Or maybe Billie is really good at banging, so he went will all caps.

Feel free to make your sexual parody/cover of the song (aside from the one you posted on Twitter). I think Fuck Time is a thing of the past. Mike did not repost that Peacemaker gun-and-rose artwork randomly. It might point to the song being rather fast-paced like Peacemaker.

I do hope we get a teaser though. Not only for my sanity, but to calm everyone down on here.

Like we got for KYE? I wanted that too but I don't see it happening...

I'm going to be the pedantic jerk and say it's BANG BANG, like an explosion. The all-caps makes it more likely this song is about gun violence/bombings rather than any sexual innuendo.

Yeah they got out all the sexual tension they could have with the trilogy

We could one as part of a bigger announcement on Friday, but that's just speculation at this point. Part of me just wants to be able to hear the song in its entirety the first time instead of getting a teaser.

I agree. I think I'd rather get the full song rather than some dinky teaser. It's only 9 days :P

I guess the full announcement will come with the single on the 11th. It makes more sense to me since the single itself would already be a teaser for the full record...

And I want to hear it on its entirety too! For the trilogy I heard the live recordings from the secret shows so I wasn't so surprised when the studio record came out

The title "BANG BANG" sounds cool and it suggests along with the photoshoot that it can definitely have a bit hardcore/crossover influence in it. Very excited for the new album and a new era to begin!

I hope the second single is going to be BOOM BOOM POW. Not because I would approve but because your reactions would be hilarious 😄

I kind of hope they don't release a teaser so I'll be surprised when the song comes out, but it would be nice to be reassured that it sounds different from the trilogy. :D

What if we are getting another concept album and each song title is an onomatopoeia?

Why do any of you bother getting worked up about what Green Day's touring backup piano guy does on Twitter? I mean, really. He's almost as insignificant as everyone who tweets at him.

If we are going to talk about insignificant back up members, I'd like to say that Jeff's snark is the best. He's not a member of Green Day, so he has the freedom to poke fun at the absolute crazies who harass him on the regular.

I wasn't gonna say anymore on this but since you outright inferred that I'm insignificant, I think it's important that I do.

Firstly:

This was Jeff's tweet - "People all be like crazy and shit. #bangbang"

So, I'd been reading posts here on GDC speculating that Bang Bang could be about recent events in the US and or gun violence. So when I saw Jeff's  tweet, I wondered if he was maybe hinting as to what the song was about. The tweet was pretty vague and the #bangbang on the end made it seem a little more plausible. It's hardly an unreasonable assumption. When I replied, I acknowledged that I could be misinterpreting and simply asked is this a hint about the song or a statement on the fan's excitement. I was unaware of his reputation for 'messing' with fans or that he's expressed displeasure over being bombarded with Green Day related questions. I have my own thoughts on that, but it's besides the point.

Secondly: 

I've been a Green Day fan for a long ass time and I'm just re-entering the fan community. I'm not one of the 'absolute crazies' that you mentioned and even if I were, people can use their twitter handle however they goddamn please. Just because they behave differently to you online, doesn't make name-calling okay. And I'm not insignificant either. Reducing other fans that you don't agree with as insignificant is jarringly elitist and just plain rude. The name of this forum is Green Day Community for a reason. Maybe try to remember that before you post.

Have a nice day!

I remember the time he tweeted something about one of HIS projects and all people were asking him was Green Day. I would be annoyed too. Some people really are crazy as fuck.

Alright... everyone chill out.

@Brooklyn Baby Quit agitating and egging people on. Plus, you're about as off-topic as anyone else here so don't complain about others being off-topic.

 

For continued discussion on touring members, such as Jeff, please use this thread (which has been renamed to not offend anyone).

This is also off topic but some of you guys are unnecessarily mean. Come on, we're a family. Be nice :) 

Also Bang Bang whoooo!

I was about to sass but then I realized Matt's actually a mod now so ugh, fine.

Anyway yes, I'm ready to get back to Bang Bang-ing.

eta: Think of all the disgusting puns single Green Day fans are going to make to flirt with each other now.

Another thing to think about. They were obviously trying to keep bang bang somewhat of a secret. Which means they might be doing they alw with theb our. we could get your dates any day unexpectedly
