    I'm always saying this. It's such a shame. I feel like 21st got overshadowed by the success of American Idiot. I felt that they put so much effort into this and talent was at its peak, but then people complained that it wasn't like their previous albums and then they just never did anything like it again.

    Great job on the list Jon! I can see your points you bring up for each album and respect your placements even if I personally disagree. I remember being so excited for Saviors that when I was done with my film program for the day and got home, I rushed to my music room and re-listen to Green Day's discography again. Granted, I need to re-listen to Father of All and the trilogy again and see if my thoughts change, but for funsies, here's my ranking on their discography from worst to best as of right now: 14. Father of All... (5/10) 13. UNO (6/10) 12. DOS (6/10) 11. 39/Smooth (6/10) 10. Kerplunk! (6/10) 9. TRE (7/10) 8. Saviors (8/10) 7. Insomniac (8/10) 6. Dookie (8/10) 5. 21st Century Breakdown (8/10) 4. Revolution Radio (9/10) 3. Warning (9/10) 2. Nimrod (9/10) 1. American Idiot (9/10)

    I've always thought of Green Day's discography in arcs. I feel like the first half of their career, in particular, can be broken down into distinct, two-album phases: 1) 39 Smooth/ Kerplunk: The Lookout Years. Most songs are about love. Chuck Berry-esque guitar solos abound. Low budget recording quality. Endearing. 2) Dookie/Insomniac: Fast, lean pop-punk that leans more aggressive than their previous material (esp. Insomniac). Far fewer love songs, more about growing up, boredom, and angst. Mike Dirnt's is ON FIRE during this time. Those basslines... 3) Nimrod/Warning: The "I think I'm an old man, but I'm really just in my late 20's" years. More songs themed around getting older, responsibility, letting go. Lots of experimentation with different instrumentation. Strings, Mariachi bands, horns. It really did feel like their career was slowing down around this time, but I loved, and still love these albums. 4) AI/ 21'st CB: The rock opera years. Big, anthemic, multi-part songs. Very slick production. Albums really best experienced from front to back. Also, a big change to Green Day's live performance. Sudden emphasis on aesthetics (eyeliner, matching stage outfits, BIG bombastic live shows). I remember being turned off initially when AI came out. The group of schlubby white dudes I idolized as an early teenager now looked like a walking Hot Topic and felt unapproachable. I've since come around these albums in a big way, but this is where I fell off as a fan for about a decade. It's harder to categorize the second half of Green Day's catalog. I feel like it's more of a grab bag of unrelated musical statements. I thought Revolution Radio was going to be a new phase for the band, but they followed that up with Father of All... As for Saviors, I think it's up there among Green Day's best work. I haven't connected with a new Green Day record this much since probably Warning. I wouldn't mind if we get a second album in this vein in another few years.

    Man, as a lifelong fan of the band who started out at Nimrod, tracked back a couple of years before the release of Warning and have been with the band ever since through the good, the bad, and the indifferent, I want to say this ranking is absolutely awesome. Now, me of years lost and yonder MAY have been combative about American Idiot being number one on that list, but on it's 20th anniversary and, for all the reasons you mentioned, I can't hate on it being #1 on your list. I'm just glad that you gave Nimrod the third spot because, as mentioned, it's where I started with the band before going back to Insomniac, Dookie, Kerplunk, and 1039/Smoothed Out Hours. I don't have the love for DOS! That you have, but that's a minor qualm and definite background sound. I do like the props you gave to Saviors as, following the album that was Father, it really brings me back to the better days of the band and to what they could still very well be. Which is scary, considering it's now 34 years since their debut proper!

    Saviors is def a project I was waiting from them. Revolution Radio was great when it came out but it lacked something that I feel wasn't getting fully tapped into. It's more rock than it is punk and has some pop influences in there but still a solid record. Saviors feels like a modern green day doing punk again. I can't get enough of it. I need to listen to all of their music again at some point. I think it's been 10+ years since I've really given their whole music a listen through.

    Perfection: Dookie, Nimrod, American Idiot Great: Kerplunk, Insomniac, 21st Century Breakdown, Warning, Rev Rad, Saviors Good: 1039/Smooth, !Uno!, Trè! Meh: ¡Dos! Father of All (even though there is a lot of songs on ¡Dos! that I really like, as well as maybe a few on FOA) If the trilogy was one album with all the good songs on one album, I definitely think it could’ve been a great album

    Real commentary though, As someone who grew up with American Idiot and International Superhits being my first exposure, then going back to Dookie and playing it for 100+ hours, and THEN Finding Insomniac, I think I can safely say that Insomniac is my favorite Green Day album. Dookie has the incredible, lovable "Fuck it" attitude about it with a lot of sincerity. American Idiot has the world-stopping power of "Fuck you" political punk rock just at the right time. But Insomniac represents (to me) all those nights you spend in between those events. I think they REALLY perfected their craft with it, because to me there's not a single skippable song on the album. I may be talking out of my ass. Not out of nostalgia, but out of lived experience. That's just my take.

    @Jane-pr3wu I appreciate it! I tend to like albums that make me feel more visceral feelings, and while all three that I mentioned do that, as a massive testament to Green Day's talent, Insomniac is the one that is just the most visceral, unapologetic, and honest in my opinion. But we're all spoiled for choice between 3 stellar albums along with the rest of the discography, do I appreciate all other opinions.

    1. 21 CB ( I love the beetle's/queen presence in this album. IDC if its an hour + I listen to it daily, and plus this is billies best vocal performance and i can't stop listening to live videos from that era.) A + 10/10 2. Warning (I love this album because of its uniqueness and Billie's strange lyricism and his mature delivery. I also still love how they still got rippers on it like castaway and fashion victim. Top 3: Deadbeat holiday, castaway, Misery) 3. Insomniac (I love how honest Billie is with his lyrics and Mike's insane bass performance!!!!!!!!, Top 3: Stuart & Ave., Brat, Arm. Shanks) A 4. American Idiot (An amazing story of characters I can relate to, and I agree with most of the political statements and how the instruments tie together to amplify the story, Top 3: Letterbomb, st.Jimmy, Homecoming) A 5. Nimrod ( A banger after banger after banger album is all i have to say, Top 3: Scattered, NGFL, and The Grouch) A 6.Saviors (A great return after FOAMF, even though not a clear form of a story, but still nothin but gas besides OEB, Top 3: Saviors, 1981, Strange Days) A - 7. Dookie (i like the lyrics and production but just doesn't resonate with me too much), Top 3: FOD, She, and WTP) B+ 8. RevRad (a good return after the trilogy and rehab, Top 3: Outlaws, Forever Now, Too Dumb To Die) B + 9.Tre (A good closer album to me, love billie's voice in this record, Top 3: Brutal love, ALBNT, DRB) B 10. Dos (I like the uniqueness to it. Top 3: Stop when the red lights flash, stray heart, and ashley) B - 11.Uno (good job on sounding like their younger selves, still repetive tho) C+ 12. Kerplunk (its a good start to their career, not my fave tho.) C+ 13. FOAMF (its got some good ones but majority bad) D+ 14. Shenanigans (it's alright) D+ 15. 1039 / Smoothed Out Slappy Hours (I never grasped on to it really) D-

    My list + The Network albums. Btw we're a middle school band trying to make it it would help so much if you subbed. (1) Kerplunk (2) Insomniac (3) 21st CBD (4) American Idiot (5) Nimrod (6) Dookie tied with Saviors. And the only reason Dookie is this low is because I've heard basket case too much.) Also Saviors sounds just like Dookie. (7) Revolution Radio (8) Shenanigans tied with Warning (9) Money Money 2 (10) Shenanigans (11) ¡Dos! (12) Father of All (13) 39/Smooth (14) Money Money (15) ¡Uno! (16) ¡Tre! (Would be way higher but I'm trying to forget drama queen so for right now it's here.)

I got into Green Day (and really caring about music as a whole) with 21st Century Breakdown so it has a special place in my heart even though I wouldn't call it my favorite. Here is my ranking of Green Day. 1. Insomniac 2. Nimrod 3. Dookie 4. American Idiot 5. Kerplunk 6. 21st Century Breakdown 7. Warning 8. Revolution Radio 9. 39/Smooth 10. Saviors 11. Dos 12. Tre 13.

    My Ranking (though it changes day to day): 14. Uno 13. Kerplunk (It's not bad, I just don't come back to it) 12. Tre 11. Revolution Radio 10. Dos 9. 21st Century Breakdown (listened to this too much and got sick of it) 8. Father of All...(honestly love this one, think it's a blast) 7. 39/Smooth 6. Insomniac 5. American Idiot 4.Saviors 3. Warning 2. Dookie 1. Nimrod Like I said, this changes daily. It seems like blasphemy to have American Idiot at 5 but, while I still love it and owe it so much to shaping my music tastes, I just find myself not coming back to it as a whole. I'll listen to a few tracks here and there. And while I say that Nimrod is my favorite, I don't think it's perfect. But the only song I don't love is Last Ride In. I think it makes the whole album stop for no reason. Dookie is a no-skip album for me. The difference is that I enjoy the punchiness of Nimrod's songs much more. Warning and Saviors could go back and forth. I feel like Saviors was able to do what Father of All was trying to do better. I really love how short and sweet Father of All is. Me and my brother are alone in enjoying that album. He actually told me Father of All is his favorite of their albums. Shocking, I know. When I first fell in love with Green Day, I loved American Idiot but loved the theatrics and bombast of 21st Century Breakdown more. So I listened to it over and over and over. Now I can't listen to the long songs for more than a minute without getting bored. Similar thing happened with American Idiot for me. I think Jesus of Suburbia is the crowning achievement, hands down their best song, but for me She really means the world to me so it's my favorite. I also thoroughly love Shenanigans. There was a time where I would have said it was my favorite of everything they've done. While it is still very high on the list, I have to acknowledge that is in truth a compilation, and therefore cannot be properly ranked. Thanks for the video Jon!

Tiers internally ordered, best first S: American Idiot, Dookie A: RevRad, 21CB, Insomniac, Saviors B: Kerplunk, Warning, Nimrod C: 1039, Tre D: Uno, Dos F: FoaMF

    just a couple of weeks ago I spent around 11 hours in 2 days ranking all of green day's songs, in order of how often I would listen to them. I know that the list is flawed (Most because Jesus of Seburbia is in the second to last rank) but I would highly recommend as I got to look back at all of my favorite green day songs, andfind a few hidden gems that I passed up on before! I also know that my list was not perfect because if I'm being honest, I am not the biggest fan of American Idiot songs on their own.

    Two of my favorite HIGHLY underrated GD tracks: the sweeping grandeur of “Last Night on Earth” from 21st Century Breakdown and the power pop perfection of “8th Avenue Serenade” from Tre. On the flip side, one of my biggest gripes with 21st Century Breakdown, which would otherwise (musically) be my favorite Green Day album: “See the Light” is such a piss-poor, no-effort shoulder-shrug of a closer to what was up to that point such a sweeping and epic album.

    I agree with the list to a large degree. The clear difference for me is that I'd have Kerplunk in the top 3 and Warning barely cracking the top 10. I'd also have American Idiot 5th. But I was born in the 80's and Green Day had already made a huge impression on me long before American Idiot.
