Rancid fan of 30 years. How have I not heard of Matt's band Charger?! They sound great!

Going to go see them in December. They definitely flew under my radar.

Maroon cardigan

I really wish they would rerelease the maroon cardigan that they used to sell on the merch site. Always wanted to buy it but I was broke and couldn't afford it.

Modzi’s

How do I contact the mods!? They took down my doom regulator post because apparently it had no affiliation to any rancid members or side projects. Anyways, I was trying to add to it that I just noticed they updated Spotify with a picture whereas before I am pretty sure it was just the hellcat logo. Though I could be wrong but I don’t remember this new pic

THEORY: bonk bonk broke Tim

obviously exaggerating, but that song and project was so poorly received and he hasn’t really put anything out since. Comments are turned off for everything. He wasn’t in any social posts for Rancid for the entire Green Day tour and he’s the only guy in their entire crew to not be featured in Matt’s Bass Bunker Videos. Maybe it’s the Brody stuff coming back into conversation on tiktok etc, but personally I blame BONKBONK

Favorite Non-Album Songs?

Was listening to the B Sides and C Sides comp while driving to work, and realized some of my favorite Rancid songs aren't from their albums.

Songs like Blast'em, The Brothels and Brad Logan (though this wasn't on the comp.)

So just wondering what ya'lls favorite songs are that haven't been on a major release

I know this is the Rancid community, but I couldn’t find a Transplants community. So here is a Transplants fan art I made

Thoughts on Transplants?

I remember seeing DJ DJ video on MTV in 2002. i liked them at the time, but revisiting it hasn't held up too well for me. What are your guys' thoughts now that the dust has settled?

Cheesesteak

Recently Lars posted his fav cheesesteak in Philly. Anyone remember what it was? Any Philly heads that can chime in? I know this isn’t exactly rancid related but kinda is. I just wanna be like Lars.

Pit

Saw Rancid for the second time not long ago when they opened for Green Day. We were the ONLY ones getting a pit going. I had to tell all the other fools there to show some respect and GET MOVING!

Tim Armstrong print, Wars End

Since we are showing off our Tim Armstrong prints, here is mine. Wars End has always been my favorite Rancid song. This one hit me deep in my soul the first time I heard it... but never hits harder than seeing Lars rip this one out live on stage.

Missed opportunity

Little of a bummer to not see Rancid on the nofx tour anywhere. The split album is fuckin banger. Wonder if it had to do with the party side of it all, Tim’s long sobriety and Lars in AA…
