Where Does a punk band go when they've realeased a mellower, quasi-acoustic album, a Greatest Hits package and a collection of B-sides? If you're Green Day, it's back to doing what they do best - recording an album of fine punk tunes. "I feel like the last record ("Warning") is so complete that to try to take over where that one left off would be kind of futile," says bassist, Mike Dirnt. "Right now we're at a really exciting, creatve place in our life, so I think that we've had a nice break from making hard and fast music has made us want to do it again. What once was old is now new again."

If that wasn't enough, Green Day have also been working with Iggy Pop on his new album - they appear on three tracks on the Igster's forthcoming upus, due later this year.
