It was, but American Idiot wasn't an evolution in sound it was a one off concept album that absolutely crushed and gave them an entire second generation fanbase.

I remember going to that show at the Dome and Mike Bell who reviewed it and he was so right as I witnessed it, too - young teens singing along to every American Idiot song and kind of just bobbing along without singing to their biggest hits like Basketcase and When I come around. It was fascinating.
