Splinter

The Offspring

The band tested new ideas at the end of the pop-punk explosion. The resulting tracks are short, punchy, and show a band unwilling to stay within narrow stylistic boundaries.

Production remains polished but restless. By incorporating diverse elements into their aggressive sound, the group navigated the shift into the mid-2000s with a sense of studio playfulness.
