Americká punk rocková kapela Green Day vznikla v roku 1987 a preslávila sa albumom Dookie (1994), ktorého sa len v USA predalo viac ako 10 miliónov kópií. Skupinu tvoria spevák a gitarista Billie Joe Armstrong, basgitarista Mike Dirnt a bubeník Tré Cool.
Výročný box set American Idiot pripomína dvadsiate výročie siedmeho štúdiového albumu kapely, ktoré vyšlo v roku 2004 a získalo cenu Grammy. Sada na ôsmich farebných vinylových LP a dvoch Blu-ray diskoch obsahuje pôvodný album, B-strany, demosnímky, živé nahrávky z koncertu v newyorskom klube Irving Plaza (21. septembra 2004), dokumentárny film Heart Like A Hand Grenade, vystúpenia pre BBC a nový 110-minútový dokument venovaný albumu. Bohaté balenie ponúka celý rad zberateľských doplnkov — booklet, nášivky, smaltové odznaky a nálepky.
