More pop-punk from sellouts.

Review Score: (6/10)
I own 5 of the 6 Offspring albums, 'Americana' is the one I listen to least. The band has switched its style, image, and lyrical-messages to appeal to a larger, dumber, and younger audience with 'Americana'; much of the depthful punk-attitude from their previous cds was lost in this one.

If you're thinking of buying this because of songs like "Why Don't You Get a Job" or "Pretty Fly", then you won't be dissapointed. Most of the album sounds like that. If you're looking into 'Americana' as a continuation of older albums like 'Smash', 'Ixnay', or 'Ignition', keep in mind that this sounds nothing like any of those. With this album, Offspring have (de)evolved into a more poppish-angry sound.
