Did Green Day Just Announce the Craziest Album Re-Release Ever?

Green Day are betting you've never seen an album re-release quite like this. The Bay Area pop-punk trio are bringing back 1994's Dookie in a manner in which you'd never expect - through a Teddy Ruxpin bear, a doorbell, a Big Mouth Billy Bass and a Fisher Price record player among other odd and unusual formats.

The band is calling it a "demaster," providing the songs from the album through 15 obscure obsolete and otherwise inconvenient formats. Each song on the album is paired up and now playing through one of the unique players. The full array of options are listed below, while you can see each of the songs being played on their players through the dookiedemastered.com website.

Burnout – Player Piano Roll
Having A Blast – Floppy Disk
Chump – Teddy Ruxpin
Longview – Doorbell
Welcome To Paradise – Game Boy Cartridge
Pulling Teeth – Toothbrush
Basket Case – Big Mouth Billy Bass
She – HitClip
Sassafras Roots – 8-track
When I Come Around – Wax Cylinder
Coming Clean – X-Ray Record
Emenius Sleepus – Answering Machine
In The End – MiniDisc
F.O.D. – Fisher Price Record
All By Myself – Music Box
