If reinventing yourself and going from a brat-rock hit machine pumping out radio-friendly pseudo-punk hits to a modern-day Who pumping out convoluted mini rock operas works, you going with it – which is exactly what Green Day has done with their follow up to American Idiot except that the story is a little clearer and the songs are more varied, ranging from the epic title track, which is already one of the best songs they’ve ever made, to “Christian’s Inferno” (one of the most punk songs they’ve ever made) to the ballad-y “Last Night on Earth” – the songs are powerful and punchy and have a weird sort of maturity not found on American Idiot.
