A once kick ass punk band
They started out as "Sweet Children" Playing an infamous punk club called gillmans street
later touring the u.s. and making two albums before releasing a punk masterpiece: Dookie
This did attract a lot of younger people and the people of gillmans street labeled them sell outs

In response Green day released Insomniac

A bit like dookie except a bit harder and faster

Then after that i call the downfall
They released Nim rod: A weird experimentation of Green day's sound then they released Warning
A bit more "poppy"

Then they released the all terrible: American idiot which they are now known for
If you really apreciate green day

you would of liked their first four albums
1. 39/smooth

2. 1,039/smoothed out slappy hours (combination of first album and EP's
3. Dookie
4. Insomniac
Girl: ZOMG BILLIE JOE IS SOOOOOOOO HAWT!
