I like Sublime much better, though Offspring puts on a very good show and I think they are underrated because some of their stuff is cheesy.

Really? I've only seen them once in concert, but I was dissappointed because their show was lacking energy and they gave off this vibe like "Yeah, we're here...let's get this over with already." I must have just hit them on a bad night or something...

Lyrically, I'm going to go with Sublime. Both bands are fun to sing along to. Offspring has a little more crazy energy on their albums than Sublime though, imho.

When i saw them in '96 they were phenomenal, made me a fan because of the show. Saw them again in '04 and was surprised how much energy they still brought to the table. Either i caught good shows or you caught a bad one.

I had to have just caught them on a bad night. Like I said, I think their albums have mad energy, so it would make sense to me that their live shows would too. Looks like I'll just have to see them again.

My vote goes for Sublime, although Smash was a decent album.

Sublime for sure, can't stand the Offspring.

I just about prefer Sublime but I think they are both fairly unremarkable bands. Although Offspring's 'Can't Get My Head Around You' is insanely catchy.

Although I enjoy both, I just started listening to Offspring's Smash about ten minutes ago and it's addicting.

I haven't heard Offspring on the radio in years except in SoCal.

The Offspring, almost entirely because of "Bad Habit". The following line is the greatest lyric in history:

"You stupid dumbshit goddamn motherfucker"

4srs though, they have other good songs. And I haven't heard a whole lot of Sublime.
