Nine years ago today, Green Day released International Superhits, a compilation released as a "Greatest Hits" CD. The CD features Green Day's most popular songs from Dookie, Insomniac, Nimrod, and Warning. The band recorded two new songs for the album, 'Maria', and 'Poprocks & Coke'.

Green Day's first two albums were excluded from the compilation since Green Day's record company, Warner did not have the rights to those albums at the time International Superhits was released.

An accompanying DVD entitled, International Supervideos was also released 9 years ago today featuring all of the bands previous music videos.

As of September of this year International Superhits sold 1,896,000 copies in the US and over 3,000,000 worldwide achieving platinum standards.

So please, take an hour or so out of your day and listen to International Superhits front to back along with us today.
