Green Day have come good on their teaser from earlier this week, revealing an expansive deluxe edition of their fifth album, ‘Nimrod’ – dubbed ‘Nimrod XXV’ – alongside a previously unreleased demo from its recording sessions.The drop comes exactly 25 years since the band released ‘Nimrod’ – the follow-up to 1995’s ‘Insomniac’ (for which Green Day also released a quarter-centennial edition) first hit shelves on October 14, 1997. It spawned four singles: ‘Hitchin’ A Ride’, ‘Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)’, ‘Redundant’ and ‘Nice Guys Finished Last’.The original album sported 18 tracks (tying it with 2009’s ‘21st Century Breakdown’ as Green Day’s longest), but a Japanese edition featured a bonus song called ‘Desensitized’, while an Australian version also featured the demos ‘Suffocate’, ‘Do Da Da’ and ‘You Lied’.
None of those latter three songs appear on the new edition of ‘Nimrod’, but it does feature ‘Desensitized’, as well demos for seven songs that didn’t make the cut for its original release.Two of those – ‘You Irritate Me’ and ‘Tre Polka’ – have never before been shared with the public. Green Day changed that today (October 14) for ‘You Irritate Me’, dropping it alongside the details for ‘Nimrod XXV’.
Have a listen below:In addition to the original album’s 18 tracks and the aforementioned eight demos, ‘Nimrod XXV’ features a cover of Elvis Costello’s 1977 song ‘Alison’, plus a full, 20-track live album recorded at the Electric Factory in Philadelphia on November 14, 1997.‘Nimrod XXV’ will be out on January 27. Alongside its digital release will be CD and vinyl boxsets – three discs for the former and five for the latter – that also include a 20-page booklet, cloth patch and commemorative backstage pass.
