I don't listen to Green Day anymore, but when American Idiot was released that was a pretty big moment for me. In that brief moment after it was released and before they completely blew up and were in your face constantly I played that album the whole time and it felt like one of those albums that you could live inside. Although i haven't listened to the album in a few years now, and I probably won't anytime soon, I do think that American Idiot and Dookie are the only Green Day albums you'll really need. Even when I was a Green Day fan I found the rest of their stuff slightly underwhelming compared to those two.
