Green Day's 21st Century Breakdown is the band's second rock opera, a sprawling, politically charged follow-up to American Idiot, pressed here on 180-gram vinyl.
Released in 2009 and produced by Butch Vig, the album took years to come together, with Billie Joe Armstrong writing dozens of songs, many of them on piano, before the band settled into the studio. The result is split into three acts and follows a young couple, Christian and Gloria, as they try to make sense of a country that seems to be coming apart around them.
Armstrong drew on classic rock storytellers like The Kinks' Ray Davies, and the scale shows. "Know Your Enemy" is a fist-pumping call to arms, "21 Guns" is a huge, aching ballad about laying down your weapons, and "Last of the American Girls" bounces with sixties-style pop warmth. The title track opens with a line about being born into the Nixon era, setting the tone for a record steeped in personal and political history.
Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool keep things tight even as the songs stretch out, and Vig's production gives every chorus a stadium-sized lift.
It went on to win the Grammy for Best Rock Album. For fans who want Green Day at their most ambitious, this is the record to reach for.
