Green Day Confirm Collaboration With Nirvana Producer Butch Vig

Green Day appear to have confirmed reports which suggested Butch Vig was producing their new album.

In a post on YouTube, the band have published a video which shows singer Billie Joe Armstrong and Vig together under the heading: “Green Day & Butch Vig working on Studio for new...”

Last week, former Garbage singer Shirley Manson reaffirmed existing reports about the collaboration during an appearance on  Last Call With Carson Daly.

Asked by the host whether she planned to record with Garbage again, Manson replied: "I don't know, to be honest. We're sort of doing our different things.

"I'm doing the TV show, Butch is producing Green Day, so he's busy, so we'll see."
