"21 Guns" is the 2nd single from Green Day, the pop-punk masters' 8th studio album, "21st Century Breakdown" gets an appropriately dramatic, melancholy visual treatment. The single exemplify the themes of alienation and politically-motivated anger present in the record, and it will release on July 14, 2009 as a CD single.
In the band's brand-new video clip, the guys and a young couple face a siege of gunshots in a disheveled motel room. While nothing particularly earth-shattering, the nicely-shot video does the song justice. The video is also slightly shorter than the song as the violin parts are cut out and the guitar solo was shortened by about twenty seconds. The music video was directed by Marc Webb, filmed in LA on June 6, 2009, and premiered on MySpace on June 22, 2009.
Green Day has sold over 22 million records in the US since 1987. My favorite singles from Green Day are 'Time of Your Life'(12/23/97), 'Boulevard Of Broken Dreams'(1/11/05), and 'Wake Me Up When September Ends'(6/13/05).
