I was JUST reading his post. His post appears to be intentionally public so I'd be OK sharing his comments here. I won't mention his name though.

"Just listened to "Bang Bang". I can confirm it is AWESOME! I can also confirm the alleged clip making the rounds is indeed fake."

"It is an aggressive song; fast and loose, yet modern. At least to me it feels very modern. I think people expecting old Green Day will have to adjust their expectations a little bit. It is also a bit exotic, a hint of Peacemaker in there."

"Song length is 3:25."

"It is faster than anything on Warning. If I had to put it in an album I'd probably go with the trilogy. Probably, ¡DOS!; but it could very well be in AI or 21CB for sure. It feels like the right next step (evolution-wise) for the sound they've been developing."

"Very political. It is definitely a protest/social commentary song and a product of the times. Think American Idiot or 21CBreakdown in that regard."

 

Oh my god!! 

Is it just me or does this get anyone else a bit more hyped up for the single?

That is my call. I'm studying this shit, they need to let me do it :D that would be a dream. Maybe they will hire me as their intern :P

WMG looks for interns all the time, especially in the marking/promotions area. Go apply online! Make sure you have a good GPA and a few references

My cousin works for WMG Nashville promotions, I think directly under VP. 


idk what exactly they're doing but it looks like a lot of goofing off lol so I'm not surprised if they arent getting much done

That is an encouraging description. Thursday morning can't arrive soon enough.

That is a very exciting preview. Everything about that sounds great to me. 

I am going nuts over that, but the fact that he said he would most likely place it in the trilogy rather depresses me a bit.

Does anyone in Finland hope to hear it on the radio? I don't listen to the radio at all anymore, but it would be cool to hear it like that for old times' sake.

I sent email to Radio Rock the first day the news came, but still no reply. I always listen to that station at work, so I hope to hear Bang Bang soon! 😊 ❤

Not me! I think there's a way you can have a song musically tie closer to the trilogy than say Dookie and still have it kick ass. Certain songs on the trilogy were fantastic, and with a proper sound could have been really damn good. I still think there's a whole lot of promise for this. Especially based on what else has been said by that DJ that got to hear it.

Holy shit I haven't posted here in ages. But I am BEYOND pumped for new music! 

So happy that people are saying this will be a fast paced song and it may very well be political. It's about fucking time. We seriously need a band like Green Day coming out with a bad ass song commentating on the fucked up state of the world we live in... now more than ever.

I'm cautiously optimistic about BANG BANG.

Something about the way they're going about the release, how cool and genuinely different all of the promotional work feels.. I'm always nervous about the lead single, but I feel like Green Day got a lot out of their system with the trilogy and we're entering unknown territory.

I would too. While suspending people who tried posting it on GDC. Because I'm an asshole hypocrite.

Yeah, someone who works for the band "accidentally" leaks everything the day before the single comes out.
