Ixnay On The Hombre

After the success of previous album, 1994's Smash, The Offspring had to come back strong with the next album and on Ixnay on the Hombre in 1997 they did just that by keeping with a similar formula but at the same time taking a slightly darker route. The majority of songs here are fast paced punk rock numbers and there isn't a Self Esteem or even a Come Out and Play but the likes of Mota, Me & My Old Lady, Gone Away and All I Want prove The Offspring know a tune when they write one and also aren't afraid to chuck in a bit of melody here and there.Their latest material may get a lukewarm response but the bands 90's material is what has kept their legacy alive today.

Fast tempo album that you can't help but sing & tap along to. Song get stuck in your head (in a good way), and the comedic element to it just makes it an all-round enjoyable listen. Mota is a personal favourite.Cover art is also very awesome

Simply Offpring at their best before they became a commercial sellout.This and Smash were their best albums in my opinion.

Love it

Spot on!

Perfect. Just perfect. Every other records should follow this one. Every single thing.
