"Ok here's the scoop. GD has been jamming new songs everyday," Armstrong posted on Twitter early Tuesday morning (May 31). "There's a ton of new songs. The direction is fresh and hi energy. Feels great."

The 39-year-old singer added that he, bassist Mike Dirnt, drummer Tre Cool and touring guitarist Jason White "are collaborating and having the best time playing music... And that's not bullshit!"

The band's last studio release was 2009's 21st Century Breakdown, while they released live CD/DVD Awesome As F*** earlier this year.

Their next studio album will be their ninth record.
