Getting the band back together seems a perilous task. Especially if you’re punks, like Green Day – roughly 12 albums past the batting average for even titans of the genre. A self-declared return to form, Saviors finds the band reuniting with producer Rob Cavallo, who helped forge their early hits. Green Day have technically been ploughing their furrow this whole time, delivering Jansport-doodled Socialism over the same power chords that made them Serena Williams’s favourite band to serve to. Alas, not much new is served up here. The opening riff of lead single One Eyed Bastard sounds strangely similar to that of So What by P!nk, and the 15 tracks are at once momentary and interminable; lyrically indignant yet thematically confused. American Idiot, their mainstream breakthrough, was anti-establishment while also being palatable enough to be turned into a Broadway musical. This time, Armstrong spends his time ranting about TikTok, Fentanyl and Uber…which resonates about as convincingly as Doctor Evil doing the Macarena.
