[edit] Trivia

  • The cover, shown on the left, for The Offspring is the original version. The re-release of the album had a different cover, which is shown on the right, due to the increasing popularity of The Offspring as well as the number of expensive, poor quality bootlegs that were being sold to fans. Another reason why it had a different cover would be that the original version is too violent, because it shows a picture of an "alien skeleton", with a Stratocaster, going out of a person's stomach.
  • Almost all albums have special intros, outros or hidden tracks:
  • The first track for Ignition, Session, starts with Ron screaming, "Aah! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! FUCK!"
  • Smash starts with the spoken intro Time to Relax. The last track is followed by the short spoken outro, the demo for Change The World and ends with the secret track Come Out And Play (Reprise).
  • Ixnay on the Hombre starts with Disclaimer by Jello Biafra and ends with Kiss my ass offer by Calvert DeForest. In the middle of the album there is a comic Intermission.
  • Americana starts with unnatural-sounding spoken Welcome and ends with the 'secret' track Pretty Fly (for a White Guy) - (Reprise).
  • Conspiracy of One starts with short spoken Intro by Mike Love of The Beach Boys (Taken from a Beach Boys live concert). Some versions of the album contain Huck It as track 14, some have Staring at the Sun (Live) as track 14 and All I Want (Live) as track 15, but most only contain tracks 1-13.
