In a new interview on KROQ, GREEN DAY frontman Billie Joe Armstrong talked about the current state of rock music.
He said:
“I think that it’s lost its attitude in a lot of ways. I think that a lot of – me included – we’re guilty of rock music trying to write the feel-good song of the year, in a lot of ways.
“And it’s, like, nobody wants to feel good, I think rock music is supposed to make you feel bad, like, a bad motherf*cker, as they say. And that’s kind of what we’re going for on the next thing, just, like, let’s give a big kick in the a*s to rock and roll.”
