The Network, who is definitely not Green Day, has returned after being dormant for almost two decades.

Earlier this month, vocalist Fink, bassist Van Gough, and drummer Snoo re-emerged to surprise-drop a song called "Ivankkka Is a Nazi" along with a pretty graphic video and also teased an upcoming collection of music.

At the time of the end of the band's hiatus, The Network reminded fans about their formation: "The Network were formed in the year 2003, fulfilling an ancient prophecy predicting that we, its chosen members, would issue a stern warning to mankind in the form of music,” the band wrote at the beginning of November.

On Friday (November 20), almost two weeks after reappearing, The Network revealed its new album, Money Money 2020 Pt II: We Told Ya So!, will be released on December 4 after learning their prophecy from 2003 has come true.

“Back in 2003 we, The Network, warned mankind of the fate they would meet in the year 2020,” the band wrote on Instagram. “To no surprise 2020 is upon us and it looks exactly as our prophecy predicted. As one final warning on December 4th 2020 we will release 'Money Money 2020 Pt II: We Told Ya So!'”

In addition to announcing the new album, The Network dropped a four-song EP, Trans Am, to hold fans over until December and released the video for the title track.

'Trans Am' Tracklist:

“Trans Am”
“Flat Earth"
“Fentanyl”
"Ivankkka Is a Nazi"
