Fifteen years ago today, Green Day's fourth studio album 'Insomniac' was released. Insomniac followed up Green Day's major label debut, Dookie, and had big shoes to fill. The band released a darker, more angry album than Dookie was. Producer Rob Cavallo stated in the 2001 documentary 'Behind the Music' that the band wanted to prove to people that they were still a punk band. Critics didn't think that it was as good as 'Dookie' was but was still a good follow-up.

'Insomniac' to this day has sold over 8 million copies and is behind only 'Dookie' and 'American Idiot' in sales.

Four singles and videos were released from the album: Geek Stink Breath, Stuck with Me, Brain Stew/Jaded, and Walking Contradiction.

So please take an hour or so out of your day to listen to this great album with us.
