Cigarettes And Valentines
''Cigarettes and Valentines'' is an unreleased studio album by American rock band Green Day. The album would have been the follow-up to '' Warning'' (2000). In 2003, the album was nearly finished when the master tapes were mysteriously stolen from the band's studio. Instead of re-recording the album, the band decided to start from scratch, leading to the creation of '' American Idiot'' (2004). In an interview with '' NME'' on November 18, 2016, Armstrong and Dirnt stated that the master tapes are being used for new songs. History Lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong said the album's material was "good stuff".

Bassist Mike Dirnt described the band's decision of returning t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
