Reviews

    Chalkers
    This album is the perfect blend of pop, punk and alternative rock. Hardcore fan's may dismiss it as their 'sellout' album and music critics as 'childish' but for me this album has been unfairly sidelined. The songs are suberbly written, the blunt lyrics suit the style and the concept very well indeed and there's an underlying humour to it all that lightens the mood to some pretty heavy subject matter. There are the catchy pop hit's such as 'Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)' and 'The Kid's Aren't Alright' that most people may recognise, however the band really expanded their sound with this album. Honestly, I genuinely believe this album ranks amongst the greatest of the 1990s and it holds up very well indeed with repeated listens.

      Good album of OFFSPRING

      after SMASH(1994) many people thought that they were one hit wonders. But they are not !
      This album is good. The singles were great. Highlight of this album is THE KIDS ARENT ALRIGHT
