Yo tengo 46 y llevo en el rollo punk y skinhead desde los 14. Ser PUNK es una ACTITUD. Yo hace años que no me disfrazo. Saludos desde España!!! HxC, Punk y Oi! forever!!
Lars has really aged well. He looks great. Family life has grounded him. Watching him makes me proud to still fly the punk flag in my mid 50s. Always felt his vocals were among the best in all of punk rock. Just a unique, growly, gritty style all his own.
I told my childhood buddy, that the one who dies later will play this song in the other's funeral. This is so good, and hits deeper than anything else...Thank you so much for this!
This video flipped my mind… that’s literally the neighborhood I grew up in. Crap ass apartments on Sharmon Palms Ln. I ate at that Taco Bravo and worked at the Sunnyoaks Shell station before it burnt. Damn I miss Palermo’s pizza
I saw Lars at the State Theater in St. Petersburg, FL open for Dropkick Murphys. It was a memorable show, Lars filled in for the DKM guitarist cause he had broken his hand. I had so much fun!
I remember backpacking around India in 2009 for 6 months, Wayback before wifi everywhere and Spotify etc., I had downloaded 2 CDs on mp3 to my phone, Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards and Rancid Indestructible, it was literally the only music I heard through all of India. It kept me sane and I wouldn't change it for modern-day traveling with Spotify and all the money in the world. cramped up in Indian trains for 36 hours, no aircon sharing toilet with hundreds of people, but I didn't care I had my music.
2009….I was on TH-cam…I think I had an IPhone….I guess “way back” is a relative term. Since the the new flu hit things have changed but I saw 09’ and 2019 as more or less the same. The world didn’t really change and there still hasn’t been a real NEW wave of underground rock roll. Ah……to be 30 something again…in that grand ol yesteryear of 2009……:)
I wish I could talk to Lars and tell him.Man your songs give me strength to continue living through my darkest hours... I will keep standing proud and tall. Thanks for everything Lars
In these times you have to get busy living or get busy dying. Most of us are old now and most of us would not change a thing and have zero regrets for the lives we lived. First class LaRS
I think you need to bring him into your podcast, Andrew. I Love when you mentioned that you used to study listening to Rancid and Bob Dylan. Your back pages.
"As I got older I got scars to prove my worth More times than others I fell face first in the dirt" such primal, honest and relatable lyrics, So stoked Lars released another album!
@@justsomedudeyouknow8372 at the risk of taking some abuse, im with you on this. i think hes going through some emotional age fucky things, like myself. being an english punk means something completely different to an american punk. i think he wishes he was from millwall or west ham or something. the hooligan thing. to us english, thats not punk. having millions in the bank isnt punk, and it doesnt cure depression. no regrets.
@@martinmcfred6758 I remember a while back there was something online on myspace or a website that was skinheads against lars fredrickson. Super funny! Lots of skins kiss his ass like he's a god or some shit. But then most oi in America is generic crap. All unity and boots and skinhead pride and fighting/drinking at the "pub" and hooligan garbage. Totally weak as hell poser knuckledragger stuff. "i'm a skin and i'm proud of my boots, fighting and drinking are my roots" Lmfao. I been a skin for bout 30 years and i can't stand all that shit.
@@justsomedudeyouknow8372 it was only Cockley rejects that were real hooligan deal,they had football behind them. West ham. They were both boxers and loved it. The actual hooligans were what we called casuals and formed firms a bit like the Essex boys films. They dressed in designer gear and in 80s would fight punks.in the North. Its a pretty sad scene now for the oldies, tend to prefer metal and hard-core.
God Bless you Lars. We saw you n company back in early 2000's at The Pomona fair grounds in Socal. We love you then and we love you still. Keep on rocking in the free world! Oi! From Bridgetown Ca. SGV/USA!
what an idol in the punk and skinhead scene! one of the best singers, guitarists and performers in the scene! I love Lars and his skills and am proud that I also have Danish blood! ☠️🤘🇩🇰
West Side San Jo & Campbell represent! I'm so happy that you still love where you came from. A lot of people act ashamed that they came from here. 408 forever
I've still yet to see a Rancid show ( but saw Op Ivy at Gilman back in the day) , but I've seen Old Firm play and seen Lars walking around at a few shows and the guys is a super humble approachable guy. Considering Rancid's popularity as well as Lars' other projects------ one might expect rock star attitude, but absolutely none!
PUNX, tattoo'd on my knuckles. Not quoting, I literally have that on the knuckles of my right hand. Thank you, Lars. Thank you punk rock. This shit saved my life.
Saw Lars in Bielefeld, Germany with the bastards when Viking came out. It was an absolute killer show. The new stuff is awesome. Nice to hear old classics in a new sound. Cheers from Germany 🇩🇪 to you all.
Lars, for me, always reminds me of the talent, aggressiveness and original timbre of an authentic guitarist. I listened to Rancid for years and I was always struck by the motivation Lars showed and that was key for me.
I remember catching Lars and the Bastards when they opened up Warped Tour one year in Toronto it was sweet, we had a big area to go nuts since most people weren't able to get into the venue for awhile due to long lineups
This song is so strong, a man on top of the world reflecting on how he got there, honoring his crew thats been with him the whole way. I fuckin dig this one man!
last time i saw my best mate Benny before his funeral,he was bouncing at Call The Office in London Ontario,a Lars and the Bastards show... never forget it. must've been at least 15 years ago. thank you,Lars!
Shot out to my old neighborhood and all those crazy Hooligans in Sremska Kamenica-Serbia 🇷🇸 !!!Best time of my life, running those streets , being young and wild.
It is! And the fact that it’s nothing special is amazing ! He’s fucking going to from the guitar to the head none of the stupid pedals and shit he’s a real ass dude. No bullshit
I've still got the first 5 out of the six on disc. I mean, they're all on the Spotify playlist, as well, but it's still nice to look at those disturbingly scratched up copies. Some good memories from those albums.
Lars is a damned legend. Love him and his music which has helped me throughout the years. That pic with him in Last Resort is one of my favourites. Along with the one of him as a little lad.
the music of Lars and Rancid accompanied me throughout my life in good and bad times. Thank you for his Lars and in particular "roots radical" "to have and have not" and "skunx" thank you from a Frenchman
Only Lars can play do that shit. One man, one guitar, and a punk attitude. Always solid, captivating, and a true performer. Kids that's how to rock and show soul. Punk 4eva, punk will never die it gave birth to metal and thrash. ✌️🤘🏴☠️🇦🇺

Punk flag forever is my spirit. Love you all.
I still like matt freemans better
@@buckwheatz666 Yeah, Freeman takes the lead intermittently but man, when he does he sings from the bottom of his soul.
Well Lars is a Skinhead now.
Always thought that too man. Been listening to his growl for decades now.
I told my childhood buddy, that the one who dies later will play this song in the other's funeral.
This is so good, and hits deeper than anything else...Thank you so much for this!
Now in my forties, I listen to punk everyday and share with the youth so that we may never die.
Fuck yes. Lars rockin' always makes the world a better place.
Lars is bringing his Bastards repertoire back to life! We all need that so much man! These are all punk rock classics! Thanx
Some serious Billy Bragg vibes with this version of ‘Skunx’! Mad love Lars!

One voice and one instrument. Nothing else...
Campbell California. I live down the street from that Taco Bravo. Gaslighter Theater shows! Miss those days.
Lars The King of Punk Rock and Oi! Music of our era.
Stomper98💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 thanks from germany
He is so humble. And true to himself.
Lars being Lars. Fuck it lets do this. This guy understands things most people don't.
Lars you are the best 👌 I LOVE YOU SO MUCH 💗 ❤ 💖 💓 💕 💛 💗 ❤ 💖 💓 💕 💛 💗 ❤ 💖 💓 💕 💛 💗 ❤ 💖 💓

So good!
I think you need to bring him into your podcast, Andrew. I Love when you mentioned that you used to study listening to Rancid and Bob Dylan. Your back pages.
I really want him to do a solo version of Brad Logan
instant smile when i saw your top comment, up the punx Andrew!
Why you lie?? That was bad
my source of science and my source of punk rock have collided! what a good day
"As I got older I got scars to prove my worth
More times than others I fell face first in the dirt" such primal, honest and relatable lyrics, So stoked Lars released another album!
All bullsh*t posering. Guy was never from the streets, never fought a day in his life for real, never struggled for anything.

Rocking that Canadian tuxedo, the double denim, if you will
Nice job Lars. Your music is aging in a fine manner just like you. Much respect, Dirty Dave Nasville Tennessee!
Yeah
Good job by you Lars. More love from Nashville.
Sully
SO... Who else waited and waited for the beat to drop?? Still a great song from a talented musician!!!
Rob's still with you Lars! I think about him at least once a week! I still wear my Rockin' Rob shirt...albeit it's much smaller than it used to be!
damn... this just makes me think of hangin out at the skate park with my old friends... i miss those times
West Side San Jo & Campbell represent! I'm so happy that you still love where you came from. A lot of people act ashamed that they came from here. 408 forever
From a drummers perspective, the arrangement is done. I can hear every beat in his playing! Catchy af\,,/
Lars is one of the coolest personalities I’ve ever met, so real and down to earth. This is one of the reasons I love Rancid and punk rock 🤙🏻😎🤘🏻
I've still yet to see a Rancid show ( but saw Op Ivy at Gilman back in the day) , but I've seen Old Firm play and seen Lars walking around at a few shows and the guys is a super humble approachable guy. Considering Rancid's popularity as well as Lars' other projects------ one might expect rock star attitude, but absolutely none!
PUNX, tattoo'd on my knuckles.
Not quoting, I literally have that on the knuckles of my right hand. Thank you, Lars.
Thank you punk rock.
This shit saved my life.
Thank YOU Lars you're a true hero to myself and so many thousands around the world, never stop. Please.
San Jose reppin...gangster
Saw Lars in Bielefeld, Germany with the bastards when Viking came out. It was an absolute killer show. The new stuff is awesome. Nice to hear old classics in a new sound. Cheers from Germany 🇩🇪 to you all.
@Rancid - Sharmon Palms, Taco Bravo bring back fond memories. Great tribute to Campbell, California.
Fantastic
ne mare yeeee 🥰🙌🏻🙌🏻
Punk save my life 🤟
Ruined mine! But it was a good run, wouldn't trade my wasted life for the world!
Me too...
"Punk rock changed our lives" D Boone
Welcome to the family haha
Punk rock put me on dialysis.
Lars, for me, always reminds me of the talent, aggressiveness and original timbre of an authentic guitarist. I listened to Rancid for years and I was always struck by the motivation Lars showed and that was key for me.
Gone Billy Bragg now .
Like the UK Subs pics at the beginning 😛
Lars I came to wish you a Happy 50 but got stuck in the CraZy Rain. Rock on 🤘🎸 I dig these Tunes !!!
I didn't think a single vocal and electric guitar could sound cool...I was wrong. It makes intimate and highlights the message
Billy Bragg? th-cam.com/video/3SLL5uGBtHE/w-d-xo.html
I remember catching Lars and the Bastards when they opened up Warped Tour one year in Toronto it was sweet, we had a big area to go nuts since most people weren't able to get into the venue for awhile due to long lineups
In Chicago they had a huge crowd and a circle pit going all the way around the sound tent 😂
One thing remains the same after all these years..... That San Jose stadium will never be filled.... Just joking. Good tune!
I love that he went solo. I love Rancid. Love his subtle moves.
offspring
This song is so strong, a man on top of the world reflecting on how he got there, honoring his crew thats been with him the whole way. I fuckin dig this one man!
Cheers man
last time i saw my best mate Benny before his funeral,he was bouncing at Call The Office in London Ontario,a Lars and the Bastards show...
never forget it.
must've been at least 15 years ago.
thank you,Lars!
Just Lars and a guitar - best version ever.
Shot out to my old neighborhood and all those crazy Hooligans in Sremska Kamenica-Serbia 🇷🇸 !!!Best time of my life, running those streets , being young and wild.
Lars is so badass
TACO BRAVO gettin' props!!!!!! 1:03
Punk rock Viking 😎
Yin Love Bredda 🏴
Campbell represented in full!
Am I the only one waiting for the Bass riffs and Drums to kick in?
Oh I loved this song back when it was released on the Lars Frederickson and the bastards album back in 2001(?). Wish he would bring that group back.
His guitar tone is so great
It is! And the fact that it’s nothing special is amazing ! He’s fucking going to from the guitar to the head none of the stupid pedals and shit he’s a real ass dude. No bullshit
Something about Lars voice just hits my soul like no other ✌
only with guitar and your voice make a song with power is an masterpiece! 🤟
awesome Lars
No need of drums or bass. Lars in the simplest way.... sing and play guitar in the middle of a stadium. Perfect!
Brutal
Rock and roll rewind.......luv lost soûl.......#beginning
Iconic.
This takes me back to "Give em the boot"!! That comp changed my life! Thanks Lars!!
I've still got the first 5 out of the six on disc. I mean, they're all on the Spotify playlist, as well, but it's still nice to look at those disturbingly scratched up copies. Some good memories from those albums.
From the ATX, saw his solo at the show in Grand Prarie, and now I know why Lars is the Prince of Punx!!
We love u lars
Lars is a legend...cool video, cool song! Love the Marshall logo transformed into "lars" on the amps 🤘
He used to use one at live shows that was changed from Marshall to arsehole.
The "Lars logo been like that for decades 😉
What a great guitar sound and Lars is one awesome howler too
With Rancid and the Bastards he is fucking great … and on his own he’s killing it too
Stay punky my friends, victory is around the corner. 👊 Keep the faith.
I don't know why it was uploaded twice, but I'm definitely not complaining. Play it again!
Just a man and his guitar, fucking awesome 👍
those picture with the ramones ! true punk will live on forever!
The good ol days. We need Punk Rock back in America.
Lars is a damned legend. Love him and his music which has helped me throughout the years. That pic with him in Last Resort is one of my favourites. Along with the one of him as a little lad.

Street Punk stripped down to its raw roots, one legend and his guitar.
That kicked ass! Who needs a band.
