Description
The first original album since 2000 from modern rock superheroes Green Day, American Idiot is one of the most anticipated and controversial albums of the year.
Musically aggressive and lyrically ambitious, American Idiot is a snapshot of American culture. Part victim of circumstance and part victim of political climate, American Idiot follows Jesus of Suburbia through his confusion, alienation and disillusionment, while fueling that "rocking out in front of a mirror when you're 15" energy Green Day are famous for. Hailed as a "punk rock opera", the new album steers the band in a new direction, carrying a political theme throughout.
This is their fifth studio album (plus Greatest Hits & b-sides release) for Reprise Records.
