We’re just two weeks away from Green Day’s brand-new ‘Saviors’ album, and the band have today shared its final single.
The rip-roaring ‘One Eyed Bastard’ follows the forthcoming record’s lead single ‘The American Dream Is Killing Me’, ‘Look Ma, No Brains!’ and ‘Dilemma’.
Explaining some of the inspiration behind the tune and the themes it tackles, Billie Joe Armstrong has shared:
“Lyrically, I was just reflecting on bad times in life. That’s the thing about nostalgia, sometimes you think, ‘That was an awful time.’
“Everybody’s got that ugly place in their life where they have to deal with ugly thoughts – it could be like revenge or whatever. Thankfully, I have an outlet in songwriting.”
Have a listen to the new track via its animated video below.
Announcing the news on their socials, the band also added they have a very limited amount of signed CDs and new t-shirt and tri-coloured vinyls on their webstore.
2024 will see another huge year for Billie Joe and co., as they also head out on a world tour in support of their new album.
