Debuting at number four on the Billboard 200, Smash produced three hit singles: " Come Out and Play", " Self Esteem" and " Gotta Get Away". Smash was a critically acclaimed album, also the band's most successful yet.
At the time, Ignition had sold only 15,000 copies. In April 1994, The Offspring released Smash. Two years later, after the release of the Baghdad EP and another demo, the band signed to Epitaph Records (a label owned by then-former and now-current Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz), who released the band's second album, Ignition, in 1992. That album would not be released on CD until 1995. The Offspring signed a record deal with short-lived label Nemesis Records, and released its first album, The Offspring, in 1989 on vinyl only. After Manic Subsidal changed its name to The Offspring in 1986, drummer Ron Welty finally joined in 1987, then the band recorded a demo a year later.
The Offspring were formed in 1983 under the name Manic Subsidal by singer/guitarist Dexter Holland and bassist Greg K., who later recruited Noodles as their guitarist. The Offspring, a Southern California-based punk rock band, has released 10 studio albums, four extended plays (EP), two compilation albums, five demos, three video albums, and over 30 singles. Greatest Hits peaked at #8 on the Billboard 200, with 70,000 copies sold in its first week of release, and has been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.Ġ2 Come Out and Play (Keep 'Em Separated).The Offspring at Download Festival in 2008
