The Network's debut album Money Money 2020 has been remastered and will be re-released by Reprise Records this Tuesday, November 9th. It was originally released on Billie Joe Armstrong's Adeline Records label. The re-release contains two bonus tracks: "Hammer of the Gods" and Misfits cover "Teenagers From Mars." A live DVD titled Disease Is Punishment is also set for release this week. It was directed by Live Freaky! Die Freaky! director John Roecker.

The band also addressed the ever persistent rumors that they are in fact Green Day (just play along, it's fun) and in their recent press release detailed the reasons why they hate the popular trio:

REASON #1: Green Day are a bunch of rip-off artists and have been stealing The Network's ideas for years. Here is the proof: The Network put a record out then Green Day puts a record out; The Network performs a live show and then Green Day performs a live show! Coincidence? I think not! Come up with something new you bitches and stop stealing our ideas.

REASON #2: The Network does not do 9 minute songs on albums (unless by chance your CD skips and then proceeds to skip for 9 minutes). The Network do not have time to listen to a 9 minute song - there is shopping to do.

REASON #3: That pouty mouthed, commie lead singer of theirs, Billy Jean Armstrong! Who does this guy think he is? Wow, he signed us to his record label! Wow, he gave us an insane advance that we used on buying Patrick Nagel paintings! Wow, he then got us signed to Warner's! We should be grateful because of this? I don't think so-try harder buddy! You would sign Ah-a if you thought it would get your street cred back!
