Green Day: Horseshoes and Hand Grenades (2009)

Green Day enjoyed success with American Idiot. As a result, they decided to continue with rock operas and released 21st Century Breakdown. The album is broken into three parts. The third act is "Horseshoes and Hand Grenades." The main characters have to deal with the challenges facing America, and Detroit, in the post-911 world. The song merges classic rock, arena rock, and punk.
