The first punk CD i ever listened to as a child, was none other than Rancid's CD - And Out Come the Wolves. Ever since my brother first introduced me to Rancid, my love of punk rock has only grown stronger.
Rancid was one of the bands that started punk in North America. Along with Green Day, they helped to shape and form modern day punk music. The band was formed back in 1991 by Matt Freeman, Tim Armstrong and Brett Reed. Brett later left the band and was replaced by Branden Steineckert in 2006. Greenday's Billie Joe played with the band for a while but later left which is when lead vocalist and second guitar player, Lars Frederiksen joined up. Due to the e
fforts and passion for their music and way of life, these California boys helped to spread punk all over North America throughout the 90's. The band has released 6 actual albums plus many other recordings.
Their mix of roots reggae, rockabilly and funk make for a very fun listen. Some of their best known songs are Ruby Soho, Roots Radicals, Time Bomb, and Salvation. The guys are still playing shows and selling albums. If you haven't heard Rancid yet i highly recommend picking up some of their stuff. So Play It!
