The Network is an American new wave - band . In their founding year 2003, they released their first album Money Money 2020 under the label of Adeline Records , the label of Billie Joe Armstrong and Jason White. The press picked up rumors at the time that The Network was a side project of Green Day , and that Billie Joe Armstrong , Tré Cool and Mike Dirnt were part of The Network as well as Jason White , but they appeared under a pseudonym. In 2004, two bonus tracks, Hammer of the Gods and Teenagers from Mars , a cover of the band Misfits , were released under the major label Reprise Records . Billie Joe Armstrong, Tré Cool and Mike Dirnt are listed there both as composers and lyricists, Tré Cool and Mike Dirnt, however, under their birth names Frank Edwin Wright III and Michael Pritchard. They were also covered by Foxboro Hot Tubs , another confirmed side project of Green Day.

Another member of the band may be Reto Peter , a Swiss producer. At a staged press conference on the Disease is Punishment DVD, some questions will be answered in Swiss German , and Reto is the co-producer of the album Money Money 2020 and there is a song on it called Reto .

Although Green Day had always denied participation in the course of speculation about the cast of The Network, bassist Mike Dirnt confirmed for the first time in an interview in 2013 that Green Day was actually behind The Network.
