Rock Sound Magazine has featured Green Day on the cover of their latest issue, which hits newsstands tomorrow, August 15th.

In Rock Sound Issue 165 we sit down with Green Day to find out if they can make musical history with the release of three separate albums in the space of four months. Icons, rockstars or nutters? We find out in our 8-page cover feature with the world's biggest punk rock band.

Scans of the issue are in our Articles section and can be read by clicking here. The article focuses quite a bit on the idea behind the decision to release three albums and how it's something that's has never been done before. The main theme of the article is "fuck it, let's just do it and have fun!"

The article's author, Ryan Bird, had this to say after he listened to the three albums:

As the music hits - an electric blend of songs that are sometimes vast, often ambitious and at times strangely urgent - it's an experience that quickly becomes intense in a very different, very exciting way. It's ¡Uno! that grabs the attention most. A direct and largely fast-paced affair, it possesses the same raw ingredients present in some of the band's finest moments of old.




Thanks to Walking Contradiction on the forum for the heads up. And thanks to VivaRomy for the scans!
