Green Day have announced the soundtrack to the upcoming movie NIMRODS, and have unleashed the new single “I’m Never Gonna R.I.P.”
The comedy film centers on three friends in a garage band who venture on a road trip with the belief that they’re opening for Green Day at a New Year’s Eve gig in Los Angeles. The movie, which hits theaters on August 14th, was co-produced by Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tré Cool.
The NIMRODS soundtrack, which arrives July 31st (pre-order here), contains 30 tracks of mostly Green Day songs, as well a few tunes by the aforementioned fictional band Analog Dogs, along with cuts from The Paradox, Ultra Q, and actress Mckenna Grace, who co-stars in the film.
“I’m Never Gonna R.I.P.” has a 1950s rock ‘n’ roll vibe in the vein of Elvis Presley, Bill Haley & His Comets, and Chuck Berry. It marks the first new Green Day music since 2024’s Saviors album.
Heavy Consequence spoke with Green Day bassist Mike Dirnt in late 2025, and he told us of the film, “It’s got a lot of heart. It’s triumphant, it’s hilarious, and it’s got some really heartfelt moments in there, too… It basically follows the story of a band and their adventures trying to get across the country to open for us. And they mimic adventures that actually happened to us, and things that actually happened to us when we were touring in vans back in the day.”
