    The Offspring have announced a 15th anniversary release of Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace.

    Today, The Offspring are thrilled to release the special limited-edition 15th-anniversary reissue package of their acclaimed record, Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace, out now via Round Hill Records/UMe.

Get the 15th-anniversary package of Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace now, HERE.

Available for the first time on vinyl in many years, this special edition of the album features a bonus 45 with two new live tracks recorded at Hellfest in 2022, re-imagined artwork on the cover, and art lithos for each song. A digital version of the record, which features new animated artwork, is available now on streaming services.

At the time of release, Rise and Fall, Rage And Grace cracked the top 10 of the Billboard 200 and went to #4 on Top Alternative Albums in the U.S., along with reaching #3 in Japan, #3 in Australia, #4 in Canada, and #6 in France. In addition, “You’re Gonna Go Far Kid,” the band’s #1 most streamed track with over 1.9 billion global streams across streaming services, is featured on the album. To this day, it continues to be one of the band’s most illustrious records, and the RIAA recently awarded it a Gold Certification.

Off the heels of a SOLD-OUT European tour, The Offspring are currently gearing up for the U.S. leg of their Let The Bad Times Roll Tour, featuring special guests Sum 41 and Simple Plan. Produced by Live Nation, the 24-city tour will kick off on August 1 at White River Amphitheatre in Auburn, WA, making stops across the U.S. in Irvine, Phoenix, Atlanta, Tampa, St. Louis, and more before wrapping up in Mansfield, MA at Xfinity Center on September 3. Tickets are available now HERE.

Frequently regarded as one of the best rock bands of all time, The Offspring have garnered a reputation for its unmistakable sound and social comment. The multi-platinum band first achieved worldwide success in the 90’s with the release of their album Smash, which sold over 11 million copies. Following that, they continued to release hit after hit, popularizing rock at a mainstream level. Throughout their career, they’ve sold over 40 million albums, toured arenas, and built a massive fan base globally. The group is also currently working on new music.

    Loved this album as a teen, but kinda lame that it’s only live bonus tracks

    Aaaachem!

    They've been barely able to cobble together a full record without multiple joke tracks and "re-imaginings" for 20 years. They aren't exactly sitting on a treasure trove of B-sides.

    Yes, but have you tried Dexter's Hot Sauce?

    Edit: After writing this, I discovered there actually is a brand of hot sauce called Dexter's Hot Sauce (but not this Dexter, classic mix up), so I need to be more specific. I'll try again:

    Yes, but have you tried Gringo Bandito Hot Sauce?

    Die rad.

    Offspring lost my interest once Splinter came out. Smash, Ixnay, and Conspiracy of One were great when they came out. Americana, yet super popular, was a step too commercial for me.

    Holy cow, 15 years.

    I really enjoyed Splinter and got to see them live after that came out, with Atom Willard in the drums. But that's where I drew the line with them.

    little old lady Prestigious

    I was huge into The Offspring in 2008 and remember feeling disappointed by this album when it came out, although I did really like “Hammerhead” and “Trust in You”. Gonna have to give the full thing a spin this weekend.

    This band was cool up until the Greg K drama... I liked everything until then, and the last album (the first without him in the band) was a disappointment.

    Their best days are long behind them, but I’ll always have a soft spot for this band. Huge part of my teenage years

    Oh yeah, Wal-Mart had a monopoly on that market. The best one is Happy Holidays, You Bastard, which is just an instrumental except for the line “I’ll never talk to you again” right at the very end lol
