Yup, but if their recordings are in stereo (I guess so since almost everything released digitally is nowadays stereo, even older GD records), once they upload the file on Instagram it automatically converts it to mono with a -3b mono summing, which creates a lot of annoying distortions and peaks. Listen to any recent release uploaded on Instagram and you will notice the same, unless there's been an ad hoc mastering process (which I am quite sure is not our case).

I was talking about album covers, RevRad is their 1st stereo.

Wish I got royalties for all these songs about me.

I’m glad I’m such a blabber mouth that my silence on something is being used as a clue. 

Damned if I do and such... 

If @Khaleesi. comes to LA, I’ll give her some info to share. So it’s all on her. ;)

OKAY on my way! :ga:

Unfortunately, everything since RevRad has been highly compressed, but not in a good way (it kind of worked for American Idiot). Excited nonetheless!

Everything since revrad is...one song? 😂

honestly I don’t understand how some fans will literally never be happy, one minute it’s ‘I want old green day’ next it’s ‘I want them to try new things’ like chill out and just appreciate new music.

Listen to Billie: “Shut up and have fun!” 

No wonder he’s reluctant to put music out there when there are so many critics and gripers. Would it kill you to stroke the guy’s ego for once?  :lol: He’s harder on himself than anyone will ever be so be a fan and show some support.

Yeah the last two pages have been kind of a bummer. I'm a trilogy die-hard so this seems like it'll be right up my alley!

From the screenshot of his comments, it sounds like he’s really opening up emotionally and personally in this release. And I just feel so thankful that he’s communicating with fans like he is. While honest criticism shouldn’t be stifled, I agree that people shouldn’t be completely discouraged by an issue with filter on one song. Let’s let this thing play out and give Billie his due credit for making himself so available and being so open.

It looks like the official account reposted this fanpost. Can someone confirm?

 

 

That's just fans doing what Billie told them to do, spread fake news!

Are you really suggesting the idea of Billie in a loincloth? Don't be naughty.

He's a fantastic songwriter so if these songs are well produced without a huge vocal filter then I'm sure it'll be a great project

Billie wants to fans to spread fakes news because he knows that we're very close to the truth, we have to stay strong in front of the misinformation :runaround:

I think it's pretty awesome, and smart of Green Day to release music under side projects! 

They're still doing what they love, and satisfying their fans, without over doing it and releasing too many albums as Green Day in too short a time! (Kind ruined Weezer for me)

 I really think that's helped them stay relevant and fresh over the years!

Yeah unrelated but why is Weezer still doing that? ... It clearly hasn't worked in the past.. *Cough* Raditude *Cough*

WHAT?!? What album? I just saw the clip of chasing a ghost on twitter :runaround:

Is there a new side project on the loose?!? :dance:

 

Also: I'm convinced BJ's voice is getting higher by the month

Do you think it’s any kind of coincidence that Cardi B is releasing a debut album on April 6? 😂

Billie follows her instagram account and someone joked on the Longshot account that Love is for Losers would feature Cardi B and he replied “I wish!”. Then with all the speculation about an April 6 release date I just thought it was funny that her album does in fact come out April 6. 🙂
