Is this song to be expected heavy, normal or quiet?

Depends on the context.

Lyrically, somewhat heavy since it's about Billies addiction to Drugs and alcohol.

Production wise we don't know yet

[Little Boy Named Booze]

What a great way to wake up this morning

[TrillieGD]

Cant wait for the song, i feel this one will be special 

[BilIie Joe Armstrong]

Using the song that has been introduced as dealing with one of the few personal things that are widely known about the band makes perfect sense. Looking forward to it!

[The Grohl]

An early Christmas gift from Green Day. Love it! 😍

Anyone knows at what time the song will be released?

I was absolutely convinced that Father to a Son would be the next single but I guess that one will be released as a single when the album drops (or maybe not, who knows). I’m excited to hear Dilemma, especially because the two songs we got o far are quite different from one another (and we know that OEB is different, too). So I’m really hoping for an album that features the different styles that have defined the band’s discography over the last 30+ years.

From the Kerrang interview discussing the song Dilemma: 

 

And when Billie looks inwards, it's equally as poignant. Take Dilemma, which hears him singing how, 'I was sober / Now I'm drunk again, and, 'I don't wanna be a dead man walking.'

"That's one of my favourite songs on the record," he says. "I think it really cuts to the core of drug addiction, alcohol addiction and mental health. The first line is, 'Welcome to my problems / It's not an invitation.' It almost sounds like Facebook within itself (laughs).

It's like, 'Come feel sorry for me, come feel my pain.' But, you know, I don't have Facebook or Twitter, so I just do it in songs to where I think with melody it becomes more relatable, and

people can interpret it in the different ways they want. It could be me just joking, but it could be dead fucking serious, too."

[That Dude]

Green Day should release all 15 as singles.   Why not?  If someone says "flooding the market"   shake your Trilogy Fist at them.   Shake it!!!!!

Can't wait for Thursday!  Seems like this song especially is very personal to Billie based on what he said about it in the Kerrang interview.

Can someone post a link to the leaked Italian billboard article? I'm trying to find out if they gave any significant info about dilemma besides some lyrical content 

[Swaggerbeggar]

I'm expecting a mid-tempo When I Come Around/Warning/Walking Alone type of song this time around.

They didn’t describe it musically. This was all they said:

We all know about Billie Joe's struggles with alcohol and substances. It's less expected that he decides to lay it bare and talk about it frankly in a song with an unequivocal meaning. Hats off.

Selected lyrics: "I was sober, now I’m drunk again / I’m in trouble and in love again / I don’t want to be a dead man walking."

[That Dude]

Mid tempo.  A little slower than American Dream but not much slower.   Might have a slow part but mostly middish, methinks. 

[Jankowski576]

Someone should Shazam all of the teasers to see if it’s uploaded to streaming services yet

[BratReject23]

I'm hoping Dilemma is this one

I can sing the lyrics to that the solo melody

The heavy guitars in that clip are so sick, I’m excited to hear what song they belong to!
