Well a sexual song won't get to the radio.

That's so wrong, there's many sexual songs on the radio.

I was bored

Bang bang there goes your heart 
Back, back seat of my car 
Wait a minute lemme take you there 
Wait a minute till ya 

 

(i knowwww... its stolen.. but it COULD be Green Day lyrics... just imagine a nice guitar riff xD)

Hmmm... I can already see it on my iTunes

BANG BANG

I think you still hit the nail on the head. There aren't really any other viable combinations of "rev" and "rad". Revolution Radio just makes sense for a political album. I think it sounds pretty bad ass.

Trust me, I'd love if it was the title! It sounds like a Clash album

I know right. But they should sing something like "let me blow your whistle" instead of "cause I bang banged your mom"

[Tubbie Head]

I think it's time for GDC to have a new logo that says Revolution Radio on it before they announce the album...

What's stolen? I wen't back to the Nimrod era Green Day style haha.

I think "Revolution Radio" is a very cliché, try hard album title.. BUT so is "Bang Bang".

If they do it right, they can pull it off and make them worthy.

Am i the only one who thinks there's a high possibility that it's gonna be a concept album?? 

[kripack]

Well, that's a weird way to announce a lead single on the official web site...

Yeah, Revolution Radio at least sounds good and looks nice written. Can't say that about Bang Bang. It had better be good.

I feel the same way. Except I do think that with the right artwork and the right lyrics, it could be meaningful and pulled off.

Let's be honest here, Revolution Radio is (maybe alongside Revolver Radio, but I'm not a big fan of that one) probably the only serious and possible option there.

The other combinations are ridiculous.

Bleh. Also hope they aren't coming back to the red and black combo.

What??? Red and black is badass. Though so far is seems to be black and white, which I'm also cool with.

Looks like they are... not that I'm against it. I think a part if me just wanted a more significant visual style change

I'd dislike it for the same reason. 

[Steven Seagull]

I liked the trilogy theme more. Full of colors.

Exactly.

I think it's likely due to the fact that their hand was forced - they had to announce something, but weren't yet ready for a proper big press release.  Something more... informative... will probably follow soon.

I'd definitely prefer if they used different colors because it's better if the visual style doesn't remind AI too much. Especially if it's a political album.
