Rancid bursts into the new year

Start your new year off with a bang, a mosh pit and quite possibly crowd surfing with Bay Area Punk Rock titans Rancid as they take to San Fran's Warfield stage for the second of their new year shows, with 2 Tone Ska revivalists The English Beat and female led Ska-Punk out fit The Interrupters in tow. They'll be playing their riotous third album ...And Out Come The Wolves.

Since single-handedly reviving punk rock in the late 90s and selling 4 million albums to date, the DIY rockers are still in touch with their independent roots and show no signs of slowing down.

If you like your punk with a side order of raw packed-to-the-rafters energy and raucous rebellion, then this show is just the ticket. Rancid know a thing or two about putting on a dive show and their considerable catalogue of punk anthems is filled to the brim with fierce melodies and a passionate, driving intent. Enigmatic frontman Tim Armstrong's voice creaks with a rock 'n roll poetry as he shouts and growls his way through stories from the underbelly of society. What better way to blast your way into 2016?!
