madafaka Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 HERE WE GO AGAIN! Sadly I weren't able to recover my old account, so I had to create a new one. But here I am for the first time in a long time, ready for some Green Day hype It's weird that I rediscovered the joy of listening to Green Day just a couple of weeks ago. It's like some sort of spidey sense that I seem to have! It seems the only thing there is to ponder over right now is the title, which I don't think gives away anything except that it sounds nothing like any other Green Day song title that I can recall. For the album as a whole, I'm personally hoping for the loose feel of the trilogy, the classic album structure of their 90's stuff, the production quality of American Idiot and the musical style of Dookie with a little FBHT spiced into it. Yet again I'm setting myself up for disappointment, but I don't care. I know that I will have listened to "Bang Bang" at least a hundred times before we hit September. Quick question: Has their been such a short period of time between the announcement and release date of GD's lead singles in the past? I forget.

I don't want to have the slightest clue of what the song sounds like when I listen to it. And to people that will say "just don't listen it", ARE YOU CRAZY THERE'S A NEW 30 SECONDS GREEN DAY SONG AND I WON'T LISTEN IT?? Seriously though if it get's released like a day before I'm ok I will hold myself. I really hope they don't though. Don't think bands do that anymore. I concur! I don't think I've ever looked forward to hearing a song as much before, the title is so intriguing and we know absolutely NOTHING. I don't want to impact of finally getting to hear it diluted by any teasers or info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleIron1039 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Everyone else is cracking jokes about the new single and album, and I have nothing clever to say about either, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It said that Mike sings it because he wrote it, like Jar, but Billie sang Jar. No, it's someone else. This makes me think that I actually wouldn't mind if Mike had a few lines in one of the new songs. I absolutely love his part in American Eulogy.

Aside from sexual jokes about the song title and off-topic discussion about Jeff Matika's Twitter interaction with fans/significance, nothing. I'm hoping tomorrow's going to yield something, however vague. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGLWW Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I bet it's got a clip from Louie with the episode about overeating at two restaurants at the beginning, just like the Foxboro EP. Maybe it'll have a few gun references but don't think it's going to be political or sexual, for the most part lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did anyone do a breakdown on what the notes read in first few seconds of the video? I've been away for some time, also I fail at breaking down video's. Does anyone know anything about it?

XxXxXxXxX Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 If you look up "green day bang bang leaked" on Google 3 results were removed for copywrite. Warner bros must be watching it pretty closely 5 minutes ago, SaintJimmyvdBlom said: Did anyone do a breakdown on what the notes read in first few seconds of the video?

All I can make out is that, on the bottom sheet of paper, it appears to say "Do we walk", "walk" being the only word that I'm sure of. I'm trying to start/pause the video to get a good still of the other notes on top, but it's really difficult to do on an iPhone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me they are just a couple of loose words which may or may not be part of a song that may or may not be on 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be pretty funny. But I agree, I don't want a teaser and I certainly won't be listening to a leaked track if one becomes available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooklyn Baby Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 This probably makes me an asshole but I would definitely listen to a leaked version of this. I'm still going to buy it anyway, may as well listen and get the fun of winding people up on gdc over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian's Inferno! Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I wouldn't mind a teaser that showed like 10 seconds of the song just so I can find out whether it's gonna sound like the trilogy or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petros Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Do people seriously care about leaks? Oh please green day make money from the giant shows they play in which many people go to then because they illegally downloaded their albums. Come on people...

I want to listen to the best quality version, that I know is the actual song, the first time I listen to it. The lead single will be the only one I listen to digitally/on radio first, the rest of the album I'd like to wait until I have a physical copy in my hands. That's the listening experience I really want. I'm also not a fan of illegal downloading/leaks as it takes money away from not only the band, but many others who work behind the scenes and perhaps don't earn as much, as well as just being against my principles. But my main reason is for me and my listening pleasure, cos I'm a selfish bastard Maybe the song is about Basil Brush's cousin Mortimer. He had the catchphrase 'Bang Bang'.
