produced four successful hit singles

It would not be until ten years after forming that The Offspring saw its first piece of commercial success in its third album, Smash , which was released in 1994. Regarded by many as The Offspring’s classic release, and Epitaph Records ‘ best-selling album, Smash produced four successful hit singles: ” Come Out and Play ” (which reached #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart), ” Self Esteem “, ” Gotta Get Away ” and the radio-only single “Bad Habit”. From there, The Offspring became one of the most important punk bands of the 1990s, along with ALL , Bad Religion , Face to Face , Green Day , Guttermouth , Lagwagon , NOFX , Pennywise , Rancid , Social Distortion , The Vandals , and many others.
