Green Day will be unloading a whole lot of new material this fall.
The band have already announced plans for the release of their forthcoming album trilogy: ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, and ¡Tré! will be released in stages, on September 25th 2012, November 13th 2012 and January 15th 2013 respectively.
In the span of four months, that’s three full albums….but that’s not all.
Billboard reports the band will issue two documentaries to complement the trilogy.
Filmmakers Tim Lynch and Tim Wheeler are creating a documentary on the making of the band's upcoming three albums, while a second film is being created from vintage footage from their pre-"Dookie" days.
Billie Joe Armstrong tells Billboard.com that "the two Tims" have shot the band performing in clubs, rehearsing and recording over the last year and a half.
"It's not going to be the sitting down, head shot of me going, 'We started out blah blah blah'," Armstrong says. "We wanted to get into lifestyles of rock 'n' roll and playing rock n roll and letting the story kind of tell itself rather than create revisionist (history)."

"Oh Love," the first single from "Uno!", will be released July 16.
