A little over a year and a half since Saviors came out, so when could we start hearing any rumors or hints about album 15?

I’m with @Clockwise and as a European who loves the US, watching what’s happening there, I think now is not the time for the olive branch but to be loud and angry.

100%. In my country we just had elections a few months ago and the choice was between a guy similar to Trump and an ex-social activist for some good causes. 
 

The people who voted for Trump-wanna-be were hateful, uneducated, and wanted to take away our freedom and human rights, and sell us to Putin. I’m usually a pretty peaceful person, all about diplomacy, but I’d never extend an olive branch to them. God can forgive them, because I certainly can’t.

There’s only so much you can do when it comes to disagreeing on politics. But you can’t be friends with those who want to take away your rights.

You could like Green Day…and also not share EVERY opinion of theirs and still be a fan and a good person.

Wow, things went off topic very drastically, very quickly

Personally, I don't think we should be extending olive branches to Nazis but that's just me!

So if you are not far left or a Bernie supporter and your in the middle then your a nazi?

Not to go too off topic, but if you're on the fence about mass deportations, trans rights or the genocide in Gaza, then I think you've made your choice. I'm not talking about either of you personally, but more and more these days saying you're in "the middle" just means you're on the right but are too afraid to say it.

100% I agree that no one should be extending olive branches to Nazis.

That said, I don't think you can categorize every single Trump supporter as a Nazi. Even numerically, if you look at pretty much any poll in the US right now, you can see that the majority of people do not agree with indiscriminate mass deportation, and yet the majority of people who voted, voted for Trump. So obviously there are people who voted for him (many, I would say) who do not agree with mass deportation (the same can probably be said on trans rights, genocide, or any other topic under the sun, but I'll stick to the mass deportation example here). When someone says they are for "border security" that can mean a million different things for a million different people: in the far right end of the spectrum, sure you will find people who want no immigrants at all, no matter their circumstances, background, or how much they positively contribute to the country, and who think indiscriminate mass deportation is great. But for others it will mean deporting only those with a violent criminal record, for others it will be deporting anyone with a criminal record, be it violent or not, for someone else it will mean deporting people with a criminal record as well as those who entered illegally, even if they have no criminal record at all, etc etc.., and none of these people necessarily support mass and indiscriminate deportations, and you can definitely have reasonable conversations with any of them. Many of them might have voted for Trump mainly because he promised to deport criminals, and they believed that wouldn't mean mass indiscriminate deportations, or they might have voted for Trump mainly for another reason and this was just secondary.  But if we just label them all as Nazis / fascist / pro mass indiscriminate deportation, we are not going to be able to communicate with them, to understand them, or much less to get them to consider switching sides. I truly do believe that the only way out of this mess is dialogue, and a dialogue where we can see nuances and not just have a binary classification where you are either a democrat or a fascist.

And before anyone blames me of being "far right but too afraid to admit it", keep in mind that I am Venezuelan, and half my family is currently in the US based there an asylum seekers, and Venezuelans are the favorite target population for Trump's deportation program right now, so not only am I vehemently again mass deportation, but in the case of the US it is a very personal issue for me, one in which I have actual skin in the game.

Also the comment that started all of this was someone imagining a song where Billie talks about Trump's assassination attempt, and how even though he hates the guy, he doesn't want that type of violence, and how that'd be extending an olive branch to the other side. Making a jump from that, to extending an olive branch to Nazi's, it's quite a leap in my opinion.

I could see Billie writing a song about the assassination attempt on Trump, like where he expresses his hatred for him while at the same time calling for the end of violence

I couldn't lol

Billie isn't a centrist he's a leftist liberal and a punk. He will never be a centrist especially not at a time when the right is absolutely insane and doing horrendous damage across the earth

No im mostly in the middle pro gay marriage pro border security pro life for gun control against war. There is a middle where most people land on 

Because you have some reasonable stances doesn't make your unreasonable and harmful stances any more justified. If you are pro what ICE is doing right now and pro forced birth and denying women bodily autonomy those are fascist stances and you can expect to be judged for them

By European standards he’s definitely not a leftist, more of a center-left, but Americans categorize Bernie as a leftist, and he’s center left at most on a good day, mostly a centrist.  
 

American politics are so fucked up that advocating for basic human rights turns you into a “leftist”.

I‘m with you there and wish this could be possible. But sadly I‘ve lost hope for something like this to happen. I can’t speak for the US, not enough insight there. But here in Germany the fascist party is rapidly gaining ground which horrifies me. And their voters don’t want to discuss, they don’t want arguments. They live with their view of the world that can’t be changed. I don’t see a solution…😟

I have the same problem. I’m usually all for dialogue and understanding each other but with these idiots there’s literally nothing to talk about because they don’t wanna talk. They are brainwashed through and through and they want to live under a dictatorship. They need a big brother to tell them what to do and how to live their life.

Exactly. And I absolutely cannot understand this. Personal freedom is one of the greatest goods we have.

Wow, what's going on in the Album 15 Speculation thread today . All I am reading is nazi nazi nazi. I do not think just cuz you're a trump voter means you automatically agree with EVERYTHING he says and does. For example, someone could've voted for him, being like "well, both the candidates suck, so I will pick the lesser of two evils." Yeah, trump has done bad things, but his voters right now cannot change or do something about it. Therefore, not all trump voters are nazis

I am not dedicated to left or right. To me, trump is not a very good person, and I do not agree with a majority of what he does, but that doesn't mean his voters are the same way.

I'm sorry, but if there is 5 people sitting at a table and one of them is a nazi then there's 5 nazis at that table. As @Hermione pointed out earlier, "Border Security" in practice means sending ICE gestapo squads out to rip innocent people from their families without warrants or due process, and "pro life" means forced birth. People seem to not realize how horrific this all is. Also, I find it very hard to believe people when they claim they thought Trump was only going to deport dangerous criminals because we have over a decade of racist anti-immigrant rhetoric from him at this point.

This is part of the cycle. It’ll happen every 3-4 months until the album comes out. 

[pacejunkie punk]

I’m predicting an album sometime in late 2027/early 2028. There I said it.

[Clockwise]

Longshot EP or album late 2026. New Green Day early 2028. 

[nowshesgone]

screw the album, how about speculating on the setlists?
i believe that this time around, Know Your Enemy and Brain Stew will be dropped, with KFAD and Pollyanna making a return

I would love it if they swapped the Brain Stew into St. Jimmy trick around and did Are We The Waiting into Jaded.

They're starting to throw in Trilogy songs!! It's only a matter of time before we FINALLY get a live version of Dirty Rotten Bastards!!!!!

True but it's relative. I imagine he (along with many left leaning Americans) would support US "left" parties moving further left/being closer to European left standards if that was on the table

I like it. And it seems plausible since Billie seems to be a writing machine that never stops so he's gonna have to do something between albums

[GreenDayJunkie86]

haha i just got the biggest "...anyways..." vibe from the comments today lol. there's a reason people shouldn't talk about politics lol. Let's get back on topic

Yeah, I believe a new album should drop between 2028-2030. I say that because the boys have said they are taking a break for a sec, so I am giving them a year or two more than the "expected" sequence date allows.

[killjoywhatsername]

What’s making people think there might be more Longshot? I’d love it. My Longshot show was probably my favorite live show I’ve been to so I hope for more but idk if Billie will bring it back.

Billie typically needs a creative outlet between GD records (while Mike and Tre get to spend time with their younger children), so why not bring back the Shot?

I would love it, but I could see him trying something new before doing another Shot project.  The songs he did for Pinhead Gunpowder sound like they could be Longshot songs so if he didn’t save them for that he’s probably not planning another album.  

I suppose it all depends on what the songs he writes sound like, whether he thinks they’d suit Green Day, an existing project or a new one. I imagine the songs come first then he decides where they fit.

I’m thinking now Warning Anniversary? This October would be when it is 25 and insomniac 30

I don’t think it’s a surprise that people talk politics on a forum about a punk band, the one music genre that’s all about politics? 😅 especially a band that’s where vocal about where they stand at almost every concert

Yeah sorry but if you still support Trump with everything going on right now you are actively supporting a fascist regime. There's no 'both sides are bad' argument of any substance to be made. Most politicians left or right lie and obfuscate, Trump is something else. He is the worst impulses of humanity wrapped in an incredibly thin skinned and cruel old man. 

Anyway...I agree, at a guess I could see potentially getting some hints in 2027. 

[Gonzalo17]

Mi mind now is in short term about an hipotethical OST from the movie new years Rev with hipotethical new material and in mid term about al hipotethical live saviors tour album. We had one album and a half recently, so i think Next one Will be in at least 5 years
