Earlier today, Green Day released the official video for the single on YouTube. The video, directed by Brendan Walter and Ryan Baxley, is sort of a noir-inspired film that features the band in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. The band's frontman Billie Joe Armstrong, while talking about the newly-released single, said, “As soon we cut it, we said, ‘Okay, that’s going first.’” He further described it as “a look at the way the traditional American Dream doesn’t work for a lot of people – in fact, it’s hurting a lot of people.”
Saviors was first teased by Green Day last week when they debuted the unreleased song at an intimate show held in a 1,000-capacity Fremont Country Club venue, in Las Vegas. However, they made the song public during their headline performance at the When We Were Young festival. The album which is set to release next year will be available in multiple formats and limited edited vinyl colourways, according to NME. Green Day have teamed up with Grammy-winning producer Rob Cavallo, who notably worked with them on their iconic albums- Dookie (1994) and American Idiot (2004).
