Green Day - Dookie

Though t.he album was never too serious, it had it's moments of angst, anger, & deepness to it, Green Day wasn't created by a major label, t.hey paid their dues for years before hitting it big and were mainstays at Gilman street for years. Maybe thats why t.his wave of punk had a bit more creditbility t.han, the current wave we hear now, but Dookie and t.hat mid 90's era remain a landmark year just like 1977, it made people remember, and get a smaii taste of punks glory days.
