Actually, most of the songs on AI aren't overtly political.
The most political are the title track, and Holiday. Most of the others, while there are a million allegories you can pull out of them, aren't nearly as overtly political. As for saying it's not Green Day, I don't really care either way. It's an amazing album, and by far their best. Dookie is a really good record, but I don't think it's better then AI, in fact I think it's a very close race for their second best record between Dookie and the WAY UNDERRATED Warning.

Fair enough. I listened to Blink and Green Day when I was younger. Never listen to it anymore now. It was just a phase for me.
