"Here's an article I saw about the offspring at virginmega.com . I'm not a big fan of the offspring but some of you might be interested.

"The fate of Offspring seems to be in question since bassist Greg Kriesel reportedly said in an interview with the Bakersfield Californian, "If the next album is something we're not happy with and things have gotten tired and old, maybe that'll be it … I give it five more years." Furthermore, Kriesel admitted, "We've kinda come down to hit singles." Despite Offspring's success with such radio hits as "Come Out and Play," "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)" and "Why Don't You Get a Job?," the band's latest album, Conspiracy of One, hasn't continued racking up sales figures as massive as their previous hitmakers, and their progression into poppier hooks has compounded criticism from avid punkers everywhere."
