Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong said: "American Idiot marked a really high bar for us. It's easy to go, 'OK, we can just write a collection of songs'. But there was something about trying to keep going for it."

The band also revealed that they plan to play the new album in its entirety during a world tour this summer, although dates have yet to be announced. /how to play the guitar/
