Title: Back to basics
Product review: Gone is the catchy pop and experimentation of And Out Come The Wolves and Life Won't Wait. Though I enjoyed both of those albums greatly, I'm not disappointed to hear the boys revert to the speed, power and volume of their debut album. Rancid 2000 is hard, driving and fast. (I missed track 2 on my first listen). In short, the boys have reverted to their punk ways. And that's not a bad thing. My only complaint is Matt Freeman's singing. It just isn't very good. But that's a small complaint. This is what the Clash should have done after all their experimenting: go back to the start and do it better. Viva punk, viva Rancid.
