The Network | Money Money 2020 Part II: Told Ya So!
Green Day’s side project is back! The Network have unveiled an unexpected EP called Money Money 2020 Part II: Told Ya So! This marks the group’s first album in over 16 years. The new project follows their 2003 debut album Money Money. The Network’s latest work includes 25 songs, and it definitely shouts electronic-dystopian-futuristic.

Death Cab for Cutie | The Georgia

We strongly believe in the work Fair Fight has done to assure free and fair elections in Georgia and beyond and have been honored to assist them throughout the 2020 campaign,” said the band.

Greta Van Fleet | Age of Machine
Rock group Greta Van Fleet announced that their sophomore album The Battle of Garden’s State will be out on April 16, 2021. With the news came a new single from the forthcoming album. The track is called “Age of Machine.”
Greg Kurstin is behind the production of the album, who’s previously worked with Foo Fighters and Paul McCartney. Frontman Josh Kiszka admitted how beneficial it’s been working with Kurstin on their latest project. “I’m always a little bit hesitant about my abilities as an artist; I think a lot of artists feel that way. But Greg hovering over me while I’m on the piano, taking an interest in what I was doing – that was really important for me.”
The new single follows the band’s surprise track “My Way Too Soon,” which was released back in October. Hear “Age of Machine” below.
