Green Day vocalist/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong said “Basket Case“ is about his struggle with anxiety; before he was diagnosed with a panic disorder years afterward, he thought he was going crazy. Armstrong commented that at the time, “The only way I could know what the hell was going on was to write a song about it.“
“Basket Case“ was one of the songs producer Rob Cavallo heard when he received Green Day’s demo tape. He ended up signing the band to Reprise Records in mid-1993. Green Day and Cavallo recorded the version of “Basket Case“ released on the trio’s major label debut Dookie between September and October 1993 at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, California.
