September has officially ended, which can only mean one thing: Green Day is awake.
On Sunday, October 1, the “American Idiot” trio launched a new website, TheAmericanDreamIsKillingMe.com, which features a video of frontman Billie Joe Armstrong waking up to the sounds of a muffled guitar riff. As he sits up in bed, he looks at his calendar and sees the date Tuesday, October 24, circled.
Green Day had previously set up the website IsGreenDayAwake.com, which now simply declares, “Yes.” Back when it was still September, the site gave you negative answers such as, “Still no.”
So, is The American Dream Is Killing Me the name of the next Green Day album? It looks like we’ll find out October 24, which notably comes after Green Day’s headlining sets at the When We Were Young festival, taking place October 21-22 in Las Vegas.
Green Day’s most recent album is 2020’s Father of All… The group also just put out a 30th anniversary reissue of their 1994 breakout album, Dookie.
