Green Day on the “bummer” of their pre-‘American Idiot’ album ‘Cigarettes & Valentines’ being stolen

Green Day have reflected on the “bummer” of their pre-‘American Idiot’ album ‘Cigarettes & Valentines’ being stolen more than 20 years ago, while also noting that it was a “blessing” in disguise.The unreleased record was written and recorded in 2003, but the master tapes were stolen when it was close to being finished.Instead of being the follow-up to 2000’s ‘Warning’, they released their seminal ‘American Idiot’ in 2004.“They were just gone,” said Tré Cool of the ‘Cigarettes And Valentines’ recordings in a new interview with Audacy, “so somebody probably stole them – maybe didn’t know what was on them”.“I’ve never heard that ever happening to anybody,” added frontman Billie Joe Armstrong. “It was a bummer, for sure.

Green Day: “If you’re finding your music via algorithms then that’s just lazy”

Green Day have criticised the notion of finding new music “via algorithms”, such as on TikTok, as “lazy”.The legendary rock trio have said in a new interview that they think listeners can miss out on a broader spectrum of new music if they’re reliant on social media to discover emerging artists.“Social media is great for kids but if you’re finding your music via algorithms then that’s just lazy,” bassist Mike Dirnt told The Sun. “I like to organically find new things. All I can say is just clear your search history to find new [stuff].”“I was told that ‘Brain Stew’ was a sudden popular thing on TikTok with a lot of hip-hop kids dancing to it.

Green Day performs surprise acoustic set in NYC subway with Jimmy Fallon

Green Day put the rock back in Rockefeller Center when it teamed up with NBC’s “Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon to serenade straphangers at the 47-50th Street station in Midtown Manhattan around 8 p.m.The pop-punk band and the talk show host launched into a platform performance that included their tunes “Basket Case” and “American Idiot” as well as the Kiss hit “Rock and Roll All Nite.”Fallon and band members Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool emerged disguised, sporting phony beards and performing a cover of Bad Company’s “I Feel Like Making Love.”But the fakeout didn’t last long, as Fallon ripped off his disguise and introduced the band, which is set to release its 14th studio album, entitled “Saviors,” on Friday.Throngs of commuters and fans who’d caught wind of the secret show ahead of time crowded the makeshift stage as the band launched into their famous tunes — many of them jumping up and down, singing every word and taking cellphone footage.The action was caught and shared to X by Post editor Mark Lungariello as he was leaving the newsroom.Some days commuting are more interesting than others.

Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello responds to critics of Green Day changing ‘American Idiot’ lyrics

Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello has responded to those criticising Green Day for recently switching up their lyrics.The moment came after the pop-punk trio – comprised of Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool – made headlines for their controversial performance at Dick Clarke’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve last week.During the set, the frontman altered the lyrics to the iconic 2004 track ‘American Idiot’, replacing the original line “I’m not a part of a redneck agenda” with “I’m not a part of the MAGA agenda”.The song, initially written as a diss against George W. Bush, instead made a shot at former US President Donald Trump, making reference to his presidential rally slogan, “Make America Great Again” (MAGA).Unsurprisingly, the moment at the New Year’s Eve show went on to spur some backlash for the members, with Tesla founder and tech billionaire Elon Musk criticising the move on X/Twitter, writing: “Green Day goes from raging against the machine to milquetoastedly raging for it.”The decision to change up the line also warranted a segment on Fox News, with hosts reportedly suggesting that “people are so sick of being preached at about politics from rock bands”.“Stick to what you’re good at.
