This book was EVERYTHING. I can't believe it took me so long to read it! It's was amazing. The pictures were beautiful, I learned a lot of new things about my favorite band and it makes me wanna read it all over again while listening to the songs it talked about! If you are a Green Day fan READ THIS BOOK!!!!

It makes for a visually appealing coffee table book, filled with color photos of the band, album artwork, tour flyers, etc. It's also a well-written history and musical critique--albeit one from a writer who clearly thinks the sun never goes down on Green Day.
