Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Offspring fans won't be disappointed by Conspiracy Of One. The sixth album from the old-school punks with "low self-esteem" is chock full of breakneck pop melodies and witty asides, possibly even more than before. Indeed, Conspiracy of One sounds even more punky than either Americana or Ixnay On The Hombre: perhaps mindful of their fans, everything has become stripped-back and frantic. Trouble is, by sacrificing the subtlety, the Offspring are starting to sound a little formulaic. "Original Prankster" is "Pretty Fly" given a few fresh licks of metal paint: the vocoder effect on Dexter Holland's voice makes him sound uncannily like the Foo Fighter's Dave Grohl: the near-irresistible "Damn It, Changed Again" and full-on emo-fest of "Denial Revisited" both sound like prime Green Day. Still, any record that boasts the turbulent "Million Miles Away" and "Come Out Swinging" can't be too bad. A solid, if unexciting, return. --Jerry Thackray

There are some really good songs on this album, but there are also some songs that dont match the quality an Offspring song should have.
The best songs have to be "Want you bad", "Million miles away", "One fine day" and "Conspiracy of one".
If you an Offspring fan, you should definately buy this album, but if your new to their music i would recommend buying either "Ixnay on the Hombre" or "Smash" which are much better albums.

No Americana
Ill keep this short and simple. Loved Americana. This is only ok at best. Songs are short and besides maybe two tracks, nothing of note included I dont think.
