Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Critics love to throw mud at Rancid. After all, they say, Rancid have sold out; Rancid aren't punk enough; Rancid don't stand for anything; Rancid can't play and they certainly can't sing; Rancid rip off the Clash at every turn, etc. While Rancid have certainly wrestled with all of these catcalls, one high-volume spin of Rancid is more than enough to convince even the most self-righteous punk that the pride of the Bay Area are back with a ragged vengeance. Gone are the reggae, ska, and dub experiments of Life Won't Wait: in their place is a furious attack of guitars, yelling, and more guitars. From its cover to the mostly illegible lyric sheet and on to the chaos inside, Rancid is paint-peeling punk rock of the highest order. Most of the 22 songs on this recording clock in at well under two minutes, and there are absolutely no ballads. Guitars are driven to within inches of meltdown, the bass careens just barely in control and vocals are delivered with raging conviction and sometimes even a touch of melody.

No, the notes aren't always right, and nothing here is presented with polish or precision, but what Rancid might lack in virtuoso technique they more than make up for in intensity. Songs like "Antennas" and "It's Quite Alright" are lean, tough, and gritty. This recording never lets up, never takes a breath, and never compromises. That's punk. --S Duda

Product Description

22 TRACK ALBUM A great thing about this album is how the singing is spread out pretty well - Lars Frederiksen, Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman each have very different types of voices to each other and this gives the album a nice mixture. Of course, as you'd expect in any Rancid album, Matt Freeman's bass playing is completely out of this world! If you thought his solo in Maxwell Murder from Out Come The Wolves was good, well you aint heard nothing until you hear the masterpiece of four-stringing soloing that takes place during Axiom

Well first of all, if you really liked ...And Out Come The Wolves and Life Won't Wait, then don't expect this to be much similar! Rancid (2000) - as it's known due to Rancid already having another self-titled album - is a record full of fine scream-along hardcore, with the average song clocking in well under 2 minutes.

The opening track Don Giovanni kicks the album off to a good start, lasting only 38 seconds before bursting straight into the ultra-angry Disgruntled.

It's not all screams and shouts though - songs such as Let Me Go, Radio Havana, Rwanda and Black Derby Jacket will for sure make you sing along with them in no time (well that's if you can reach Matt Freeman's low notes that he sings in Black Derby Jacket anyway!).

A great thing about this album is how the singing is spread out pretty well - Lars Frederiksen, Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman each have very different types of voices to each other and this gives the album a nice mixture. Of course, as you'd expect in any Rancid album, Matt Freeman's bass playing is completely out of this world! If you thought his solo in Maxwell Murder from Out Come The Wolves was good, well you aint heard nothing until you hear the masterpiece of four-stringing soloing that takes place during Axiom.

The thing I really like about this album, and I suppose, the thing that seperates it from other Rancid records, is how there isn't a quiet or slightly more laid-back moment throughout. Right from Don Giovanni through to the brilliant GGF, this album is full of pure, fast-paced, punk energy. And with 22 songs in less than 40 minutes, there really isn't any room for dull moments.

Best tracks - Let Me Go, Dead Bodies, Antennas, Black Derby Jacket, Young Al Capone, GGF
Most impressive moment - the aforementioned bass solo by Matt Freeman in Axiom

There, I've told you all you pretty much need to know - now go buy, buy, buy!!!!!!!! (oh, and if there any other rancid albums you aint got, go buy them too - it's all good!)

Fans of pop-punk beware, this IS the real thing.
One of Americas best and most talented bands has returned and the material on this cd is enough to make your stereo short circuit.
Their new offering is far harder than any of their others, energy filled guitar riffs, awe inspiring bass solos and Tim armstrongs vocals make this hard to beat.
The cd starts off with Don giovani, all 46 secs of it and after that listeners are in for a treat, the best songs being RWANDA, RADIO HAVANA, DEAD BODIES, POISON and AXIOM (mega bass solo) to name a few. There new material almost falls into the hardcore punk catagories but do not let this put you off, if you like any of their other stuff drop everything and buy this now.
This album gives pop-punk a swift kick in the balls!!.

Rancid 19 Sep 2002
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This is Rancid's first release on Hellcat Records (owned by Tim Armstrong the bands guitarist singer and primary songwriter). Tim wrote all of the songs on this record with Matt contributing to two songs and Lars four. It is "harder" than past Rancid releases but still sticks to the same catchy guitar riffs and basslines. A must for any real punk fan. So don't go and buy some cheesy pop-punk... buy some real punk. Songs to watch out for: "It's Quite Alright", "Black Hawk Down", "Loki", "Radio Havana"... AS Rancid would say "See Ya In The Pit!"
