THE OFFSPRING CONSPIRACY OF ONE
20th Anniversary commemorative reissue!
Canary Yellow Colored Vinyl LP
The sixth album from the punk rock trailblazers!
Dexter Holland (vocals, guitar), Noodles (guitar), Greg K (bass) and Pete Parada (drums) are The Offspring, one of music's most exciting and enduring bands.
Conspiracy of One, the sixth album by punk rock trailblazers the Offspring, will once again be available on vinyl - the first time since its release in 2000. On December 11, Round Hill Records/UMe will release a deluxe version of Conspiracy of One pressed to yellow and red splatter vinyl, which includes spot gloss on the cover and a custom turntable slipmat featuring the Offspring's flaming skull silhouette logo.
All editions will feature the bonus track "Huck It." The anthemic, sub-three-minute blast was featured on their 2000 VHS/DVD Huck It and used to soundtrack various skateboard stunts, including longtime Offspring drummer Ron Welty doing a successful board-to-board leap over two of his bandmates.
Conspiracy of One, the first Offspring album of the 21st Century, was the fourth album from the game-changing punk group to be certified platinum, a feat completed only a month after its release on November 14, 2000. The album is best known for its lead single, "Original Prankster," a song that broke the Billboard Top 100 and hit No. 2 on the U.S. Alternative Airplay charts. The song and its mischievous video by director Dave Meyers included a funky sample from War's "Low Rider" and a cameo from hip-hop legend Redman. The album's follow-up single, "Want You Bad," could be heard in the film American Pie 2 and the video game Crazy Taxi 3: High Roller.
About the release, Dexter Holland said, "When we put Conspiracy of One out in 2000, Bill Clinton was still President, and September 11 hadn't happened yet. However, it was obvious that tensions were rising in the Middle East, and we could all sense that acts of terrorism were on the rise, both domestically and internationally. ... We realized that the world was changing and that future attacks against our country were just as likely to occur by an individual or a small group...a 'Conspiracy of One.' Of course, we had no idea what was in store for us on September 11, 2001, or how our title portended things to come."
