Bad opinions • Page 212

Last time I talked about the offspring Jason subtweeted me in a news post Because I said something about their influence being overstated

They're bad

 

They were fundamental in the success of Epitaph but I don't think they were responsible for much artistic influence, hardly one of the more unique/important bands of that wave.

 

i couldnt tell you a single offspring song

 

Not that it was even a unique or important wave

 

"Gone Away" and "The Kids Aren't Alright" are the only two Offspring songs I'm particularly enthusiastic about.

 

That dude's voice is nails on a chalkboard to me

 

I like Americana, but that's it.

 

The Who suck and Quadrophenia is a snore, especially compared to the albums released in that time by their peers

 

Kenneth comes to life

 

The Offspring's Smash is an iconic 90s album. I don't care what anyone says.

This song is pure ace

 

This.

 

I'm late to the Thrice talk, but yeah, I tried really hard to get into them this year but I just can't. I think they're okay all around but nothing about them actually makes want to listen to them ever.

 

I only know You're Gonna Go Far, Kid from the Offspring which is the most cliche song of theirs to know but man that song is a fun time.

 

Never cared too much about The Offspring but whenever that one song came on in Crazy Taxi I'd get so amped lol

 

New Thrice LP is their best imo but I am more personally attached to Beggars

Illusion and Identity aren't good though. And I don't care for M/M in the slightest

 

You are in the right Thread then No harm

 

I thought Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace was pretty good. You're gonna go far kid and Half-Truism were really good singles.

WUT

WUT

Bingo

Bingo

 

Offspring were in Idle Hands so they have that going for them

 

Just the sport.

 

Speaking of Dallas Green I'd kill for a new Alexisonfire record. Old Crows/Young Cardinals is one of my fav records out of their genre.

 

Make Maylene great again

 

@theagentcoma wrong Dallas

 

hahaha yeah completely wrong

 

Magna Carta Holy Grail is one of Jay-Z's best albums, IMO. I don't know if this is really an unpopular music opinion but I'm basing this off the mixed reviews I read.

 

Is it unusual for people to have taken a good while to get into Thursday because of the guy's voice?

I mean I really like them now but it's taken a few years of only occasionally listening to them in little bits before I could get on board with them.
