Pros: ok
Cons: doesn't reach as the standeds as well as there past albums
when i first saw the clip of pretty fly for a white guy i could see it was obvious
they were going down hill, well this album was alright but some were are bit of disappointment and there following albums don't get any better
Pros: the sound, the songs, and the fun
Cons: few fillers
i'd give it 3.5 stars. it's a pretty good album. a little bit short but it came just a year after ixnay on the hombre. it's definitely more pop and they developped their gimmick side more and there's a few novelty songs. but it feels like a natural change and not an attempt to sell-out.
Pros: better than ixnay
Cons: not enough fast punk songs
This album is a good album, even if people thinks offspring can't be punks anymore, to these people i answer "Staring At The Sun", "No Brakes" ,"Have You ever", "Americana", "Feelings" and "Walla Walla". Sure the other songs are more pop punk or even pop rock with "Why don't You Get a Job" but I'm pretty sure you didn't know Offspring before this album (if you're like me) and After having this album you should buy Smash if u want more punk songs like the one I wrote.
I only like 1 song - The Kid's Aren't Alright. All the other songs are too slow paced, light, soft, poppy and basically a load of
Other than Pretty fly, and WDYGAJ, this is a damn good album. Pay The Man is a personal favorite. i think that people were quick to jump on trashing this album because of those two songs and the fact that offspring started appearing on MTV because of those cheesy songs. allthough this is a really good album, for those who are new to offspring, i'd suggest you go out and buy Smash or Ixnay on the Hombre
pretty good cd. best offspring cd.....no. i suggest ixnay on the hombre, or smash if you want to hear the real offspring
THIS ALBUM ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!1
im not to impressed with this. there are 2 or 3 good songs. pretty fly for a white guy and why dont you get a job were overplayed on the radio and on mtv. this kind of brings the album down. i like the offspring but if your going to buy and offspring album buy conspiracy of one.
this cd is boss, buy it now!!!!
The spagage_heads are bitchin'
Americana is one of the best Offspring CD's yet! I can't believe the punk/hardcore that fills this CD! It may not be as good as Smash, Ixay, or Ignition, but it rules. Actually, it ties with Ignition. Buy it, if you know what's good for you!
HEY!!, does this make sense: OHHHthis cd is popular so that means it sucks .All i can say to these people is to value the "MUSIC" . I can say this is the best album they did ,and because it just sounds GRREAT ,and i also can say that conspiracy of one is good , BUT not great , and conspiracy of one is popular ,
If you wanna right a review value the music, and don't talk about that sellout
I already wrote a review and it's 5 stars
WHAT THE
Oh dear. The Offspring have messed this one up. SOME of the songs are PRITTY FLY but more than half of this album should be locked up where nobody can find it. I hear you screaming BUT ITS THE BEST, well not in my books it ain't. If some one played you NO BRAKES, WALLA WALLA and AMERICANA you would want to buy this album, but take my advise DON'T. GO GET IXNAY INSTEAD.
this prick clearly has no sense of taste so he kiss his own ass. Americana is their best ever and he should stop listenin to
I just love how Dexter Holland, Noodles, Greg K., and Ron Welty make such good punk music. The Offspring technically run down every aspect of American life, and make it sound funny(well, beside the "Kids aren't all right", which is one of the best Offspring songs.) My second favorite Offspring album.
the offspring are, were, and always will be the best punk rock band in the world. they never did any sell out and americana is a great album!!!
This cd was a complete waste of time... I'll never buy another Offspring CD again!!
They show no creativity or individuality, they went for the teeny boppers and it shows with this uninspired piece of
IXNAY ruled!! what happened??
Sorry, but that's all they'll ever amount to. You see, this CD desperately wants to be punk rock. But it isn't. Because punk is hard, anarchic music that does peoples' heads in. This, on the other hand, is soft-rock wannabe crap that brainwashed twelve year-old MTV-loving girls enjoy listening to.
If you want some proper punk music then I suggest you buy a Pitchshifter album. Not only are they as hard as
Alternatively, if you want good hard music, then these are your bands: Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Tool, Ministry and of course, the mighty Prodigy.
Have fun, you pre-pubescent suckers!
Very good album! ok, so maybe it's as punkish as their earlier albums.
Americana has fast drumming, cool guitar solos, and 'wo hoas' in they're lyrics. What more could you want from a punk band?
A true rock out album!
you have no idea what real music is and if you did you wouldn't diss this album because if you listen to Pretty Fly for a White Guy htta sounds very punk to me and if you've heard Dude Ranch by Blink 182at the end of the Cd there is a song similar to that and how could you diss the Kids Aren't All Right those are some serious instrumentals
Alright album, like i said before the offspring are the best but some how this album is not as good as the others, but it does have some of the best work of vocals,lyrics and music but some how it dosnt sound as good!
I think that they did abandon their punk roots. I mean listen to Ignition or Self Titled then listen to Americana, and you can hear a difference. Oh well you can't change anything.
Offspring likes dick in their ass
This is decent
It may not be like the old raw-punk style like the first two albums, but this is good stuff!
