Q MagazineA safe, calculated release. [Jan 2004, p.121]
-
Alternative PressGranted, the Offspring have always dabbled in lyrical goofiness, but on Splinter, this approach seeps into the music as well. [Jan 2004, p.93]

It isn't that Splinter is such a bad disc per se, but more so that it is incredibly unsatisfying.
