The full story of the upward thrust and spectacular comeback of the band hailed as the saviors of punk rock Its hard to imagine that in early 2004 Green Day used to be thought to be over — the band used to be still together, but they were dismissed as a strictly 90s phenomenon, incapable of re-creating the success of their groundbreaking album Dookie. Then American Idiot debuted at #1 on the Billboard charts, stayed on the charts for almost 18 months, and went on to sell more than four million records and to win Record of the Year (for “Boulevard of Broken Dreams”) at this years Grammys. Combining unique get entry to to Green Day with a seasoned journalists nose for a great story, Marc Spitz gives the complete account of the band, from their earliest days to their most contemporary explosion of popularity and critical acclaim. Foremost, No one Likes You is a story of friendship and the transporting power of playing very loud music. It’s the story of how high school dropout Billie Joe Armstrong came to write song lyrics that inflamed the political moral sense of fans in a way that two Yale graduates couldnt. Green Days story — from rise, to fall, to rise again — has never before been fully told.
