A New York radio host has said Green Day’s new single sounds like their classic album, ‘Dookie’.
The first new music from the Californian punk band since 2012 album ‘¡Tré!’ is set to be released on August 11 and is called ‘Bang Bang’.
Nik Rivers from New York station 107.7FM has already heard the track and described it as being for fans of “the early, punky Green Day”.
“If you are a fan of the early, punky Green Day, you will LOVE the new song ‘Bang Bang’,” he wrote according to Upset.
“And when I say early, think ‘Dookie’, but not ‘When I Come Around’ ‘Dookie’, but more ‘Welcome To Paradise’, ‘Burnout’ & ‘Chump’ ‘Dookie’… with hints of ‘Kerplunk’ & the rawness of ’39 Smooth’.”
Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong announced the band would be releasing new music recently by posting on Instagram.
He wrote: ”Dear friends! green day is putting out a new single called ”BANG BANG” August 11. stay tuned for more details.. photo by Frank Maddocks (sic).”
