    The only CD I owned which needed a few tries before it played on a shitty Discman connected to an old Stereo.

    Pay the Man is one of their best songs. Solid album; probably rank it as third favorite behind smash & ixnay

    Great album, disturbing imagery. I know bugs are necessary within the food chain, but by god are they gross as shit

      I think that Ixnay was their last “Raw” album, Americana was great but it was their first mainsteam album. They are both 10/10 but for different reasons.

    Came out in my freshman year of high school. Friend was signed up to one of those services that mailed you CDs monthly at a discounted price. We spent that whole summer listening to this album. I’m not even an Offspring fan, just have fond memories of this album.

    I had Ignition and Smash but for some reason stopped listening to them, so I’ve never heard this (or Ixnay which people seem to also like). Thanks for reminding me about Offspring, will give it a listen soon!

    Good album, maybe even the first I ever bought for myself. The Kid’s Aren’t Alright is dark.
