Rolling Stone has published the results of the magazine's latest poll where its readers counted down the ten best songs of 2016. Green Day's "Bang Bang" has landed on the list at #6, ahead of songs from Beyoncé, Twenty One Pilots, and Beck, to name a few.

After three years away, Green Day returned with the gut-punching, raucous "Bang Bang," the lead single off their recent album Revolution Radio. Written from the perspective of a mass shooter, the band gets back to their punk roots and politically charged later years as they address American gun culture with passion and aggression.
