The Boys Are Back In Town was produced by the same company responsible for the recently released Morrissey: From Where He Came To Where He Went — With And Without The Smiths DVD. This two-DVD set features two documentaries originally made earlier this decade. The first, which was produced in 2002, is about the history of Green Day from their...

Green Day — 21st Century Breakdown

in
By Aaron Brophy (CHARTattack) May 13, 2009 10:45 am
Two bloated epics in a row run the risk of making Green Day look as horrible at self-editing as Billy Corgan, but the now-just-as-rock-as-they-are-punkers manage to stay just on the right side of the concept album territory by keeping the focus on the plight of the underdog "in these troubled times," as the cliche goes. 21st Century...

Bullet In A Bible captures in both CD and DVD footage the biggest show in Green Day's history. The band's flawless performance at England's Milton Keynes...

Green Day — American Idiot

in
By Keith Carman (CHARTattack) September 21, 2004 3:10 pm
It's been a long time in the making and those over 20 saw it coming a mile away. Green Day's earliest albums paid homage to the likes of The Clash and The Ramones, but there was always a deeper adoration of classic, windmill-inducing rock aching to rise to the surface.Enter American Idiot, the album where that influence finally breaks...

Green Day — Warning

in
By Debbie Bento (CHARTattack) October 3, 2000 12:50 pm
Wow, first it was Oasis who turned all mature and sappy once they grew older and had kids, but who would've thought Green Day would turn out the same way? Warning is a catchy little album, but someone please find the band's once gritty punk bone! I mean, the harmonica pieces on "Hold On" are so identical to those in the Beatles' tune...
