Last saturday I bought Rancid's "And Out Come The Wolves". It's fun. "Time Bomb" gave me a nostalgia kick, it was played quite a bit upon its release when I was in high school.
Uh... not much to add, but I thought I'd talk about every purchase I did on saturday...

I had a hankering for this album just the other day at work, and I praise the power of mp3. I love it: Roots Radical, Olympia WA, some great songs.

I'm none too familiar with Rancid, but I always though Time Bomb was a bit too much of a Clash doing reggae pastiche, which I'd probably like better if it was tongue-in-cheek, although it is actually not a bad song. Spaeaking of album purchases, something liek the last four CDs I bought I haven't even listened to yet.

That whole album is fantastic. Unfortunately nothing else they did ever reached that, but ...WOLVES is such a great blast of short sweet pop goodness. There isn't a track i skip.

Rancid is not a good band. A few good pop melodies will show up du temps en temps on a Rancid album (i.e. "Travis Bickle" was always a guilty pleasure of mine), but I hate their stupid punk attitude; it's totally over the top.
Now, if you want a GOOD contemporary punk band, check out DILLINGER FOUR. |

I have Life Won't Wait, but I doubt I've taken it out if it's little tray since '99 or 2000.

Did like it quite a bit when it was released, though. I remember it was getting great reviews.

I always really liked the song on "...And Out Come the Wolves" about Operation Ivy.... "Journey to the end of East Bay" I think. There was a time when every bassist I knew would play that bassline all the time. Anyone else heard the other band that came out of Operation Ivy, Common Rider? I tend to prefer them actually. I liked Life Won't Wait quite a bit but it was pretty much downhill after that for me.

I liked the s/t album which was released in (I think) 2000. That's more of a hardcore style than Life Won't Wait, it's kind of cool.

| The Rancid(2000) album IS hardcore, but the rest is pop/ska punk. Like everyone else, I think Wolves is a classic, as well as Let's Go. |

Just bought Lars Frederiksen's solo album "Viking". It's produced by Tim Armstrong. Should be fun.

| Great record! I believe every word out of Tim Armstrong's mouth. To me, he's the real deal. His voice is so full of character. Great songs on this one, as well. 5 stars |

Some of their songs aren't bad. There's just something kind of funny about 40 year olds looking primed and ready for a punk rock fashion show.
