Green Day

We all know, or have come to know, Green Day for their songs usually telling us to rebel against the herd of dunces that seem to be running this country into the ground, as in Warning:

or in American Idiot:

Both of which tell us to rebel against what the government tells us to do if it seems against what you want to do, American Idiot also telling us to rebel against the obviously limited information that the media, weather left or right, always seems to be leaving a majority of the info out. Green Day came to main-streem popularity in the 1990's due to the main-streem success of their song Good Riddance (Time of Your Life):

This song never ceases to make me laugh because when it came out the song was on every mix tape for a particularly sad moment, such as graduations, but what people don't ever realize is that the song was the lead singer of Green Day, Billy Joe Armstrong's way of telling his girlfriend off after she dumped him. Well 25 years after formation and 15 years after their big commercial break through Green Day is still at it, their American Idiot Tour started off on March 13 in Los Angeles and has a few more dates in California, Arizona and Texas while at the same time moving throughout the United Kingdom.
