RANCID
TIM ARMSTRONG, MATT FREEMAN, BRETT REED, LARS FREDERIKSEN
One of the cornerstone bands of the '90s punk revival, Rancid's unabashedly classicist sound
drew heavily from the Clash's early records, echoing their left-leaning politics and fascination
with ska, while adding a bit of post-hardcore crunch. While some critics dismissed Rancid
as derivative, others praised their political commitment, surging energy, and undeniable way with a hook.
And, regardless of critical debate over their significance, the band's strengths made
them perhaps the most popular neo-punk band after Green Day and the Offspring

Whatever Rancid lack in innovation, they make up with sheer energy.
The group rushes through Let's Go with an invigorating recklessness, sounding like a less-serious,
party-ready version of the Clash. It's almost impossible to understand what vocalist
Tim Armstrong sings at any given moment, yet there is no great meaning in what Rancid say,
the message is in the buzzing guitars and speeding rhythms. It doesn't hurt that the band can
throw out the occasional memorable hook or melody, like the single "Salvation," as well...(AllMusic)
