This was the song that inspired me to play bass 20 something years ago. I was just a young kid listening to pop punk music, then this came on some like mix cd I bought off of a friend, it wasn't even the intro or chorus that got me, just how meaty the tone is for the few bars after the initial intro had me hooked. I remember going out, begging my parents to buy me Lets Go, and "Out comes the wolves" and shortly after, I got my first P Bass, and i've been playing your bass lines ever since. Thank you Matt for inspiring me to not only play bass, but to express myself with it.
I'd love anything and everything off the 2000 record. The whole album is so aggressive and hard hitting and it's like the bass is leading the onslaught.
As a kid I had this track on a mix CD and man it had such a spooky sound to me. CD also had a tiger army song so I kind of linked them in my brain lol The bass on this sets the whole tone of the track and is essentially lead bass. No one else does it like you Mr Freeman. Another one of the reasons I picked up a bass!
Killer bass intro setups the entire song perfectly, so catchy ! Got the Radio 7" with the Blitz cover on it when it dropped ( wish Blitz were still around RIP Nidge )
I’m pretty sure I bought Let’s Go in early ‘95 and had my first bass by the end of the year. I don’t believe that’s coincidental. Thanks so much for your creativity. It still inspires me 30 years later.
Thank you, great teacher Matt ! This song is also impactful and cool🎶 I want to play this song but it's too difficult. Matt's bass lines require a lot of technique and grip strength. Matt is truly amazing✨
Hell yeah Matt!!!!Picked up this rad double 10” in San Luis Obispo at Boo Boo Records the 1st weekend it came out,and it still shreds up my old turntable just right 🎼☠️🎉👌
Such a banger! Been a fav' of mine since I heard it for the first time as 14year old teen. The way the bass & guitars interact here still amazes to this day 👌
Love these, Matt! Your lines really shaped me as a musician and that really shaped me as a person. Thank you for everything. Keep these coming, I love watching!
Learned the bass playing along with Let's go and Out come the wolves... i've been in love with your style eversince❤ ciuld you do Hooligans please? Greetings from the Netherlands. I've still got your pick l, you gave me at the Melkweg in the mid 90's❤
I can't get the smile off my face right now. I've always known Rancid's Bass was on another level but this is my first time actually watching it happen. Matt is amazing!!!
Remember only ever learning the intro at the time 😂 People wouldn’t be able to tab lines like that back then when the music came out. That was the days modems still made noises.
I had forgotten about this song and its great lines, then I heard little joe's rendition of it on the Mike and his Uke channel's cover and been practising that intro lick since. Me and my tiny hands are not quite there yet. Great video!
Loving all of the videos! It would be cool to have some that you sing lead/a verse on too. Watching you play the lines while singing would be really impressive
Watching these has been fantastic, cheers. Would love to see more on your signature Squier as it's been my main bass for years. The thing is definitely punching above it's weight for the price I paid.
It would be cool if you did some slowed down tutorials on some of your more complicated bass lines (Detroit, for example). I always love watching musicians break down songs so I can play along and learn them.
Thank you so much for sharing these songs with us! It’s also so inspiring to see you trying to keep up with your own genius bass lines. Because of you i picked up the bass and because of these videos I have a hard time putting it down. Oh also Axiom
Love this song and these videos!! I would love to hear a bit more info about the songs after you play them. How they came together, how you came up with your bass line, etc. Keep up the great work on these!
I started bass because I was charmed about your colourful bass lines. I wonder if you were a painter how all of this lines would be transposed in a painting. All the best! ❤
Amazing line! Could you please tell us the story of how you learned to play bass and what influences do you havee?? 😍😍😍 YOu are the best, thank you so muuch!
This was amazing, like always man! I don't know how interesting it would be for others, but I think a video or as part of a video where you talk about your singing. Like how this style came about and stuff like that. Otherwise, I take whatever I can get from this channel.
These are so goddamn fun to watch. I was thinking, to go along with the history of your gear and style etc., could you maybe do one about your vocal style?
My favorite Rancid song on my favorite Rancid record.
Back down, no back down comin' up...
Another classic bass line, still sounding great 30 years later
of course I'd find you here, you gotta play this one now
The best bass player of all time! 🙌❤️🇨🇦
that smile on your face when you play is awesome. says ecerything!
Thanks Matt. "You Don’t Care Nothin" would be great too

Your Squier P bass was my first real bass, thank you for being you
Who’s all going to the saviors tour just to see rancid?😂
100%
wish I could see green day and rancid in Europe... last time they both came here I couldnt
Yep
I’m going for them and The Linda Linda’s
And SP
please do the Maxwell Murder solo lesson!
You are truly the greatest bassist ever. How about Django from Indestructible?
Please never stop this bass bunker and keep bringing this amazing content! That tone is brilliant!
Rad Matt !
More is more with your Basslines !
Would love to see you play ,Tropical London and we are all waiting to see you come back Down Under ,
LETTSSSS GGOOOOOO!!!! Thanks so much love it my dude!!! You’re having a blast can’t wait to see you guys here in Texas in September!
GAWD I've always loved that walking line in the chorus.
As a kid I had this track on a mix CD and man it had such a spooky sound to me. CD also had a tiger army song so I kind of linked them in my brain lol

Matt. The first note I heard you play had me hooked. 30 years and still kickn it out ❤
Jaded would make my year. Thanks again, you play better than the 88' Oakland A's!
Wow. Unbelievable talent
This video prompted me to listen to this album again, been a little bit too long
Killer bass intro setups the entire song perfectly, so catchy ! Got the Radio 7" with the Blitz cover on it when it dropped ( wish Blitz were still around RIP Nidge )

Was listening to it just few days ago. Again. And again.❤
Please do something in the world today!! Thanks so much for the channel
These videos just get better and better dude! DSG is such a classic!
Please do Axiom!!!
I'd love to see Whirlwind or Olympia WA next
Matts wry little smile and wistful gaze while playing these older tracks are priceless.
So much better to watch this up close than the battleground of the pit - where I usually am watching from!!!
Man, I marked a day and hour in my calendar. Every thursday round 22.00 EET I get some minutes of pure joy! Thank you! ❤
Thank you, great teacher Matt !
This song is also impactful and cool🎶
I want to play this song but it's too difficult. Matt's bass lines require a lot of technique and grip strength.
Matt is truly amazing✨
My big sister got the let's go CD at target like 97. I've always loved this album.
Hell yeah Matt!!!!Picked up this rad double 10” in San Luis Obispo at Boo Boo Records the 1st weekend it came out,and it still shreds up my old turntable just right 🎼☠️🎉👌
Matt, you inspire me. I’m loving these videos, thank you so much for making and sharing these.
Just look how happy this dude is playing his bass after all of these years.
One of my most loved ones!!!!!
Ah no... wait a minute, I have too many favorites!! 😅
OK, so whatever comes next will be a banger!
Such a banger! Been a fav' of mine since I heard it for the first time as 14year old teen. The way the bass & guitars interact here still amazes to this day 👌
Love these, Matt! Your lines really shaped me as a musician and that really shaped me as a person. Thank you for everything. Keep these coming, I love watching!
Fuck yeah!!!! Turn it up and dance everyone!!!!!

Hell yeah
Thank you for everything Matt! Every bassist in here have been inspired by you!
Awesome! So glad we get these videos now. Me 20 years ago would pee my pants.
Now I pee em for other reasons. : (
G.O.A.T!!!!!!!!!
Matt, you’re the best! Such a nostalgic song! Takes me back to smoky, filthy punk shows of the day! Cheers!
Could you do Bad Town by Op Ivy?
Big fan of your work. Saw you guys live at the Washington Square down here in Miami Beach, back in 1993.
Learned the bass playing along with Let's go and Out come the wolves... i've been in love with your style eversince❤ ciuld you do Hooligans please? Greetings from the Netherlands. I've still got your pick l, you gave me at the Melkweg in the mid 90's❤

This is one of the harder songs to learn because of how fast it is, props to you and Lars it’s a great song man
One of my favorite bass lines in a song by Rancid. A seriously bad ass sound
1998 would be cool to see/hear you play
Animosity please!
I can't get the smile off my face right now. I've always known Rancid's Bass was on another level but this is my first time actually watching it happen. Matt is amazing!!!
Dude, pure energy. Cheers
Love watching these!!!
YOU'RE A MACHINE!!! KILLED IT (AS ALWAYS)

Great videos man! I would love to see Crane Fist. Life won’t wait is one of my favorite albums ever
I love that you're doing this! Would really like to see more songs from ...And Out Come the Wolves. Also, "Black Lung."
Love these vids. There is no wasted movement in your playing, seems really efficient.
Watching these has been fantastic, cheers. Would love to see more on your signature Squier as it's been my main bass for years. The thing is definitely punching above it's weight for the price I paid.

Love it - was playing that album only this morning and was then looking to see if you’d done a Bass Bunker on this tune. Love that intro.
Sos el mejor de todos!!! Abrazo grande ❤️
Great video again thanks Matt
Nice!!! I would love to see a playthrough/lesson for Axiom. Thanks as always!
Thank you so much for sharing these songs with us! It’s also so inspiring to see you trying to keep up with your own genius bass lines. Because of you i picked up the bass and because of these videos I have a hard time putting it down. Oh also Axiom
Love this channel so much!
With you guys from the start! Would love to see Gunshot!
Sono riuscito ad incontrarti due volte nella mia vita...sogno realizzato
Fun! Saw you guys in Louisville last year.
incredible song and awesome video matt as always. St Mary or New Orleans would be nice ones for bass
Love this song and these videos!! I would love to hear a bit more info about the songs after you play them. How they came together, how you came up with your bass line, etc. Keep up the great work on these!
Another great video, man!
Sounding good Matt. How about Ghetto box?
Radio! Radio! Radio! Radio! Radio! Radiooioo!
I started bass because I was charmed about your colourful bass lines. I wonder if you were a painter how all of this lines would be transposed in a painting. All the best! ❤
Amazing line! Could you please tell us the story of how you learned to play bass and what influences do you havee?? 😍😍😍 YOu are the best, thank you so muuch!
