totally agree with the first part but i never went back for them (you never know tho..)

kick him when he's down and gotta get away i think are my favorites

"Pay the Man" is right up there at the top of the list.

"Self Esteem" is a close second, mostly because I think the guitar solo is cool.

kick him when hes down was one of the reasons i went back to that album. that and dirty magic. was feeling pretty down and they felt like the right songs to get that feeling out

yeah these 2 songs are good reasons to remember ignition. they have that 'sad thing' (dont have better words to describe it) wich worked for some later offspring songs too like gone away (good but kinda melodramatic)

on the other side of the spectrum i also like their ska moments (dont pick it up and what in the world happened to you?)

Nice to see an Offspring thread -
Agree on Original Prankster,
Gone Away is Must!

I always connect that with Social Distortion's I Was Wrong - not lyrically. Possibly, maybe, released around same time - but also something in sound.
Anyone else hear it?
