Offspring - Hammerhead
Offspring is one of the bands I keep coming back to, like Coldplay and Kent. Sure, their sound is a very stereotypical rock sound, but that's some of the strength in it. Their sound is just a rocking beat, not some demanding array of new experimental sounds. Music with experimenting is cool too of course, but a bit of both is even better. Their mix of politically active music with songs that just take the piss (Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)) is genious.
Some people like to listen to mellow music if they feel sad or some such, I need the opposite, I need musix which inflates my ears and floats me to the top (now how's that for a metaphor?)

3 attempts to coup this post so far.:
I agree. When I'm feeling down, I need joyous happy shit to bring me back up. I can't listen to depressing stuff when I'm down - I listen to that shit when I'm in a good mood. It doesn't drag me down, it just makes me feel different, but not sad.
I've always liked The Offspring, right from the Nitro days, so I've been a long term fan.
What I'm trying to say is, are you gonna come back and pick up that Russian whore anytime soon? She's starting to stink up the place, y'know?
Also, I don't like it when you feel down. You're one of my best mates, so you feeling down is shit. So stop, mmmkay? Right now.
I fuckin mean it.
No? Ok, fuck you then.
Bitch.
Want a pint of Rattler? I'm buying.
Well I'm not sad, I stopped. Because I listened to Offspring, see?
And yes, I would like some Cornish Cyder.
Pee on your face Foss, pee on your face.
