Green Day fans: excluding American Idiot, which will forever remain a classic, what is the best album of theirs? Consider more than just the hits from the various albums.

Good choice I think. It really showcases their variety, I feel?

I think it was the start of them maturing their sound and branching out a bit more than usual. It's a great record

I was a huge fan when Dookie came out

My favorites were always Dookie and Warning.
Also very unpopular opinion, I've never liked American Idiot besides "Holiday".

Interesting. Not even the title track?

Not the guy you replied to (big American Idiot fan tho), but the title track is definitely one of the weaker songs on the album

I admit I’m partial to the whole thing because it was the first album I started with and really my introduction into the pop punk world

Dookie and Nimrod both compete for second place for me. I'm pretty fond of Warning too

Kerplunk and Dookie are absolutely sensational for different reasons

Interesting you should say that! I feel like Uno! Especially doesn’t quite get the love it deserves.

My favorite will forever be Dookie, but in my opinion Nimrod is their best album musically.
