Green Day side-project The Coverups announce 2025 London show
Surprise! Billie Joe Armstrong will be back in London next month for another special show with his side-project The Coverups.
Green Day gave their new single Father Of All… its TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Continuing their promotion for the epic Hella Mega Tour, last week Green Day hit Jimmy Kimmel Live! following Fall Out Boy and Weezer's appearances the previous nights.
The Bay Area punk rock heroes performed their brand-new single Father Of All… during the show, with a slightly more toned down – but no less awesome – set than Fall Out Boy's ice cream-themed get-up the evening before.
Father Of All… is taken from Green Day's forthcoming album of the same next, due out next February. When asked by Kerrang! about the title of the follow-up to 2016's Revolution Radio (its longer name being Father Of All Mother Fuckers), frontman Billie Joe Armstrong enthused: “It’s just a badass title! I think it was Kerry King from Slayer – they have an album called God Hates Us All, and someone asked, ‘Do you really think God hates us all?’ And he goes, ‘I don’t know! It’s just a badass title!’ (Laughs) As soon as the title came up, I was like, ‘Oh man, this is good.’”
