I guess he forgot about Scott Shiflett from Face to Face, who completely kicks ass on the bass :) Honestly though, Matt Freeman is up there with the best of them simply because of how melodic and compelling his bass playing is. And Out Come The Wolves was killer in that regard--just meaty, melodic bass lines that were tasty and addictive :)
that is the beauty of Rancid (and also Transplants)......sometimes you hear the song and its so different from that other version you just heard but you know its them and sometimes it just hits a little bit harder with the new key, at that time in your life. Spontaneous as hell and I love it! They sounded great in this one!
Skinhead Rob is becoming one of my favorite artists of all time. He brings a certain energy to every song that I hear that just pumps me up so much! Watching the videos with him and Travis Barker are guaranteed to get my hyped, they both go so hard all the time! (I know Travis isnt in this one, but still) How can you listen to this and not be psyched up? You would have to be dead!
Anyone know any punk bands that aren’t.. left wing pussies? I can barely stomach NOFX anymore after growing up on them. These days I basically just listen to And Out Come The Wolves, old school Green Day, and a bunch of random Vandals songs
No kidding eh, Rancid have had some surprisingly great keyboard parts, and it's not normally an instrument you'd expect to see in a punk rock band. Time Bomb is another one, the keyboard lick fits it perfectly!
I was watching worried about what this national main stream audience thought of our beloved band and then realized it’s a blessing for them to hear this masterpiece
I have loved Transplants for a while but have been getting into Rancid and while my partner at work plays this song, its doesnt sound quite the same, but I am really glad I caught it in this video, I understand the song so much better! And they did good! The whole world should hear this music! A blessing indeed!
Oh my GAWD!!! the lyrics mean soooo much to me already! They're playing ROSELAND! Next daze! Kurdt had OD'd right before on eof the last shows that was there. I have before! Many if times! 14plus! How he did that show after!!😮😮😮😬😬😳😳😳😖😇😇😇 Seeing this shed brighter light!!! One of if not my fave song if Ind!🤘🎸🤘🎸🍻🍻🍹🍹😎
Actually, many consider this to be the "beginning of the end" of old-school punk because this is when the really melodic stuff was becoming widely known and very popular (early 2000s.) It started happening in the '90s and by the time this was released it was in full swing. If you ask me though, THIS is the good shit. I always preferred the more melodic style of stuff, even if it's "pop". So, in my own opinion it took quite a while for punk rock to become really good music.
@@devilsoffspring5519 That is a very interesting observation. I agree with you assessment of THIS being the good shit. Some pop punk is too much pop for me, but it's still a more enjoyable listening experience than something like Sex Pistols lol.
@@dgates6165 I'll give the Pistols, the Clash, Black Flag, Kennedys etc. the credit they're due. They're the originals, they made people aware that punk was something people do. It's just that I like *music*, and this shit's leaps and bounds ahead of the intensely angry and "authentic" old-school punk because it's much better developed musically/melodically. I guess it doesn't matter, I just prefer it. :)
@@dgates6165 No doubt, they're the ones that got the ball rolling. I'll admit to a fondness for some of the really poppy stuff, although I'm getting far too old for most of that shit. I don't listen the the really early Green Day anymore, for example. I just think their newer stuff is much better. On the other hand I still really dig I'd Do Anything from Simple Plan for some reason, and that stuff's as poppy as it gets. I don't listen to most of the rest of that album though.
That's an *outstanding* performance! Just goes to show how good these guys are. Rancid commonly get dismissed as "mere" pop-punk, probably because they play really melodic songs, but they certainly have plenty of talent!
@@jacknone1564 Tim payed his dues as he was the only guitarist in Operation Ivy and Rancid's first album. He can play, but now just throws in some fillers here and there now.
I saw them live once back in about '98 or something, Horrible FUN, Tim got in a fight with somebody mid-song, Matt threw his bass in the crowd, never got kicked off stage OR left. Played their whole set, kinda.
It's a performance on mainstream TV, they can't cuss a blue streak and still broadcast it because the TV station will take it off the air (the companies that pay for commercial time will complain, and they won't broadcast it)
@@devilsoffspring5519 quite literally what I said “but tv right” implicates I obviously know why it was said. Doesn’t make it any less funny to hear lars yell that instead
@@Streetwisepunx1313 I know, but the musical performance itself is outstanding. It almost doesn't matter that "the Man" was keeping them down, because of how well-done the actual performance is.
Does Tim Armstrong just not like playing guitar or is he just more about just dancing around with a guitar around his neck? I am a musician of 24 years asking this btw.
During the tour of Indestructable he "stopped" playing guitar live, although he plays certain parts like at the intro here. I don't know the reason, but go back to performances earlier than this and he played the hell out of the guitar. Especially if you look back on performances from Rancid (1993) and Let's Go. Then the boy truly had some pent up energy.
Imagine being talented enough to do THIS. They have to eat the swear words to play on TV, and that's it. This was broadcast television--no cussing or the show gets canned.
@@nicholasemerson9852 So, they'd be better off not playing at all just to win punk points? C'mon, get real, this is a great performance that nobody would have seen otherwise. The swear words in Red Hot Moon are a part of the original lyric, but they are not fundamental to the song, and if need be, they can be glossed over for a TV performance without ruining the whole song. A song like Bad Habit, from the Offspring, cannot be played without the swearing because it's fundamental to the song, and taking it out would ruin the song. Bad Habit is a song about road rage, so taking out the swearing would obliterate the point of the song--but, that simply isn't the case with Red Hot Moon. See what I mean?
Censorship sucks, which is why they had to make up for it by kicking fucking ass :) How come you aren't digging the rap? It works really well in the song and gives it extra impact and attitude. It's really good

Lars and Matt, and that’s it. Replace the drummer with anyone, Brett was capable though; and replace the clown with the fake guitar not turned on. Could’ve been so much more than a phony pop-punk band. It was never about fashion. Can’t take away from their success though, not even a little, and good on them, I hope they’re doing well. Line up the lemmings and Green Day, Rancid and *insert phony pop-punk band here* will come calling. I like it all just fine, but call a spade a spade. It’s pop music. TSOL, D.O.A., Vandals, Viletones, Bad Brains, Hüsker Dü, Fear, Stiff Little Fingers et al. were punk bands. Blondie is 10x more punk than Rancid could ever dream of being.
You're calling Tim Armstrong a phoney. Founder of Rancid and Op Ivy, one of the most creative musicians in modern punk and one of the most unique and distinctive punk voices..a phoney. Kid, Rancid has the most diverse song and album plethora not because they went pop, but because of Tim's creative energy and inspiration. Now you can go to sleep enlightened.
Hard to believe that song was allowed on mainstream TV. "Found her in a dugout...she wouldn't wake up" Hey is Tim Armstrong related to Edwin Armstrong, the guy who invented FM radio, FM radio that could possibly play Rancid songs? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_Howard_Armstrong

The best punk rock bass player on the planet and one of the best in the world, period -Matt Freeman!
I Agree 🙏
Is it not the same thing? The planet and the world? I'm just saying. But I totally agree.
Read more carefully, my friend. The best PUNK bass player on the planet, if not the best (over all) bass players in the world. Nuance.
I guess he forgot about Scott Shiflett from Face to Face, who completely kicks ass on the bass :)
Honestly though, Matt Freeman is up there with the best of them simply because of how melodic and compelling his bass playing is. And Out Come The Wolves was killer in that regard--just meaty, melodic bass lines that were tasty and addictive :)
Devil's Offspring No arguments here, bruh.
No autotune here - slightly off key is beautiful
I agree!👍
no punk band would ever be caught dead with autotune
On-key is ALWAYS better. It doesn't matter what kind of music it is. This is a great performance nonetheless!
Imperfection is perfection.
that is the beauty of Rancid (and also Transplants)......sometimes you hear the song and its so different from that other version you just heard but you know its them and sometimes it just hits a little bit harder with the new key, at that time in your life. Spontaneous as hell and I love it!
They sounded great in this one!
Tim voice is so unique and very lyrical and very sophisticated and very energetic guy.
Rancid helped punk get back in the mainstream in the early 90s.
Rancid, Green Day, The Offspring, Blink, Nirvana, Bad Religion, Strung Out. AKA the golden age of punk.

Back when late night television didn't suck
I remember staying up for this. Had my blank vhs and recorded it
Ps. Skinhead Rob is one of the nicest dudes I’ve ever met. Every time I’d see him after the first time I met him he’d call me by my name.
Your story and the thing about Rob is so cute and nice to hear. Thanks for sharing! Rock on

that was me most of the 90's...look in entertainment weekly to see who was on the late night shows....my own youtube, before youtube....still got'em
@@nofxjimi yeah I still got this on vhs…somewhere
Anytime you got Vic on keys it’s going to be magical.

It's still around, just not advertised as much.
@@devilsoffspring5519 It is for sure. But still the bar was set pretty high in these days and I don't think modern bands are in the same league.

Omg Tim with no beard and Lars with hair! Love these guys. Fuckin covid made me miss from Boston to Berkeley this year. 😭

Tim's guitar playing was so good. Loved how he looked at it occasionally.
he is like the flavor flav of punk, but instead of giant clocks around the neck, he wears a big guitar
in op ivy he did play occasionally.

there is a transplants show somewhere on here, where his guitar is entirely playback

What is it about Tim - you see him making more effort looking like he cant play guitar than he can. lol
Totally! What was he doing?
It's funny cuz he doesn't really sing and he doesn't really play guitar but we love him just the same lol. He's basically the mascot of rancid.
