formed in 1987. It consists of Billie Joe Armstrong (lead
vocalist and guitarists), Mike Dirnt (Bassist and backing vocalist) and Tre Cool (Drummer). Green day’s origin is from East way, California, USA. In addition, in 1987 by Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt formed a two-man band called Sweet Children at the age of 15. October 17 1987 was their first show at Rod’s Hickory Pit in Vallejo, California. 1988 was when they recruited two more members, they were Sean Hughes who played the bass and John Kiffmeyer who played the drums /percussion. However, Hughes left Sweet Children on 1989 causing Larry Livermore (owner of the Lookout! Records) to make the band signed to his label. The band also decided to drop the name “Sweet Children” to “Green day.” The reason behind this was that many people were getting confused with the local band called Sweet Baby. Another reason of changing their name to Green Day was that they like Marijuana. Kiffmeyer also left Green Day in 1990 because of him being not committed to the band full-time. Tre was his replacement when Kiffmeyer didn’t come and so therefore, when Kiffmeyer left, Tre Cool was the new replacement for Green Day from 1990-Present. There has been “a thing” between Armstrong and George W Bush. Armstrong hates him so much that he would choke him to death if they were in the same room together! CD 1. 01. Know your enemy (3:10) 02.

The best musical style this band represents is Alternative
Rock. This style uses Electric Guitar, Drums, and sometimes Keyboard. It’s range from the dirty sounds of grunge to the sounds of gothic rock to the Britpop. Alternative rock is a style that has a mixture of Punk, New wave, and Post Punk Music. In addition, it’s basically a hard-edged rock distinguished by very brittle, 70’s inspired guitar riffing and singers singing over their problems. Most of Alternative Rock music tends to talk about social concern, such as drugs, depression and major issues which affects the world. It’s the unlimited expression of individualism, deep in it’s message and making you want to listen by a nice rhythmic background. This style is very important because of it’s rich history. Alternative rock is kind of a mix of American and British culture. The dynamics of this style is usually very loud all the way through or soft at first, louder at the chorus and soft again. An example, would be 21 guns because it’s starts softly in the verses and loud in the chorus. I describe Alternative Rock as a music that is not rock but nearly close to rock.
