Punk outfit, Rancid, have announced a UK tour this December, with tickets going on sale this Friday 29th June.
One of the cornerstone bands of the '90s punk revival, Rancid's unabashedly classicist sound drew heavily from The Clash's early records, echoing their left-leaning politics and fascination with ska, while adding a bit of post-hardcore crunch. While some critics dismissed Rancid as derivative, others praised their political commitment, surging energy, and undeniable way with a hook.
This is a must-see tour!
