dirty magic? remaking ignition songs, are we?

lostcausegiveup (June 19, 2012)

hahaha, nicely put, Byrne. i am stoked to get home and hear this. i have a feeling this album will be bumpin' in my trunk all summer

DesertBurst92 (June 19, 2012)

well this will be something to avoid completely when it comes out

mattramone (June 19, 2012)

I've heard quite a bit of BUZZ about this here MEDIA.

MN_DrNick (June 19, 2012)

Oof dah. This is boring first half and then what the fuck second half.

alex101 (June 19, 2012)

I'm listening to this album right now and so far, I don't think it's sucks. I guess i'll call this "the best Offspring album in about 15 years" lol

coons (June 19, 2012)

Alex 101 speaks!

bastard_squad (June 19, 2012)

Classic Renaldo.

mattramone (June 19, 2012)

Beat me to it.

WhenYouWerePunk (June 19, 2012)

Let's all not talk about how "Turning into You" is "Ready to Fall" by Rise Against. I know that's coming...

nickvicious (June 19, 2012)

Wow. For a minute I thought Rolling Stone fucked up and accidentally put up a Rise Against song. And yes, the chorus is so "Ready the Fall". But to be fair, Simpsons did it first.

sajamie81 (June 19, 2012)

How about saying Days go By sounds EXACTLY like the foo fighters, except nowhere near as good.

thismikeisapipebomb (June 19, 2012)

My exact thoughts when i first heard it. And another one rips off prayer of the refuge.

sajamie81 (June 19, 2012)

Make up their minds do they want to be Rise Against or Foo Fighters? Can't be both.

BrodyDanger (June 19, 2012)

Holy shit... I just happened to be listening to that track when I read this comment.

cpp_ (June 19, 2012)

Does anyone else think that the bassist in this band is the most useless member? He seriously does nothing on stage but stands there, I think he could be replaced by a machine and no one would notice.

loki13 (June 19, 2012)

Flight of the Concords try that...with sexy results.

Piata (June 19, 2012)

I would listen to this, but then I would have to stop listening to Russian Circles - Empros and I'm pretty sure dropping Russian Circles for modern day Offspring is punishable by death in most parts of the world (or at least should be).

porksoda (June 19, 2012)

Someone listen to this and tell me that it's worth my time if I'm a casual Offspring fan.

thismikeisapipebomb (June 19, 2012)

No.

RottenBones (June 19, 2012)

yeah, just skip the first five songs

Nap (June 19, 2012)

It used to be my favorite band. It has a few good songs. Way worse than Rise and Fall.

jacknife737 (June 19, 2012)

You'll like at least four songs.

MrPistachio (June 19, 2012)

I'm half way through, I'm no an Offspring fan boy but I absolutely love their early work...

This album is better than Rise and Fall by an absolute mile.

SeriouslyAwesomeDude (June 19, 2012)

Haters gonna hate... I happen to think this sounds pretty sweet, minus some of the garbage in the middle. But that's par for the course at this point for Offspring albums

pwnther (June 19, 2012)

Damn, "Turing into you" sounds so much like Rise Against's "Ready to Fall", its kind of pissing me off. But the first song on this album is pretty cool.

whoostin (June 19, 2012)

First song sounds like Savior by Rise Against

drews (June 19, 2012)

Holy crap you're right

Joemomma420666 (June 20, 2012)

Dirty magic is have you ever by the offspring

Joemomma420666 (June 20, 2012)

Dirty magic is have you ever by the offspring

Devidence (June 20, 2012)

What? Dirty Magic actually doesn't sound bad. Its so close to the Ignition version I'm not sure why they bothered though.

BrodyDanger (June 19, 2012)

I wouldn't play "OC Guns" for my worst enemy.

Thumbs (June 19, 2012)

But what about "California Cruisin"? "OC Guns" is the 2nd or 3rd worst on the album.

Thumbs (June 19, 2012)

6 or 7 pretty good songs, the others are total crap.
Thumbs split.

ProdigalSon75 (June 19, 2012)

Dividing by Zero and Slim Pickens are the best songs on it

TheMike (June 19, 2012)

Chorus of Hurting as One sounds like a rewrite of Something to Believe in.

janzik (June 20, 2012)

Some of this is growing on me.

Out of the terrible shit OC Guns is light years better than CC is. Smashmouth wouldn't even release horseshit like CC. Most of the rest sounds like Rise Against Lite. Days Go By sounds like Foo Fighters with the guitar riff sounding like that one Cult song.

As of right now I still like RAFRAG better...

janzik (June 20, 2012)

OC Guns sounds like a NOFX throw away track that El Hefe would sing...

BrodyDanger (June 20, 2012)

I wish they would at least rip off good Rise Against songs.
