Reprise/Warner RecordsGreen Day‘s new album Father of All… is finally here.

The 13th studio effort from the punk trio, and the first since 2016’s Revolution Radio, is out today. At just 10 songs and 26 minutes long, Father of All… is the shortest Green Day album to date.

The lead single from Father of All… — full, uncensored titled: Father of All Motherf***ers — is the album’s title track, which frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has declared the “best first single Green Day ever wrote.” Fans seemed to like it, too, as “Father of All…” the single quickly climbed the charts, reaching number one on Billboard‘s Mainstream Rock Songs chart and the top three on Alternative Songs.

Along with the lead single, Green Day also shared the new songs “Fire, Ready, Aim” and the Joan Jett-sampling “Oh Yeah!”

One thing that isn’t on Father of All… is any mention of Donald Trump. While Green Day has certainly been political in the past, the group eschews any references to the current U.S. president since, as Armstrong told Kerrang!, Trump gives him “diarrhea.”

In support of Father of All…, Green Day will embark on the stacked Hella Mega tour this summer with Fall Out Boy and Weezer. The worldwide trek will launch June 13 in Paris, and will kick off in the U.S. July 17 in Seattle.

Here’s the Father of All… track list:

“Father of All…”
“Fire, Ready, Aim”
“Oh Yeah!”
“Meet Me on the Roof”
“I Was a Teenage Teenager”
“Stab You in the Heart”
“Sugar Youth”
“Junkies on a High”
“Take the Money and Crawl”
“Graffitia”
