As matter of factly as you put things, given my
opinion, I have to disagree with you.
People acted as if Green Day revolutionised the rock world with American Idiot. That somehow before that all music was just banging your head against a wall. In reality, there was hundreds of [better, IMO] bands out there who were always singing about political things, they just never broke the mainstream like Green Day did. Green Day don't particularly do anything sonically interesting at all at all in my book.
They aren't bad, I just don't think they are anything that special either. Age is irrelevant. AC/DC and the Stones still kick it up live and they are both far older bands than Green Day.
