Aug 26, 2015One of the best albums of Green Day , a concept album that reflects life in the US in the government of Bush in a very good shape. It is not limited to be politically correct and show anger and condemnation . The two most notable songs : American Idiot and Jesus of Suburbian

Oct 4, 2016An amazing record from beginning to end filled with so many classics. I liked some of GD's stuff before this but AI was what really got me on board as a fan. Sensational!

Feb 21, 2017American Idiot is a great album with catchy songs, some upbeat and fun, while others are more thoughtful and dark like Boulevard of Broken Dreams. Overall it has a nice variety of songs that keep you wanting to listen to them over and over again.

Nov 10, 2019This album is amazing and iconic, but can we please get an F in the chat for Saint Jimmy.

Oct 5, 2020There won't be an album like American Idiot, this good and this passionate, with awesome multi-part songs like jesus of suburbia and homecoming, slow and emotional moments like Give me novocaine and Are we the waiting and uplifting songs like Holiday and St. Jimmy (not to mention letterbomb, what a song, guys). A roller coaster of emotions, incredible concept...

Jan 13, 2021Great album. The greatest Green Day album in my opinion. Ever since this album, Green Day has not been able to capture the same spark this album had.

It is exactly what the band needs to boost itself to the next level of pop-punk prowess.
-
There's still plenty of spunk in to be found in this Sgt. Pepper-lite.

Not only does it contain Green Day’s finest songs (and choruses) to date... but it also scratches at the surface of political dissatisfaction with nails sharp enough to leave a nasty scar.
