Green Day fans, rejoice. This album is a one-of-a-kind, spectacular showcase of the band's versatility and talent. American Idiot is both very similar to and yet completely unlike any of Green Day's previous albums. In this fantastic "Tommy"-like epic, Billie Joe, Tre Cool, and Mike Dirnt show that they can still pump out rockin' pop-punk tunes; yet they also exhibit their softer side - without betraying their politically-charged punk rock roots.
