Green Day landed three spots on Rolling Stone Readers' Poll "Top 10 Best Pop-Punk Albums of All Time", with Dookie, nimrod., and American Idiot.

If the Ramones set the groundwork for what pop-punk would become, Green Day made it a radio reality. The band's third album, 1994's Dookie, served as their major label debut and a launch point for the more absurd, childish rock of the post-grunge Nineties. Their slacker rebellion found a refreshing annex between the speed and grit of early punk with pop accessibility, making songs about masturbation and therapy weirdly anthemic.
