Nimrod (album)
|
Nimrod is the fifth album by the punk rock band Green Day, released on October 14, 1997. Catching the band in the middle of a minor commercial slump after the less-than-stellar sales of Insomniac, Nimrod entered the US charts at a respectable #10, yet benefitted greatly from the surprise hit "Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)", enabling the album to reach double-platinum.
As of June 2005, Nimrod has sold 1.9 million units in the US.
