1972 project speculation thread

[JardyOfSuburbia]

I love how much of a production a music video is for them. 5 PM to 3 AM!?

When I saw Gaslight Anthem a few weeks they just told us during the show they'd be filming a music video and they played a song twice and filmed it on a handheld camera. It took all of 15 minutes, haha.

What song by Gaslight Anthem?  I'd like to see that when it drops.  

Green Day might have multiple videos done by now with all the time ticking away.

Ikr! If they were to do one cool interview, it needs to be this. I want to watch them suffer while Sean brings out random lore that only we know about. Like at least Billie needs to go on. I swear I'm gonna send crush an angry email if they don't get them on hot ones. That's how serious I am about this.

Also as much as I don't like James Corden, I really wish that they would have done carpool karaoke while his show was still on. 

I hope one of the first questions they get is, “You started teasing a project called 1972 back in 2021. So, what happened?”

For the last couple albums didn't they release lyric videos on the day the singles came out and then music videos not too long after? That could be the case this time too

Even as far back as the Trilogy, that 3D Oh Love lyric video

It was this one. Add it to the list of great things I've seen at the House of Blues in Cleveland. 😊

If you run into the band they will take time to chat with you and take a picture and possibly sign something.

Not around AI, 21CB and the Trilogy (in my opinion at least). By the time RevRad came out it became much, much easier to run into them and all the small Longshot and Cover Ups shows have made it even more easy.

For sure. Especially at the Longshot shows. That's how I met Billie in San Francisco. They just pulled up in the van and parked right next to the line lol. Barely anyone noticed Billie walking around. But he was also on his way to soundcheck so I didn't wanna bother him too much. So I didn't ask him for a picture or anything. But another guy next to me did and it sort of cringe because he had the pen and everything ready. Almost like he wasn't a legit fan just an autograph hound. Billie was like "One autograph? Okay. Just one cause I gotta run". And he shook the guy's hand. And he shook my hand too! lol. I was like please don't lump me in with this guy haha.

I can't believe I've yet to have any run-ins with them outside of Tre riding his bike around Pittsburgh and me saying hi to him as he rode by.

Billie didn't hang around in Philly for The Longshot show I went to which was a bummer. Felt like that was my best chance to meet him.

[Flashback]

Just because they film for a music video on Wednesday doesn't mean that they shoot the whole video on this day. Maybe they already shot large parts of the video and now they film some scenes with an audience. Remember the Bang Bang video. They don't need to film the whole video on one day.

I wonder about the song lengths.  Father of All is amazing, but it just zips by so fast.  We'd definitely all be bummed if this album was that short.   FOAM too short, Trilogy too long.

Hope its about 45-60 minutes with 14-15 songs 🙏

I wanna be greedy. Like 21st C, 18 tracks 1 hour 18 minutes please. That will do nicely thank you. No pressure GD.

100% sure about Saviors being a song title + the album name. And heard rumors about American Dream being another song.

Definitely! I would like the opposite of foam, 50 minutes of pure green day rockers, ballads, acoustic songs, nimrod meets 21st century breakdown would be my ideal gd album.

Everything they said was still just rumours we'd already heard here

[Little Boy Named Booze]

The Broken World riff in the teaser sound like something that could be used for opening the album. 
Like Song of the century but heavier.

AI was massive though so there were definitely more security risks at that time but they did sign for people at that time. They did a dedicated signing event at HMV in Toronto when AI came out. Something they no longer do.

I remember this is the first lyric video I ever saw.

I honestly I find more value in shorter albums. I find most lengthy albums are cluttered with filler (not the case with 21cb) so I don't mind a 10 track album. Just as long as it's not as short as FOAM.

They did a signing for RevRad in 2016 in LA

Was it an exclusive event or was it public?

If the new stuff is like 21CB I’ll be pretty happy. Since the teaser dropped I’ve gone back and listened to that album (I didn’t realize how long it’s been since I had and it was so worth the relisten). The dream would be for another bit of Mike singing on the new album but that’s some hardcore wishful thinking.

My needs are minimal. Just gimme lyrics on a level above "stick a hammer in your mouth"
