The new CD from Greenday has been released today in the US. I must say this is possibly the best CD I have bought within the past couple years.

Idiot America is no longer filled with the lame lyrics that plagued Warning. The entire album concerns itself with the destruction of the American Dream. Instead of being like most current productions, this CD functions as a whole; each song instead of begining some random new idea, builds upon the previous. You can listen through this CD and it seems somewhat like one very long song telling a story.

The CD consists of 13 songs including two 5 part songs that last about 7-8 minutes and are genius.

The idea of using multi-part songs is one the best mechanical features of this album. The songs do not have breaks in between the parts of the song but there is usually a transfer in the style of music. So the song may contain some heavy punk, followed by a slower more emotional (although not even close to emo music) section, and then lead into a fast paced ska beat.

I won't go into anymore detail about the contents as to not spoil this great CD, but if at all possible get your hands on the CD. It is amazing.
