May 22: The Offspring - Americana
I actually have a promo copy of this CD, without album artwork, because I reviewed it for the University of Manchester student paper in England. So that's pretty cool. I thought about just reprinting my review here, but decided that would be pretty pretentious. So...
This is a good album, but a little heavy on the novelty songs. Still, it was a monster hit for the band, even though it came out only 18 months after Ixnay. And it's got "The Kids Aren't Alright," which I think is the Offspring's best song. And c'mon... you STILL think the video for "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)" is hilarious.
