Conspiracy of One is the sixth studio album by American rock band the Offspring, released on November 14, 2000, by Columbia Records. By the time of its release, the band had come out in support of peer-to-peer file sharing, claiming it would not hurt sales. Conspiracy of One was originally planned to be released directly on their website before retail, until Columbia Records threatened to sue and the album ended up as a physical release. The album was the last to feature drummer Ron Welty, who was fired from the band in 2003https://twitter.com/gregkriesel/status/1179622520384679936 {{Bare URL inline|date=August 2024}}{{cite web | url=https://www.docketbird.com/court-documents/Ron-Welty-vs-Offspring-Inc-et-al/Complaint/d-lasu-2020-cv-20STCV34993-2020-09-10-1791561755 | title=Ron Welty vs Offspring, Inc.,, et al.: Complaint | access-date=2024-02-29 | archive-date=2023-07-13 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230713012341/https://www.docketbird.com/court-documents/Ron-Welty-vs-Offspring-Inc-et-al/Complaint/d-lasu-2020-cv-20STCV34993-2020-09-10-1791561755 | url-status=dead }} and went on to form his own band Steady Ground.

Conspiracy of One debuted at number nine on the US Billboard 200, selling over 125,000 copies in its first week of sales,{{cite web|author=Joe D'Angelo |url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1482928/20031217/studdard_ruben.jhtml |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040325215837/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1482928/20031217/studdard_ruben.jhtml |url-status=dead |archive-date=March 25, 2004 |title=Ruben Debuts At #1 But Can't Match Clay's First-Week Sales - Music, Celebrity, Artist News |publisher=MTV |date=2003-12-17 |access-date=2010-12-19}} and spawned the singles "Original Prankster", "Want You Bad", and "Million Miles Away". Although not as successful as their previous album Americana (1998), it was later certified platinum by the RIAA in the United States.

Background and recording

The Offspring spent much of 1999 on tour promoting the Americana album. They also appeared at the infamous Woodstock 1999, where their performance was broadcast live on pay-per-view television. After some time off, the members reconvened in early 2000 to begin work on new material, nine songs of which were in the demo phase at the time. Frontman Dexter Holland told Rolling Stone in May 2000 that, "we came home last Christmas and we kind of took a month just trying to recoup and we started thinking, 'Well, do we want to get started on another record right away?'. "We're all pretty excited about the way things have gone so I spent a couple of months trying to come up with some new material and then [started] jamming out these demos."{{cite news |date=May 1, 2000 |url=http://www.euro.real.com/music/artist/The_Offspring/articles/367507/-related-articles-page-4/ |title=Offspring Prep for Next Album |author=Stephen Thomas Erlewine |author-link=Stephen Thomas Erlewine |publisher=Euro.Real.com |access-date=2010-08-19 }}{{dead link|date=August 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} The Offspring entered the studio to begin recording sessions for Conspiracy of One in June 2000. For the recording of the album, the band tapped Brendan O'Brien as its producer and recorded the album at NRG studios in North Hollywood, California over a two-month period.

Liana Jonas of AllMusic described Conspiracy of One as the Offspring's "most musically mature collection to date". Jonas praised the music as "tight arrangements, vocal interplay and refined guitar work" and claims the band injected "elements of hip hop, rap metal, and Nirvana-like grunge into a few songs". The album received a rating of three and a half out of five stars, while producing three singles, "Original Prankster", "Want You Bad" and "Million Miles Away", that earned the Offspring its commercial success.{{cite web|title=Conspiracy of One| website=AllMusic|url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=r505619|pure_url=yes}}|access-date=2007-12-20}} The album holds a score of 60 out of 100 from Metacritic based on "mixed or average reviews".{{cite web|url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/conspiracy-of-one/the-offspring/critic-reviews|title=Critic reviews for Conspiracy Of One|website=Metacritic|access-date=2012-10-23}} The album was included at number 13 on Rock Sound{{'}}s "The 51 Most Essential Pop Punk Albums of All Time" list.Bird, ed. 2014, p. 73
