Green Day’s iconic 1994 album Dookie has been celebrated in nearly every way imaginable — until now. Under the umbrella Dookie Demastered and in collaboration with BRAIN, each of the project’s 15 tracks have been incorporated into a series of random household objects, including a Teddy Ruxpin doll, a doorbell, a toothbrush and even an answering machine.
“Instead of smoothing out its edges and tweaking its dynamic ranges, this version of Dookie has been meticulously mangled to fit on formats with uncompromisingly low fidelity,” reads an in-on-the-joke release announcing the news. “The listening experience is unparalleled, sacrificing not only sonic quality, but also convenience, and occasionally entire verses. It’s Dookie, the way it was never meant to be heard.”
