But I don't like that. It sounds so forced. I will be really dissapointed if there will be songs on the album that talk about the elections or "fuck trump" and shit that every band can come up with.

I think he is creative enough to where it wont sound forced. Look at American Idiot(right there next to Dookie on my favorite albums of all time).  That was a master piece of politically charged creativity.  America is much different now than it was then, not even necessarily Trump.  Violence and social inequality are more prevalent today than they were then.  The fear that even in a country such as the United States, France, or the UK you might not make it home.  Brexit and other social issues as well.

It's a well known fact that Steven Seagull doesn't like AI. There's no point arguing that with him. It's a waste of time

You're new to the forum and don't know about my opinion on AI so I'll let you enjoy it and back away :P

this bands are mostly out of sumerian records, or sony .. but GD is warner .. im sure there will be some sort of detail about the album be coming even sooner

I'm sure there are more examples, bands that release random singles and ended up releasing an album with the single..

But yeah, I'm sure Green Day is not going to do that.

I just checked the Warner Brothers website and the announcement about the single is not on their news page, I don't think they were quite ready for this to b e out of the bag yet. I hope Billie Joe had permission to post that Instagram last night or he's in big trouble...

Why would he be in trouble?

If he wasn't supposed to announce it yet?

But does GD not get to choose when they announce it?

The church is quite prominent in Billies Instagram post which they have oviously done deliberately. Therefore, the song (or even the album) might cover religion, terrorism, etc.

For some reason I can hear the chorus sounding a lot like Novacaine. I hope not, but it's what's stuck in my head

They've already done that with Lazy Bones. I doubt they will go with Novacaine, maybe Letterbomb.

I hope so. I absolutely love Letterbomb. So energetic, and great lyrics too.

No, the title Bang Bang alone makes me think that it will be faster and punchier than Novacaine.

Yeah, I guess Lazy Bones does sound like it. Hadn't really recognized that.

And yeah most likely, but it just really works with bang bang in the chorus

I can tell you that it was indeed planned.

If anything, the post Billie made on instagram was written, or at least checked, by Warner. 
Sounds a tad impersonal.
