Was literally coming here to ask that. Japan would have had it for quite a while by now.

Someone posted a youtube link a few weeks back.

It is not at all Saviors quality. It sounds like FOAM sessions. Its trash.

Dude we've known it's a FOAM outtake since the snippet leaked like half a year ago. I wanna hear an unreleased Green Day song no matter what era or session it's from.

My top 3 from Saviors.

1.Look Ma, No Brains! (My absolute favourite since bang bang)

2. Suzie Chapstick ( Dreamy chorus .Funny how I hated this song at first listen)

3.Fancy Sauce (Best closure since Whatsername imo)

Complementary - Father to a Son (They could've done a lot better with this song, but overall a good one nonetheless).

Lots and lots of good songs on this album. Overall a solid 8/10.

[Lenny]

Still no shipping notice for my vinyl. Kinda sucks cause this happened with foamf too. I mean I can stream it while I work tomorrow but would really like to hear the vinyl.

I hope fever would be at least on GD's Youtube Channel, I wanna listen to it. Saviors... I love it!! What a SOLID record, wonderful production!!

The Green Dream Team is back!! (GD + Cavallo + Lord-Alge)

[Zachary Perron]

This is definitely my favorite Green Day record since 21st Century Breakdown! Just flows well! Even the two tunes I don’t really care for (One Eyed Bastard and Saviors) are still pretty enjoyable. Absolutely loving Bobby Sox, 1981, Goodnight Adeline, Coma City, Strange Days Are Here To Stay, Living In The 20’s, and Fancy Sauce! Truly hope the band keeps Cavallo going forward! The production is super crisp!

I have been holding off on all kinds of teasers and low quality leaks and, my God, was it worth it, WHAT AN ALBUM! The fact that this guys are delivering such a passionated proyect +30 years into their career, 9 year old me really knew what was up when I chose them as my band 🥲

I think as fans, we always talk about how special and magical their bond is, but I can honestly say that I've never heard that chemistry so clearly than in this record. All three of them seem at the top of their game, without outshining one another; Tre absolutely murdered this album! Mike also shines like he hasn't in a long time with so many great licks, and I truly believe this album is Billie's best album in terms of vocal delivery. When it comes to lyrics, I think there's an interesting balance in between the cynical absurdism of songs like Fancy Sauce, Living in the 20s and Strange Days, and the earnest nostalgia of songs like Saviors, Susie Chapstick and Goodnight Adeline. I'm sure there's a lot of layers hiding in the lyrics, and I'm definitely gonna have fun peeling each song back. For some reason, the line "Everybody is sleep but nobody is dreaming, we got all the fiction that's worth believing" really stuck with me.

Overall, I would say what I love most about the album is the conviction that seems to pour out of it. After being completely ridiculed with FOAM, any band would hide their tail between their legs and go to the studio to write a perfectly fine album with a "back to their roots" sound. But Green Day are not just any band; they stick to their guns and keep surprising us with unexpected gems like Susie Chapstick and Bobby Sox. I think there's an special symbolism in this project being the first Green Day record in which they own their masters, and the one that manages to capture their essence best. 

On first listen, my favorites were Coma City, Father to a Son, Susie Chapstick, Saviors, Goodbye Adeline and Fancy Sauce. I absolutely loved all the mid-tempo songs, but really, the album is outstanding, so balanced and dynamic, I really can't put it down, IT'S LIKE CRACK! I know for a fact that I'm not gonna sleep tonight haha

GDC City open your eyes: It’s been one hell of a ride. Since the end of 2021, we've been eagerly anticipating this album. We've had our highs and lows. Initially, based on the birthdates and the first teasers, we thought the album would be released in 2022. Then we thought it was postponed to 2023. Finally, we received the news that 2024 would be the release year. However, our motivation, excitement, and joy for a new album were stronger than the fact that we had to wait even longer. Now the time has come! We persevered and demonstrated patience! The album has been released and we earned it! Green Day is back with arguably their best work since American Idiot/21CB! Enjoy listening and everything that is yet to come! Happy Release Day and the best regards from a tiny country called Austria!

Aaaaaahhhhhhhh it’s out !!!!!!!

 

[StefanD]

That Bobby Sox video....yes

[ollhjr]

Getting close to listening to the album for the second time, after hearing it the listening party I attended last week.  Played Dookie, American Idiot, and currently wrapping up listening to 21st Century Breakdown, the album that got me here, all in a row leading into Saviors.  Full blast and on repeat!!  Enjoy everyone!  I am so happy to be in this space with so much awesome fan engagement by Green Day and their respective team.  It's been a minute since I have been this excited about an album cycle.  

[GDFan2019]

HOLY SHIT!!! Billie's vocals on Bobby Sox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rumpelstiltskin2000]

Billie just posted this on his Instagram story "Saviors is out!"

Finally, no more moderating leaks! 

... I mean, yay, happy album release day!   

[StefanD]

Its so good to hear the overwhelming positivity for this album....its been a hell of a long time since a)the community and b) the general public have been so receptive. As a FOAM fan it was hard to get through GDC but look at us all now! 

[DookieLukie]

First listen! "Bobby Sox" is definitely Weezer-esque and Chester-esque. Wasn't expecting that tempo but really fresh sounding!

[JReevz]

The vocal layering on all these songs to create harmonies of Billie’s different ranges is amazing - first time on a Green Day album where the singing might be my favorite part and not the guitar
