21st Century Breakdown (Deluxe Edition)

The two completely unstoppable numbers here are maybe Green Day’s best: “See the Light" and “Know Your Enemy” each max out on old-school punk (like Stiff Little Fingers), untainted power pop (like The Beat), and updated ’60s-styled song narratives (like mid-period Kinks). “Last of the American Girls” pulls heartstrings, while the punk rock psalm “East Jesus Nowhere” burns the suburban confessional down.
