  • NME: "The band performed their version of the John Lennon classic Working Class Hero. The track is taken from the forthcoming John Lennon tribute album, 'Instant Karma: The Campaign To Save Darfur' which is released on June 25. Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong said: 'We wanted to do Working Class Hero because its themes of alienation, class, and social status really resonated with us. It's such a raw, aggressive song... we felt we could really sink our teeth into it. I hope we've done him justice.'"
