Sundry Sunday is our weekly feature of fun gaming culture finds and videos, from across the years and even decades.
The Offspring are a punk band best known to our readers as contributing, along with Bad Religion, some of the iconic soundtrack to Sega’s Crazy Taxi. This game-themed music video from them, to their song The Kids Aren’t Alright, is very short at only a minute an a half, but it’s not a bad use of that short period of time. Here:
Looking up The Offspring reveals they got their start way back in 1984. Wow! I had assumed they were founded a lot more recently than that! They’ve also had a fair bit of member churn over the years, with one member who was ejected during COVID for refusing to get vaccinated. The song in the video is a remix of one of their older hits, and actually predates Crazy Taxi.
