I bought this CD used from amazon for a total of $3.95. At 19 awesome songs, it was such a steal!
This CD is the third album by Rancid, and was introduced to the masses on August 22nd, 1995.
Oh, Epitaph records, back when you actually signed good music.
Anyway, Rancid is a ska-punk band from Southern California, and this CD was pre-dominantely recorded between February and May of 1995. The cover art you see here is a tribute to Minor Threat, and the title is from a poem in The Basketball Diaries written by Jim Carroll.
Now, I absolutely love this CD. I decided to purchase it after hearing "Ruby Soho", "Journey to the End of East Bay", and "Time Bomb". I heard from various punks, both online and in person, that this was one of the best CD's you could spend money on. So, I bought it for almost nothing, which was fantastic! But, after hearing the CD I would've gladly spent 10-15$ on it. Below, i'm posting the songs in order, the length of the song, and if you click on the song title it'll take you to YouTube. Where you can listen to each song individually and decide for yourselves!
