The second mainstream review of Green Day's forthcoming album, 21st Century Breakdown has been posted and unlike the Spin review, Rolling Stone gave the record 4.5/5, saying:

21st Century Breakdown is even better, so masterful and confident it makes Idiot seem like a warm-up. But there are no nine-minute excursions this time and Green Day focused their ideas into their sharpest, toughest tunes. [...] All over the album, Green Day combine punk thrash with their newfound love of classic-rock grandiosity - one moment they're quoting Bikini Kill, the next they're wailing away like it's the final minute of"Jungleland."



The ballads are their glossiest ever and don't think for a minute they don't love the idea of pissing people off with that. But the highlights are the rage-fueled punk anthems. mostly they're singing about America waking up from an eight-year nightmare.
