  • Rancid were formed in 1991 by San Francisco Bay Area punk scenesters Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman. Lifelong friends and longtime punk fans, the two grew up together in the small working class town of Albany near Berkeley, they'd also played together in the legendary ska punk band Operation Ivy, Armstrong as Lint and Freeman as Matt McCall. After Op Ivy disbanded in 1989, Armstrong and Freeman spent a few weeks in the ska punk outfit Dance Hall Crashers, as well as Downfall, Freeman later briefly joined the hardcore band MDC. Meanwhile, Armstrong was waging a battle with alcoholism, and to help keep his friend occupied, Freeman suggested they escape their day jobs by forming a new band, which became Rancid. The duo added drummer Brett Reed, Armstrong's roommate and a familiar presence on the Gilman Street scene where Operation Ivy had cut their teeth. Just a couple of months later, Rancid were performing live around the area and in 1992 they released a five song debut EP on Lookout Records.
    The EP caught the attention of Epitaph Records founder Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz, and Epitaph signed Rancid to a highly favorable contract guaranteeing the group a generous amount of creative control. The band's eponymously titled debut full length album arrived in 1993, pursuing an up tempo hardcore skatepunk style with few hints of early British punk. Rancid had been seeking a second guitarist, and Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong even played live with the group at one show. They pursued Lars Frederiksen, a Bay Area resident who'd joined a later incarnation of UK Subs and was performing with the band Slip, Frederiksen initially declined Rancid's invitation to join, but when Slip disbanded, he quickly changed his mind and came along on Rancid's first tour. Frederiksen made his recording debut on the early 1994 EP Radio Radio Radio, a side dalliance on Fat Wreck Chords. Released later that year, Let's Go was the album that made Rancid's name in the punk underground. It marked the beginnings of their fascination with the 1977 era London punk scene, particularly the Clash, and it also provided their first widespread exposure when MTV picked up on the video for the single Salvation. Let's Go quickly went gold, and with the breakout mainstream success of Green Day and the Offspring that year, major label interest in Rancid quickly escalated into a full fledged bidding war. Ultimately, Rancid decided that no major could offer them the level of decision making power that Epitaph had given them, and stayed right where they were.

    Rancid is a staple in my high school years. My top 3 favorite bands include them, NOFX and The Suicide Machines.. you can say if there was no Operation Ivy, there'd be no Rancid.. Op Ivy is IMO the most influential punk bands of all time.. you can say that The Ramones and The Sex Pistols were the Godfather's of punk but Operation Ivy brought punk to the masses.. influencing bands like The Suicide Machines, Bad Religion, NOFX, Green Day, Pennywise, The Offspring, Blink 182 etc.. even Billie Joe Armstrong thanked Tim and Op Ivy in their Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.. Tim Armstrong, Matt Freeman, Jesse Michaels and Dave Mello were the Godfather's of Ska Punk.

    Did I miss something about talking about his alcoholism? I use to date him during his height of success for around 6 months. I had my own career and he had his. He usually declined on all alcohol, but on an occasion sipped ONLY one beer. He stated he's alcoholic and out of control if chooses to drink.... Therefore rarely drank and if did, only nursed a single beer.
    This was back in mid 90's.
    Edit PS .... He HATES it when bartender and fans randomly show up with drinks.
    Don't do it!
    Don't touch him!
    Especially his hair!
    Don't ask for an autograph, but he's more giving now.
    If he wants a drink.... He'll order one for himself.

    If Tim was battling alcohol addiction, he couldn't have been in the right frame of mind. When he started dating Brody Dalle! For those who don't understand the dark struggle of addiction then, they shouldn't judge! I'm not making excuses for him, but a punk rocker with alcohol issues has most likely been through a fair share of trauma in his childhood. What caused his alcohol addiction!? What sent him down that path? And could he have been in a clear light frame of mind? He's human, and not all humans particularly humans battling addiction! Are going to see thing's from a bigger, and clearer perspective. His younger life set him on a path mental health is a serious thing, and can get very dark for anyone suffering! Sure I don't agree with his choice of dating at the time, but we've all been there. That battle the loneliness, and the dark clouds that follow stopping all from thinking clearly we've all done things we regret for all we know he could have huge regrets about dating brody, and holds a lots of shame, guilt and disappointment in himself for it which again is not easy for someone to go through! To anyone who doesn't understand what it's like going through trauma, addiction, regret, and life changing experiences that can be devastating! Go get an education in life itself, and actually see from your own experiences in hardship that just about anyone can make mistakes before you pass judgement, and judge yourself for the shit you have done it's not easy living with a past full of regret, and heartache! People looking at you like shit in the street half the time they have done something in their past they won't admit. That will get them, the same stinking looks!
