Green Day 'The Studio Albums 1990-2009' to be released

In advance of the release of their new ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, and ¡Tré! album trilogy, Green Day will look back on their career with the release of the eight-CD boxed set The Studio Albums 1990-2009 on August 27th.

The collection treads the band’s meteoric journey from their 1990 debut, 1,039/ Smoothed Out Slappy Hours, through Kerplunk (1992), Dookie (1994), Insomniac (1995), Nimrod (1997), Warning (2000) and American Idiot (2004) to 2009’s 21st Century Breakdown.

The set features each album in an individual CD paper-sleeve with original artwork, housed in a clamshell box. All eight albums are neatly packaged together in one place, giving the listener a sharp, sizzling slice of punk rock history and an in-depth look at the band’s evolution.

Green Day is currently preparing for the release of their trilogy of new albums — ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, and ¡Tré! — on September 24th; November 12th and January 14th, 2013, respectively.
