Music reviews of Rancid
Music Review: Worst album from my favorite band
Rating: 2 Stars
Any music review is founded in opinion. Rancid is my favorite band, I have all of their CD's and know most songs by heart. I feel like they made this record to prove they were still punk, whatever that means these days. Personally I could care less about what gets labeled this or that. I didn't enjoy this record from first listen and it never grew on me. If I wanted loud nonsense I would have headed down to a local high school punk band show. These guys are better than this and it left me very dissapointed. My favorite Rancid discs are Life Won't Wait and Out Come the Wolves. If you enjoy their ska influenced songs look elsewhere.
Description of Rancid
Albums that make Amazon.com's yearly "best of" list are sometimes judged using high-falutin' artsy talk. Rancid has landed on the list because it compelled editors to scribble anarchy symbols in public hallways, buy skateboards, and start punk bands. Twenty-two songs, 39 minutes, and not one wasted second. A pure punk joyride with the throttle wide open. --S. DudaCritics love to toss spitballs 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 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
