Green Day: Overachievers?

These days, most bands put out an album every two years or so. That gives them a year to tour, another year to make a new album, then back on tour again.

So it seems a little surprising that Green Day announced they're releasing three new albums in 2012 and early 2013.

According to a post on their website, the albums are being produced by the band’s long-time producer Rob Cavallo. ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, and ¡Tré! are being recorded in their hometown of Oakland, CA.

“We are at the most prolific and creative time in our lives. This is the best music we've ever written, and the songs just keep coming,” said the members of Green Day. “Instead of making one album, we are making a three album trilogy. Every song has the power and energy that represents Green Day on all emotional levels. We just can't help ourselves... We are going epic as f&#"."

The albums will be released by Reprise Records on Tuesday, September 25th 2012; Tuesday, November 13th 2012 and Tuesday, January 15th 2013.

A while back, Billie Joe Armstrong said the next album would not be political, but would instead be about sex. Other than that we don't have a lot of clues.

Check out this preview video..but you might want to keep the sound a little on the low side. As in their albums, the boys have a problem controlling their potty mouths.
