The album comes after the band’s recent social media influenced release Come To Brazil. The Offspring have fans from all over the world, but the new track celebrates their fans who are asking them to (literally) Come To Brazil. The track produced by Bob Rock (Metallica, Mötley Crüe, Aerosmith) is another killer track off of the band’s SUPERCHARGED album. Listen to Come To Brazil HERE.
On the track Dexter Holland says: “Every time we announce any shows we get comments from our Brazilian fans saying ‘Come to Brazil!’ which we love! Brazil really does go off. It has enthusiasm, passion and is an amazing place to play! I hope the Brazilian fans really make this one their own!”
The song opens up with an iconic intro featuring heavy guitars and ends with the iconic football chant Olé, Olé, Olé, Olé all the while talking about how their Brazilian fans can’t get enough of The Offspring, noting lyrically:“It doesn’t matter how many times we came, ‘Cause they want us back again just the same, And the flights are long but they won’t stop, Until we come to Brazil.” The song also comments on the social media requests the band has received from their Brazilian fans noting: “DM’ing all the time, they’re begging you will say you’ll come to Brazil.”
The new track is already a fan favorite, especially with their Brazilian fans who have been posting about the song non-stop (see video here).
