The Offspring - News

Storm Thorgerson R.I.P.

Remembering the artist Storm Thorgerson today. He was one of the most fun and creative people we've ever collaborated with (on our Splinter album cover and package). Storm's impact on culture globally is undeniable, just read this article. He gave me some of his work and it's with joy and gratitude that I see it hanging in my home everyday. He will be missed, our thoughts are with his family and friends. - Dexter Holland, The Offspring
