| | the old offspring | Benji_is_hott | so i still love them anways
"pretty fly 4 a white guy" | brandnew17 | that was one of their worst songs and same
with hit that | Benji_is_hott | ya thats the truth, but the video was quite
weird what was up with that? | brandnew17 | | i don't know | Benji_is_hott | video was cool i like it.
As for good or old i like both as much as
each other.
The newest album from track 5 onwards are all
ace, and can be quite heavy sometimes.
I like conspiracy of one the most tho.
All this but my fav songs are Pay the Man and
Spare me the details | fatally_yours | spare me the details is alright but i like
the older stuff like blackball
and beheaded
anyways there still good | Benji_is_hott | yeah, i like "Beheaded" and
every single 90's "punk"
band got crap inected into their
brains...every single one of em..."Da
Hui" is one of their better new
songs...and "When You're In
Prison" thats a funny song... | BJKing_NoMore1039 | i do like the old stuff but ive allways loved
offspring for their funny songs so i still
like the new stuff especially 'spare me
the details' | littlepurplemel | eh, the only album I didn't care for was
Ignition. Everything else is great though | ScreamsofaTwistedMind | | | |
