Rancid
Comment:
Politically driven, and notably loyal to indie label Epitaph/Hellcat despite a major-label bidding war ferocious enough to inspire the title of 1995's major success [i]. . . And Out Come the Wolves[/i], Rancid has retained its stature over nearly two decades as a neo-punk giant. Formed in the Bay Area in the early '90s by frontman Tim Armstrong and bassist Matt Freeman, who both served time in ska-punk bands, including Operation Ivy and Dance Hall Crashers, the outfit has delivered a respectfully fierce take on classic punk and 2-Tone ska — right down to guest spots for Lynval Golding, Roddy Byers, and Neville Staples from the Specials on "Hooligans." Enjoy the best of Rancid to date with this combination of seminal cuts, side project tracks (including the Transplants), and solo work.
