iTunes Review
No one saw this one coming: three minute Berkeley punk rock heroes put together a compelling concept album (Punk Rock Opera) about a guy known as Jesus of Suburbia who suffers the rise and fall of the American Dream with a nine-minute track (“Jesus of Suburbia”) that splits into five parts as if it’s a tune from Rush. Other tracks follow in similar fashion, splitting into various parts. Characters such as St. Jimmy and Whatsername show up to advance a plotline that’s less important than the overall feeling that something’s going terribly wrong for everyone involved. Post 9/11, the world’s a mess and Billie Joe Armstrong summons up his inner Joe Strummer and Green Day’s Clash tendencies for the title track. But the most rewarding moments are when Armstrong lets his melodic firepower loose. “Holiday” and “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” use sweet choruses to express their fears and frustrations, with “Extraordinary Girl” and “Letterbomb” furthering the push for pure pop for the now concerned people.

The Best Album-- Ever
by jjmasterWhen this album was released, I was 9. Too young, maybe, to fully appreciate American Idiot. But I was old enough to see it as it is: A crude pop-punk-rock-alternative spectacle that, while a little glossy at times, succesfully captured the gist of angst. My brother brought this to our summer home in the woods that year, and I fell in love with Billy Joe's voice. American Idiot was the theme song for my summer.
I know this review will be lost among the ((checks page... only 582?)) 582 other reviews. Sure, I'll never get to meet Billy Joe: I dont even want to anymore. What I wanted was to send Green Day my long overdue gratitude, and give them review 583. Sch'boom.
