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

In the wake of the Offspring's success, Rancid became a hot band, earning a dedicated cult
and sparking a major-label bidding war. After flirting with a handful of major labels, the band
decided to stick with Epitaph and returned with And Out Come the Wolves. While the title is a veiled
reference to the attention the band gained, the album doesn't mark an isolationist retreat into
didactic, defiantly underground punk rock. Instead, Rancid develop their own identity on the record,
which ironically makes them more accessible. Although they continue to draw heavily from
the Clash and the Specials -- and their roots in the ska-punk band Operation Ivy are quite clear
throughout the record -- the band plays with such energy and conviction,
it's easy to forgive their derivativeness...(AllMusic)
