The Offspring have debuted the title track / first single from their upcoming ninth album ‘Days Go By’ and it’s what you’d expect from these perennial Warped Tour rockers. Potent melodies, singalong choruses, big power chords, frontman Dexter Holland’s signature nasally vocals and a summer-appropriate energy.

While the Offspring have delivered their share of well-constructed but kitschy novelty songs (‘Pretty Fly (For a White Guy),’ ‘Why Don’t You Get a Job’ and ‘She’s Got Issues’), ‘Days Go By’ is gimmick-free. It’s a bit more contemplative, lyrically and comparatively speaking, as Holland ponders the then and the now. Overall, it has the bouncy rock vibe of a Foo Fighters tune with the added sprinkle of the Offspring’s American punk rock flavor.
