At this point, my opinion on Saviors is more or less the same as my opinion on RevRad. A good album but too derivative of what they've done before. It has stronger production & lyricism (at least for the more political tracks) than RevRad but I think RevRad probably has the better songwriting overall and isn't as derivative. I'd say it'll still probably be a couple years before we hear anything about the next album. We might get a couple standalone songs in the meantime like Pollyanna but idk. I hope the next album isn't anything like the Deluxe tracks of Saviors which I felt were particularly weak compared to the standard album tracks. I dislike FOAM but I do hope that the band steps out of their comfort zone a little bit more for the next album. They don't need to change producers, I think we'd all be happy to have Rob stay but they need to change things up a bit.

Nah 3-4 year gap is still plenty of time

this thread is really old but i feel like saying something about bang bang, my friend absolutely hates this song. he made fun of me for listening to it once, but whatever, i understand why some people might not like this song... though i remember seeing green day perform this song for the music awards in 2016. it was the first time i ever had heard the song. and when they did the "no trump, no kkk..." chant, it genuinely stuck to me for a while. that chant alone sort of brought some kind of immediate meaning to the song. i cant decipher lyrics well, so it really felt amazing how something so simple can reach out to me like that. genuinely the one of most relevant parts of a song i've ever heard, and that alone made me love the song so much. i love bang bang.

I'm listening to Fancy Sauce. This song has really grown on me. What a good song. Btw I got bored with Father to a Son. Once great, but now I've kind of lost interest.

i would be shocked if the release schedule has a new album in it right now/before 2027 at the earliest

It's a good thought, and although the band deserve a rest, they soon get restless. However, with other things being discussed, the movie, and a hint of a possible live album for 2026, I'm not sure. I've a feeling that the next studio album release could coincide with 21st Century Breakdown's 20th anniversary in 2029?

I love Fancy Sauce. There’s something special to it….❤️ Father to a Son was a bit disappointing for me. It’s missing something to make it really great but I can’t say what it is.😅

I could maybe see a single or two pop up from now through 2027, but I don't anticipate an album release until 2028 at the earliest. My thought is that as the guys get older, we will see longer and longer periods between releases.

The Flaming Olive Branch - November 19th, 2027 (haha) Poison in Poseidon's Coffee Mad Season Creepy Crawlees of Habit Mike's A Jerk We're Going Home and no, I'm not going to flood the forum with tracklists but trying to get us back on topic so you guys don't get warnings about the above conversation. I have a lizard in my kitchen.

So, now that we're going into 2026, what are the chances we hear news of the guys in the studio some time next summer or fall, with a single coming some time in late 2027, and an album in 2028?

From Green Day Italia on IG:

Bang bang needs to be the opener in concerts that song rocks live I wish they didn’t drop it

It was fun! I remember getting soooo exciting and felt like i was solving a crime every time I watched the teasers lol. I was like "what does it mean?!" haha at that point i should've had a corkboard with some pins and some red string

Not to go too off topic, but if you're on the fence about mass deportations, trans rights or the genocide in Gaza, then I think you've made your choice. I'm not talking about either of you personally, but more and more these days saying you're in "the middle" just means you're on the right but are too afraid to say it.
