Green Day has shared a new single and music video for “Dillema” – the third single from the group’s 14th studio album Saviors, due on January 19, 2024 via Reprise Records/Warner Music. The band debuted “The American Dream Is Killing Me” and “Look Ma, No Brains!” in October in Las Vegas at a surprise show at the 800-capacity Fremont and back-to-back headlining performances at When We Were Young festival. In addition to launching new singles, music videos, and the pre-orders for the new album, the band recently announced a huge tour with Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid, and others.

There will also be several exclusive vinyl versions of “Saviors” available including neon pink with neon green splatter, and black ice with hot pink splatter, with most in very limited supply and pressed only once.
“The American Dream Is Killing Me” was one of the last tracks written and recorded by Green Day for “Saviors”. “As soon we cut it, we said, ‘Okay, that’s going first,'” says Billie Joe Armstrong who describes the new song as “a look at the way the traditional American Dream doesn’t work for a lot of people — in fact, it’s hurting a lot of people.”
Recorded in London and Los Angeles, “Saviors” is the latest powerful collaboration between Green Day and Grammy-winning producer Rob Cavallo, whose notable previous work with Green Day includes two of the band’s most iconic albums, 1994’s “Dookie” and 2004’s “American Idiot”. The record comes just ahead of “Dookie”‘s 30th anniversary. Celebrations have already begun with the release of a massive deluxe edition of the album and a surprise show in Las Vegas where the band performed “Dookie” from front to back to a sold-out crowd of superfans.
Alongside the track, Green Day has unveiled a film noir inspired black-and-white music video featuring the band in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. The killer video was directed by Brendan Walter and Ryan Baxley and shot in Los Angeles.
