Thirteen years ago today, Green Day's fifth studio album 'Nimrod' was released. Nimrod has a variety of musical styles in it, ranging from fast punk songs, to slower-paced punk, and to acoustic ballads. For me personally, Nimrod is included in my top five Green Day albums.

According to Wikipedia: The portraits covered on the album cover are Dwight D. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman (former U.S. Presidents).

Nimrod, to this day, has sold over 6 million copies and is behind 'Dookie,' 'American Idiot,' and 'Insomniac' in sales.

Four singles were released from the album: Hitchin' a Ride, Good Riddance, Redundant, and Nice Guys Finish Last. Those four, as well as the instrumental 'Last Ride In' were made into videos.

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