Green Day had a huge undertaking with their recently released trilogy of albums, ¡UNO!, ¡DOS!, and ¡TRE! (click on each album for our individual review). Not only did they have to produce a quality record at their age (because let’s be honest, bands like this do generally get worse with age), they had to produce three of them. Green Day wanted to take a more relaxed approach to writing this record, and didn’t want to create huge concepts like their last two albums, but instead they just increased the scope by giving themselves the task of keeping the …

ALBUM REVIEW: Green Day – ¡Tré!
December 11th, 2012 Josh Hammond Artist: Green Day
Album: ¡Tre!
Genre: Punk(ish)
Realistically speaking, following my first listen to ¡Tré!, the third installment of the latest Green Day trilogy, I should have rejoiced with a sizable party of family and friends. Having embraced and approved of all 12 of the tracks on the album, I honestly should be god damned overjoyed. I probably should have celebrated the return of the Green Day of old with a Macy’s Day Parade (see what I did there?). Yet, in the long run, I have stumbled away from this album with more questions for Green Day than answers …

WATCH: Green Day Release ‘¡Quatro!’ Clip
November 26th, 2012 Anthony Galasso Green Day recently announced that they would be releasing a documentary entitled ¡Quatro! about the making of their most recent trilogy, ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tre!.
A clip of the documentary has surfaced showing Billy Jo Armstrong surfing as well as the band playing live.
“I think sometimes taking time off feels dangerous to me because I just like playing music, it’s just what I like to do. I’m addicted to it. And what I’ve noticed what happens to bands that ‘take time off’ — they’re not as good when they come back,” Armstrong mentions in the clip below. …
Green Day Announce ‘¡Quatro!’, Continue Streak Of Clever Titles
November 21st, 2012 Dan Bogosian Well, at least we know Green Day can count better than U2. After ¡Uno, ¡Dos!, ¡Tre! (not to be confused with tres), the band has now announced plans for a documentary on the making of the trilogy of records, and titled it ¡Quatro!. Bassist Mike Dirnt said “¡Quatro! brings our fans one step closer by giving them even more access and revealing what it was like for us to make these records.”
Parts of the documentary will be shown on VH1 on November 28. The conclusion to the album trilogy, ¡Tre!, will be released …

November 13th, 2012 Kriston McConnell You can now stream the very first single from Green Day‘s upcoming album ¡Tre!, the track is titled “Drama Queen”.

As of right now ¡Tre! is expected to be released December 11 which is a little over a month sooner than the original scheduled release date.
Check below to stream “Drama Queen”. If you like what you hear, you can pre-order ¡Tre! through iTunes…
REVIEW: Green Day – Dos!
November 12th, 2012 Josh Hammond Artist: Green Day
Album: Dos!
Genre: Punk(?)
In a perfect world there would be no pillars to fall from. Expectations would be modest and reasonable, directed to the task at hand. Take for example Green Day, who has spent the last 18 years living in the shadow of their best-selling album Dookie. The trio honestly shouldn’t be held to unrealistic expectations of recreating this iconic album. I mean, life happens right? Over the course of two decades people undoubtedly grow up, and their influences and inspirations shift. So logically, Billie Joe and company should in no way be …

WATCH: Green Day Has a Meltdown
September 22nd, 2012 Dan Bogosian Recently at a music festival, Green Day‘s set was cut short so that Usher could have an additional 20 minutes in his. Band leader Billie Joe Armstrong did not take too kindly to this.
Watch the tantrum after the jump. In the comments, tell us what you think: is this an overreaction on par with Kanye West’s Bonnaroo disaster, or is this just punk rock at its finest?

Green Day Release “Kill The DJ” Video
September 2nd, 2012 James Shotwell Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong may be in the hospital, but that is not preventing Green Day from keeping the promotional train rolling with the debut of a brand new music video.
We hated it when it leaked a few weeks back, but “Kill The DJ” is back once more as the second single to surface off the first in a trio of releases from the pop punk pioneers. The track follows the melancholy “Oh Love” with something much, much worse. Seriously, this song is shit. The video, however, is something worth enjoying. Click past the jump and see for yourself.…
