Potential Theme For Album 15?


GDFan2019

Recommended Posts

And yes, I may get blasted for speculating about this so early but hear me out. The Oakland A’s announced they’re officially leaving Oakland after this season, moving to a temporary home in Sacramento for the 2025-27 seasons before they officially move to Las Vegas in 2028, so that got me thinking. 2028 will most definitely be the year we get Green Day’s Album 15!!! I know Billie is most likely devastated about losing the A’s so could Album 15 be a tribute to them? What if the album is called “Rooted in Oakland”?

I really didn't mean for this to be a full on album speculation, but given the A's situation in Oakland, it's a fun concept to think about

I think I’ll enjoy it more now that the idea of an album about the A’s has been floated as an actual thing. 

I mean, not an album directly about the A’s, but more like a reference to them. “Rooted in Oakland” was their slogan. And the band is based in Oakland, so they’re “Rooted in Oakland” themselves

It could be dedicated to them, but I wouldn't want all the lyrics to focus on this.  It would be like that one Stephen King book where he got off on a baseball tangent that went on for 400+ pages and I just threw the book away, lol.   

I think Green Day are very conscious of the albums people don't like and that they won't be returning to a Trilogy or Foam vibe ever again, although they will still experiment in a song or two.   They're next album.....

Album 14 speculation was the longest stretch of time in my life. Every day anticipating some sort of announcement which just led to disappointment. I remember feeling so certain that an album announcement was coming when I saw that crytic tik tok post last Easter with all those emojis that were supposedly hinting at the song types on the new album. Fun times... But yea I agree with @GDFan2019 that the next album will come out in the next presidential election year.

Billie will do some more complex, metal-ish guitar playing like on the earlier Green Day material, even having one song on the album labeled as a Condom song.    Have Raj, Sean and with special permission from the family, have Jason Andrew Relva appear in some capacity on the song from older material pulled from the archives.     Album 15 will be a very hard rock sounding record, but with 3 big ballads and one of the them - The Barricade Of Fixed Nightmares.  It's 6 minutes longs and while a sequel to Broken Dreams, it has 3 different sections which kind of connect the Idiot character to Saviors and the new album.     The handclapping is back, but done so well by the new O'Tool guy that you all love it and want more.

Who are the special guests? I need some very fucking stupid (just kidding lol) combinations. Like Green Day ft. Iggy Pop or something- oh wait, Skull Ring did happen. How about Green Day ft. Alice in Chains in your concept?

Courtney Love, Dave Grohl and Paul McCartney....and I was going to fight the Alice in Chains thing, but okay.  They're in too.

You didn't have to add AiC, I was only saying that because I wanted to list a random band or musician. Either way, cool choices.

Well yeah, that one could be possible. I thought you were suggesting an album. Hey you could be rjfht but no offense, I’m rooting against ya. lol. I’ll just feel bad for Brad Pitt in Moneyball. 😂

Oh no. Please no, I'm not mentally ready for a speculation thread again.

Perhaps some booze would help.   1 shot for every insane, rambling highly speculative post.  Mmmm....maybe half a shot.   We're about to go hard, lol.

Yeah. I believe by 2028 we will get our precious chance to discuss.

Less relevant to the thread, but moving long established sports teams to entirely different cities or even states for financial gain is the most US thing ever. 

Europeans and South Americans would burn down the entire city before they allowed their teams to move.
