Not many people know about Ignition. I was literally OMW to this thread to post that as my favorite album of all time. They were so fucking raw back then. If not my favorite album, definitely in the top 3. Top three songs is impossible to nail down so I'll throw out three of my favorites. Offspring's best song wasn't on Ignition even though that's their best album stem to stern. This one gives me the feels of being on the lake in the pitch black midweek in 2002 when there was nobody around to annoy. When that sad guitar comes back in after the break, then they layer on track after track to a mad crescendo. Draiman is the only man alive who can make you think you hear angels and the devil in the same song. This is the best cover in the history of music period, and this live version is 1 billion times better than the studio version. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f7ben Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 Definitely a lot of decent pics in the thread. The whole premise of picking 3 songs is kinda dumb but I was drunk and rocking out lol 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually kind of liked their first album but everything after it was downhill for me. They did put on a pretty good show. I’m pretty critical of music I don’t love and I didn’t hate it lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my diehard favs that will never wane but I like to give others a listen sometimes as well. The thing I found out about Sully and admired was his past and how he righted himself plus all the talent the guy has. He can play anything.

I use to steal/borrow my sisters albums all the time and she'd get so pissed at me! This was one of them. Always liked Alice's early stuff. It wouldn't be right not putting this song up right after the one above. IIRC, there was only a split second gap between these songs?

irv Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 K, last one. I'm getting carried away here, but this is why I can't just pick 3 favorites. It's impossible for me to do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
