Green Day premieres song, 'Cigarettes and Valentines,' live
Look for it on a forthcoming live album
Green Day's Billie Joe Aremstrong
Only four years after Green Day’s live album, “Bullet in a Bible,” it looks like the punk pop trio is ready to release a new concert album.
The group premiered a new song, “Cigarettes and Valentines,” during a tour stop in Denver, according to punknews, and added that they were recording a new live album.... or "live fucking album," as Billie Joe Armstrong declared.
“Cigarettes” was allegedly on Green Day’s lost--or should we say, stolen--album. As the well-known story goes, the master tapes for the follow-up to the band’s 2000 album, “Warning,” were nabbed. This was on of the songs supposedly on there. Instead of re-recording, the band wrote “American Idiot” instead. We never condone stealing of any kind, but thank you, thieves!
Check out the new song for yourself below.
