If they are lucky, a legendary band will create one album considered a testament to their genre at some point in their career. A decade after blasting their way into mainstream consciousness with pop-punk mainstay Dookie, Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tre Cool delivered a second classic with this stunning rock opera. The album grabs you by the ears with the pulsing beat and downhill racing riffs of its title-track and takes you on a fantastic sonic journey unlike anything released in the last ten years.
