  • The Offspring (sometimes referred to simply as Offspring) are a popular and influential American punk rock band from Garden Grove, California, formed in 1984 in Huntington Beach, California. Since its foundation, the band's line-up has included Dexter Holland, Noodles and Greg K. . Their current drummer is Pete Parada, formerly of Face to Face and Saves the Day, who has been with the band since 2007. To date, The Offspring have released eight studio albums, one compilation, four EPs and three DVDs, selling over 40 million albums worldwide, making them one of the best-selling punk acts of all time. The band is credited, along with fellow California punk bands Green Day and Rancid, with reviving popular interest in punk rock in the United States during the mid-1990s. Since the release of their 1994 album Smash, the best-selling independent label album of all time, The Offspring have achieved commercial success over five albums, with singles such as "Come Out and Play", and "Self Esteem". The band's next three albums, Ixnay on the Hombre, Americana and Conspiracy of One, were also successful, reaching platinum certification and gold status respectively. Longtime drummer Ron Welty left The Offspring in early 2003, and was replaced by Atom Willard. Later that year, the band released their next album, Splinter, to moderate sales and fairly warm reviews. In 2005, The Offspring released a greatest hits album and toured in support of the compilation. Their most recent studio album, Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace, was released on June 16, 2008 in Europe and a day later in the United States. (en)
