The Offspring is a Punk/nu-metal band that was formed in the early 80s by Dexter Holland (vocals), Kevin Wasserman (guitarist), Greg Kriesel (bassist), and Ron Welty (drummer). In 1989, they released their first self-titled album, which featured hits like, Jennifer Lost the War, Black Ball, and Beheaded, however this was only the beginning of The Offspring's success, and it sold over 100,000 copies. In 1993, The Offspring released their second album, entitled "Ignition". Ignition sold over 500,000 copies, and featured awesome hits like, Dirty Magic, Kick Him When He's down, and Burn it up. In 1994, The Offspring released their third album entitled, "Smash", which sold over 2 million copies, and allowed The Offspring to tour a lot. Smash featured amazing hits like Self-Esteem, Come out and Play, and Bad Habit. In 1997, The Offspring released yet another greatly successful album called, Ixnay on the Hombre. It featured great hits like Gone Away, All I want, and The Meaning of Life. The album went Multi-platinum and sold out everywhere. This album, allowed The Offspring to tour even more.

Americana featured amazing singles like Pretty Fly for a White guy, The Kids Aren't Alright, and Why Don't You Get a Job? Americana allowed The Offspring to tour almost as much as they wanted. In 2000, The Offspring released Conspiracy of One, which had sold so many copies, recieved the platinum plus award, and allowed The Offspring to tour as much as they wanted. Conspiracy of One featured the incredible hit singles, Original Prankster and Want You Bad. After The Offspring finished touring. They began working on their seventh album.

| | i thought they died for a while....but i guess the plugged the life support back in...... | fedup | | I don't know if you meant that to be insulting, but anyway, they do rock, and Splinter rules. | SilencetheChildren | | Grr...and by the way...The offspring are not punk....GRRR..... | SilencetheChildren | i didnt mean nething in a bad way...i like them
| fedup | | silencethechildren, wat style of music are they then dumbass? | AIC4LIFE | | offspring are kool coz they play all types of music. they got punk, alternative, ska..... (i don't know any others but i'm sure they're there too) | BOG | they r indie-punk... either way they r rockin' the whole backup vocals makes them hu they r as a band, thats what makes them different, all the wooaah's and stuff...
BUCKET... | BUCKET | | Y'all are so awesome...The OFFSPRING is my most fav band. They kick ass:) indie punk they are but its awesome, i wish my band sounded like that:) | NoodleHead09 | | offspring r not punk!!! | i_heart_emo_boys187 | As an obsessed Offspring fan, I can safely
say that I'm completely insulted that that
simple plan slut would even say such a thing.
The Offspring helped make punk. Simple Plan
and all those other asshole bands are just
destroying it. If I could find a way to kill
you I would. You stupid broad. You need to
get your damn head out of your ass and put
some headphones on that are attached to a
REAL punk/rock CD, such as Smash, or
Ignition. Not that simple plan bull shit. Go
die seriously, because now you've just
pissed me off..... asshole | interstellar | Why are people saying that Offspring aren't
punk?...Of course they are! What the
fuck!?..What else would they be? Why does
everyone go for all these other little
sub-genres? Punk is Punk there's nothing
else. Not, Ska-Punk, or Indie punk crap or
anything like that, keep it simple people...
Sorry, i just had to say that... | Hellz_Hunny | Yeah I could not agree more with Hellz Hunny.
To check out my band go to
http://www.interstellarband.cjb.net go to
the bios section to see a pic of me | interstellar | the offspring is definetly not the best punk
band, they're good, but not the best, if
you're looking for the best try AFI, or the
sex pistols, or T.S.O.L | BLASTT | Yeah, i feel the same really, they're a good
band but not exactly the best... | Hellz_Hunny | Offspring is a really good band. Their
records are awesome. I consider them to be
Punk-Rock. | riff_master | The Offspring have more fucking punk in one
little pinky of theirs than Simple Plan or
Story of The fucking Year do in their entire
bodies...I believe that the Offspring and
Green Day opened many doors for these
so-called punk bands that are out today... | BillieJoeKing1039 | | *...Year does... | BillieJoeKing1039 | Finally someone that has their shit together.
I completely agree with
"BillieJoeKing" on this one. The
Offspring has been kicking ass since the mid
to late 80's and have produced 7 great
albums. Simple Plan blows hard kids, Story of
the year does as well for that matter. All
you teenie boppers that like simple plan and
bands like that, are more interested with
which lead singer's the cutest and which
band member has the hardest stomach. Well two
words for you: FUCK YOU. You are dumb little
fucks that need to get your heads out of your
asses and realize that SIMPLE PLAN SUCKS ASS
AND ARE NOT PUNK AT ALL. Dammit people piss
me off | interstellar | yeah I'm with interstellar on this
thing...yeah people like that piss me off as
well! | BillieJoeKing1039 | yea umm i forgot wut band im writing abou
lmao owell
| darkchild907 | o yea now i remmebr they are
awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! | darkchild907 | 'The Offspring have more fucking punk in
one
little pinky of theirs than Simple Plan or
Story of The fucking Year do in their entire
bodies...I believe that the Offspring and
Green Day opened many doors for these
so-called punk bands that are out

That's so damn true, all these stupid pop
punk bands out now are just desperate, and
will never be like Offspring or green day, or
any of the classics | hellz_hunny | | | |
