THE OFFSPRING debut video for ‘We Never Have Sex Anymore’ + UK arena tour with The Hives supporting November 2021


The video takes a literal animalistic approach, enlisting human’s closest genetic species – chimpanzees – to play out the lamentations of the punchy, horn-heavy, tongue-in-cheek song. The result is three and a half minutes that include all-too-familiar scenes of passions fading and a wild night out with John Stamos. 

“We Never Have Sex Anymore” is on The Offspring’s tenth studio album Let The Bad Times Roll, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Alternative album chart, charted at #2 on Billboard Top Rock Albums and #27 on the Billboard Top 200 in its first week. The album, which marks the band’s first in almost a decade, was released April 16th via Concord Records.
