andrews Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Honestly, I don't think the new Green Day album will ever come out. And yes I know that they have been writing songs, (I hear they have 45 songs so far or something like that), but I think I've come to the conclusion of why they haven't come out with it yet. The way I see it is that Green Day (before American Idiot) didn't care too much about how well album sales and all that stuff after they released an album. Of course, (I know a lot of fans will disagree with me) American Idiot was definitely their best album made. The thing is, I think they are having trouble trying to make their new album better then American Idiot. So what they did was create a side project called the "Foxboro Hot tubs" as you all know, and they made songs that they really wanted to play. These are the same band members, but they switched their name so they wouldn't be criticized as much. They did this for fun, not for album sales and money. I think that they have been fed up with being so mainstream, and their record company is probably pissing them off a lot too.I think that they are going to stick to this new band "Foxboro Hot tubs" because this is how they would want to make music anyway. So my question to you guys is, do you think that the Green Day album will ever come out? And what are your thoughts for the Foxboro hot tubs? If you didn't know it was the members of green day, would you still like them?
Hermione Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 So how do you explain them having The Network and then bringing out American Idiot?Btw, there was a 4 year gap between Warning and American Idiot. It's only been 3 1/2 years since American Idiot, so...
andrews Posted June 12, 2008 Author Posted June 12, 2008 I'm not to sure with the network...Did they even admit to being the network?
Ila Reto Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 I'm not to sure with the network...Did they even admit to being the network?officially unofficial.
andrews Posted June 12, 2008 Author Posted June 12, 2008 "I just wanted to talk about the rumors and the bullshit that has been going on lately. All I gotta say is fuck The Network. These guys are totally spreading rumors. I try to do those guys a favour by bringing them to this country and putting out their record and this is how I get repaid, by talking shit about my band. Unfortunately there is a contract and I have to put out their record. The only thing I can say is Fuck you, Network. Bring it on." billie joe
Ila Reto Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Btw, there was a 4 year gap between Warning and American Idiot. It's only been 3 1/2 years since American Idiot, so...true that!haha this is gonna get closed. "I just wanted to talk about the rumors and the bullshit that has been going on lately.

Bring it on." billie joe....and?i mean, if you can't tell that the network is green day, you either haven't heard their music or you're just plain dumb. no offense. and did i welcome you to gdc yet?
randomness Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 we had this thread a month ago. but i'll see where it goes.i don't know why people are assuming Green Day aren't coming back. it hasn't been 10 years since their last album it's been almost 4. and dookie was just as big but they made many albums after that.
Hermione Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 I'm not to sure with the network...Did they even admit to being the network?I think the fact that they've done this Foxboro thing shows they are in the mood for making music, so a new Green Day album would be more likely if anything. Sure I'd love a new album as soon as possible, who wouldn't? But I think it just takes time to make a quality record so we all just have to be patient
CarnageXB Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 The new album will come out. There is already a date.
FJ Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 and did i welcome you to gdc yet?Have you been appointed 'GDC's Official n00b Greeter' then?

Ila Reto Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 oh and to put my 2 cents in (again)im guessing this is going to be the same situation as The Network. being some creative run-off from their album in the works, they didn't want to throw away pretty decent songs, but felt like they didn't want to release it under their own name. plus...it's fun! for both the band and the fans obviously. i dont think they're too concerned with trying to one-up american idiot. i mean, not at this point.Have you been appointed 'GDC's Official n00b Greeter' then?no. smart ass. but i do like to do it as much as i can.
NoVaCaInE! Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Well a couple of months back if i thought that Green Day were gonna finish and go on as Foxboro Hot Tubs i woulda been pretty ticked off, but now i really dont know. Im liking the Foxboro Hot Tubs music a lot and id be happy with whatever they wanna do. I cant see them giving up Green Day though
andrews Posted June 12, 2008 Author Posted June 12, 2008 Either way I hope if their new album comes out that it is better then any other album they have made haha.
Hermione Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 ^^Hell yeah Alanna. People are just getting a little impatient because obviously Green Day are awesome and a new album would be great. There's no need to worry and come up with theories, we'll get a new album when it's ready and not before. In the meantime, let's enjoy the fabulous Foxboro Hot Tubs!
netty Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 The new album will come out. There is already a date.really? and some random fan would know that?
NoVaCaInE! Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Either way I hope if their new album comes out that it is better then any other album they have made haha.Well doesnt everyone ?
Ila Reto Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 let's enjoy the fabulous Foxboro Hot Tubs!yep! i was reading an old post from some person (the guy who sang american idiot too early on BIAB) about 2 hours agoand then i was like, idk i got all energized for FHT again. Then i listened to the album a few hundred times and am now figuring out how to play Shes a Saint on bass. i still am hoping for all of you UK-ers that they'll go on that england tour!I can't believe i wasn't really into them a few months ago!and now Poof!
cocopot Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Well, I think it's a contradiction to say that they have used the FBHT as a bypass of being able to release and play their music. I mean, surely Green Day wouldn't care what others thought of new material and they would release it regardless of what majorities may say. I'd say that would be a pretty punk thing to do, don't you?Unless they actually care about the sales and it's phenominal success to a painfully vein degree That to me defeats the whole attitude of the guys themselves.On the oher hand, you may well be right. Who knows

CarnageXB Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 really? and some random fan would know that?There was a thread about it somewhere on this forum. It was a more of a month then an exact date and it was in a different language. I'm sure if there wasnt another album they would of told us.
Hermione Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 i still am hoping for all of you UK-ers that they'll go on that england tour!Me too
FJ Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 no. smart ass. but i do like to do it as much as i can.I find it creepy, but that might just be me. Meh.really? and some random fan would know that?I always forget you're in the inner-circle when it comes to GD knowledge.
