The Offspring's Noodles' songs that made their mark

If you grew up in the 90’s, you grew up with The Offspring. The Cali punks may have formed in the 80’s, but it was their 1994 album Smash that helped them break through; quite literally, it holds the record for the highest selling independent album, 11 million copies worldwide. Bad Habit, Self Esteem, Come Out and Play… these are the songs that soundtrack our youth, that we yelled back at when they played on the radio, and that made their mark. When Noodles from The Offspring came in to Take 5, I asked him to share the songs that had left their impression on him; music that had changed the way he saw the world. From The Damned to Dead Kennedy’s, Divinyls to The Clash, this is a trip through Noodles’ punk heart.

The Clash - ‘Clampdown’

The Damned - ‘Smash It Up Parts 1 & 2’

Divinyls - ‘Boys In Town’

Ramones - ‘Beat On The Brat’

Dead Kennedys - ‘California Uber Alles’
