Fix You is fine but AIHLIY is really good I love that track, I wouldnt skip Fix You before but I wouldnt go to it to listen to like with AIHLIY.
Slim Pickens should get a serious look, it's really catchy and has the "dance f*cker dance!" line. It's not like All I Want was more radio friendly than this song. It would do well with the rock/alt...
what do the Spanish parts mean?
I like the original more but I appreciate the new twist on it on DGB.
The new lyrics added to the chorus are cool, but I miss that rockin guitar part right before "pull the shades..." it's fun to...
I liked it after the first listen, gave it another and I like it even a bit more, even OC Guns which I couldnt stand the first time is sounding pretty cool. Nice diversity and AWESOME punk songs. I...
Hmm interesting, I thought RAFRAG was better accepted, I really like it, anyway:
1. Ixnay
2. Smash
3. Americana
4. Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace
5. Ignition
6. Days Go By
7. Conspiracy of...
ok, well done Offspring. I had lost faith after Splinter, even Co1 was not bad but didnt fit with Offspring for me. RAFRAG was a great album that restored my faith and this is a good follow up.
...
wow, Dividing by Zero seriously sounds like an Ignition song, and Slim Pickens sounds like a bad@$$ Americana era song. These are great head banging tunes!
I'm so happy the Offspring got their...
from being the ones I skipped to the ones I listen to the most:
takes me nowhere
fix you
rise and fall
and for some reason my least favorite is now Trust in You, I think its bc its similar...
That is a great video. I also really like this one from 94 of come out and play... they were so fricken indie and punk-rock.... not that they rock any less now but smash-era was def their prime
...
I agree. Yeah Splinter did not sell badly. a Gold record is something to be proud of. They only had two singles off that CD too, Hit that and CGMHAY. I really do hope that sales pick up once YGGFK...
this isnt as bad as everyone is saying. Nice little mix. Of course I prefer to the original but yeah interesting Id like to hear more songs mixed with like this
from billboard:
"The Offspring's first album in five years, "Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace" (Columbia), debuts at No. 10 with 46,000. The veteran rock act's 2003 album "Splinter" peaked at No. 30....
it started at #5. YGGFK is doing well in the alternative itunes sales still
billboard noobs! hahah jk but yeah when a CD comes out on a Tuesday, you wait till the thursday of the NEXT week to see how it did, this is how it works for every album. Sometimes on the following...
I like ur idea, creative, its good stuff. I cant think of anything off the top of my head, but RF,RG is one of their cooler titles for sure
YGGFK is already a mini hit and it just first came out
Id also love to see Kristy and Stuff is Messed Up, I dont know how they edit songs in ur town but here in OC on KROQ when they edit the...
I totally agree w/ u, I dont understand why more ppl dont see how good of a radio single this song is
But yeah, YGGFK will be a hit for sure, I almost wish it was the first single I think it would...
here in OC they just distort the "fucker" so u can hear it but not every sound, the point gets accross
I wonder how it will do in US... i hope better than Splinter, which started at #30 and greatest hits that started at #8, both went on to go Gold tho. I remember tho Hit That didnt even have a video...
Rise and Fall has really grown on me. I like it better than American Idiot now tho I didnt at first.
I think the similarity is intentional, Id love to hear Dexter talk about it. I was thinking...
oh oops i didnt know there was a thread just for reviews sorry
btw, I dont agree with her "they dont take them selves too seriously" remark, bc like pretty much all of their songs have a serious message, but its great that KROQ shows so much love to the...
Check this out, she rocks:

The offspring is one of those bands that you can always count on for a bangin' good time live. They...
