Title: Rancid Anyone?
Post by: pmcd9 on March 29, 2004, 05:10:00 am

While searching for something to entice my 13 year old nephew further over to the dark side I rediscovered Rancid.  I had forgotten how enjoyable they are.

Rightly so!  Rancid and I go way back.  I progressed from them back to the Sex Pistols, the Damned,  the Buzzcocks, and the X-Ray Spex, and then through to Bikini Kill, then to full-on indie.  And I must have been 13 or a tiny bit younger when I got into them, so they're probably a very good call for yonder nephew.
There was a time when I didn't like talking about my "punk phase", but I still enjoy Rancid in small quantities, particularly 'And Out Come the Wolves', but also their "eponymous début".  Besides, they'll always have that thing where Matt Freedman is indisputably some sort of bass god.

Oh Christ yes, Slink, don't try to listen to their new stuff.  I find it embarassing.

These two albums are the bookends of their listenable phase.
