GREEN DAY Face A ‘DILEMMA’ On Third Pithy Piece From Forthcoming Album

Daily noise that works faster than any stimulant

8 December 2023

The veteran punk champs GREEN DAY have been producing rad riff-ripping anthems for almost 4 decades now (since 1987). And as American idiot Trump and his MAGA army are rearing their ugly heads again, actually for about 10 years, the always critically/politically loud and clear outspoken Californian trio can’t just go away and count their money.

And they don’t. As communicated a few weeks ago they have recorded their new,
14th, longplayer. It’s baptized SAVIOURS, and will be launched on 19 January 2024.

Ahead of it they just shared the 3rd track of the LP. DILEMMA is
out-and-out GD zing, although the song’s story isn’t a happy one.

Billie Joe Armstrong says, “‘Dilemma’ was one of those songs that was kind of easy to write because it was so personal to me. We’ve seen so many of our peers struggle with addiction and mental illness. This song is all about the pain that comes from those experiences. “Dilemma” is all about rehab and relapses, but it remembers to be a fun, catchy song, too.”

British Trippy Electro Pop Team SEA FEVER Have A New Order ‘DILEMMA’

Daily electricity to load your batteries

10 December 2022

Band: SEA FEVER (UK)
Who: A five-piece collective fronted by Iwan Gronow (Haven, Johnny Marr) on vocals and guitars, alongside singer Beth Cassidy (Section 25), New Order’s Tom Chapman (bass, guitars, synths and programming) and Phil Cunningham (guitars) and powering the band’s pulsing beats is Elliot Barlow.

“We’d wanted to work with each other for ages, so when we finally sat down in the studio, the band just seemed to come together naturally. It felt like we were really free to explore the kinds of music that have always inspired us, we dug right through the record crates of our minds to shape the sound of Sea Fever.”

Last year the band released their exellent debut longplayer FOLDING LINES.

New single: DILEMMA

TUTV: No it’s New Order, but Sea Fever soundshere like NO of the late 80s, early 90s (Technique/Republic ) and that’s totally fine by me. Trippy, synth-y, and catchy.

No, it’s not Peter Hook playing the short bass solo at the beginning, it’s NO’s current bassist Tom Chapman (who joined the new lineup in 2011) but it resonates like a tribute to Hooky. And’s totally fine by me.

Freak Le Chic-like guitar fragments, rotating beats, and vivid duet vocals – Iwan Grono and
Beth Cassidy – complete this 24-hour party people earworm. Ideal tune to dance to, along with their debut album, while you wave goodbye to 2022.
