Nimrod (stylized as "nimrod." on the label) is the fifth studio album by the American punk rock band Green Day. It was released on October 14, 1997 through Reprise Records. The album peaked at number ten on the Billboard U.S. charts, and achieved double platinum status, although it did not revive Green Day's sales to the level of Dookie. The album has sold 2,083,000 copies in the United States alone and over 5 million worldwide. Nimrod also achieved critical respect and yielded the acoustic hit "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)".
