So i feel I've never made a true speculation on here, so this is what I think:

The album will be 12 songs, with a run time of 45-50 minutes

No song will hit the 5 minute mark.

There will be one slow/ballad type song.

The album will be released May 12.

Expand  

What will the 7th song be called?  The one with the 3:42 run time.

You're definitely thinking about this one. I could picture a beautiful piano and lush string section joining in!!!

Yes.  16, One of my lies, Basketcase, 86, Worry Rock, Deadbeat Holiday, Give Me Novacaine, Last Night on Earth, Loss of Control, Stray Heart, Little Boy Named Train, Still Breathing and Sugar Youth are all total ballads.   

that is a really strong mix right there though.   Not the greatest, but really strong.

I know, right? The last one was back on August 15th and we got none in September, I'm guessing because of all those festivals they played throughout the month. They have a little break now before the F1 show in Austin, Texas on the 21st and that's also their last show of the year.

Seriously. They started early and now there’s nothing. 

Probably something really interesting will happen soon with new music. I hope that’s what is the reason for all this drawn out anticipation. Or they don’t care and there’s no reason for anything.

In that one magazine interview, Billie said it's coming out in 2023, and I found it odd that they started teasing as soon as December 2021, and by doing that, they implied that release is much much sooner than that. I mean, we didn't even officially know about FOAM until the day before the single came out. We only knew for months that they were in the studio because of Butch Walker's video. I really think they're putting a lot of work into 1972, whether it be grandiose production, a double album, or maybe even a triple album done right!!! We already saw CLA in that one teaser in the summer, so obviously they were already in the mixing stage by then. So if everything is finished, why would they put it off until next year?

Marketing. It will not be a triple album.

I hope it’s not just marketing. This is the worst marketing if that’s the case. This is actually frustrating as a fan. It feels really lazy and disconnected which is not how it used to be with this band and the fan base.

They have been teasing since at least December 2021. The teases weren’t even that detailed or much of anything. Two years of teases that lead nowhere is really frustrating.

If this is released as a well done long (maybe even a double or triple) album with an actual behind the scenes making of the record documentary like if this is as interesting and exciting as the songs and the process of the Trilogy all will feel like it was worth the speculation and the long wait.

I hope it’s as great as the process of the Trilogy and as much of a shakeup for the band as American Idiot. New and exciting but not a rushed sloppy caricature of what the band thinks is new and exciting (like FOAM). Maybe some elements of what made the Longshot so great injected back into Green Day.

I think the ‘teases’ should never be assumed to be teases in the first place, but more of a ‘we’re doing stuff and it’s fun and exciting’ kind of thing, plans change and things develop differently all the time, so it’s not like they (probably) planned to be teasing for this long, it’s just ended up this way. It’s cool to get an insight into what they’re up to cause the alternative would be nothing at all and that’s boring too. 

i feel like this we might get some rumblings of something soon though.

I'm hoping things would ramp up after the F1 show in Texas on the 21st, which, like I said, is the last show of the year!!!

Guys, it's definitely not gonna be a double or triple album. They're never going to do that again. I'd honestly be shocked if we got an album that surpasses 1 hour of length ever again

This. I expect a high quality album of average run time (40-50 minutes at most)

12-14 tracks, and they even managed to fit 18 tracks into 49 minutes on Nimrod
