I saw no resemblance to any song in any part. It's ridiculous.

But one thing I have to agree on. The Offspring use instruments like guitars, drums, bass and vocals like the other bands do. So yeah Offspring are definetly copying other bands. What a dissapointment.

The Meaning of life rips off Generator by Bad Religion
They might've been thinking of Supersonic....I remember hearing that one and thinking, "This DEFINITELY sounds like Offspring's Meaning of Life." Of course, MoL came out in what, '97? Supersonic was '04 or something. But that doesn't really mean anything, anyway~

Eh, there are only so many chord progressions possible that sound good., I doubt that even 1/3 of all accusations are legit rip-offs, and you always get flamed by fans for pointing it out.

I always get flamed when I point out he similarities between End Of Fashion - O Yeah and Pixies - Where Is My Mind?, and there it isn't just the same chords, they also have the same loud/quiet song dynamics.

Most of those sound close but knowing how to read music and chords and all that I doubt you'd find one with the exact same notes or chord progression.

Well... you can't music out of nothing, can you? Their inspiration music come from somewhere.

Face it; No song is eccentric. Just turn on your music television channel. Doesn't every song sound familiar? I think so. You just take what you like and put something else there along with it.
