases to go with a touring schedule since that’s where the money is coming from. Depending on whether or not they want to make a leg of a tour in the fall, the album might come out in the fall or at the start of the next year with a spring/summer tour following it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
