Listening to Ignition, one gets the sense of rage tightly controlled, powering the bands uptempo, driving material. While their sensibility is firmly punk, the Offspring have clearly borrowedsome metal for their chord progressions and guitar sound--check out the solos on Nothing fromSomething and Forever and a Day. While this album didnt have the success of its follow-up,Smash, all the ingredients that made that record a hit are here, if not quite as refined: angry,incisive lyrics; fast-driving rhythms; and--dare one say it--melodic chord progressions. Its easyto hear why Ignition was an underground hit and why the Offsprings later records have beenso successful. Here it is re-mastered, with every note exactly the way it sounded in the studio tocelebrate the 30th anniversary!
