Music reviews of Insomniac

Music Review: Not just one of the best modern punk albums, one of the best of all time!
Rating: 5 Stars

Although "Dookie" is always considered the best Green Day album, to me "Insomiac" is DEFINITELY just as good, if not BETTER. On "Insomniac", Green Day gives us the bratty attitude, heavy power chords, catchy vocal melodies, energetic drumming and powerful basslines that make these 33 minutes a true punk classic.

The music on this album is a bit heavier than "Dookie" and it's overall a bit more in-your-face, but with that comes a big slab of unforgettable songs that you can basically listen to all the way through and never get bored with. This album has spawned the popular songs such as "Geek Stink Breath" with its heavy chugging guitar riffs, the metal-influenced headbanger "Brain Stew" which feels like the entire song is one big breakdown...in a good way!, the very fast and very punk "Jaded", and the semi-sarcastic, semi "I don't care" attitude of "Stuck With Me".

Those songs right there capture Green Day in their prime, but even beyond that we get even more. "Aramtage Shanks", the opener, reminds me quite a bit of "Burnout", the first song on "Dookie". "Brat" is one of my favorite old Green Day songs with a very catchy vocal melody throughout the chorus. "86" is another sing-a-long with a really cool overall vibe to it. "Panic Song" has a frantic opening bassline and a long, really well-written intro. The rest of the songs all fit in together really well and flow nicely, making it an overall conscice and smooth album.

"Insomniac" is definitely one of the best albums of punk in the last 20 years, and is far too underrated for its own good. With that being said, I hope all reader will go to the store, pick it up and crank it in your room, your car, wherever. "Insomniac" is Green Day at their best! Thanks for the time, and peace.
