Rancid – Life Won't Wait (Six 7" Inch Vinyl)
Rancid Vinyl Records
Product Details
Released in 1998, Life Won't Wait found Tim Armstrong, Lars Frederiksen, Matt Freeman, and Branden Steineckert pulling from ska, reggae, and Latin influences alongside their East Bay punk foundation, collaborating with artists including Buju Banton and Hepcat. The result was one of the most genuinely eclectic records to come out of the third-wave punk moment, and it holds up precisely because Rancid were never posturing; they'd absorbed those sounds from the streets of the Bay Area long before it was fashionable.
After three years traveling the world endlessly, the musical diversity that Rancid illustrates in this masterpiece speaks for itself. While it might bring back nostalgic Warped Tour memories for some, for others (including a lot of musicians) "Life Won't Wait" took an eager and anxious group of diehards off-guard and pleasantly surprised them by really drawing from their roots and spilling out this coup of an album in a big way. Adorned in six new sleeves, and remastered for vinyl by Pirates Press, this version - like this album - is something special. 7" pack is bound together with a collectible, printed, faux leather obi-strip and is limited to 1,000 copies.
