Which song was the lead single from Revolution Radio?

“Bang Bang” was the lead single from Green Day’s 2016 album Revolution Radio.

Released on August 11, 2016, “Bang Bang” introduced the album’s return to a more direct, guitar-driven punk-rock sound after the sprawling ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, ¡Tré! trilogy. Billie Joe Armstrong described the song as a response to mass-shooting culture in the United States combined with the narcissism of social media.

The album produced three singles: “Bang Bang,” the title track “Revolution Radio,” and “Still Breathing.” The common mix-up is treating the title song as the lead single because it shares the album’s name; however, “Revolution Radio” was released second, on September 9, 2016. “Still Breathing” followed on September 23. The album arrived on October 7 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
