Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong tells us why their new song “was like a unicorn falling out of the sky' and previews their massive tour with Weezer and Fall Out Boy

“I knew I wanted to do something different,” says Billie Joe Armstrong. He’s talking about his search for a new sound after 2016’sgot back on their feet after the messiest period of their career. Armstrong ­wanted to find a way to incorporate the soul-music phase he was going through, which ranged from Smokey Robinson to Amy Winehouse.

Then it happened: Armstrong was at his home in Newport Beach, California, jamming with drummer Tre Cool, when Cool started playing “a nasty fucking beat.” Armstrong thought of a title: “Father of All Motherfuckers,” which he crafted into a Sixties-style dance-party jam that has him kicking his voice into a Prince-inspired falsetto. “I told my engineer, ‘I might look like a fucking idiot, but bear with me,’” says Armstrong.

GreenDay Lo máximo! 💚🎶🤘🏻

GreenDay SOLO GreenDay Shows? 😱💚💚💚 When & Where plzzzzz ?!

GreenDay So you saying Green Day will have solo shows before Hella Mega?

GreenDay Tré is so quiet these days.

Why did you ape the White Stripe on Kimmel? Sounded nothing like Green Day, and it took 6 guys to sound like Meg and Jack. Great song, but, just..... GreenDay

i saw the date and it’s like next year 👎🏻

It had better be good! Waited a long time for it. American Idiot has to be their defining sound, against which all others are judged.

Big fkn deal.B O R I N G....

Sounds pretty amazing GreenDay

Desperately clinging to youth through immaturity and pandering to kids is sad to watch...used to like this band

Because they want to sell records. You say you hate the President you just lost half of the country to market the album too.

Because Trump is still after everything the president and the Democratic circus clown bus isn’t looking so good.

Because you can only say ‘the sky is falling’ so many times?

I thought Green Day split up. Or was that wishful thinking about one less fifty year old shitty pop punk band...?
