This EP was the turning point for the band; due to its success the band signed with Epitaph Records. [[Thom Wilson]], who produced The Offspring's first two albums, had been trying to get the Offspring to switch to Epitaph, a label run by [[Bad Religion]] guitarist [[Brett Gurewitz]]. Gurewitz felt that The Offspring was just not quite pronounced enough for his label, but ''Baghdad'' convinced him to give the band a shot. Wilson and The Offspring entered the studio again and recorded ''[[Ignition (The Offspring album)|Ignition]]''. Released in 1992, ''Ignition'' exceeded all of the label's and band's expectations.<ref>[http://www.thetabworld.com/Offspring_biography.html Offspring Biography]</ref> Following the subsequent touring to support ''Ignition'', The Offspring began writing new material for their third album in mid-1993. Recording sessions for ''Smash'' took place in January and February 1994 at Track Record in [[North Hollywood, Los Angeles, California|North Hollywood]]. On the recording process of the album, frontman [[Dexter Holland]] told ''[[Flux Magazine (US)|Flux Magazine]]'' in 1994, "When we recorded this album, our last one has sold maybe 15,000 copies, so the possibility of us getting played on the radio or anything like that was pretty much nonexistent. Especially because this kind of music is not generally considered acceptable by the mainstream - so, for something like this to happen, it really took us by surprise."<ref name="fluxmagazine">{{cite journal |last=Grad |first=David |title=Smashing Punk Kings |journal=[[Flux Magazine (US)|Flux Magazine]] |year=1994}}</ref> ''Smash'' had a small budget of $20,000, which frequently restricted the band - according to guitarist [[Noodles (musician)|Noodles]], "[we] were constantly calling our studio to find out when it was empty just so we could sneak in at a discount price" - and the last four songs recorded for the album were worked on through just two nights.<ref>[http://teamrock.com/feature/2017-11-22/the-offspring-their-best-albums-in-their-own-words The Offspring: Their best albums in their own words]</ref><ref name=rs/> ==Writing and composition== [[Image:Offspringlive.jpg|thumb|left|"Come Out and Play" and "Self Esteem" have been played at almost every live show.]] Punk rock bands like [[Green Day]] and [[Rancid (band)|Rancid]] were gaining popularity, and riding on this wave of popularity, ''Smash'''s singles became radio rock hits. An example of this was the success of The Offspring's first major single release, "Come Out and Play", which reached #1 on ''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]'' [[Modern Rock Tracks]] chart. The second single released from the album, "[[Self Esteem (song)|Self Esteem]]", became a radio hit, managing to peak at number 4 on the ''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]'' [[Modern Rock Tracks]] chart, although it didn't hit number 1 like its prior hit, "Self Esteem" was actually more popular and more successful worldwide. The lyrics are about an [[abusive]] relationship in which the girl takes advantage of her boyfriend, as he has "no self-esteem" to stand up to her. Contrary to popular belief, the song is not autobiographical. In an interview Dexter revealed that it is about one of his old friends.{{Citation needed|date=January 2013}} This song was the most successful and most popular of the album's three singles. The third single, "[[Gotta Get Away (The Offspring song)|Gotta Get Away]]" was another rock radio hit, although it was not as successful as the previous two singles. The song reached number 6 on the ''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]'' [[Modern Rock Tracks]] chart. Being the last song written for the album, the lyrics describe a point in Dexter's life when he was suffering from extreme pressure due to the then-upcoming deadline of the album. "What Happened To You" is driven by a [[Jamaica]]n [[ska]] beat.<ref name="ProofofPunk">{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1994/10/28/arts/pop-review-proof-of-punk-s-currency.html?src=pm|title=POP REVIEW; Proof of Punk's Currency|last=Strauss|first=Neil|date=October 28, 1994|accessdate=June 20, 2011|work=[[The New York Times]]|publisher=Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, Jr.}}</ref> A fourth song, "Bad Habit", received radio play in some areas, but was never officially released. However, it is often their set opener and is a favorite among fans. The lyrics discuss [[road rage]] to the point where the protagonist shoots at the car in front of him.

''Smash'' has been listed on several publications' best album lists. In November 2011, the album was ranked number two on ''[[Guitar World]]'' magazine's top ten list of guitar albums of 1994, between [[Bad Religion]]'s ''[[Stranger than Fiction (Bad Religion album)|Stranger than Fiction]]'' and [[Weezer]]'s ''[[Weezer (1994 album)|Weezer]]''.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=http://www.guitarworld.com/readers-poll-results-top-10-guitar-albums-1994 |title=Photo Gallery: The Top 10 Guitar Albums of 1994 |author=Grassi, Tony |magazine=[[Guitar World|GuitarWorld.com]] |accessdate=2011-11-08}}</ref> ''Guitar World'' also ranked ''Smash'' at number 31 in their "Superunknown: 50 Iconic Albums That Defined 1994" list.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.guitarworld.com/superunknown-50-iconic-albums-defined-1994 |title=Superunknown: 50 Iconic Albums That Defined 1994 |date=July 14, 2014 |work=[[Guitar World|GuitarWorld.com]] |accessdate=July 14, 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140715053900/http://www.guitarworld.com/superunknown-50-iconic-albums-defined-1994 |archive-date=July 15, 2014 }}</ref> Although The Offspring is a punk rock band, ''[[Loudwire]]'' placed ''Smash'' at No. 4 on its "10 Best Hard Rock Albums of 1994" list.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://loudwire.com/best-hard-rock-albums-1994/ |title=10 Best Hard Rock Albums of 1994 |date=May 20, 2014 |work=[[Loudwire]] |accessdate=May 21, 2014}}</ref> The album was included at number 6 on ''Rock Sound''{{'}}s "The 51 Most Essential Pop Punk Albums of All Time" list.<ref>Bird, ed. 2014, p. 73</ref> ''[[NME]]'' listed the album as one of "20 Pop Punk Albums Which Will Make You Nostalgic".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nme.com/photos/20-pop-punk-albums-which-will-make-you-nostalgic/340824|title=20 Pop Punk Albums Which Will Make You Nostalgic|date=June 9, 2014|work=NME.com|accessdate=July 29, 2015}}</ref> ==Artwork== [[Image:CDs The Offspring Smash Era.jpg|thumb|right|160px|''Smash'', as well as the CD singles "Come Out and Play," "Self Esteem," and "Gotta Get Away" all share imagery of an X-ray style skeleton on their covers.]] ''Smash,'' as well as the singles "Come Out and Play", "[[Self Esteem (song)|Self Esteem]]", and "[[Gotta Get Away (The Offspring song)|Gotta Get Away]]" have a common artwork theme: an ominous (and highly distorted) skeleton on the cover, disc, and back of the CD case. The music videos for "[[Self Esteem (song)|Self Esteem]]" and "Come Out and Play" also have several scenes with a similar skeleton. This symbol is believed to represent the core motifs of the album: death, greed, suicide, violence, addiction, and abuse. The skeleton is used to represent that the continuation of these acts will inevitably lead to death (or alternatively, the end of the human race). The art direction is credited to Kevin Head and Fred Hidalgo, who also designed the artwork for the [[Bad Religion]] album ''[[Recipe for Hate]]''.<ref>"Smash" Liner Notes</ref> ==Touring and promotion== The Offspring toured for more than two years to promote ''Smash''. They began a two-month U.S. tour in May 1994, supporting such bands as [[SNFU]], Battery Club and [[Pennywise (band)|Pennywise]], and then that summer, the band toured North America with [[Guttermouth]] and [[Big Drill Car]], and Europe with Desaster Area.<ref name="tourdates">{{cite web|url=http://www.offspring.com/tour |title=The Offspring - Tour |publisher=offspring.com |accessdate=2014-06-22}}</ref> In the wake of the success of ''Smash'', The Offspring was reportedly offered but turned down opening arena tours with bands like [[Stone Temple Pilots]] and [[Metallica]] (replacing [[Alice in Chains]] on the latter's [[Shit Hits the Sheds Tour|summer 1994 U.S. tour]]), due to their desire to continue playing in clubs; Holland has been quoted as saying, "It just really didn't seem like the right thing to do. I still like the club thing, even if it's a big club. I like Stone Temple Pilots—it's not like we're saying we're too punk for that."<ref>{{cite book |title=[[Sound of the Beast|Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal]] |publisher=[[Harper Paperbacks]] |date=2004 |last=Christe |first=Ian |page=[https://archive.org/details/soundofbeastcomp0000chri/page/305 305] |isbn=0-380-81127-8 }}</ref> The Offspring's next U.S. tour took place in October–November 1994, and was supported by [[Rancid (band)|Rancid]], who were promoting their second album ''[[Let's Go (Rancid album)|Let's Go]]''.
