I want to get into some more bands, who kind of sound like the offspring. So what are some good bands that are kind of like the offspring?
offspring don't really sound like other bands... but i guess if you like their early stuff you may like TSOL :)
the Vandals (pretty much anything from "Live Fast, Diarrhea" through "Look What I Almost Stepped In" is at least decent, but only occasionally Offspring-y)
AFI (they're...alright. Some songs are really cool, others just drive me insane. Again, only occasionally Offspring-y)
TSOL (early Offspring sounded a lot like early TSOL, but I don't remember anything by them)
Sum 41 (Still Waiting sounds like an Offspring song, dunno much else by them)
then there's the standard Pennywise, Bad Religion, etc.

what does TSOL stand for?
True Sounds of Liberty or True Sons or something like that. I'm pretty sure you'll find everything under TSOL though.

Bad Religion, Rancid, Social Distortion, and Dead Kennedys are all sortof more modern sounding with that alternative edge, though. Pennywise and NOFX not as much, but they have it too. I don't know what they are, but you could look up the band Atom Williard played for before he came to The Offspring (not Alkaline Trio, but maybe others).

i dont think Rancid sound like Offspring at all. well the earlier stuff maybe.. i'd say Social Distortion sound pretty much like Offspring...?

i know they don't really sound like Offspring, but if you like Offspring there's a pretty big chance you'll like Rancid too though...

I think that Offspring goes from Bad Religion music. These are very similar bands.
