Best Rock Album (Vocal or Instrumental. Includes Hard Rock and Metal.) The Delivery Man Elvis Costello & The Imposters [Lost Highway Records] American Idiot Green Day [Reprise Records] The Reason Hoobastank [Island Records] Hot Fuss The Killers [Island Records] Contraband Velvet Revolve
Green Day - American Idiot. No other mainstream modern punk rock band can make a Punk Opera. They are heads and tails above the rest of the (crap) competition (Blink 182, Good Charlotte etc) and this album is the best example of it, listen to the song Jesus of Surbubia which is a great punk opera track.
