GD mentioned in this article about emo classics "Although Green Day didn’t invent punk, they certainly made the most impact putting it out into the world."

10 MODERN MUSICIANS KEEPING THE POLITICAL CONVERSATION ALIVE

These musicians are speaking out about their political grievances and motivating listeners to do the same.

Green Day, Rise Against the Machine and Against Me! all still use their musical platforms to share their frustrations with the world when it comes to politicians and government issues. These pioneers paved the way for younger political musicians to continue creating songs that spark dialogue, even outrage, with their songs and music videos. Climate change, immigration and gun control are just a few of the issues bands and artists are discussing today.

With the 2020 election just around the corner, these issues are being discussed frequently on the news and across the internet. Below are 10 modern-day musicians who are standing up and speaking out about their political grievances to motivate listeners to do the same. 

List of those artists follows.

10 LIVE ALBUMS FROM THE 2000S THAT STILL SLAP TODAY

https://www.altpress.com/features/best-2000s-live-albums-performances/

The 2000s birthed some of our favorite bands of all time, and those acts gifted us with some astounding live albums, spotlighting a certain time in each band’s history. Records like these show the viewer a more in-depth, behind-the-minds feel. 

From My Chemical Romance to Paramore, check out some of our favorite live albums from the 2000s below. 

Green Day – Bullet In A Bible

Recorded during their American Idiot world tour while in the U.K., Green Day released Bullet In A Bible in 2005. The songs heard on the album were performed in front of a crowd of over 130,000 people, which is a size most bands never even see in their career. It only makes sense that this larger-than-life live album emanated from Green Day, as no one could create such a must-have album like these genre icons.

The 40 Best Deep Cuts of 2000

24. Green Day, "Misery" (Warning)

Over the course of their first three major-label albums, Green Day recorded precisely zero songs that stretched over the four-minute mark. “Misery,” the five-minute centerpiece of fourth major LP Warning, typified the chances that the trio wanted to take on the project: with strings, an accordion, an oom-pah-pah rhythm and a collection of grim vignettes, the non-single clearly set the table for the ambitious songwriting on Green Day’s next proper album, 2004’s American Idiot. -- J. Lipshutz

10 FULL CONCERTS YOU CAN WATCH ON YOUTUBE TO GET THE LIVE EXPERIENCE

Green Day at Woodstock 1994

Woodstock 1994 saw performances from Red Hot Chili Peppers, Aphex Twin, Cypress Hill and more, but none of them would amount to the same level of absurdity as Green Day’s mud-ridden set. At the time, Dookie had been out for nearly half a year, and the trio were rapidly rising in popularity, headlining tours across the globe with few days off. When they finally graced the stage, Billie Joe Armstrong greeted the crowd most appropriately: “What is this fucking free hippy love shit? How you doin’ all you rich motherfuckers!” However, as Green Day ripped through song after song, fans began to hurl mud balls at them, and the band gladly took part in throwing them back. Things escalated so quickly that at one point, a security guard confused Mike Dirnt for one of the rampant fans who were leaping onstage and knocked his teeth out. Considering Green Day’s Hella Mega tour Asia dates are postponed in the meantime, this unforgettable moment in the band’s history feels worth commemorating with a rewatch or two.

Awesome 👏 I love lyric videos and I love that song! So glad to hear Billie name it as one of his favorites on FOAM. Now if they’ll only play it live someday

I don't care if it's "official" or not that was excellent!  Certainly as good as the official RevRad ones.
