    The reason I have always loved Tim and Rancid was because all his songs have always felt like he was telling me a story. I always needed a story.

    For everyone hating on Tim, he’s a ska-punk guitarist/frontman. He doesnt have to be a good guitarist 90% of the time seeing as its primarily ska/reggae style upstrokes (I play drums, yet even I can do that), and he has Lars Frederiksen and Matt Freeman to back him up. He just has to have his voice and the occasional upstroke and he’s good as gold. Everything he plays guitar in is the same way, From Op. Ivy, Rancid, and the occasional feature w/ The Interrupters, he’s almost always playing some sort of ska riff. The only time he doesn’t is in his Time Timebomv stuff. Everyone hating needs to get over themselves. Even if Tim isn’t the greatest guitarist or singer, he found his niche in the punk world and is now one of the greatest, I bet the same can’t be said for anyone out her dropping hate.

      Brady Robinson actually tim is good guitarist. Watch his early live. He cover most of the songs than lars who back then only knew powerchords. Oh don't forget to watch operation ivy live. He's the only guitarist in that band.

      1) He needs distortion to cover his mistakes. It's fine. Acoustic guitar is a lot less forgiving.
      2) Definitely ska punk.

      I had respect for Bragg until he showed support to remove Southbank (legendary skate spot) in London, because he had a personal interest in the arts centre that wanted to build commercial property there (cafes and restaurants) to fund something else. Thankfully, London collectively told them to fuck off and the spot remains.

    I LOVE Tim's beard... I remember when I first saw the "new Tim" on X-Files, .. It really fits him... Great songwriter, great dude. Rancid has always been a great band... It was just Tim, Matt and Brett on the first album... Yes, they got better when Lars joined, but the first Rancid LP was AMAZING!!! "Holiday Sunrise", "Detroit", "Hyena".... Great songs....

    Nice to hear it as an acoustic version. However, it shows how important Matt Freemans bass play is to the typical Rancid sound.
    In my humble opinion it is the combination of Tim's voice and Matt's Bass that make Rancid sound the way they do.
