Rancid - 'Black Derby Jacket' [MUSIC VIDEO]

[@blackflyingfox3365]

Rancid. What can I say? The louder you play their music the better it sounds. I'm blasting this on my 18 inch speaker at 9:00 in the morning. I'm 41 and I've been listening to Rancid since I was 16. Rancid never gets old.

[@benbone2559]

After decades of careful consideration (and my opinion on the matter changing several times), I have decided that this is the best Rancid song.

[@lang13]

From their best album for sure

[@kingdom7777777]

I like how the camera goes to Tim who just directs the attention to Matt

30 years of love Matt is the man. I could listen to his raw voice all day long their is something so amazing and honest in this song. Peace and love to all, someday maybe every will stop hating it is about love, life, success, failure and what we learn along the way i am almost 59 and after all these years this song puts a smile on my face and feeling in my heart " You left in a plane, I left in van" reality of class life Punk is a fashion it is a way of life

[@mattbusby7984]

Fave thing about this band is that there are 3 difference voices and no 2 sound the same. Awesome bunch of vocalists that all have their own unique take on the genre

[@vadermasktruth]

Yeah, you have nothing to fall back on...But damn, Matt, you made it! You have plenty of money and security! I'm a 49 year old hardcore kid-pink rock-skinhead. I love this music and scene. I'm so happy and proud of RANCID! I've been with you guys since the Lookout Recs. 7"! I remember getting it when it came out in Ann Arbor, MI! I fucking loved it--and every album since! RANCID never sold out. "Let's Go" got me through my first detox/rehab--sick, hurting and suicidal due to heroin and alcohol withdrawal that went on for a fucking month--listening to that and CRANBERRIES "Everybody's Doing I" in my three-man room. I spent that month scrounging for change to go buy a rope & use it..."Let's Go!" gave me just a little hope, and slowly but surely I believed I could be happy--I didn't need dope and booze--I got some more hope, confidence, and faith. Listening to that CD almost nightly, sometimes bawling my eyes out for what I did to my family & friends, while not letting my two bunkies see this tough heroin addict crying! I've cried a lot since then, and unfortunately went to treatment twenty-three more times, jail, etc. Bottom line, there's just too much hardcore & punk that I need to discover or stagedive too, fanzines to be read, and life to be lived! (Well, these lyrics could be written by Aaron Cometbus, they're fucking epic & poetic!) I remember all that frivolous drama and shit-talking from the mid 90s, after "Radio" blew up, and then AOCTW (which is on my ten perfect, PERFECT albums! A few CLASH records and MISFITS/SAMHAIN, STRIFE "One Truth", LIFETIME "Background", DANZIG s/t, couple more...BUZZCOCKS "Singles Going Steady" (technically not an album, I guess) some other albums with longevity). Punk rock has intervened in my death of life, many times! You guys made a living and had a blast, an adventure really. Success couldn't have happened to a cooler group of guys!! God bless you and keep going!

[@elduuude]

How I love this song! Crazy how one band can have three such amazing vocalists, with such unique and different voices. This one was the first song where I heard Matt's voice, back when the album was released. I almost fell of my chair the moment he started singing :D Gotta love his basslines. And about that you can find tons and tons of comments on KZbin. But I wanna say: He should definitely sing more as well. Will now listen to "Rejected" next.

Even though the video is basically the band playing while Matt kills it on bass and the mic, the shots of NYC and 50s-60s traffic are really cool and fits this song very well. Rancid

@@theevildrummingsithlord1492 There are several different cities. I can definitely pick out Chicago (where I live) and New York (where I'm from). I don't know the others, but if you see Oakland in there, you're probably right.

This song was the best on that album for my money. Radio Havana was good, but none of them grew up around Cuba. This one is straight from the heart. "Never needed much, I never liked to loom But a gesture can get me from across the room The first night we talked until while the sun caught up Transparent people melting all around us" Damn, you have just never been in love until you and your lover are the "only ones" in loud and populated room. Like Matt's, that one got away from me, too.
