In 1981, Scottish band The Exploited were already roaring their slogan, “punk’s not dead!” 36 years later, that seems to be the message of the Californians of Rancid, with their ninth studio album. As early as 2014, with Honor Is All We Know, the band around singer Tim Armstrong and guitarist Lars Frederiksen displayed an unflagging spirit and boasted some inspired compositions. Its alloy of punk rock, rockabilly and ska, Trouble Maker does the same job. Our fifty-something veterans of the American punk revival of the early 1990s, alongside Greenday and Offspring, have filled this 2017 offering with powerful, efficient and rapid songs, which meet the standards of the genre’s canons. Above all, Rancid never fall into cliché or self-parody.
