I actually bought TOYPAJ at Sam’s Club when it came out and for legit 4-5 years I thought those dirty short songs were just fun instrumentals.
You do know the “complaints” are that it was censored right? Not anything about the noise/quietness of the record.
THE OFFSPRING Has Six Songs 'Mostly Done' For Next Studio Album Oh man, I bet it's on track for a 2030 release!
Former Members Of MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES, THE OFFSPRING, SMASH MOUTH Launch THE DEFIANT, Share Debut Single I didn't know where else to put this, but ugh.
I can't find anything about the others, but Dicky infamously is and Pete left The Offspring over it - but that was less "anti-vax" and more to do with a personal health condition. But the name "The Defiant"... given the context... naaaahhh.
Doesn't mention it in the article but there is additional percussion by those dudes that wouldn’t move their illegally parked boat, jumped a security guard over it, and then got their asses kicked.
yeah the song is lame, well like the lyrics, but the music isn't half bad! will check out more if they release more
In better news, I went to the Offspring tour a few nights ago and it was a fucking blast. Simple Plan was really fun and it was nice to check them off my list of pop-punk bands that I've seen live, Sum 41 fucking blew everyone else off the stage like they always do, and the Offspring were really fun, and so much better live than I remembered from the last time I saw them like 10 years ago Really good time
To be fair, a lot of the things that held up the recording/release of LTBTR are mostly cleared up now. (Greg K. lawsuit I believe was settled out of court, now having a record label contract, and covid and it's related restrictions pretty much done, etc)
THE OFFSPRING Completes Work On 11th Studio Album: 'It's Done' It feels entirely possible that we'll have a new Offspring album this year. Really hoping for something at least on the level of RFRG.
I’ll always have a soft spot for these guys. Every album has at least a few songs I can get down with
