[newsImage]020410_nmeinterview-grammypost.jpg[/newsImage]NME.com has posted a new interview with Green Day entitled, "What Rock'N'Roll Has Taught Us". In the band takes you through some of the recording of 21st Century Breakdown along with what life was like for the band as children.
When things were getting a little difficult during the recording of 21st Century Breakdown, Butch [Vig] helped us a lot. He brought this great sense of calm, but was totally enthusiastic at the same time. Half the job of a producer is to be an adviser and say, "Look, I know you've heard this song 13,000 times in a row but it's still as good as it was the first time you heard it". There were times when we definitely needed that. -- Billie Joe Armstrong

The interview covers a bunch of topics and it is a really great read. At the very bottom of the interview, NME has also included a few interesting facts about the band.
