Beskrivelse
Green Days syvende studiealbum, "American Idiot", blev udgivet i september 2004 og har siden solgt over 23 millioner eksemplarer verden over. Albummet er et punk rock opera-mesterværk, der vandt prisen for Bedste Rockalbum ved Grammy Awards i 2005.
Fem hitsingler blev udgivet fra albummet: "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", "Holiday", "Wake Me Up When September Ends", "Jesus of Suburbia" og titelmelodien, "American Idiot". Begrænsede udgaver af Super Deluxe Box Sets (vinyl og CD) vil blive udgivet den 25. oktober 2024 for at fejre 20-årsjubilæet for dette legendariske album.
Den luksuriøse vinylbox indeholder otte LP'er presset på forskellig farvet vinyl, 2 Blu-ray Discs plus en 36-siders bog, et stort Green Day-flag og det ikoniske American Idiot røde slips. LP'erne indeholder det originale album og inkluderer også 15 uudgivne demoer, en 15-sangs koncert fra Irving Plaza, NYC i 2004 (9 sange tidligere uudgivne), og 14 numre, der blev udgivet som B-sider og bonusnumre.
Blu-ray'erne indeholder filmen "Heart Like A Hand Grenade", 35 minutter af Green Day live på BBC og en ny, uudgivet dokumentar: "20 Years of American Idiot".
