What?
The Offspring has been together for years and this is what kills them?
I loved them as a kid. Watched their recent music video and it was so bad I couldn't believe anyone's paying money for it. I think it's one if those tax fraud scams like where art can be sold for a lot of money but it's really just laundering money. The "band" is just a tax write off.
To be honest, all music sounds better when your naive.
I still like some of their tunes, Original Prankster for instance, but that may also be nostalgia.
Their self titled album from 1989 is actually a 10 out of 10 in my opinion. The last song on the album is probably the most rebellious and controversial songs of all time. So controversial I'm not even going to type the name of it and I'll encourage others not to type it either because it's a red light for the feds. Apparently the record label stripped the track off modern releases after 9/11 because it seemed unpatriotic to people at the time.
The song Tehran off that same album is also spectacular. 10 out of 10. It was later Re-recorded as Bagdad but the original sounds better IMO.
