The super-popular Green Day was originally part of the punk rock scene at 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, California. Its major label debut Dookie became a breakout success in 1994 and eventually sold over 10 million copies in the U.S. alone. As a result, Green Day was widely credited with popularizing punk rock in the US. Green Day's  follow-up albums, Insomniac, Nimrod and Warning reached double platinum, double platinum and gold status respectively. Its 2004 rock opera, American Idiot, reignited the band's popularity with a younger generation, selling 5 million copies in the U.S. 

The band has sold over 65 million records worldwide, including 22 million in the United States alone. They also have three Grammy Awards, Best Alternative Album for Dookie, Best Rock Album for American Idiot, and Record of the Year for Boulevard of Broken Dreams.
