my opinion: it is one of the best Greenday albums ever made.
I have been listhening to it for 5 days now without interruption. I even sleep while it plays on my stereo.
Billie Joe Armstrong has an incredible voice, I love listhening to them play.
If you are wondering what album to get, get this one. you will not regrett it.
Enjoy.

Theres something like 13 tracks w/ 2 rock operas (jesus of suburbia & homecoming). It's punk. Billie Joe Armstrong-lead singer guitarist, Tre Cool-drummer, Mike Dirnt-bassist, and Jakc White(i think)-guitarist.
Awesome! Definetly in the runnign for best album of the year! Absolutely amamzing! it just might be greendays best cd. Everything is amazing. The lyrics are possibly the deepest lyrics written by armstrong. The music is great!

A truly excellent album , set out perfect but confusing and the songs are awesome.
Once you have heard this you will wan't to get up and learn the lyrics play the tune and just wail your heart out.
Probably their best album along side Dookie (1994) and truly deserves respect from all you musicians out there.
Green Day now respected.

It has 13 tracks on it, but two songs have about 5 mini-songs on them. It kind of has a resemblence to The Wall, in that the lyrics to every song are tied to one another. I think thats called a rock opera...oh well, onto my opinions.
American Idiot - 7/10 - By far the most overrated song on the album. While it is still good, I don't think it deserves to be played on the radio more than any other song on the album.
Jesus of Suburbia - 9/10 - All of the mini-songs rock except I Don't Care.
Holiday - 10/10 - Very catchy rhythym, cool lyrics, over-all amazing song.
Boulevard of Broken Dreams - 10/10 - Ahh, my favorite song on the album. While it doesn't have the punk-rock Green Day sound, it is an amazing slow song that is very fun to play on the guitar.
Are We the Waiting - 8/10 - Another slower song, good, but not incredible.
St. Jimmy - 10/10 - Funny lyrics, typical Green Day sound, amazing punk song.
Give Me Novacaine - 9/10 - Yet another slower song, very good, relaxing.
She's A Rebel - 10/10 - Typical Green Day sound, very catchy rhythym, cool lyrics.
Extraordinary Girl - 7/10 - Okay, not one of my favorites.
Letterbomb - 10/10 - Amazing, typical Green Day sound.
Wake Me Up When September Ends - 9/10 - Very relaxing song, a song you'd definately not expect Green Day to do.
Homecoming - 9/10 - Excellent song, well put together, my favorite part is when Tre Cool sings, he's actually really good.
Whatsername - 7/10 - Cool lyrics, song itself is not not one of my favorites.
Overall - 9/10 - Very well thought out album, it greatly entertained me. if ya got a spare 15 bucks, you should definately pick this one up.

NOTES:
This album was released by Reprise Records. Produced by Rob Cavallo and Green Day. There is also a limited special edition verison, which contains a 52 page color book.
This CD. What can i say. It rocked. It was a different swing to the typical bay area green day feel. It's different, but still rockin! I think the best song on the record is jesus of suburbia. Its got like 3 different parts to it. I constantly listen to this CD. It kicks major ass! It is one of Green Day's best. I have debated w/friends at length about this CD vs. other Green Day CD's and we have all came to the same conclusion! It...Kicks...Ass! End. Of. Story.
