Green Day, Fall Out Boy and Weezer have announced they are going on tour together - as well as releasing new albums.

The Hella Mega Tour will see all three bands head out on a world tour next year.

Green Day's album, titled Father of All, will be the band's first full-length record since their 2016 album Revolution Radio.

The title track has been released as the band's first single, and the full album will be released on February 7 next year.

this record is The New! soul, Motown, glam and manic anthemic. Punks, freaks and punishers! The Dirty messy . The Stink. , The lyrics are like a party and lifestyle of not giving a fuck. The life AND death of the party. Not political. Surviving in chaos. The real shit. Me @mikedirnt and @trecool of the Green Day cut through the bullshit. That’s how it’s always been for us. Everything else is fake. Frauds I tell ya!! Rock has lost its balls. We’re gonna teabag all these mother fuckers.

Fall Out Boy have released a new song called Dear Future Self (Hands Up) ahead of their upcoming album Greatest Hits: Believers Never Die – Volume Two, slated for release on November 15.

Weezer dropped a new song called End of The Game. Their new album Van Weezer is "tentatively slated" for release on May 15, 2020, adding to their two albums already put out this year, reports Pitchfork.

Each of the three bands uploaded sketch video to announce their tour, which was posted to their YouTube channel.
