Green Day's seventh studio album, American Idiot was released in September 2004 and has since sold over 23 million copies worldwide, including 9 million in the US. The album is a punk rock opera masterpiece that won the Best Rock Album at the 2005 Grammy Awards©. Five hit singles were released from the album: "Boulevard of Broken Dreams," "Holiday," "Wake Me Up When September Ends," "Jesus of Suburbia," and the title track, "American Idiot."
The Limited Edition Super Deluxe Box Set celebrates the 20th Anniversary of this legendary album. In addition to the original album, the super deluxe box set includes 15 unreleased demos, a 15-song 2004 concert from Irving Plaza, NYC (9 songs previously unreleased), and 14 tracks that were released as B-Sides and bonus tracks.
The box set is completed with two Blu-Rays that feature the film Heart Like a Hand Grenade, 35 minutes of Green Day live at the BBC, and a new, unreleased documentary: 20 Years of American Idiot.
The deluxe vinyl box features the eight LPs pressed on different color vinyl, plus a 36-page book, a large Green Day flag, and the iconic American Idiot red tie.
A rich, multi-faceted work, one that is bracing upon the first spin and grows in stature and becomes more addictive with each repeated play. In its musical muscle and sweeping, politically charged narrative, it's something of a masterpiece, and one of the few — if not the only — records of 2004 to convey what it feels like to live in the strange, bewildering America of the early 2000s.
