In reality, Billie Joe Armstrong fronted the money for the band himself, and they are signed to Adeline Records, the record company he co-owns. The official Network band site claims that "Fink" put out the money for the band himself. Although the style of music is different (New Wave as opposed to Green Day's pop-punk style), Armstrong's voice can be unmistakably made out on several Money Money 2020 tracks. Billie Joe Armstrong dismisses Green Day's involvement in The Network as but a rumor, ostensibly for publicity purposes, even getting into a competitive argument with The Network. After their album Money Money 2020, The Network added a new member to the band : Balducci. These are clues as to the identities of the individual members, and it is known for certain that the members of Green Day are in The Network. It should be noted that Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong's alter ego is Wilhelm Fink and Green Day drummer Tré Cool went by King Underpants in the band The Lookouts, but is reportedly The Snoo in The Network. Their stage names are Fink (Billie Joe Armstrong), The Snoo (Tre Cool), Van Gough (Mike Dirnt), Captain Underpants, and Z. The band consists of all three members of Green Day and two of their touring musicians. Actually.The Network is a 5-piece New Wave/Synth Punk band from California. This is a record you cannot afford to miss. With monikers like The Snoo, Fink, and Van Gogh, The Network has formed an anomalous synthesis of pop and sarcastic social commentary. Their new-wave futuristic chaos gives nods to the likes of Adam & The Ants, Devo, Public Image LTD., and Peter Murphy. The Network presents an electronic, post-punk experience in sound and fury, with strong robotic and mechanical overtones. This is the astonishingly amazing debut full-length from this exceedingly mysterious group (GREEN DAY!). The Network have given their debut LP the wax treatment once again.
