i wouldn't say they had the best political lyrics either but they appealed to a wider range of people which i don't see as a bad thing
Nimrod was the album that got me into heavier music and i think that it is helping other people do the same with american idiot
they do seem to have lost their punk roots but they are claiming to want to just be known as a rock band now
i think that they had better songs in the dookie/insomniac/nimrod era but i still can't see them as terrible musicians - although they aren't amazing musicians just ok but they can write heel of a catchy song
