Editorial Reviews

A ready-made punk classic that'll take its place beside "And Out Come The Wolves" as a touchstone of the genre. The new songs show a lyrical depth perhaps best shown in two tracks that center the album "Civilian Ways" and "The Bravest Kids". Punk has often seen the world as "us vs. them", but with these songs - a sensitive portrait of a returning serviceman and a loving tribute to those who serve - Rancid show an empathy for working Americans that recalls Springsteen or Petty. Formats include regular CD, double LP, and expanded version. Expanded version includes: Disc 1 The Regular CD, Disc 2 Let The Dominoes Fall Acoustic CD, Disc 3 The Making Of the Seventh Record DVD, 3 foldout posters, Pick card (plastic card containing four guitar picks). Produced once again by Brett Gurewitz (Bad Religion, Pennywise, NOFX).

5.0 out of 5 stars ...And out comes the solid record, June 3, 2009

Huge rancid fan for years now. Ive seen em a few times and this record is awesome. There is soo much diversity on it. I ordered this from machete and for 25 bux I got the 3 disc set, t shirt, bandana, guitar picks, the 3 posters, a sticker, and a roots radicals cd single....WOW. Any other band this set would of been 50 bux or something.

BTW, Rancid acoustic sends chills down my spine... :-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Diveski-Punk, June 2, 2009

One of the great rock albums (let alone punk)of all time - keeping Rancid as one of the true greats of punk along with The Clash. The wait has been well worth it, with none of the staleness often associated with bands that have been around (too) long - Rancid has managed to keep the energy to create an album that probably surpasses "wolves", "Indestructible" and "life Won't Wait" - I'll decide for sure when I'm as familiar with the songs as I am with previous cds. Stand out tracks (could be just about any) but i love 'Civilian Ways', 'Disconnected' and 'Liberty and Freedom'. The acoustic cd is a great extra.

In this day and age punk bands are becoming a joke. They are either trying too hard to be over the top experimental and "mature" or are releasing stagnant, half baked albums reminiscent of how hair metal and 80's rockers were trying to get by in the 90's.

I had been anticipating this album since Rancid announced it back around 2005 or so? im not so sure of the date, but anyways, i went into this album with 2009 vision on. that means, i didn't expect And out come the wolves, let's go, life wont wait or the 2000 album. I just hoped that they wouldn't pull an AFI or Green day on us and bring in all the synthesizers, cheesy lyrics, and melodramatic vocals.

I think that rancid in 2009 is still in their element. yes, they have a new drummer, and yes, they have a bit more of a polished production, and yes, they have some recycled themes and lyrics. That does not mean that this record is bad in any way whatsoever.

the album to me sounds like a mix of Tim's solo album, indestructible, out come the wovles which is not bad. the lyrics are well placed and catchy for the most part. they aren't old, washed up, 1995 will live on forever!, yet they aren't trying to appeal to 13 year olds. it is simply Rancid being Rancid. i can especially appreciate what they were trying to say with "Last One To Die."

The two acoustic songs are well placed and don't hurt the album. not to mention the entire acoustic cd. im not usually a fan of acoustic songs, but the 12 track acoustic cd is great. the dvd, posters and guitar picks are juct icing on the cake.

my only minor complaint was that there are not enough of Lars' lead vocals on this. however, we get some good Matt vocals, so it evens out with me.

all in all, i gave it a 5 because of the awesome package deal with the 3 discs, 3 posters, and guitar picks. the album itself is a 4. definately not as good as their 90's material, but it is a great album in their discography. i might say that it is a tad better than indestructible and a lot better that some of those recent side project albums.
