¡Dos! is the upcoming tenth studio album by the American punk rock band Green Day and it is set to be released on November 13, 2012. It will be the second of three albums in the ¡Uno! ¡Dos! ¡Tré! trilogy.
Recording and release
Recording for the album was done during the same sessions as ¡Uno! and ¡Tré!, the other albums in the trilogy. A trailer for the album was released on June 21, 2012 on the band's YouTube channel, it included a preview of the song "It's Fuck Time".[1] A preview of the song "Lazy Bones" was featured in a special Green Day themed level pack of Angry Birds Friends. Green Day also released previews of the songs "Makeout Party", "Wild One", "It's Fuck Time", "Lady Cobra" and "Nightlife" during an interview on BBC Radio One.[2] A very short preview of the song See You Tonight was featured in one of their tour videos.
Theme and composition
Billie Joe Armstrong stated in an interview that ¡Dos! was going to have a more "garage rock" feel to it, similar to their side band Foxboro Hot Tubs. The band has taken the song "It's Fuck Time" originally intended as a Foxboro Hot Tubs release and placed it on the album.
Unlike the first album of the trilogy, this album will feature thirteen tracks. The thirteenth track "Amy" is dedicated to the late Amy Winehouse. The song "Nightlife" features artist Lady Cobra from the band Mystic Knights of the Cobra. The song is one of the slower and darker songs from the trilogy and has Lady Cobra rapping in her respective parts of the track.
