The Offspring are back swinging with “Looking Out for Number 1” and it’s got that classic, snot-nosed energy that makes you remember why they’ve stayed staples of punk-inspired rock for decades. The riffs are sharp, the tempo relentless, and the hooks unapologetically bratty.
These guys have been stirring up chaos since the 90s, and somehow they’ve managed to keep the fire raging while still sounding fresh. “Looking” is proof that the Offspring aren’t interested in nostalgia tours — they’re still kicking up dust with new music that belongs in the here and now.
