Revolution Radio

But Green Day would eventually return, and once again, they would find a way forward.

In 2016, Green Day returned with Revolution Radio.

And the band sounds focused, confident, and comfortable combining the aggression of the early work with the melodic sophistication of its later albums.

Bang Bang is a ferocious opening statement.

Beautiful piano-driven song that demonstrates Billy Joe's range as a songwriter.

Ex-Kid from Trey, an emotional melodic standout from the trilogy era that deserves another listen.

Forever Now from Revolution Radio.

Ambitious, multi-part songwriting and recalls the scope of American Idiot.

... like, uh, [bass guitar playing] there's a little more [bass guitar playing] I give a little bit of that.

So just say we're going over to there, and I want something, uh, um, uh, playing Rev Rad, uh, Revolution Radio.

Um [bass guitar playing] Da, da, da, da, de.

Do, do, do, do, do.

Also a concept album, punk rock opera, but sans all of the politics.

And then Revolution Radio, a politics album, but sans any kind of specific point it's trying to make.

The whole album is just kind of like...

All of the lyrics are just kind of directionless sloganeering.

Oh, no.

These albums were followed by Revolution Radio, 2016, their third to debut at number one on the Billboard 200, Father of All MFers, 2020, and Saviors, 2024.

So I think Revolution Radio...

Which one of these...

I remember hearing a Green Day song at some point, and I don't know if it was 2020 or 2016...
