Default Green Day...great band? or American idiots?

ok, well, I thought I would post this just for some feedback...I recently saw them live here in Canada, and I have to say, that the place was bigger than the fan turn out, and that they are starting to resemble some selling out qualities...however, I think that every song and album were amazing...since they have such a clean sound anyway, even their first recording was real professional like.
1,000 Slappy hours-breakthrough album
kerplunk-quite roughter, featuring an illegal cover of knowlege by operation Ivy, but they did not damage to the song...
Dookie-many popular and well written songs playing with the way ppl are today and perceive punk
Insomniac-a slightly darker album with some more desolate lyrical content
Nimrod-a growing point for them, actually every album was really, since they have been a band 17 years....but almost a looking back sense of regret and growth.Take back a rougher song and a song with strictly music just to sooth the soul...lol!
Minority-a clean, and experemental album with a jewish medley and as on every album something slow and acoustic
American idiot- there seems to be no growth to the music in this one except lyrically of course...AI guess trying to get back to their punk roots, but failed...still, a very good album indeed.

Well, that is what I thought of them so I would like to hear your feedback....
