"Suburbia" is inspired by the poem America by Allen Ginsberg as well as the band's life following the release of The Upsides.

He and I agreed that since it's already available digitally, that no real harm can come of swapping out the old mixes with the better sounding ones as long as it never gets pressed in a physical form again.

Prior to the release of The Greatest Generation the band played 4 shows in the span of 24 hours to promote the album.

[11] On the band's website, buyers of the pre-orders are greeted with the option to donate to one of four charities, which include Puppies Behind Bars, After-School All-Stars, The Herren Project and Futures Without Violence.

After searching on "Shazam" for further information, they discovered the name of the song, along with the title, artwork, and tentative track listing for the band's sixth album, Sister Cities.
