I'm not able to download bang bang instantly, it says it releases 12/08/16 (i.e. 12th August).  Is it different on the US store?

Like I said, I got mine in the Order Confirmation email. Already put it on my phone, haha

From where?

Off the official Green Day site.  If you pre-order the vinyl or lyric book you get an immediate Bang Bang download

Man, the hate for Green Day is always so irritating. Just reading the comments of news outlets reporting on the new single, this was one of the comments:

"The only revolution they are leading is that they are still playing crappy bubblegum pop punk, still!!!!!!..... crap!"

That is such an ignorant statement, showing they didn't even listen to at least 1 second of Bang Bang.

Get used to it. People been shitting on Trilogy for years now. And those records were awesome.

I'm glad they didn't sell themselves like that.

Why? They've had tons of songs featured in movies in the past.

Everything here is being posted so fast-paced but just throwing this in in case someone hasnt seen it The new Rolling Stone article/interview with Billie Joe is great. Lots of insight on the album, the lyrics, the production, confirmation of what OTIS is, anda promise of tour date releases "pretty soon" http://www.rollingstone.com/music/features/billie-joe-armstrong-on-green-days-topical-new-lp-w433483

Yep, looks like people ordering from the euro store have to wait til tomorrow.  Stoopid Americans, getting preferential treatment :P

iTunes only has one song marked with explicit. I guess Green Day is cutting back on the curse words.

Includes

32 page 5 5/8" x 7 5/8" Hardcover Book
with CD featuring bonus photos, art, and lyrics

Download of the album on release date

Instant download of the song “Bang Bang”

I'm questioning that too because you would look at "CD featuring bonus photos, art, and lyrics"

It's not new to me, it just gets old. Been listening to the same Green Day bashing since 2004 when I became a fan.

I find the song to be okay. The lyrics are kind of cringe-worthy at some points and the song itself isn't really anything particularly new or different from the band. Also, the fact that the main riff is torn directly from St. Jimmy kind of continues the narrative of them pinching from their own songs. 

I enjoyed the added dynamics of the track and the guitar tone, but yeah, nothing about it is really all that special.

I agree totally. It's a lot like EJN as I said before. I'll still buy the album and see them on tour but don't find it to be massively different.

Can't say I like the filters on the vocals. Fits the song maybe, but hopefully not used in the whole album.

Billies been using the filter in every song since AI why would he stop all the sudden?

I'm glad I'm not the only one that liked the Trilogy. It had it's problems sure, but the music made me happy.

Just pre-ordered the lyric book and CD. 

WOW!

It's good to be back and see some familiar names.  Kind of like coming back to summer camp and seeing all your old friends again.

NOW I JUST CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE TOUR!!!!

I absolutely loved the trilogy. I never understood the hate. Regardless though, this new song is better than most of the trilogy songs
