The Offspring‘s eleventh album, Supercharged, arrives in October, and so they’ve unveiled one other monitor from it, the propulsive rocker “Gentle It Up.” “This track is a full-speed-ahead juggernaut!” vocalist Dexter Holland says, including, “This character within the track is fed up. He’s had sufficient, and he’s gonna mild it up. He’s prepared for a battle. And I positively sense lots of that round me. Rising up, a few of my favourite songs had been by punk bands that had been identical to, ‘I’m sick of your shit.’ And that was OK! It wasn’t a damaging factor to have these emotions and specific that. And I believe that’s type of the vibe of the place ‘Gentle It Up’ is: You’re fed up, you’ve had it, and also you wish to do one thing about it. That’s one of many issues I’ve at all times beloved about punk rock. It’s at all times been about letting out your aggressions, and I believe that’s nonetheless true. I nonetheless love writing songs like that.”
In the meantime, again in Could, the Offspring performed Slovakia’s Starmus Competition, the place they had been joined onstage by pageant co-founder Mind Could of Queen on two songs — “Gone Away,” and Queen’s “Stone Chilly Loopy.” They shared movies of these performances, which you’ll be able to watch beneath.
