The evolution of a musician or group of musicians is always a fascinating journey to witness. While the changes are seemingly subtle, it’s always fun to go back over the anthology of an artist’s musical works and see how far they’ve come, and how different they are from the beginning.

The topic came to mind Monday when I downloaded 21st Century Breakdown the latest effort from Green Day, arguably my favorite band and perhaps the only one pushing the musical envelope these days. Not that they’re creating some great new classification of music beyond the one they’re responsible for already (punk music by people who can play and sing) but I find today’s rock scene rather stale.
