CULTURAL IMPACT

Following in the footsteps of the grunge movement, California's Punctrio Green Day has released a groundbreaking third album, Dookie. The 1994 release may not be on the list of "Top 10 Best Rock Records Ever", but it's certainly one of the most influential.

This collection of bright and high-pitched songs about the boredom and indifference of the suburbs not only could change the increasingly narrow American punk scene, but also produced the sunny pop-punk sound that remains to this day.

The politically prosecuted concept album of the US band is still packed with punch after more than a decade. Same as American Idiot. Released on September 21, 2004, the concept album follows the story of Jesus in the suburbs, a lower middle-class American antihero.

As a result, the title track has become a very politically charged single and has been firmly incorporated into all the important lists of protest songs.
