Even Mike's bass is black and white. I think it would be neat if the video in it's entirety wasn't black and white filmed, but their instruments, clothes and maybe even their surroundings being black / grey / white :D

I expect this will be its own thread once they announce tour dates, but is anyone planning on doing the whole tour?

It already kinda is a thread :) It shouldn't be far behind from this one. The "rehearsing" one.

Oh, to be rich...

Lets keep this kind of stuff out of here. There's already a shitload of commentary, we don't need the off-topic stuff adding to it.

How about like a basket case video, where it was filmed in black and white and it was colorized. Only this time only some of it is colorized:D

My only real hope is that they're finally in an eternal cycle of success, decline, flop, success, decline, flop and they're coming back around to the success part of the cycle.

He has had that bass since AI got released, I don't think it is black and white especially for the new album haha

Even though I often like the so-called flops, this is my exact same theory!

Yeah I know, it's just something I noticed after remembering the talk about the black and white theme for the new album :D

And let's not forget Billie's new sparkly sunburst Les Paul

Hence why I said it. Warning is still such a brilliant album.

I'm curious to see if Billie's songwriting on 12 is at all influenced by his sobriety... Idk, might be a dumb question. Yesterday I pulled out my copy of the Rolling Stone interview with him following his time in rehab and the idea just crossed my mind.

Just heard the new Green Day song sounds like Dookie and Kerplunk era songs. Don’t toy with my emotions! This better be legit!

Has anyone speculated about the 'one week' thing relating to the Olympics? It does correspond to the exact prophesied day!

Naïve hopefulness here:dance:

Only because I am not reading this whole thread and I am sure it has been caught up on but was just curious if we figured out that "Bang Bang" is from the lyrics of Holiday on the interlude "rap" in Holiday when Billie says "BANG BANG goes the broken glass and; Kill all the fags that don't agree;

Just wondering if it's a cue that we might be getting an American Idiot like album?  I wouldn't mind.  Happy with what comes. I am never let down by GD since 94 

There's no information on what's the song about.

I said something about this a while ago on Reddit. "History is repeating itself". Let's hope.

Hey guys!!!

Love coming back home to GDC.

Only because I am not reading this whole thread and I am sure it has been caught up on but was just curious if we figured out that "Bang Bang" is from the lyrics of Holiday on the interlude "rap" in Holiday when Billie says "BANG BANG goes the broken glass and; Kill all the fags that don't agree; Trials by fire setting fire Is not a way that's meant for me
Just cause
Just cause
Because we're outlaws yeah!

 

Just wondering if it's a cue that we might be getting an American Idiot like album?  I wouldn't mind.  Happy with what comes. I am never let down by GD since 94 and don't count on starting now.


I posted this as "LevelMined" in the GDA story.  That is my "Disqus" avatar.

Hope all my old friends from here are well!

 

 

here we see straw-grasping in it's rawest form

You think "Bang Bang" is grasping straws?

That he didn't come up with that because of the lyric in Holiday?   It's possible that he is using a phrase he likes, as he is known to use a lyrical phrase more than once but I don't think it's grasping at straws at all.

Go figure out how many songs you know that have the phrase "bang bang" in them.  Now that you found one, go find a single band that has used the phrase "bang bang" twice in two different songs.

It might be grasping to say anything about the album because of it, if that's what you're on about but just the lyric itself, i would say is not only possibly a throw to Holiday but almost definitely. 

I will say that I want you to be right.  I'm hoping you are right.  I would love what they described, a fast punk song, but with a bit more musicality and a social link.  Your idea would absolutely fit that bill.  I like the way you think.
