I told my friends/co-workers that "I Write Sins, Not Tragedies" by Panic At the Disco is one of the best white boy songs I've ever heard. Now they're sending me song suggestions and I'm doing live reactions here.
Certified banger, and yes there is some political messaging in there. The whole song is essentialy about a generation of lost kids trying to find meaning in life in a world that dont give a single shit about them, whilst looking nostalgicaly back to childhood when they didnt need to worry as much about all of that.
It's actually about real-life friends and what happened to them... despite the fast and hype rhythm the overall song is really dark. And to compare Green Day (despite me loving some of their songs tbh) to Offspring just kinda feels like an insult at the end of the day.
@@tnightwolf I don't know, I bought Dookie and Smash as my second and third CDs ever, and loved them both. To me, I always put them in the same general category of American punk rock.
Punk is one of those things where if you like it and "get it", has a scene that welcomes literally all people and has always been super political, angry, and fucking amazing.
I've always felt that Punk is one of those scenes that practices equality through apathy. Like, rather than having an agenda of active inclusivity everyone is accepted because nobody gives a single, solitary fuck about your race, creed, gender, orientation, or any of that shit. Show up, don't be a dick, and you're cool.
My favorite Offspring song was always Come Out And Play. This takes me back to the high school days where my CD case was full of Offspring, Green Day, Metallica, No Doubt, Smashing Pumpkins, and shit like that.
If you feel like you're ready for something a whole lot heavier, I'd recommend checking out my good buddies in Allegaeon. They're an insanely talented Death Metal band, and their guitar solos are out of this fuckin' world. th-cam.com/video/vE9NqfSMXTg/w-d-xo.html
"Self Esteem" and "You're Gonna Go Far Kid" are both bangers by The Offspring "Take Me Out" by Franz Ferdinand also worth a listen if you enjoy punk and alternative
I mean, I study in Germany and I do complain about the lack of spices here, especially in terms of spicy flavor, a lot. And it's not just me I've talked to cooks that cook non-german food and it's come up that they had to tone down the spices for the german palate. There was this one indian-german fusion restaurant. I was looking at the rice dishes. So at the top of the page there is a disclaimer stating that if you want the dishes prepared in their original version you had to specify it when ordering, as they made them less spicy for their German clientele. However the most extreme person I ever encountered was this guy from the north of the country who literally refused all spices, categorically, that includes basic salt. He said it ruined the natural flavor of the food, he was quite literally a no-spice man.
@@HollywoodRobTV hey you need to go back a bit further th-cam.com/video/0qanF-91aJo/w-d-xo.html&feature=share This young guy got blown up by postie a few years ago 😂
@@HollywoodRobTV I would go with Blink 182's What's My Age Again or Sum 41's In Too Deep to start with. They were pioneers of Pop Punk along with Green Day back in the late 90s, early 00's.
This song is a fuckin BOP even though the lyrics are pretty tragic. Pure nostalgia, and still on my playlists. The thing about rock music that’s different than rapping: singing along is a completely different experience. This song makes me hold my chest while I wail along with the chorus. Wait till you get a good enough playlist going to play in the car, you’re gonna look absolutely insane head-banging at a red light and drumming on the steering wheel like the rest of us.
The pop punk of the 90's/00's definitely has a special place in my heart. Greenday, Blink 182, Offspring had a real cultural moment for a while there. But if you love THPS, you might have to react to the quintessential track, Superman by Goldfinger.
Superman is quintessential Goldfinger, but I'd argue that Disorder is probably their best song. Certainly (for me) the best off that album (Hang-Ups), if not their overall best song.
The Offspring's first hits that got them on the map in 1994 were 1. Come Out and Play 2. Self Esteem 3. Gotta Get Away Their next album in 1997 is probably my favorite top to bottom, but the ones people would most likely suggest are 1. Gone Away (a more serious song) 2. All I Want (on the Crazy Taxi soundtrack) 3. I Choose (nice guitar riff and decent solo) A lot will also suggest a more recent song from 2008, "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid"
Given his love for Rage Against The Machine, I'd also suggest "Hammerhead." It's all Dexter's rage and social critique with the pop punk sound turned up to 11.
As a brotha who got into rock at a young age I've definitely been odd man out at more than a few shows (and had a few sketch moments along the way). A lot of rock bands have been worth it though. Watching you exploring the genre is bringing me back to the joy I experienced hearing these songs for the first time. Keep doing what you doing!
Went looking for the No Seasoning playlist and found so many others I was dying at how many there were 🤣🤣 also you gotta do Down With The Sickness boss!
Those are good, but you think better than Stricken? I'd introduce anyone to Disturbed with that. (I have tickets for later this year to see them live!)
Glad to hear you're gonna check out Disturbed! Both songs are absolute bangers, but I'm voting for *Down With The Sickness.* It opens with a fat drum beat, crunchy guitars, and one of the most famous vocal trills in all of metal. 🤘😈
Hi. The, offspring,,, blink 182,,..is what we call,, high school-Punk,, here in Germany.. ((cause, it, s Not so hard.) try some stuff from here.. :"Slime-komm schon klar" (about Street live).. /. or. "die toten Hosen-mehr davon, live, Hals und Beinbruch" (about adiction,, See what the singer did😧).. Enjoy
The Offspring are a pretty dissonant band. A lot of high energy pop-punk music with generally cutting sarcasm or anger in the lyrics. Come Out and Play is song of theirs that was played everywhere for the longest time by people who never got the lyrics.
Once my family went away for a long weekend leaving me at home by myself, and I put the Smash album on repeat and left it on for four straight days. Just me in my boxers playing Doom and eating pizza, good music keeping me company. It was a great weekend.
Love your enthusiasm and natural reactions. I’ve got treatment-resistant major depressive disorder and listening to you today feels like hanging with a friend, and that’s a real blessing for me, so thank you. On to the music: It sounds like what you liked best about this song was it’s genre. The Offspring is pop punk (specifically West Coast). Punk is all about a DIY ethos- the idea that anyone can and should do it. It’s a lot like folk in that regard. Since it’s all about DIY and being for everyone, in general punk doesn’t feature solos. If you’re wanting to check out more catchy punk, I highly recommend The Ramones. Great songs to start with would be “Blitzkrieg Bop,” “Pinhead,” and “Rockaway Beach.” In regards to some of the other stuff you’ve heard recently: The music media created the term “grunge” and applied it to bands like Nirvana, Soundgarden (Chris Cornell’s band), Pearl Jam, and Alice In Chains (who I recommend you try). But those bands didn’t have a whole lot in common other than place and time (Seattle in the late 80s to mid 90s) and though they knew each other and played the same venues, wouldn’t have necessarily seen themselves as in the same genre. Nirvana was influenced primarily by punk (therefore earthier singing, rarer solos). Soundgarten was more of a metal band (metal favors instrumental virtuosity -solos- and a high “wail” in the vocalist). Pearl Jam was influenced by 70s rock-folk acts like Neil Young and Bob Dylan.
Always love how authentic your reactions are (even when you don't like the songs - Schism had me rolling). I know you don't usually watch videos, but I'd really recommend Zombie by the Cranberries. The vid has 1.3 billion with a "b" views for a reason - in part because it uses documentary/real footage for a lot of the video (all the black and white scenes). The singer's voice is super unique, and even though I think everyone and their mother heard this song back in the 90s & early 2000s, I still think a lot of people didn't know the context or the meaning. If you haven't already seen it, might be worth a watch/listen :) Thanks for all the great reacts!
Teen when this came out. It was sad then, but living life and seeing what has happened to some of my classmates and friends, it hits differently at 41.
It's one of those songs where it sounds so upbeat and hype, especially with the "WHOA OH!" in the background, but the lyrics are so damn sad about growing up losing all their childhood friends that used to be in that neighborhood....half of them are pot heads with shattered dreams, some of them killed themselves from not being what they dreamed of, some of them have broken families, it's sadly relatable in the worst ways, but still a banger.
Funny you should mention THPS. The Offspring have a ICONIC song called “All I Want”, off their “Ixnay on the Hombre” album. If you played a certain driving arcade game called Crazy Taxi, then you know what I am talking about.
The cool thing about this series is that I love so many of these songs and it’s so cool watching someone listen to these songs for the first time! Also you should listen to blink-182’s All the small things!
What is funny here is you say at the end that you aren’t sure about the base, but in this song the base is pretty prominent, the bom, bum bum, right after the beginning, when the drums kick in, I feel like this whole song is led by the base guitar. It’s super base heavy, and you are super singing along to it. I am loving seeing you bopping along to this. This song is such a super jam, and I use it a lot as a “pick me up”
If you want more of a peek into more metal I'd say the gateway drug would be Metallica's Master Of Puppets. The lyrics are one of the most hard hitting ones to most people. It was even chosen to be preserved in the national recording registry in 2015 because it was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the Library Of Congress.
Not going to lie, I related to this song when it came out. But, I also grew up in a very abusive home. So hearing someone loudly scream out things I only wish I could have had the strength to say really resonated. It was a lot safer too scream this in the car than to risk making it worse
Since you've enjoyed both Rage and Offspring, you might enjoy Protest the Hero. They started as punk, and became heavier over time. Very much a social message like Rage, combined with the smoother rhythms and "catchiness." Fear and Loathing in Laramie - Protest the Hero
I got this CD (Americana) in 6th grade when it came out in 2000, and it was my favorite album and this my favorite track, for most of my teens. My music tastes branched out in college, but looking back more than 20 years now it's incredibly nostalgic and fun.
This entire sub-genre is Punk. It's raw, its dirty, its frustration, its passion. Punk has evolved a lot from its early days with bands like The Ramones, Dead Kennedys, Agent Orange, Bad Religion, but the spirit of the genre is still there. Everything is fucked up and we're pissed about it, so we're gonna tell you why we're so pissed. I highly recommend digging deeper into more Punk bands if this is the sound you were looking for. My recommendations are New Dark Ages by Bad Religion and Holiday in Cambodia by Dead Kennedys. I'm so glad we have finally arrived at Punk and I am hype as FUCK to see you listen to more of it.
Good choice buddy Love the reaction keep it up Suggestions like this: Paramore: misery business, ignorance, decode New Found Glory: hit or miss, my friends over you, all downhill from here Bowling for soup: bitch song, girl all the bad guys want
Fun fact: the singer in this band, Dexter Holland, has a PhD in molecular biology. His thesis was titled "Discovery of mature microRNA sequences within the protein-coding regions of global HIV-1 genomes: predictions of novel mechanisms for viral infection and pathogenicity."
Your commentary just keeps me laughing bro. Still suggesting some Pantera...if you are looking for White aggro. Check out "Walk" or "Five minutes alone" or "Drag the water". Keep up the great content, your channel is 🔥
I think songs that fade into one another, and both being connected, would be a nice thing to try. Selfishly, I'm going to recommend "Prayer of the Refugee" into "Drones" by Rise Against, but a very popular version of what I'm talking about is "Holiday" into "Boulevard of Broken Breams" by Green Day. A huge thing for rock music is also live performances. "A Place for My Head" by Linkin Park is a fan favorite, but the version of it from the DVD "Live in Texas" fucks.
Can't believe I haven't seen a comment about Blink-182 yet! Super "white" band, and the best to ever do punk rock (though it certainly existed long before them). Go check them out some time! My personal favorite song of theirs is "Dammit", but go with whatever you want :)
Just started following you recently. If you liked these guys, I would suggest Rise Against as your next band. Savior and Prayer of the Refugee are both good. And if no one has suggested them yet, you can never go wrong with the Foo Fighters. The Foo Fighters aren’t similar but just another group I think you’ll like.
I am a Boomer N CA coastal girl, and this band hit hard on the lyrics and watching all hell break loose for my kids' friends as they became teens... But they sound fire/fun too. Lots of shouting singing in the car driving. I actually took mine to a concert of them at SJSU in 99... that is how much this shit hit home and was worth the effort to do that.
The lyrics to this song are actually heartbreaking, but easily one of the best pop punk songs that ever went mainstream!
Yup I grew up on this shit cuz it hit home for me.
I’ll put rise against up against any pop punk period
@@davidzaunii6911 rise against are my favorite also, but the kids aren't alright is a banger and nobody can deny that.
You definitely missed how deep these lyrics are. This song is absolutely describing a terrible situation.
I got to see them live and he played this on a grand piano. It had us all singing along with tears. It was amazing
Certified banger, and yes there is some political messaging in there. The whole song is essentialy about a generation of lost kids trying to find meaning in life in a world that dont give a single shit about them, whilst looking nostalgicaly back to childhood when they didnt need to worry as much about all of that.

The Offspring sucked... like Puddle Of Mud sucked. Lots of great music came from the 90's but this is NOT it. This is garbage rock.
@@tnightwolf Green Day gets a lot of undeserved flak, they're not like fuckin Mozart but they're still underrated if you ask me.
@tnightwolf tbf he said that only like 15 seconds into the beginning. Lol
Punk is one of those things where if you like it and "get it", has a scene that welcomes literally all people and has always been super political, angry, and fucking amazing.
"oi" for life
Just came to say welcome to the punk family. Everyone is welcome except racists and bullies. No nazi white supremacists and bully the bullies.

Did you steal my cd collection?
"List of random non-pop bands that existed" "and shit like that". Yeah okay.
@@Rayvn7 I am confused by your comment. Do you think the offspring, green day, Metallica, no doubt, and smashing pumpkins are obscure?
When i was like 8 years old id always sneak this CD into the radio and play come out and play. favorite song growing up
"Livin' Life On The White Side" 🤣
Don't ever change, bruh.
If you feel like you're ready for something a whole lot heavier, I'd recommend checking out my good buddies in Allegaeon. They're an insanely talented Death Metal band, and their guitar solos are out of this fuckin' world.
th-cam.com/video/vE9NqfSMXTg/w-d-xo.html
"Self Esteem" and "You're Gonna Go Far Kid" are both bangers by The Offspring
"Take Me Out" by Franz Ferdinand also worth a listen if you enjoy punk and alternative
Gotta start with their first hit, Come Out and Play
Take Me Out gets me going crazy every time I hear it, I second this
Franz Ferdinand is a great example of POP.
"This Fire" is a popular Franz Ferdinand song thanks to Edgerunners, may want to check that out too!
Smash has to be my favorite Offspring song

Chances thrown
Nothing's free
Longing for, used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives
Shattered dreams!
Its a vibe. Pure nostalgia.
Hell yeah Rob, this song is definitely on my High School soundtrack. Some good nostalgia here. Timeless!
You had good taste since High School then!
(Ignore my last response - I had responded to the wrong person lol)
The pop punk of the 90's/00's definitely has a special place in my heart. Greenday, Blink 182, Offspring had a real cultural moment for a while there. But if you love THPS, you might have to react to the quintessential track, Superman by Goldfinger.
Spokesman as well
Go ahead and remove Green Day from there. Thanks.
Superman is quintessential Goldfinger, but I'd argue that Disorder is probably their best song. Certainly (for me) the best off that album (Hang-Ups), if not their overall best song.
This whole album is worth a listen. Still one of my favorites.
Don't forget this song is a hidden track
The wiseguys remix of this song is too good
Definitely fits the bill as a teen movie banger; it's on the soundtrack of Robert Rodriguez's 1998 high school horror "The Faculty".
That one is an amazing movie
It always reminds me of the Buffy opening song, like they really sound similar to me.
My older sister and I always watched that movie growing up. Even now, I still watch it regularly
This song reminds me of friends I’ve mourned and buried or who didn’t make it because just trying to live their lives proved to be too much.
Another great white boy song from Offspring, Self Esteem. I think you'll love the lyrics.
Being tweeted by Tom is awesome! Proof that your reactions are enjoyed bc they are so genuine
Jimi Hendrix is a must I you haven't yet. Bold As Love is a great one.
Another banger from Big Hollywood!!!!! Fire vid as always.
Thanks, Street!
The Offspring have a bunch of great songs it's well worth checking out more "Gone away" and "Bad Habit" are bangers.
Definitely bad habit
Both are AMAZING!
This genre is basically commercial punk music, a big late 90's early 00's genre, you gotta check American Idiot by Green Day if you want more
The Offspring's first hits that got them on the map in 1994 were
1. Come Out and Play
2. Self Esteem
3. Gotta Get Away
Their next album in 1997 is probably my favorite top to bottom, but the ones people would most likely suggest are

2. All I Want (on the Crazy Taxi soundtrack)
3. I Choose (nice guitar riff and decent solo)

Crazy taxi arcade game was fun as hell
Haha I was coming here to mention Disturbed…❤️🔥 Glad it’s on the menu…🔥Down With the Sickness of course!!!
Just saw these guys live yesterday and it hit so hard now as a 32 year old
The "No Seasonings" playlist OMG LOL HAHAHAHA. You are such a gem man

The Offspring are one of my favorite bands. I used to skate for hours and they were always one of the bands that i had a cd with me to listen to.
i scrolled through a good chunk of the comments and I'm shocked that no one has suggested 'Pretty Fly For A White Guy' by The Offspring yet 😅
I asked a local cover band if they could do an Offspring song, the singer said no way he could do justice to any Offspring song!
The Offspring are a pretty dissonant band. A lot of high energy pop-punk music with generally cutting sarcasm or anger in the lyrics. Come Out and Play is song of theirs that was played everywhere for the longest time by people who never got the lyrics.
Once my family went away for a long weekend leaving me at home by myself, and I put the Smash album on repeat and left it on for four straight days. Just me in my boxers playing Doom and eating pizza, good music keeping me company. It was a great weekend.

Disturbed's most famous song is Down with the Sickness so probably start with that
I've been checking everyday for 2 weeks to see a new upload 🤣 glad your back!
The Offspring's "one fine day" is one of my favorites to get me motivated
American Idiot by Green Day is what you were singing that you said this reminds you of.
Dude. "No Seasonings" playlist? Subbed. I fucking lolled
Teen when this came out. It was sad then, but living life and seeing what has happened to some of my classmates and friends, it hits differently at 41.

Funny you should mention THPS. The Offspring have a ICONIC song called “All I Want”, off their “Ixnay on the Hombre” album. If you played a certain driving arcade game called Crazy Taxi, then you know what I am talking about.
this song is from when they became a little poppier but their first albums are alot more punky, would love to see you listen to L.A.P.D.
Pop punk is the definitive genre of growing up in the late 90s and 2000s
The cool thing about this series is that I love so many of these songs and it’s so cool watching someone listen to these songs for the first time! Also you should listen to blink-182’s All the small things!
That middle part of the song reminds me of the OP for "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".
"That shit" that you think is "white" is 90's/00's punk rock. Glad you like it!
You might enjoy "Pretty Fly for a White Guy" from the Offspring. Also, if you like this sound, you might like Sublime and No Doubt!
Gonna listen to this album while I'm working today thanks to you ... and in no way is that a bad thing.
Might just be me, but I think any first time The Offspring listenings should be followed up by one of the hype Sum 41 songs. My vote is for Fat Lip.
Yeah, specifically watch the *music video* for "Fat Lip." That's a great snapshot of early 2000s white teenage counterculture.
You crack me up dude! Straight to the no seasoning Playlist! 😂😂😂
tony hawk pro skater game was so addictive
You seem super fun to chill with 😂just can crack jokes without worrying about being cancelled. Great energy you put out.
A new song that is a MUST react is Ren - Hi Ren.
Check out Let The Bad Times Roll by The Offspring . It came out during the pandemic, also is about the pandemic. I recon it's a banger. 💥👾
I love you compared this to American Idiot. Green Day "Dookie" and Offspring self titled we 2 of my first 4 cd's!!
What is funny here is you say at the end that you aren’t sure about the base, but in this song the base is pretty prominent, the bom, bum bum, right after the beginning, when the drums kick in, I feel like this whole song is led by the base guitar. It’s super base heavy, and you are super singing along to it.
I am loving seeing you bopping along to this. This song is such a super jam, and I use it a lot as a “pick me up”
Gone away by these guys is my favorite.
Hurt by Johnny Cash, originally written by Trent Rexnor of NIN but Johnny owns it. You will end in tears.
I love that the playlist is "No seasoning."
You could also call it the "Mayo is spicy!" playlist.
If you want more of a peek into more metal I'd say the gateway drug would be Metallica's Master Of Puppets. The lyrics are one of the most hard hitting ones to most people. It was even chosen to be preserved in the national recording registry in 2015 because it was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the Library Of Congress.
This song will never not make me deeply sad, but its still a banger
Cult of Personality by Living Colour... But, you've gotta watch the music video! 🔥🔥🔥
Offspring had a song in one of the Crazy Taxi games. It was on all the time
This is why I love this song. Dude's headbanging and bopping along while some of the bleakest lyrics are playing lol.
Back in the day I had a mix CD labeled 'angry white boy rock' and it had a few Offspring songs on it
This is my favorite album they have
I can’t stop watching your videos. 😅
Not going to lie, I related to this song when it came out. But, I also grew up in a very abusive home. So hearing someone loudly scream out things I only wish I could have had the strength to say really resonated. It was a lot safer too scream this in the car than to risk making it worse
He was too happy during devastating lyrics lol
Offspring - self esteem; one of their best.
The truth is.. a good sing along is hard to beat as far as being memorable. Love your channel dude.
Since you've enjoyed both Rage and Offspring, you might enjoy Protest the Hero. They started as punk, and became heavier over time. Very much a social message like Rage, combined with the smoother rhythms and "catchiness."
Fear and Loathing in Laramie - Protest the Hero
Love this one so much!!!
The Offspring Gone Away is a great song
more of this please!
when you said "yaa haaah now this is white!" is when i hit the like button lmao. new subscriber my man
I got this CD (Americana) in 6th grade when it came out in 2000, and it was my favorite album and this my favorite track, for most of my teens. My music tastes branched out in college, but looking back more than 20 years now it's incredibly nostalgic and fun.
Subscribed your my new favorite reaction channel for sure
Punk is known for its amazing drummers. More than most other rock styles, the drummer can totally make or break a punk band
This entire sub-genre is Punk. It's raw, its dirty, its frustration, its passion. Punk has evolved a lot from its early days with bands like The Ramones, Dead Kennedys, Agent Orange, Bad Religion, but the spirit of the genre is still there. Everything is fucked up and we're pissed about it, so we're gonna tell you why we're so pissed. I highly recommend digging deeper into more Punk bands if this is the sound you were looking for. My recommendations are New Dark Ages by Bad Religion and Holiday in Cambodia by Dead Kennedys. I'm so glad we have finally arrived at Punk and I am hype as FUCK to see you listen to more of it.
I love watching people find new music. 10/10 keep at it bro I vote stupify
Good choice buddy
Love the reaction keep it up
Suggestions like this:
Paramore: misery business, ignorance, decode
New Found Glory: hit or miss, my friends over you, all downhill from here
Bowling for soup: bitch song, girl all the bad guys want
Fun fact: the singer in this band, Dexter Holland, has a PhD in molecular biology. His thesis was titled "Discovery of mature microRNA sequences within the protein-coding regions of global HIV-1 genomes: predictions of novel mechanisms for viral infection and pathogenicity."
Rob you need to listen to Ladt Resort by Papa Roach, it would fit perfect in your No Seasoning playlist ❤😂
Dude you're cracking me up...every video "Ahhhhhh this is white! I don't mean that bad don't cancel me." I'm laughing so hard
Your commentary just keeps me laughing bro. Still suggesting some Pantera...if you are looking for White aggro. Check out "Walk" or "Five minutes alone" or "Drag the water". Keep up the great content, your channel is 🔥
Bro, your reactions are fire ! Honest and fun to watch. Makes me laugh alongside with you. Keep up the exploration of ' white music's lol
Holy shit. This is the first album I ever bought!
I think songs that fade into one another, and both being connected, would be a nice thing to try. Selfishly, I'm going to recommend "Prayer of the Refugee" into "Drones" by Rise Against, but a very popular version of what I'm talking about is "Holiday" into "Boulevard of Broken Breams" by Green Day.
A huge thing for rock music is also live performances. "A Place for My Head" by Linkin Park is a fan favorite, but the version of it from the DVD "Live in Texas" fucks.
Can't believe I haven't seen a comment about Blink-182 yet! Super "white" band, and the best to ever do punk rock (though it certainly existed long before them). Go check them out some time! My personal favorite song of theirs is "Dammit", but go with whatever you want :)
Hi.. Greedings from Germany.. Try some strange stuff..
:"Broilers-meine Sache (my Business). /
:" toten Hosen - Alle sagen das"(all say that,, about fake news).. /
:"Jennifer Rostock - Kaleidoskop" (about unseen poeple).. Enjoy.. German Punk
glad i found your channel. This one is a favorite of mine. huge offspring fan here.. But Staring at the sun on this record.. Beautiful.
you gotta listen to everlong one of the greatest songs
Just started following you recently. If you liked these guys, I would suggest Rise Against as your next band. Savior and Prayer of the Refugee are both good. And if no one has suggested them yet, you can never go wrong with the Foo Fighters. The Foo Fighters aren’t similar but just another group I think you’ll like.
I am a Boomer N CA coastal girl, and this band hit hard on the lyrics and watching all hell break loose for my kids' friends as they became teens...
But they sound fire/fun too.
Lots of shouting singing in the car driving.
I actually took mine to a concert of them at SJSU in 99... that is how much this shit hit home and was worth the effort to do that.
Bad Habit is a must hear by Offspring.
