Many call it their best album, but I think it’s by far their worst. It’s Green Day, so it’s still good stuff and worth consuming, but their earlier stuff is much better. The band has matured in recent years and this CD has a message to it. But I honestly couldn’t care less about their political beliefs and the reason why Green Day is so great is because they’re fun. Their songs are catchy, upbeat, and fun to just jump around to. American Idiot doesn’t really have that.
