Ignition is the second studio album by American punk rock band the Offspring, released on October 16, 1992, by Epitaph Records. Issued during the alternative rock and grunge era, the album brought the band small success in Southern California as they started to gather a following. This success would continue to grow with their next album, Smash (1994).
Ignition was certified gold on January 22, 1996, nearly two years after the release of Smash, and has sold over one million copies worldwide.[7] For the album's 20th anniversary in 2012, The Offspring played Ignition in its entirety for some selected concerts.[8][9] They also performed the album in 2017 at a benefit concert for 924 Gilman Street.[10]
The band re-recorded Ignition's sixth track "Dirty Magic" for their ninth studio album Days Go By, released twenty years later.

Unlike the group's first two releases, which were close to hardcore punk in genre, this third independent album leans more towards the emerging grunge rock and pop punk sound..
