Punk purists may turn up their noses at Green Day, but Dookie, their punk-pop classic album, has stood the test of time, with its sarcasm, self-deprecation, humor and pop guitar hooks still holding up today.
Green Day's third studio album, Dookie, was released in February 1994 and has since sold over 15 million copies worldwide, including 10 million copies in the US (RIAA Diamond certified). The album is an iconic punk-rock-pop masterpiece and one of the most influential and defining albums of the 1990s. It spawned five hit singles that are still hugely popular: "Longview", "Basket Case", "Welcome to Paradise", "When I Come Around", and "She".
