You will get Tom’s effort on First Date but for the entire set list, and you will like it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smash is a great album and they have some awesome singles. The guitar riffs just perfectly embody a fusion of California punk rock/surf rock, like the riff in the Kids Aren’t Alright. I’ve seen them live a couple times and they put on a good show. A top 10 pop-punk band of all time, easily. Telling how you didn’t mention anything post Americana. It’s like I said; Smash, Ixnay, & Americana. The rest can get in the fucking bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want You Bad could be used as an example of how to make a perfect pop punk single imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 It’s a shame they’re stuck playing the singles. I’m a fan of First Date, ATSM, Miss You and Rock Show but I don’t need to hear them live again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bad news is the guys personally believe what you wrote and stick to it. It’s stupid. (I know they’re signed to Sony or some shit but they aren’t being forced to do anything like the old days).

Nosferatu Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 Offspring are one of those bands I love for their older stuff but I got bored of them. They never really changed their sound or style or anything. They've always been a bit samey for me. The likes of blink & Green Day progressed throughout their careers, although in Green Day's case their songwriting styles progressed rather than their sound IMO. American Idiot was great for it. Warning had a slight change but I wasn't a fan of that album tbh. Green Day's last album was the biggest change they've ever done but it was just a trash album for me I can't get tired of some of Offspring's songs though. Hammerhead is a fucking bop and my favourite by them. Their last album had a couple of good songs too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, especially for a band like Offspring where the music sucks most of the time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Chips Posted February 28, 2023 Report Share Posted February 28, 2023 I used to be a big fan of the Offspring, but they lost my respect after they pulled scummy tactics with Greg K and kicked him out of the band (which led to a lawsuit: https://www.nme.com/news/music/offspring-remaining-members-deny-ex-bassist-allegations-lawsuit-arguments-no-basis-fact-2545405) 43 minutes ago, just_bringing_good_chats said: their last album aside of maybe 1-2 song was awfull, sounded like a weird quickly duck taped together compilation of b-sides Probably cause Greg K is no longer in the band... I'll say though... It's a shame that The Offspring was returning to form with Days Go By (more so these two songs) Then after Greg K was forced out they started to do the softer stuff again... Not going to bother linking to stuff from their last album, but between the stuff on their last album and that slow (lacking in punk) Christmas cover song. They seemed to have fallen off. So I have mixed feelings on The Offspring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
