Green Day have soundtracked a new short skate film called ‘Monsters and Saviors’ – check it out below.The 11-minute film was edited and directed by Russell Houghten and was a collaboration between the band and Monster Energy, which sees a huge skate crew assemble to celebrate the band bringing their ‘Saviors’ tour across North America.The tour is celebrating the band’s new album of the same name, which was released in January, as well as the 30th anniversary of their seminal album ‘Dookie’ and 20th anniversary of the equally seminal ‘American Idiot’.

In reference, the film uses one track from each album – ‘Longview’ from ‘Dookie’, the title track from ‘American Idiot’ and ‘Bobby Sox’ from ‘Saviors’.“There’s no denying Green Day’s legacy in the skate scene is anything less than iconic,” said Monster in a statement. “So, to celebrate The Saviors Tour, it was only right to drop a skate film, soundtracked by classics from Dookie and American Idiot and (a future classic) from their new album Saviors.”Appearing in the film are 2024 Olympic bronze medalist Nyjah Huston, Jake Yanko, Giovanni Vianna, Gabriel Fortunato, Filipe Mota, Jhancarlos Gonzalez, Fabiana Delfino, Liam Pace, Kieran Woolley, Matt Berger, Tom Schaar, Ruby Lilley, Yam Behar, Rune Glifberg, Trey Wood, Elliot Sloan, Moto Shibata, Cocona Hiraki and Edouard Damestoy.Check it out belowIn a five-star review of Green Day’s ‘Saviors’ tour in Manchester back in June, NME wrote: “With Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, The Smashing Pumpkins and Weezer all playing UK shows over the month, it’s an understatement to say rock fans are spoilt for choice.

The pick of the bunch, however, might just be Green Day’s ‘Saviors’ tour: combining class, youthfulness and scruffy punk anthems into.
