15 punk albums that set up 1994 to be a year of major change for the genre

 

Green Day – Dookie

The album that finally made punk go mega in America eventually sold 20 million albums worldwide and opened the door for pop punk, Warped Tour and pretty much anything Alternative Press has covered since. And we did not even review it then. Not for lack of trying on Your Punk Professor’s part. I’d pitched Billie Joe, Tre, and Mike to the mag since seeing them the year before in Austin, when they were still a Lookout! Records act. As former editor Jason Pettigrew sighed as we planned last year’s AP Green Day special issue: “I know, I know. We were all busy listening to The Downward Spiral back then….”

Green Day finally had the budget to record a widescreen rock record that didn’t sacrifice balls, energy nor punk attitude. Warner Records staff producer Rob Cavallo gave Dookie a production loud and clean enough to deafen you as you ate off of it. Billie Joe Armstrong wrote a batch of songs so universal, every teenager and young person who heard it screamed, “Holy shit! That’s me!” And once MTV began airing the first single’s video, “Longview”? They all heard it.

At least RS got numbers one and two the right way round, unlike Kerrang who got them wrong 😉😉

Warning is one of their best in my opinion.  2nd best only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades I suppose.

An artist by the name of Nap Eyes has released an EP with a cover of When I Come Around and the artwork is Kerplunkesque to say the least.

Same! I'm bummed Ollie isn't in it (but I also don't pay for NBC+ or whatever called that this show is streaming on).
