That's what some people say about Slayer, Brad Paisley, and the Glen Miller Orchestra. It all depends on who yer askin'. As for me… if I were at a party & the Offspring came on… that would be the time that I would go see what's happening outside… or in the basement… or in the garage… or anywhere else! I've said it before & I'll say it again… I can find something I like about most music, or I can laugh at it, or tune it out… but the Offspring won't allow me to. They're the only band I've ever encountered that has such a consuming and abrasive affect on me. I'm not demanding that anyone else hate them… all I ask is that you allow me to!
I can see why you wouldn't dig it. The vocals aren't exactly conventionally pleasant sounding, and the instrumentals are really nothing to write home about both aesthetically and musically. I mean I dig it myself sometimes, but it's just that sort of thing that you either like or you don't. I mean, I genuinely dislike AC/DC, lots of people don't care one bit that I don't dig them though, at least based on how much I hear them on the radio. So it's cool that we can respect differences, just of we're ever jamming maybe we'll stick maybe to Cream or something like that.
