Here’s how you can listen to Green Day’s new album Saviors almost a week early

Green Day are currently in the news this week for winding up Trump supporters, but may we remind you that they also have a fantastic new album, Saviors, coming out extremely soon (January 19, to be precise).

And the trio have just confirmed that you can hear their new record – the follow-up to 2020’s Father Of All… – almost a week ahead of release, by heading to various indie record stores across the globe for free listening parties.

“Soooo who wants to hear Saviors before its out?!” they ask. “Lucky for you we’re making it happen. Stop by one of the participating indie record stores around the country and the world starting on January 13!

“Listening parties are free and have exclusive giveaways (while supplies last). Did we mention you’ll get to hear the whole damn album in its entirety before it’s out!!!”

Head here to find out which record stores are participating near you.

In our world-exclusive interview with the band in the latest print issue – which you can buy now – Green Day excitedly teased all things Saviors, with bassist Mike Dirnt explaining: “I can hear bits of each album on this record, even though it sounds fresh and new. I feel like if there’s any words that always come back to Green Day, it’s energy and melody – and this record has all those things in abundance.”
