ps, future Ranked episodes prob won't be this "scripted", wanted to go big for Green Day tho
You can watch all of my Green Day content in this playlist czcams.com/play/PLojZ5gufY8hb7t2TYa8giRXVrdF1qzIUc.html
Jon talking about Green Day is always a win.
Definitely
Shenanigans is very cohesive for a compilation album. If I didn't know it was a compilation I'd assume it was a studio album because it flows that well.
I'm glad Scattered is getting its flowers, such a banger
I think 21st Century Breakdown is still an underrated masterpiece. Both 21CB and RevRad in my opinion are better than Saviors, maybe in some years this will change but at the moment this is how I feel about it
21CB > Saviors > RevRad
RevRad is just not as strong lyrically or in terms of production imo
Totally agree with you about 21CB. Such an underrated masterpiece. I know it had big hits like 21 guns/know your enemy, but it still feels very overlooked
21CB might quite honestly be the most underrated album of all time. Easily S tier
I'm always saying this. It's such a shame. I feel like 21st got overshadowed by the success of American Idiot. I felt that they put so much effort into this and talent was at its peak, but then people complained that it wasn't like their previous albums and then they just never did anything like it again.
@austinmaser5127 couldn’t agree more!
Fun fact: I share a birthday with Green Day’s first ever EP may 26 except I was born in 2010
That EP is 1 year, and 1 day older than me lol

I Know You Somewhere From A Green Day Related Video, But I Forgot What Video It Is, It's Not An ARTV Video, But I Know You From Your Profile Picture
10:50 never forget green day rock band
Saviors definitely has a lot of growers. The title track has some big Empire Strikes First vibes, is it just me?
im picking up what you're putting down
As a Green Day superfan, I agree with this list but I think Rev Rad should be in A and I might have Shenanigans higher in B just because of Suffocated, Desentitized, and Ha Ha You’re Dead. Those songs are so good.
Also, “Still Breathing” is an absolute modern classic, up there with “Dilemma” in their recent discog.
Do da da?
@@xXMachineGunPhillyXx True, both tracks are so good.
Personally I think RevRad is their best and Forever Now is their best song. It just feels so triumphantly anthemic (even though i know it has an opposite meaning) and it feels very auto bibliography like for a song.
@@ScottyBMakin I KNOW RIGHT?? FOREVER NOW'S ENDING ALWAYS GIVES ME CHILLS dude it's so triumphant and EUPHORIC feeling
“I can still smell the summer of 2009” I get that every time I listen to 21st Century Breakdown too.

THANK YOU for giving my favorite album, Warning, the recognition it deserves!
Warning is a great album, well placed at #5. It's just a shame that the album was the first of the Pro-Tools era in all its sterility.
Warning isn’t just underrated - it’s one of their *best* records. I love this band, and I love Warning.
My first rock concert was Green Day’s Warning Tour in 2000, air raid sirens, then the band ran out, Billy Joe jump on top of an amp and they ripped right into my favorite GD song, “Nice Guys Finish Last.” Epic
It has now been 0 DAY(S) since Warning was last called underrated. The record of 1 DAY(S) was recorded on October 3, 2000
@@SGTCloudrunnerthank you bot
i very much love Warning so much. Such a very mature album and song list.
I’m a simple guy. I see ARTV upload Green Day I click
I've always thought of Green Day's discography in arcs. I feel like the first half of their career, in particular, can be broken down into distinct, two-album phases:
1) 39 Smooth/ Kerplunk: The Lookout Years. Most songs are about love. Chuck Berry-esque guitar solos abound. Low budget recording quality. Endearing.
2) Dookie/Insomniac: Fast, lean pop-punk that leans more aggressive than their previous material (esp. Insomniac). Far fewer love songs, more about growing up, boredom, and angst. Mike Dirnt's is ON FIRE during this time. Those basslines...
3) Nimrod/Warning: The "I think I'm an old man, but I'm really just in my late 20's" years. More songs themed around getting older, responsibility, letting go. Lots of experimentation with different instrumentation. Strings, Mariachi bands, horns. It really did feel like their career was slowing down around this time, but I loved, and still love these albums.
4) AI/ 21'st CB: The rock opera years. Big, anthemic, multi-part songs. Very slick production. Albums really best experienced from front to back. Also, a big change to Green Day's live performance. Sudden emphasis on aesthetics (eyeliner, matching stage outfits, BIG bombastic live shows). I remember being turned off initially when AI came out. The group of schlubby white dudes I idolized as an early teenager now looked like a walking Hot Topic and felt unapproachable. I've since come around these albums in a big way, but this is where I fell off as a fan for about a decade.
It's harder to categorize the second half of Green Day's catalog. I feel like it's more of a grab bag of unrelated musical statements. I thought Revolution Radio was going to be a new phase for the band, but they followed that up with Father of All...
As for Saviors, I think it's up there among Green Day's best work. I haven't connected with a new Green Day record this much since probably Warning. I wouldn't mind if we get a second album in this vein in another few years.
So glad I found this video. Instantly subscribed ❤️ I’ve been a super fan since I was 10 years old, so a lot of what you said resonates with me. Love this video
Great job on the list Jon! I can see your points you bring up for each album and respect your placements even if I personally disagree.
I remember being so excited for Saviors that when I was done with my film program for the day and got home, I rushed to my music room and re-listen to Green Day's discography again. Granted, I need to re-listen to Father of All and the trilogy again and see if my thoughts change, but for funsies, here's my ranking on their discography from worst to best as of right now:
14. Father of All... (5/10)
13. UNO (6/10)
12. DOS (6/10)
11. 39/Smooth (6/10)
10. Kerplunk! (6/10)
9. TRE (7/10)
8. Saviors (8/10)
7. Insomniac (8/10)
6. Dookie (8/10)
5. 21st Century Breakdown (8/10)
4. Revolution Radio (9/10)
3. Warning (9/10)
2. Nimrod (9/10)
1. American Idiot (9/10)
Man, as a lifelong fan of the band who started out at Nimrod, tracked back a couple of years before the release of Warning and have been with the band ever since through the good, the bad, and the indifferent, I want to say this ranking is absolutely awesome.
Now, me of years lost and yonder MAY have been combative about American Idiot being number one on that list, but on it's 20th anniversary and, for all the reasons you mentioned, I can't hate on it being #1 on your list. I'm just glad that you gave Nimrod the third spot because, as mentioned, it's where I started with the band before going back to Insomniac, Dookie, Kerplunk, and 1039/Smoothed Out Hours.
I don't have the love for DOS! That you have, but that's a minor qualm and definite background sound. I do like the props you gave to Saviors as, following the album that was Father, it really brings me back to the better days of the band and to what they could still very well be. Which is scary, considering it's now 34 years since their debut proper!
As someone who Green Day is there favorite band I think I agree with most of these. BTW I have Ernie on the back of Dookie.
Warning has been and always will be my favorite album. Cannot stress how much i FUCKING LOVE this album
First time on the channel and absolutely love your ranking! You got yourself a new subscriber.
Thanks for that, glad you enjoyed 🤘 check out some of my other Green Day videos / rankings if you’re curious
Awesome ranking man! Green day are my favourite band too and you literally covered everything I could have covered. This made me oddly emotional icl hah they're just so good!
My fave is Rev Rad and Warning (dont attack me guys!) But anyway, Amazing amazing amazing dude!!!
im glad to see a bigger youtuber talk about green day. they dont get talked about enough
I swear man, I grew out of Green Day yet i love these. I love seeing you passionately talk about GD
Damn I waited for this. I would agree on most of your choices and I’m happy to see Savior in the A tier, its such a good album.
While Warning was the first album I remember hearing, it was American Idiot that made me fall in love with them and it also changed my life. Also, I would've loved to see you rate their singles as well but this was still a great video
Ooh this ranking was INTERESTING. Like I think some stuff was comparable to its position on the original ranked, and I figured father of all would be dead last, but there were more than just a couple moments where I was surprised by a particular placement. (funnily enough elementary school age me had just made friends with a classmate who had been raised on green day, and so my first album I was there for at day one was 21st century as well).
i love green day so much!! i've been a casual listener for years but they only became my favorite band once American Dream came out, and I'm trying to get the money to see them this summer!
First I've seen of your channel and was hoping I'd see American Idiot at 1. Thank you! I love Dookie and Nimrod, but Green Day became my favourite band when American Idiot came out. Listening to it again recently I said to myself "this album is a fucking masterpiece" and it really deserves to be the one considered their best.
I haven't listened to much post 21st Century Breakdown so hard to comment on your whole list, but definitely agree on the top 5.
P.S- I think Shenanigans is a great album and would love to see a video on it 👍
Need that shenanigans review. That album is so good and underrated
Saviors is def a project I was waiting from them. Revolution Radio was great when it came out but it lacked something that I feel wasn't getting fully tapped into. It's more rock than it is punk and has some pop influences in there but still a solid record. Saviors feels like a modern green day doing punk again. I can't get enough of it. I need to listen to all of their music again at some point. I think it's been 10+ years since I've really given their whole music a listen through.
Some of my favorite Green Day tracks are on UNO. Personally really love that album
Nuclear Family
Stay The Night
Let Yourself Go
Rusty James
Not a favorite but I actually defend Kill The DJ 😅. It’s fun
I think this is the biggest discography you’ve RANKED so far.
Awesome vid! Just a suggestion: after seeing you talk about Depeche Mode in a couple of recent videos, I'd be curious to see you rank all of those albums at some point :)
Would like to make that happen at some point, cheers
Revaluation Radio is how I got into the band. The first song I heard by them was Still Breathing and I was instantly impressed and hooked by the greatness of their music. It made me feel like I had this tight bond with them and I wasn’t alone in my life anymore
Would LOVE to hear Father of All... played in their current setlist. Such a banger of a track. Gets my blood pumping every time
Revolution Radio for me gets better & better each year I got it in the B tier now
YES FINALLY SOME LOVE FOR 80 MY FAVORITE SONG
Great video, I wouldve done the list a bit differently but I was wondering if you would ever rank their other band albums like foxborro, the network, pinhead gunpowder, ect
Maybe!!
Maybe it's because it's the last multi-part track they've released, or because it absolutely slaps when they played it last during the RevRad tour, but Forever Now is honestly one of the best Green Day songs ever. Top 8 for sure.
I still feel that regardless of production, Rev Rad is an overlooked masterpiece. That album to me will always be a, "if we were to die tomorrow, I'm going out screaming".
It's glorious and has a sense of finality to it and I'll always love it for that and it'll be my favorite Green day album because of it. I think its a high A tier.
Hot take but I think Rev Rad is their best album since American Idiot not Saviors. S tier at times
to be fair, if you saw Green Day in concert after the the unos,dos,tre albums came out, its like as if they were all just one album.
Hmm I wonder who inspired you to make this video John. Would be crazy if it was because of my ranking on the livestream the other day lmao
Ha! Well truth be told it's been on the calendar for awhile, but you and last week's chat definitely were part of the inspo to finish it!
@@ARTV- Lol I respect your ranking, and I think we can agree to disagree and that's okay. Revolution Radio changed my life, American Idiot changed yours and that's amazing, it's wonderful how music can do that for people. God bless you John
they put out father of all on my birthday...that was my reward for worshipping them my entire life
Jon, been watching you for a few years now and I really think you’d love the band Origami Angel. Check out their album Somewhere City. Its AMAZING.
For real, I love Nightlife, and Dos is my favorite of the 3 too!
my favorite band too!
Great Video! You think you will revisit the RHCP-Ranking? Given that 2 (really great) albums came out since 2016 and John is back, maybe you can update your ranking? I'm really interested, if your preception of their discography has changed with the comeback of John...
Yes!! Planned for later this year!
@@ARTV- awesome! Very much looking forward to it! Greetings from GER ✌️
Well shit I just found out that my dad had the same birthday as Kerplunk
Perfection: Dookie, Nimrod, American Idiot
Great: Kerplunk, Insomniac, 21st Century Breakdown, Warning, Rev Rad, Saviors
Good: 1039/Smooth, !Uno!, Trè!
Meh: ¡Dos! Father of All (even though there is a lot of songs on ¡Dos! that I really like, as well as maybe a few on FOA)
If the trilogy was one album with all the good songs on one album, I definitely think it could’ve been a great album
It would be cool if you ranked the looks of Billie Joe Armstrong Mika Durnt and Tre cool’s through their big eras (I love how the way Billie looks in 2009)
i’m going to watch them live for the first time in the summer, on the saviors tour, playing american idiot AND dookie 🤤
when i first heard saviors i did not like it but as i listened to it more i realized it's one of there best albums and is now in my top fives
Watching this ranking video is not a bad way for me to spend an early morning.
It's really interesting to see someone who got on board at 21st Century talk about this band. We have polar opposite views on what we like about them and what we merely tolerate.
Two of my favorite HIGHLY underrated GD tracks: the sweeping grandeur of “Last Night on Earth” from 21st Century Breakdown and the power pop perfection of “8th Avenue Serenade” from Tre.
On the flip side, one of my biggest gripes with 21st Century Breakdown, which would otherwise (musically) be my favorite Green Day album: “See the Light” is such a piss-poor, no-effort shoulder-shrug of a closer to what was up to that point such a sweeping and epic album.
1. 21 CB ( I love the beetle's/queen presence in this album. IDC if its an hour + I listen to it daily, and plus this is billies best vocal performance and i can't stop listening to live videos from that era.) A + 10/10
2. Warning (I love this album because of its uniqueness and Billie's strange lyricism and his mature delivery. I also still love how they still got rippers on it like castaway and fashion victim. Top 3: Deadbeat holiday, castaway, Misery)
3. Insomniac (I love how honest Billie is with his lyrics and Mike's insane bass performance!!!!!!!!, Top 3: Stuart & Ave., Brat, Arm. Shanks) A
4. American Idiot (An amazing story of characters I can relate to, and I agree with most of the political statements and how the instruments tie together to amplify the story, Top 3: Letterbomb, st.Jimmy, Homecoming) A
5. Nimrod ( A banger after banger after banger album is all i have to say, Top 3: Scattered, NGFL, and The Grouch) A
6.Saviors (A great return after FOAMF, even though not a clear form of a story, but still nothin but gas besides OEB, Top 3: Saviors, 1981, Strange Days) A -
7. Dookie (i like the lyrics and production but just doesn't resonate with me too much), Top 3: FOD, She, and WTP) B+
8. RevRad (a good return after the trilogy and rehab, Top 3: Outlaws, Forever Now, Too Dumb To Die) B +
9.Tre (A good closer album to me, love billie's voice in this record, Top 3: Brutal love, ALBNT, DRB) B
10. Dos (I like the uniqueness to it. Top 3: Stop when the red lights flash, stray heart, and ashley) B -
11.Uno (good job on sounding like their younger selves, still repetive tho) C+
12. Kerplunk (its a good start to their career, not my fave tho.) C+
13. FOAMF (its got some good ones but majority bad) D+
14. Shenanigans (it's alright) D+
15. 1039 / Smoothed Out Slappy Hours (I never grasped on to it really) D-
Insomniac is my favorite album of all time I can relate to the lyrics (except meth) feeling lost and pissed off about myself is pretty much how I’ve live especially armatage shanks and Stuart and the ave

just a couple of weeks ago I spent around 11 hours in 2 days ranking all of green day's songs, in order of how often I would listen to them. I know that the list is flawed (Most because Jesus of Seburbia is in the second to last rank) but I would highly recommend as I got to look back at all of my favorite green day songs, andfind a few hidden gems that I passed up on before!
I also know that my list was not perfect because if I'm being honest, I am not the biggest fan of American Idiot songs on their own.
My personal ranking:
1. Nimrod
2. Warning
3. American Idiot
4. Revolution Radio
5. 21st Century Breakdown
6. Dookie

12. 39/Smooth

My favorite is Warning as far as album but favorite song is still Whatsername hands down. Honorable mentions to Amy, Deadbeat Holiday, Longview, Misery, and King for a Day
I haven't heard all of them but my favorite has to be Warning
Also since you stopped doing individual reviews, does that mean we'll see more RANKED episodes, if so, what are the chances of seeing either The Cure or The Beatles ranked?
Sorry if this sounds pressurizing or forceful in any way, I'm just curious
I remember you saying you don't like Good Ridance from Nimrod. What do you think about that song now?
Opinion ain’t just gonna change on a song that old lol 👎
@@ARTV-it’s an okay song it’s just so overplayed that it’s been ruined for me lmao
@@mandamations I've never heard it before I finally got into it and I still absolutely love it. So glad, it didn't get ruined for me
@@ARTV-if you don’t like the insomniac version, please listen to the demo version from the Brain Stew single CD, its SO much better
Im also a Green Day superfan. Theyll always be the best band in the world to me!
International Superhits is the only Green Day must-have.
Love Green Day. They are my favorite band and I'm from their hometown of Pinole, CA. Though my list is in a bit of a different order I can't disagree with anything you said. I got into Green Day (and really caring about music as a whole) with 21st Century Breakdown so it has a special place in my heart even though I wouldn't call it my favorite.

LOVE 21st CB (I also love rock ballads and anthems lmao) It's a Melodic masterpiece
And I’m super duper excited for their summer tour Imma cry knowing I will be able to hear all of American idiot live IN FULL that news to me was a dream come true
AND DOOKIE! AND RANCID! AND THE LINDA LINDAS!
I'm not excited about the pumpkins tho. I hate that I'll have to see Billy Corgan.
@@alexallen6286 I mean I’m not well versed with the other bands but I’m stoked to see em all live!

Awesome video Jon, every time you talk about Green Day, it’s a great day.
As you share a birthday with Kerplunk, I share a birthday 17 days apart with Saviors in January…
Out of the whole 90s trilogy of albums when compared to dookie and nimrod, insomniac is hands down my favorite! Even though it’s hard to decide between the three

For me, 21st CB is the best. Its got some of Green Day's best tracks, my personal favorite story between the two rock operas, and its got Peacemaker, Last Night On Earth, and East Jesus Nowehere. It's my favorite and it's so damn good.
I'd probably say Jon was one of the people that fueled my middle school Green Day obsession. That being said: In the old Green Day ranked video, you said that Nimrod was very UNDERRATED. That statement pretty much made me listen closer to Nimrod and I now think that it's better than Dookie, so thanks Jon.
Although I do understand why it would go down one spot cause Dookie is just iconic.
You have Kerplunk on vinyl?! 😱
Yep! I have every album except Father of All on vinyl
@@ARTV- I was looking at 1039 and kerplunk for vinyls (my two favorite Green Day albums), but they were at least like $85 and I’m guessing it’s because they’re the last two records on independent labels.
Take the like but I would prefer a video on The Network if possible.
Man revolution radio is so underrated by Green Day fans. Everything people say about saviors I can honestly say about RR. Obviously some of my first Green Day songs are on there, but there are some great songs on there and it felt like there were new perspectives on life. This is my hot take I guess, but forever now is a top 3 Green Day song for me and RR is in my top 5 from them.
24:31 Ha wow that's actually insane
Speaking of *Shenanigans* listen to *Espionage* by Green Day, and then listen to *Bloody Mary* by The Living End [You'll notice The Living End's sticker on Billie's guitar at 18:10 ]. Almost identical, but who made the song first is anyone's guess.
I discovered Green Day for the first time in high school with the trilogy back in 2013 and absolutely loved it, but then felt weird when i realized everyone hated it haha
no matter what the video is about i will always click it if it mentions green day
Real commentary though, As someone who grew up with American Idiot and International Superhits being my first exposure, then going back to Dookie and playing it for 100+ hours, and THEN Finding Insomniac, I think I can safely say that Insomniac is my favorite Green Day album. Dookie has the incredible, lovable "Fuck it" attitude about it with a lot of sincerity. American Idiot has the world-stopping power of "Fuck you" political punk rock just at the right time. But Insomniac represents (to me) all those nights you spend in between those events. I think they REALLY perfected their craft with it, because to me there's not a single skippable song on the album. I may be talking out of my ass. Not out of nostalgia, but out of lived experience. That's just my take.
THIS. I also think it's incredible that you arrived at this opinion with the bias of hearing many more successful albums before this one, instead of someone as old as me having listened to it all in chronological order 😅
@Jane-pr3wu I appreciate it! I tend to like albums that make me feel more visceral feelings, and while all three that I mentioned do that, as a massive testament to Green Day's talent, Insomniac is the one that is just the most visceral, unapologetic, and honest in my opinion. But we're all spoiled for choice between 3 stellar albums along with the rest of the discography, do I appreciate all other opinions.
I agree with the list to a large degree. The clear difference for me is that I'd have Kerplunk in the top 3 and Warning barely cracking the top 10. I'd also have American Idiot 5th. But I was born in the 80's and Green Day had already made a huge impression on me long before American Idiot.
Im excited to see Green Day in Sofi Anniversary for 30th anniversary of Dookie 20 anniversary of American Idiot and Saviors tour
Jon the real question is - can you do a top 10 Green Day songs of all time list...
There’s a top 25 list that was put out a couple years back.
Things I personally would change
Father of all - F
Dos and Tre - D
Revolution radio -C
Did you guys know that Jon was born on the same day as Green Day's "Kerplunk"? Crazy.
I Love Nightlife
I fell in love with Green Day at age 11 in 1994 and have to say I hated every single album after Warning. That was until Saviour!
This will be the first time in 20 years I will go to a Green Day show and am finally excited about it again.
I refuse to believe there are adult fans who were not alive during American Idiot...
I feel like this list is pretty much just your nostalgia ratings. It has a lot to do with what stage of your life you were at the time when it released and how the sound resonated with your personality at the time. For me 39/smooth will always be number 1 because of its energy and youthful spirit. I had a band in high school and it was no where near as good as green day but I always daydream and think what if was.
