SINGLES COLLECTION WILL FEATURE TWO NEW SONGS;
DVD CONTAINING ALL THE BAND'S VIDEOS
SET FOR SIMULTANEOUS RELEASE
"Maria" and "Poprocks & Coke" are the two new songs featured on GREEN DAY's November 13 release INTERNATIONAL SUPERHITS (Reprise). Recorded in Oakland in early September with producer Jerry Finn, these songs sit alongside 19 of the band's most popular tracks on this singles collection charting the group's evolution.

Since the 1989 release of their 1000 Hours EP, BILLIE JOE, TRE COOL and MIKE DIRNT have been known for their own brand of punk rock with soaring pop hooks and probing lyrics about people whose lives have gone off the rails but whom still manage to hold on.
Beginning with the breakthrough debut single "Longview," the songs on INTERNATIONAL SUPERHITS will represent each of the band's multi-platinum or platinum Reprise albums: 1994's DOOKIE, 1995's INSOMNIAC, 1997's NIMROD and 2000's WARNING. Other songs appearing on SUPERHITS include "Basketcase," "Brain Stew," "Time Of Your Life" and "Minority"–all of which have defined the modern rock radio era.
