• Track Listing

How do you follow a #2 smash full of instant pop-punk classics? Just do it again, right? That’s a tall order, but we’re talkin’ about the unfairly talented musicians/songwriters of Green Day here, who, indeed, followed 1994’s "Dookie" with this #2 album in ’95. For its 25th anniversary, Green Day remastered "Insomniac" and expanded it to double vinyl with eight rare or unissued live performances (Prague ’96): versions of the album’s hits "Geek Stink Breath," "Brain Stew," "Jaded" and "Walking Contradiction" and of the album’s songs "86," "Brat" and more (side D is an etching). The icing on the cake: the album’s cover art (a stunning piece by collage artist Winston Smith, famed for his Dead Kennedys/Alternative Tentacles work) is printed here on prismatic silver foil! Reprise.
