American Idiot will come back into print with a new box set spanning four CDs (or eight colored LPs) and two Blu-ray Discs. It'll feature the original album, a disc of B-sides and non-LP live tracks, 15 unreleased

Green Day Gods Favorite Band

The only thing more unusual than Green Day declaring themselves God's Favorite Band on their new greatest hits compilation is the path that took them to such a humorously lofty claim. The East Bay, California trio--singer/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tre Cool (replacing original drummer John Kiffmeyer in 1990)--were fixtures of the Berkeley DIY club 924 Gilman Street, performing and producing snotty punk releases on the independent Lookout Records at the
