They are widely credited with popularizing mainstream interest in punk rock in the United States. Their major-label debut album, "Dookie," released in 1994, was a massive success, selling over 20 million copies in the U.S. and winning a Grammy Award. Some of their other successful albums include "Insomniac," "Nimrod (Green Day)," and the rock opera "American Idiot," which was later adapted into a Broadway show.
