Ever wonder where Green Day was inspired? They ripped off almost every chop from Seattle's Rusty Willoughby and Flop who borrowed a thing or two from Cheap Trick, who were inspired by the three guitar attack of Australian surf-rockers Radio Birdman. Originally in Pure Joy (good luck finding that album) this was one of Flop's last efforts The Fall of the Mopsqueezers from 1992, I especially recommend Sister Anne:

I never knew that about Lanegan, that's quite disappointing. Then again we're all in ass in some ways or another 
I've never been into punk much and I know there's lots of bands I could have also listed for the "Grunge" scene or so they were dubbed.
Green Day .......... Not a fan.
