The Offspring Vs. P!ATD


....and along the same lines as yesterday's post, the Offspring were at it again with the 2008 track You're Gonna Go Far, Kid. To me it sounds like a knock off of Panic! At the Disco's 2006 Lying is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Off Her Clothes. Yep, that's the whole, pretentious title.

Check it out for yourself. You only have to listen to the first 30 seconds or so of each song to get the idea.

A lot of people started to credit Panic at the Disco with the demise of the "scene" with their dance-punk beats and synth setup, so I wouldn't be surprised if this Offspring song was a direct attack on them, but luckily Panic saved themselves with a fantastic sophomore release free of the synth crap you just heard. They even stopped dressing like that picture you see up top.
