After the massive success of Green Day’s album, American Idiot in 2004, I bet many people are wondering where have the punk rocking trio been hiding all these days.

It seems they’ve been hiding under a totally new band, the Foxboro Hot Tubs! Check out this page if you don’t know who they are.

The new album will be called Stop Drop and Roll and will be released, no, not next year or next month but in a matter of a few days!! It will be released on May 20th. You can pre-order it here at Amazon.

It has been confirmed that Green Day will be releasing their new album under the name of Foxboro Hot Tubs and after the release of American Idiot, four years ago, fans can be rest assured that this album will be just as amazing. Green Day have been in the music industry since 1987, just over 20 years and still going strong.

The band consists of Billie Joe Armstrong who is on vocals/guitar, Mike Dirnt (guitar, vocals, percussion) and Tre Cool (percussion/drums). Green Day’s touring friends, Jason White, Jason Freese and Kevin Preston are also part of the Foxboro Hot Tubs.

Green Day haven’t changed their band name, but the Foxboro Hot Tubs are merely a side project for them to work on. The lead vocalist, Billie Joe Armstrong is also a guitarist and vocalist for the punk rock band Pinhead Gunpowder.

The band has sold over 65 million records worldwide and they also have 3 Grammy awards for Best Alternative Album for Dookie, Best Rock Album for American Idiot, and Record of the Year for “Boulevard of Broken Dreams”. They also performed the theme song for The Simpsons Movie.

Green Day began in 1987 and first got their breakthrough success with their album, Dookie, which was released in 1994. It was recorded in just 3 weeks and attracted attention from many people. They gained popularity very quickly and the album, Dookie, won the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Album and the band was nominated for 9 MTV Video Music Awards including Video of the Year.

There are also rumours that Green Day are scheduled to release three albums this summer, as themselves this time. I can tell their new albums to come will be a huge success aswell as the Foxboro Hot Tubs.
