Green Day have appeared to tease a new announcement for later this month.

The East Bay rockers made good use of the memes which circulate at the start of October referencing their Wake Me Up When September ends single, by using it to tease to something later this month.

Taking to social media, a video shared by the rockers captioned: "It's October 1st, WAKE UP now go hit snooze on theamericandreamiskillingme.com".

The clip itself sees frontman Billie Joe Armstrong being woken up in bed by an alarm set to 10:24, before he hits the snooze button.

The camera than cuts to a calendar on the wall, which has some notes on it, including "WAKE ME UP!!" on the 1st October.

The 24th day of the month is circled in red pencil, suggesting that a big announcement is coming on that day.

The website's snooze button opens up a registration form for fans, so they can can be the first to find out what the band have in store.

Meanwhile, last month saw Green Day announce their plans to celebrate the release of their Dookie album with a new reissue.

Their seminal third studio album - which was first released on 1st February 1994 and included likes of Basket Case, When I Come Around and Welcome To Paradise - will be re-iussed with live recordings, demos, album outtakes and more on 29th September 2023.
