The We Never Have Anymore is not really incel. Incels don't have sex at all.
TKAAR is just growing up in a poor neighborhood. Literally watched this song playout where I grew up and it was fucked up. It's not pull yourself up, it's get out if you can.
Ah alright, great explanation thanks. I can see the reasoning. Offspring is a childhood/teenage favorite of mine (fell of after Americana) so very curious how people have got those impressions.
This.
I get it, I get it. Look- as much as I personally think of The Offspring's high point as Smash and Ixnay, the reality is that a lot of people know them for their hits on Americana and then even younger generations know them for "You're Gonna Go Far Kid". I worked with a lot of 20-25 year-olds who knew them as "the band that does that dance fucker dance song".
It's shockingly good. I brought it to my office and it didn't survive the week. My office manager made it a regular purchase from then on.
wut?
I'm realizing that I only listened to Conspiracy of One (brother had it)--then I discovered Ignition, and the S/T throughout middle school/HS. Maybe time to actually check out the rest of the discography.
Whoa. You started with their least popular albums and I kind of respect it. BTW Ignition was a treat to discover for the first time. The world enjoyed their insane triple success of Smash/Ixnay/American but I was working my way backwards through their older albums and god damn Ignition is just some good, old school Cali punk with a tinge of that 80's punk sound. Session, Kick Him When He's Down, Dirty Magic- I loved that record.
As long as you can adjust to the Offspring's cleaner production sound that started with Americana, I would argue that every Offspring album until recently is mostly good. My only caveat is that they tend to pad otherwise solid albums like Splinter with their "joke songs" like parodies and the token pop song. Even if they make me laugh the first time, I'm probably going to skip them on subsequent listens.
I have no insider information on this, but I have a feeling he made up the part about a doctor telling him that he shouldn't get the vaccine. Just a feeling based on his other posts.
To my knowledge, only the Jansen vaccine has had any ties to it, and the sample size was so small we've never actually known if it's just a coincidence. Even if we somehow believe the vaccines could cause syndrome (keyword: syndrome, it's not a disease of any sort), the chance to get it is smaller than getting struck lightning. If you've somehow suffered from it before, just being under supervision (not even medical) for a couple of days is enough. It's a lot more dangerous to get infected with Covid.
Yeah, they all have songs that you would react very differently to, depending on what you heard first.
I know it's one of the joke songs of the album, but worst hangover ever is great.
