Overview Edit

Nimrod is the fifth album by the Rock band Green Day, released on October 14, 1997 on Reprise Records. The album entered the Billboard U.S. charts at #10, and achieved double platinum status, although it did not revive Green Day's sales to the level of Dookie. Nimrod achieved critical respect and yielded the acoustic hit "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)." The album was released in Europe as an HDCD. The album has sold over six million copies worldwide. The portraits covered on the cover are Dwight Eisenhower and Harry S Truman.

5 stars Great Music from a Great Band
It is such a shame to see a great band like Green Day being the target of so much negative criticism. Here is a band who can make great music, are impressive as hell when performing live, and they never seems to put out an album with the sole purpose of being popular or on TV so much. (If that were the case, they would release more albums at a time.) Green Day is one of my all time favorites and they continue to do nothing but impress me. "Nimrod" is an excellent album with a ton of great songs.…

2 stars whats the deal with these guys
Green Day really puzzles me sometimes. Their early stuff is pretty true to their punk roots, but their newer stuff really dives into the alternative realm. Songs like good ridents really stray unforgivably far from their roots.
