It could simply be the name of one of the songs and the album name has yet to be revealed. Or maybe it's the working title and is subject to change before the release.

KarlAuerE12thSt Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I kinda like how they used the "#revrad" thing from the very beginning so that we got familiar with the abbreviation( if misspelled, IPhone autocorrect) and when the album will be out all of the fans will just talk about RevRad, you know?

Z J Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Revolution Radio is one of those titles that is super corny if the album doesn't come out strong. Also one of those titles that you can see being the perfect frame for an explosive pop punk assault on a chaotic political environment in the United States. Titles are like coaches, there are good ones, bad ones, but at the end of the day, who plays? Good songs will make the title seem all-the-better.

DookieLukie Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Listened to UNO today and realized how high-pitched and weak the vocals were. I hope Billie brings back that AI singing style in a lower octave and forgoes vocal perfection for passionate and energetic singing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdlyon Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I really wish the trilogy tour wasn't called the 99 Revolutions tour because The Revolution Tour for this album would be a dope tour name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterglasshalfempty Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I don't want to get my hopes up by listening to the review so far. I remember someone saying that the trilogy would sound like Dookie, and look how that turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Kid_88 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I like that some people are saying about radio snippets between songs being a cool idea. Just to expand on that a little, what if he album had a 30-45 second intro song (call it "sign of the times" for arguments sake. Which is someone flipping through radio stations. All they hear is a line on each channel about one issue tackled in the album... ie gun control, trump, media bias... Etc... Then the last station is just static. The person frantically changes the stations only to be greeted with static each time, until..... TWANG!!!! The opening chord of a song (say revrad or bang bang) takes over segueing into the first proper song on the album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I don't think they would do that because they did something very similar in the beginning of East Jesus Nowhere. Still awesome though.

matteo263 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 There's a review of Bang Bang (on the Bang Bang thread) that says that the song length is 3.25. Could this mean that the 'leaked' tracklist is indeed real? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
