Americana is the fifth studio album by the American punk rock band The Offspring, released on November 17, 1998 (see 1998 in music). Following a worldwide tour in support of its previous album, Ixnay on the Hombre (1997), The Offspring commenced work on a new album. The music on the album marked a change, expanding their sound and exploring more alternative rock/pop punk/ska punk sounds.
Americana was a huge success, debuting at number two with around 175,000 copies sold in its first week on the Billboard 200, becoming the Offspring's highest ever chart position. It is the band's second best selling album. The Offspring supported the album with a worldwide tour and appeared at the infamous Woodstock 1999, where their performance was broadcast live on pay-per-view television. Americana has sold more than 12 million records worldwide, while going platinum 5x in the United States. The album contains the hit singles "Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)", "Why Don't You Get a Job?", "The Kids Aren't Alright" and "She's Got Issues". The singles (except "She's Got Issues") can also be heard on the band's Greatest Hits compilation.
