SEAtacticsFTW Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 So this is a little strange, and is possibly a 100% fake, but it's still interesting. A user on reddit by the name of Homepolecat96 posted a, what seems to be, a leak of the 13th studio album by Green Day titled Radio Revolution. The cover seems to feature Clint Eastwood and is very similar to Kerplunk's album cover. But what do you think? Is this real, or is this a well crafted fake? Personally I don't know what to think. I think it's an amazing cover that new and refreshing from the highly produced album covers Green Day has had.

The Great Saiyaman Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I don't know what to think either... Could be a leak. At first I thought it may have been a newly released live bootleg, but I've been searching for a little bit and can't find anything! I think it looks really cool though! I hope it is the real cover. It reminds me of the cover of Social Distortion's self-titled album (check it out if you haven't, thank me later). Also, it would be really helpful if the whole note at the top right of the photo was revealed so we can see what it says (I know you didn't post the photo, just wish the guy would've done that)!
lizziebix Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I wouldn't mind Radio Revolution as an album title but I'm thinking someone just pulled the picture and an idea of the title together. Doesn't look real to me but I've been so wrong about these kinds of things before.
Heather. Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Doubt it's real. I wouldn't mind the Clint Eastwood cover, but "Radio Revolution" is so cheesy I will bang my head against a wall if that turns out to be true.
lizziebix Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I actually don't like the Clint picture with the gun. Hoping that's not real.

Given the issues of gun violence lately it makes you wonder, if this was real, if that would be something that they would care about and be on their minds. Part of me feels like they would take a stance against putting a gun on their album cover nowadays, but then again they're not always hypersensitive and iconic imagery is iconic imagery. That being said this is probably fake lol.
ZSebs Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I think it is fake for a lot of reasons, but my main reason in the parental advisory sticker. It does not look like the typical sticker that is on other albums, it looks more cartoonish.
DookieLukie Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Maybe the gun on the cover is a statement against guns. Doesn't mean they're promoting gun use.
Sanity Loan Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I don't know guys.... the explicit sticker certainly matches the feel of the cover, which I don't know if that's allowed or not. I won't say this is fake.
DookieLukie Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Was hoping the title would be "Revolution Radio" though. And I don't doubt there's a nut out there who would do such a thing, but I can't imagine spending all this time and effort to troll people online.
Fuzz Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Not real. Person who made the artwork clarified It's not real, sorry! I was the one who made it, I just did it just as a concept thing. Here's a full resolution version of the "cover": http://i.imgur.com/lEIxxVO.png
DookieLukie Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Just now, Fuzz said: Not real. Person who made the artwork clarified Just saw that. Oh well.

Guess there is a troll that would spend that much time and effort out there afterall.

Fuzz Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I do like the artwork though. Would have been happy with something like that. It's ... memorable.

WhiteTim Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Isn't that picture that's hanging on the wall of OTIS?
ElmoGreenDay Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 In the comment the OP said it wasn't real. Just a concept they made up.
tdlyon Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 I know it's not real but I actually think this is really cool. Would not mind it at all I especially love the font they used for the band name, would love for that to be their new one
Hermione Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Looks like a standard GDC album cover mock up . Also makes me realise that at this point it would just be boring if the name was actually Revolution Radio, I really hope it isn't.

inthehallwaynow Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 Plus the otis one has a different persons head on it. At least it seems that way to my eye.
