[originally published 10/09/07](antiMusic) In bitter turn of irony Green Day's Billy Joe Armstrong finds the current scene stagnant making the recording of their new album difficult. The irony comes from the fact that most "emo" groups are built around imitations of Armstrong's nasal vocal style. Gigwise has the report: Green Day have a huge 45 songs primed and ready to record for their new album – but say they're finding it hard to draw inspiration from the current 'stagnant' music scene.
Peter Pan-esque frontman Billie Joe Armstrong explains that the band are in the midst of a chaotic writing process in studios in Oakland and California, and that they hope to whittle down the songs soon. "We've been doing this for 20 years now. You want to make sure you're being honest with yourself. I also have to ask myself 'what's real out there?' Right now, it seems stagnant." - more on this story
