You're not a fan of this artist anymore, the sellouts that they are.

Green Day is one of the most iconic modern era punk bands. They orginate from the San Francisco Bay area and have been rocking the music world for more than two decades. Their first album, "39/Smooth", was released in 1990, but it was their third album, "Dookie", released in 1994, they they truly made a mark.

Many believe the success of Green Day comes from the first music video released from the "Dookie" album. The music video was for the song "Longview". The success of the song lead the band to a series of tour dates. Green Day fast became one of the biggest and most after bands of the 1990s. Festival organizers quickly understood that people across the world wanted to see Green Day in concert and lined them up for festivals across the globe.

After several years of great success the band dissolved into series of infighting and personal issues that caused their music to suffer. Then in 2004 and the band emerged from the shadows with "American Idiot." The music was less punk and more rock, but the world didn't seem to care. The album quickly became one of the best selling rock records of all time. Green Day was once again one of the most popular and influential bands in the world.

They say things get better with time. That is certainly the case with Green Day.
