Okay, well i just finished all 9 of Rancid's studio albums. It was a ride for sure, as someone who was never exposed to punk and what little i did know was the Warlock Pinchers kung fu album. I didn't know what i was in for with the band Rancid. I had to have Genius lyric page up the whole entire time because it was hard to understand what Tim was saying. But i am very glad/humbled that i did. Im sure ill be preaching to the choir at some points but to read these songs especially in the first 2 albums I was very surprised how quickly relatable i found some of Tims thoughts. Definitely made me think about stuff and also showed how vapid some of my own problems are. I'm also surprised and humbled again about the realm of the "musicsphere" this occupies, just music from people who would be considered slum in society talking about not giving up and adding on a political stance to it. Its honestly f&%king insane. i kept thinking to myself "what the fuccck." I know its only one band but i was having some crazy revelations. Also felt nice hearing someone yell about politics in way that made me feel not crazy. Always nice to feel not crazy. Since I listened to all these albums in chronological order I really got to see tim's growth in life through what he talks about and the band as musicians and songwriters which was pretty neat. Granted in the later years i was losing hope not gonna lie but yeah ill get to that. One thing that would float in my head from time to time is i knew rancid wasn't the first punk band since he shouts out people like the Ramones. So this "formula" isn't new the time rancid came around. But when did punk start? Who started it? I would like to know maybe in another thread or this one if anybody wants to take the time to point me in the right direction. Okay its Rank Time.NUMBER 1#Trouble Maker 2017  This Album earned number 1 because of the story line that was created by listening to the albums in chronological order. Let the Dominoes fall and Honor is all we know felt kind of contradictory and just not it. Like when you want Pringles but all you have are Stacks type thing. But when i skull drug through those albums to this album it was like a metaphorical tear to my eye. A "their back babyyy" type moment i felt with this one and i felt proud of Tim and Rancid. Favorite Tracks Telegraph Avenue, Make it out alive.Number 2#Rancid 2000 This would be number 1 if i didn't feel the way i did about Trouble maker. The best work that they put together with rawness, maturity and structure in Tim's song writing like a complete vision of his first 2 albums maybe? This was when i really started internalizing Rancid. Certified slap in my books.Favorite Tracks: Rattlesnake, Let me Go, GGF, Loki, Poison. Number 3#
Life Wont Wait 1998 Now through their projects they switch from ska to not ska a lot of the time. For me ska gets kind of stale but this was very fun coming in at their 4th album i think this was a solid evolution and they executed it well. While reading the lyrics for Life Wont Wait song I was bopping really into it all on that NWO shit. Then the end hit with "victimize ... Mental slavery with the clever disguise Our prides on our people must rise Decide your fate...life wont wait." i was like damn... kinda ruined the bop mood but it was for the best. Also who would've thought was another moment for me that made me respect the band went from raw raw raw to singing about a girl and thought that was nice. Favorite Tracks: Crane fist, Life Wont Wait,Warsaw. Number 4#Rancid 1993Loud, fast, good. Really liked to hear how it was for younger tim talking about alcoholism and cocaine a lot with aspects of living in the city. Its raw and i like that a lot. BASSWORK is somthin else, thats how bass should be played all the time imo. Some stuff i related to, being to broke to eat, being broke again lol, but "buckle up the rides, getting rough and i will not lose my mind." When i was just surviving off a mac and cheese cup and some coffee and some days not even eat i personally just said f&%k it and would steal my friends weed to at least get high asf and it really built an animosity to life. Didn't have the right approach like that and i really wish i could go back in time to those days and be like yo listen to this. might've saved a couple bridges here or there. Favorite Tracks: Adina, Hyena, Rats in the Hallway, outta my mind, animosity, The bottle, holiday sunrise, injury.
Number 5#Indestructible This was a big change of pace and i was really surprised i later learned it was because he was dealing with his wife cheating on him yikes. The first half was ehhh but the second half really got me and i was really....amused? By how Tim was touching on different subjects like "start now." doing different sounds "travis bickle" and the band was just having his back. Favorite tracks: Arrested in shanghai, travis bickle, memphis.
Number 6#
Lets Go!
This was just his first album but a little less raw but more precises and fine tuned. Good album really nothing to much to say but the bands growth is clearly there a little more rock which will concert more later on some albums. Related to a lot of songs on this album too. Favorite tracks: Side Kick, Radio, Burn, midnight,The ballad of jimmy and johnny. Number 7#
... And Out Come The wolves
This was the first album where i was like okay:/ it has a few good ones but for some reason nothing too memorable with this album kinda bland maybe? I'm approaching the 12 hour mark of pure Rancid so im just going to leave it at that because yuh. It starts and ends with you!!! Favorite Songs: 11th hour, Time Bomb, Olympia WA, Disorder and Disarray.
Number 8#...Honor is all we know This is coming from a 5 year hiatus yes. But it really just felt substance less imo coming from the previous album it just felt like a step back to take a step forward and it made the album feel staged? and not it imo or maybe it was the mixing. Still a okay album with more of a rancid sound from indestructible and dominoes but yeah thats just me. Favorite tracks: Evil is my friend.
Number 9#Let The Dominoes FallI did not like this because it felt like a flip flop to punk i guess? like how can you be about fire and those things you yell about to then go pop? i understand bands evolve people get older thoughts change but man this album just rubbed me the wrong way. in terms of evolving they do a pretty good job with trying it.
Favorite song all time is rattlesnake. Thanks for the music, i'm going to bed now. it was very worth it. |

OMFG BUGFACE, WTF. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, listening to ALL of Rancid's albums back to back!!! 
Dude... that had to be like... at least 10 hours of Rancid nonstop... why???!?
And I can't believe you put their most recent one at the very top... and Out Come The Wolves towards the bottom... I want to tell you you are wrong, but at the same time love this break down and much respect to listening to them all all the way through like this.
LOL, I guess I am gonna post my RANKS, even though I gotta admit, I have not listened to all of Rancid's nine albums yet.
1. ...And Out Come The Wolves (1995)
This one has all of the hits on it, plain and simple wether you like it or not. You just can't argue with that.
2. Rancid (1993)
This one I like the most as my tastes in punk have more matured and myself as an older man. I don't know why, maybe it's fast and Tim's voice doesn't bother me as much on these songs. but very fast.
3. Indestructible (2003)
This one was my introduction to the band, so it holds a special place in my heart, even though it probably doesn't deserve to be ranked this high. I probably first listened to it when Cory V posted a download link in the original Springfield underground forum in 2008.
4. Let's Go! (1994)
Another classic, in between Out Come The Wolves and Rancid 1993. Fast songs, some hits, like "Radio" which I remember being covered at Black Sheep shows numerous times.
5. Rancid (2000)
I gotta be honest, haven't really listened to this one the whole way through, but based on what I hear, it's good.
6. Trouble Maker (2019)
I have no desire to listen to this, but based on reading BugFace's review I respect that and it sounds like this might be one of the better later Rancid albums.
7. ...Honor Is All We Know (2014)
Probably sounds the same as Trouble Maker, but I'll stick this one right below.
8. Life Won't Wait (1998)
This is also one I never listened to in full, but based on the title track song posted earlier in the thread it sounds awful
9. Let The Dominoes Fall (2009)
I was excited for this album to come out when I was a 19 year old boy and then it did and it grew very stale very quick. this album ruined all of Rancid for me, the more I listened to it the more I hated all of their albums and it made them all sound the same. favorite track: "Up To No Good"

that's enough talking about Rancid, you should all be listening to The Transplants right now instead.

I think Kevin IS RIGHT. Favorite song was probably 'as wicked'. Last time I listened to anything rancid related was definitely the transplants when that album came out. That some d.r.e.a.m. was awesome, lol. That whole album is kind of hilarious.
*I'm trying to write .b.r.i.a.n. but it keeps changing to Kevin???

This is Downfall. This is post Op Ivy, pre-Rancid. Basically it was Op Ivy but without Jessie and Tim wrote all the songs.
