The rumors were finally confirmed by Shirley Manson of Garbage. Producer Butch Vig, behind Nirvana’s Nevermind, Smashing Pumpkins’ Siamese Dream and AFI’s Sing The Sorrow is producing the follow-up to Green Day’s American Idiot album.

Writing for the album is confirmed by Reprise to be happening in an East Bay studio. They are under disguise as the Foxboro Hot Tubs.
