American Idiot is a hot albummm
Dunno we've had it for ages but I just finally started listening to it this week. "lol". Dunno, hotttttt CD, everything flows nicely and it makes me happy to listen to. Lots of good tunes. The first song doesn't like fit the rest of the CD at all, sound-wise. Still good though. I forgot how much the man Green Day are

It's not a terrific album. There's a few good songs on there. Although that Boulevard of Broken Dreams is fuckin stupid. It's so slow and depressing. If I want to listen to depressing songs, I'll borrow Simple Plan off someone.

Boulevard of Broken Dreams is a decent song, but it really shines in its place within the concept album American Idiot is supposed to be. context. Depressing? yeah, but it's cool. And this is considering I can't name a single SONG off one of their other records I even like. |

American Idiot is a fantastic album. One of the best of the last five years or so.
As has been said before, the title track doesn't quite fit the overall feel of the album, but it does sort of work as a foreword to it. Top to bottom, there's not a weak song on the album, and I constantly find myself humming one track or another. When I first heard that they were making a "rock opera," I thought they'd completely lost their minds, but it really is wonderful. I don't think I'll ever get tired of it. |

It's a fantastic album which I think is Green Day's best work. American Idiot, Jesus of Suburbia, Holiday, Boulevard, Letterbomb, When September Ends and Homecoming are all top songs. In my view it's the album of the year.

I can't pick a bad song off the album.
They don't thrash it on the radio station I listen to, so the only time I hear it is when I play it. |

Yeah this CD still pwns. Been listening to it nonstop since I've gotten it. Jesus of Suburbia is like the greatest song ever, next to the mandatory Blink nominees, and/or The Decline. HOTTTTTTTtttttttttttt. God I wish I didn't stop listening to Green Day for so long

I completely agree.
I actually finally got myself to listen to it last month and I was really impressed by it. Boulevard of Broken dreams being played 15,000 times a day on the radio was pretty much halting me from listening to it. Glad I did ![]() |

If punk is all about a message, why are the Ramones (Often as shallow as the beach boys) considered punk?
