Mah ha ha! Sometimes I kill myself with these post titles! But to the point!

Green Day have announced that they will be releasing their 5th studio,21st Century Breakdown,  album on May 15th this year. While I’m not terribly impressed with the fact that the first single was introduced via a sell-out cross promotion with the NCAA (story via Stereogum), and the single itself, at least the first 90 seconds, don’t make me feel, move, nor think, I am still excited about the upcoming  album… here’s why:

Green Day is politically charged: American Idiot and contemplative:  Wake Me Up When September Ends

They’re rebellious and good for moshing to: Minority (Do people still mosh these days?) and, they make me feel sentimental: Time of your Life

marching out of time
to my own beat now
the only way i know

I so know how you feel!! Rock on, my favourite trio from Berkeley!

And lastly, I’m looking forward to the next Green Day release because they’re crazy: Basket Case
