[Lightning Rod]

I think Ignition Is very spécifique album who include very cool songs...but....
My Favorite Is AMERICANA.

[Mr. Noodles]

Ignition, Smash, and Ixnay.
Those are my favorites.

[Offspring-Junkie]

In my opinion they're all awsome (though I don't have the first one, so I can't tell if it's good or not), don't have a favourite one.

[Living in Chaos]

Ignition, Ixany on the Hombre, and Conspiracy of One

[Dexter_H]

Offspring !

[Forza]

Anyone who chose CO1 or Splinter should be shot.

Americana all the way :) And Smash and Ixnay too.

[Mr. Noodles]

In my opinion they're all awsome (though I don't have the first one, so I can't tell if it's good or not), don't have a favourite one.
You can listen to the Self-Titled album at offspring.com, under "Music".

[Whiplash]

CO1 all the way. please dont shoot me. :-(

[Call it an Obsession]

I voted them all thinking it wouldn't work... They're all too good to individually make the best. My opinion always changes all the time but at the moment i would say S/T is at the top of my list.

[bd007h]

Anyone who chose CO1 or Splinter should be shot.

Americana all the way :)

Americana is worse than CO1 and Splinter

[Lightning Rod]

Americana is worse than CO1 and Splinter

tru punx :mad: :eek: :cool:

[patoff10]

I put COO in 7th in my top 8 but do you really think that Come out swinging, Million miles away, Living in chaos, Special delivery, One fine day, All along, Conspiracy of one and Huck it are poppy songs ?!? :confused:

[no_way]

Self-titled (offspring)

[Ale_xandra]

my splinter album has got 24 tracks. i saw that the others have got 12. and in my opinion it's the best of all.

[no_way]

24 tracks? Where is that from? Twice every song?

[Ale_xandra]

13. bloodstains
14. pretty fly
15. why don't you get a job
16. want you bad
17. all i want
18. bloodstains (radio edition)
19. defu you
20. million miles away
21. the meaning of life
22. 80 times
23. autonomy
24. all i want (live)

you see, the tracks are older than the others

[no_way]

Aah I see.. I'd love to have it then. Although I have most of the songs in other albums, including covers and lives.

[Ale_xandra]

one question.
the cover i mean the book in front of the cd. are there any lyrics? beacause in my cover, there are just 2 pictures of the offspring

[Mr. Noodles]

one question.
the cover i mean the book in front of the cd. are there any lyrics? beacause in my cover, there are just 2 pictures of the offspring
Yes, the normal version does have a lyric sheet with it.

[Ale_xandra]

Yes, the normal version does have a lyric sheet with it.

ok, thank you

[Mr. Noodles]

ok, thank you
You're welcome.

[Nineteen Seventy Nine]

I voted for Ignition, Smash, and Conspiracy of One. Conspiracy of One has songs that I like better than 100% of Ignition.

[Joakoman]

Ignition, forever.

[randman21]

All of the albums are very close, in my book (i.e. I like my 8th favorite almost as much as my 1st). Americana takes the cake, though.

[Mr. Orange]

All of the albums are very close, in my book (i.e. I like my 8th favorite almost as much as my 1st). Americana takes the cake, though.
Your 8th favorite? ...there are only 7 albums. But I agree, Americana is my favorite as well.

[Mr. Noodles]

Your 8th favorite? ...there are only 7 albums. But I agree, Americana is my favorite as well.
8 if you include the Greatest Hits.

[Mr. Orange]

8 if you include the Greatest Hits.
Which I don't. It's not really an album, just a compilation. It's not listed there anyway.

[bd007h]

one question.
the cover i mean the book in front of the cd. are there any lyrics? beacause in my cover, there are just 2 pictures of the offspring

sounds like a bootleg

[Camilamazed]

Am I fucking nuts or has this question been asked before?

[Hypodermic_89]

Am I fucking nuts or has this question been asked before?
Both, I think :)

[patoff10]

I'm happy for Ignition :rolleyes:

[RageAndLov]

the reason i think ixnay is the best album is because ixnay has more than one songs which is connected(lack of a better word) to the title ixnay on the hombre. ixnay on the hombre means no to the man, a political title. unlike f.x. smash, ixnay got more than one song which is connected to the title; maybe its more than these songs but at least all i want, i choose, change the world, the meaning of life and pay the man(which was made for ixnay) are connected.

[offspringfanatic6]

Americana, smash, and conspiracy of one

[$ir. Jägermei$ter]

Ixnay on the hombre !!!!!!!!!!!!

[randman21]

I'm happy for Ignition :rolleyes:

I was just about to say that. It's a great 'un.

[offspringfanatic6]

Americana or smash

[Ninty Man]

Come On Ixnay... One More

[TheUSB]

Ixnay on the Hombre. It's got most of my favorite Offspring songs on it, and it "Mota" is my wrestling entrance theme.

[H1T_That]

Are you like Nacho Libre?

[Ninty Man]

Are you like Nacho Libre?


OMFG... that's so disgusting

[~mmmaaaGGGaaa~]

ignition roxxx:D

[Ninty Man]

IXNAY :eek:

[FrancoDaHui]

ixnay on the hombre, followed by ignition

[cool_dexter]

iginition is super
smash toooo

but in americana is best song ever and it's the kid's aren't alright

[pretty fly 88]

Wow, look at all the people that said Ignition. I guess I have to check out that album myself. I voted for Smash. I used to like Americana better, but Americana is just too pop, whereas Smash is a very laid-back, nice album.

[nameless]

i went for smash! as noodles once said "but ask me tomorow and i will tell you somethoing different" - or something along those lines!

[Jakebert]

U Fergot Gratest Hitz!!

[patoff10]

Go on Ignition !

U Fergot Gratest Hitz!!:confused: :confused:

[Manic Subsidal Boy]

U Fergot Gratest Hitz!!

its not an album

[Killboy]

IGNITION ROOOOCKS!!!

followed by Ixnay

[pretty fly 88]

U Fergot Gratest Hitz!!

Okay, first of all, a greatest hits CD is not an album, it's a compilation CD. Albums have all new music and new themes.

Secondly, if it were on there, everyone would've voted for it, which would've defeated the purpose of this thread.

[offspringdude17]

well i like all their cd's and their songs everything. but if i must vote i vote for smash.

[cool_dexter]

hey, can someone make poll
best offspring song
plz do it

[Mr. Noodles]

hey, can someone make poll
best offspring song
plz do it
I tried it with Bad Religion. Didn't exactly work right, so I had to make another for the songs I couldn't add.
You could always just do it yourself.

Didjy-

Wadju-

*headdesk*

[The Noose]

I can't really choose, you know? Every one of their albums are great, but if I really had to pick it would be Smash. Simply because of Nitro.:cool:

[Killer Dwarf]

Ixnay Album.

[Disclaimer]

IXNAY ON THE HOMBRE

[Floyd the Barber]

I've felt for a while now that Ignition is their most well-rounded, catchy, and satisfying album. Which is kind of weird because when I first listened to it I wasn't very impressed. It grew on me quickly.

I like all the Offspring's albums, but Ignition has the most great songs in my opinion.

[Self-Esteem]

Ixnay on the hombre :D

[no_way]

IXNAY on the hombre is absolutely not their best work, are you KIDDING me???

Whether Smash or Self-titled

[Smoky_Mc_Weed]

Secondly, if it were on there, everyone would've voted for it, which would've defeated the purpose of this thread.

i wouldn't

Smash rocks, but Ixnay On The Hombre is very good too, i vote both

[Jizzy Jeff Punk Man]

Smash is the best. That's all.

[no_way]

IXNAY on the Hombre had a lot of worthless songs and a lot of up-and-down songs. There were at least two songs that were worth the album. I still can't see what is in it that most of people like.

[Ninty Man]

IXNAY on the hombre is absolutely not their best work, are you KIDDING me???

Ixnay on the hombre is absolutely their best work

Are you fucking kidding me tipo argentino que no me cae mal?

[Ninty Man]

Right... I think that Something to believe in, It'll be a long time, So Alone and not the one worth smash price ¬¬

In Ixnay it's one bad song, lirycally... Don't Pick it up

[F@ BANKZ]

I voted Americana although Ignition is pretty damn close, i'm surprised it's not beating Smash, supposedly thanks to Pretty Fly and WDYGAJ it's put fans off, also i dont think Ixnay is the best, it is behind Ignition and Americana, of course this is just me

[offspringfanatic6]

smash, conspiracy of one, or Americana

[Eternal Yamcha]

Each album has its strong points and its weak points, simply put.

I put Ixnay on the Hombre because I personally enjoy more songs on that album than any others... But between all of them... It was a tough call, they're all pretty good.

[Peedr]

[brian.offspring]

smash for far..... :D

[TheUSB]

Are you like Nacho Libre?

No, I never saw that movie. I'm boycotting it.

[leibstandarte109]

I'm switching my vote to Ignition. I loved the energy and guitars on this album, and the "deep" and meaningful lyrics of songs like Dirty Magic, Get It Right and No Hero.

[Manic Subsidal Boy]

Ixnay's not bad but every album besides CO1 and Splinter kick's it's arse

[K1llboy Powerhead]

Currently my favourite albums are Smash and Splinter.

That's right, I said Splinter. I'm sorry to all the fans who would like to shoot me right now! :p

[darea]

My favourite album is Ixnay on the hombre
I new some of the songs slightly but its only in 98 that I bougth the album and I had actually dreamt of it (cover and all before I ever saw it) its really good and having an album with songs like : all I want, gone away and I choose it just so awesome, all the songs are good apart from those above I also like the meaning of life, amazed, mota, leave it behind, way down the line...change the world

but I think the best album is definately smash
First, its the album that made them really famous and its the album that made me know them, in my small village in france when I was about 9 years old. The songs are so great every single one of them if awesome except maybe what happened to you , although I like it too. its the best

[Night]

My favourite albums are Conspiracy of One and Americana. COO because it has my fave songs:) and cool sign, whicj became Offspring logo. Americana, because there're a lot of funny songs about american way of life:)

[zacsta]

you can pretty much rely on one of these polls for only about a few weeks at the most, because everyones mind always changes, at least mine does. i originally voted smash, but now i'd probably change it to ignition.
its cos theres 100+ offspring songs and you listen to an album or style for a while and think its the best, and then later you decide to listen to some other song thats been stuck in your head all day just to get the damn thing out of your mind, and be all like, wow! this songs awesome then you listen to the whole album and you claim it as the best, and the whole cycle repeats every few weeks or so.
it really depends on what mood your in.

Bingo ;):)

[German Andres]

I really can`t telll you which is the best album, I love everyone,although Ixnay on the Hombre isn`t as good as the others in my opinion...

[Grabbal]

It's gotta be Smash....

[F@ BANKZ]

For me it's still Americana even though my opinionh of it has lowered slightly in comparison to Ignition: which would be second

[German Andres]

I love every single album of The Offspring. But I think Ignition and the Self titled are the best.
I don`t have nothing against Americana. It has awesome songs (Have you Ever, TKAA, and my favourite song, Staring at the Sun) but it is also the most commercial one.
Commercial music=shit as well as pop

[Call it an Obsession]

Commercial music=shit as well as pop

By saying that, you're basically implying that any sort of music is shit since almost any song can randomly become popular.

[Agatio]

The best album is definetly American Idiot.

Dexter had some good vocals there.

[adombomb222]

Hands Down, Americana. No Question.

[Agatio]

Hands Down Americana. No Question.

I have never heard of "Hands Down Americana" before. Was it a rare b-sides album?

[ilovellamas]

That wasn't even remotely funny. It's pretty clear what he meant.

[0r4ng3]

Americana might not be the best, but it's certainly the best album to represent The Offspring. To me, it summarizes their entire career in one album, which I think is quite an achievement.

[adombomb222]

Americana might not be the best, but it's certainly the best album to represent The Offspring. To me, it summarizes their entire career in one album, which I think is quite an achievement.


Yes! It's a perfect summarization of the Offspring, it's what their all about.

[adombomb222]

I have never heard of "Hands Down Americana" before. Was it a rare b-sides album?


And you, you need to stop being a smart ass, because one day someone is going to beat you senseless.

[Agatio]

And you, you need to stop being a smart ass, because one day someone is going to beat you senseless.

An ass is a donkey, and I'm not a donkey.

[adombomb222]

Kid, you just have got to stop being such a bitch. Nothing that you have said has been remotely funny at all. Correcting people on their grammar gets you nowhere on this forums, trust me.

[Agatio]

Actually, a "bitch" is a female dog. I am a male human.

[adombomb222]

Ha ha, funny. [Not.]

[Agatio]

"Not" is not a sentence.

[adombomb222]

Do you even know anything about English? "[Not.]" Is an afterthought if you don’t know that much then you have no right to correct peoples English. Brackets can signal many things such as an afterthought. Which does not need to be a complete sentence.

[Floyd the Barber]

Let it go, man, he's obviously enjoying being a dipshit.

[adombomb222]

True .

[Agatio]

You put the period too late after "True". You suck.

[adombomb222]

That's because you need 10 characters in order to post a reply.

[adombomb222]

You put the period too late after "True". You suck.

By the way the period (.) goes inside the apprentices. And if you want truly correct English grammar the sentence should go as follows: “You placed the period with a space in between “true” and the period. You suck.”

[Sinister]

That's because you need 10 charters in order to post a reply.
No charters are required. Ten characters, however, make more sense.

And there's other stuff to correct, but I can't be bothered.

[adombomb222]

No charters are required. Ten characters, however, make more sense.

Yea I knew I spelt that wrong, I guess spell check didn't pick it up, thank you.

[darthdudeguy4]

Ixnay all the way

[ilovellamas]

By the way the period (.) goes inside the apprentices. And if you want truly correct English grammar the sentence should go as follows: “You placed the period with a space in between “true” and the period. You suck.”

You should not be giving lessons on grammar... "apprentices"?

[Sinister]

He might have been talking about himself (the apprentice), in a bizarre way.

[adombomb222]

I know I can't spell every word correctly; dictionary.com wasn't working so I just guessed that was the correct way to spell it.

[German Andres]

By saying that, you're basically implying that any sort of music is shit since almost any song can randomly become popular.

Not really. I`m not saying that all the songs which become popular are poppy. The groups become poppy.
You can`t deny that Americana has a very commercial style, totally different from their original style. The same as CO1.
They`ve left that music in the past (I want to believe). Splinter proves it, and is an awesome album!

[bouncingcoles]

i like CO1. i just think it has the best written songs

[tommilee]

+1
shoot him !!

:eek: but shoot everyone ! lol

whats wrong with CO1???

[ZagmenO]

CO1! It has a lot of character to it & their classic sound as well.

[Venezuelan_Nightmare]

I guess time ago i participate in a poll topic with this questions... but ok, i´ll vote (againt)...and is IXNAY ON THE HOMBRE

[IAmARevenant]

Well I only have 2 (Smash and Ixnay). Out of them I like Ixnay more, but I'll wait to vote untill I hear all the albums.

[ilovellamas]

Well I only have 2 (Smash and Ixnay). Out of them I like Ixnay more, but I'll wait to vote untill I hear all the albums.
Dang! When did you become a fan? You DEFINITELY need Ignition and Americana, I think (though many people might disagree on Americana). Are you planning on getting all of them, or not a big enough fan to bother with that and just want to hear them sometime?

[Splintergirl]

I think AMERICANA is the best album of offspring it´s pure punk!!!!!!!!!!!

[F@ BANKZ]

Another thread is back!

I agree, Americana rules
