1995, Cleveland Ohio - Out Come the Wolves Tour. Back in High School. It was my first punk rock show. I remember that night like it was yesterday. They sounded so good; it changed my life.
Love the walking bass line in the chorus. I used to warm up by combining that bass line with the chorus bass line in face values by the suicide machines. Definitely a fun warm up when sped up double time!
He makes it look so easy... I struggled a lot with all the Rancid Basslines I learnt over the years, but the style, the flow, the tone, the sound.. It is unmatched!! Thank you Matt!! Huge inspiration for me an to a lot of punk bass players all around the world!!
Just to underline how lucky we truly are here. We're not only getting to see a fantastic bassist at work, but also a bass (upclose and in focus) that is effectively retired (from touring at least). Keep 'em coming Matt!
You thanked smashing pumpkins!!!!! dude I freaking love you. You as in rancid and smashing pumpkins my number one favorite bands. Oh Matt you are the freaking best!!!!
Saw your acoustic there on the corner and I thought it'd be nice to see you rock along to one of the tunes you play the big guy. Lady Liberty, Devil's Dance or something from Devil's Brigade would be sick!
What a killer video for me to stumble upon. You write the best bass lines in punk music, period. Hard to express how much your music meant in my teen years in the 90s.
@@iocat I think Olympia, WA and Roots Radical came really close to the #1 spot. These are my two most heard songs by far since I became a fan few years ago
Thanks for this Matt! Lived in Oly for 7 years, met my wife there, and ended up following her to Connecticut. Love her and our kids, but there is a part of me that does wish I was on the highway back to Olympia.
Thanks for making these, Matt, rock on! I love this song, ...And Out Come the Wolves is one of my all-time favorite albums. We have one great live video of it I've seen on youtube, but would still love to see you do a Bass Bunker session on Maxwell Murder!
This record was so influential to me. A culture shock of the world “punk rock” true to my era. Your bass playing inspired me to stick to bass and truly try to learn as much as possible. Thank you 🙏
So cool i've found this channel Matt. I won't blow smoke up your ass but you were a huge inspiration to my bass playing in the 90's, doing punk gigs here in UK,coming up to London seeing you play plus many others so just like to say thank you for being a highlight of my life. Cheers mate 👍
Saw you guys in Charlotte on the tour and the set was so killer. Last time I saw Rancid was at the same place on the Warped Tour way back in like '03. You guys haven't missed a beat!
That song was always my favourite. And since Rancid is my favourite band, I could say this song is my favourite above all songs ever created by anyone anywhere. If you disagree, you´re wrong.
Amazing man! These videos and your inside look at tour are awesome. I don’t even play bass just such a fan of how you guys wreck shop every show! Something in the world that one is such a gem live! See ya in Boston soon hopefully
I'm a huge rancid fan and I love the bass bunker playthroughs, but I am curious on how you come up with the basslines. Maybe a video doing a deeper dive into your writing process would be cool. I'm probably not the only one who would enjoy that lol, but anyway thank you and the rest of rancid for all the great music over the years.
Matt F'N Freeman ! I'm 66 and been listen to you guys for a zillion years . Been to a lot of live shows , one of the best bass players of all times . Raised my son on Rancid . Like the Bunker Sessions , keep it up .
I remember being in the bedroom of my apartment when I first put my copy of Aoctw into my CD player. In a way it really sucks because I was spoiled from such a young age. Never found anything better than rancid.
Great playing as always. And Out Come The Wolves remains one of my favorite albums of all time. Was so happy to see you guys live again in Nashville last month. I get the feeling that this song is one of Rancid's favorites to play live. Is that true? You all have played it every show I've seen.
I bought tickets to a Rancid concert, Green Day just happened to be playing too. Had such a great time at the show, and the Linda Linda’s were awesome! Pumpkins were alright. And I must say, I was impressed with Green Day. They know how to put on an entertaining performance. Another great video! Hope there’s lots to come
Awesome man. That is one of my favorite songs of yours to play. By watching you do it, looks like I got it about 90% accurate. Such a fun song to play. I also really love playing other side as a finally. So much energy in that one. Love ya matt. Keep em coming.
Just tried playing this with my friend this afternoon, and now I see this video. Great stuff, it's a joy to watch you having so much fun playing this awesome number. It's almost 30 years old, can you imagine?
Love these videos, I listened to this album non stop back in 2005, I’m primarily a drummer but I fucking loved the bass on And out Come The Wolves!! I wrote the lyrics, guitar, drums, and bass for a song that, at the time, my 20 year old self just just wanted to write a song for Rancid 😂 Anyway this is not a plug, because I couldn’t care if no one listened to it, its kind of a tribute if anything to Matt and the guys Song is called Where Have You Been, the band is Stop The Lights Thanks for the music Matt 🙌
Thanks Matt for another amazing video hope you had great time on tour hope you can come back to the UK soon Would love to see you play Who Would've Thought ,Cocktails ,Leicester Square or Fall Back Down but i love all of em anyway Cheers
This may be the song I've listened to the most in my life. Your work has helped shape my life on so many levels that it's hard to express. Thanks for everthing, Matt!
Still my #1 album of all time. This album took me from a listen of music to a player of music. Thanks Matt
Exceptional G,C,D chord progression!!!!
Yea that song never gets old, after all these years. Cheers!
One of the absolute favourite albums of all time. Still rocks….
I loved it so much i actually burned it into 2 other cds in case i lose the original.
I love how Matt cant help but smile while playing along to 30 year old songs. Rancid the greatest punk band.
That album was ALL killer and no filler
No he said it was “And Out Come the Wolves”. All Killer No Filler was Sum 41.
@@OkNoBigDealdidn't get the joke
@@OkNoBigDeal 😂
I learned bass by listening to this album and playing along, couldn't have had a better teacher.
Same here brother. Especially Journey to the end, lock step and Old friend
@AntoineGuinard-w2c Yeah, I love playing Old Friend too. Great song. Will have to learn more songs off this iconic album.
"Welcome back to Matt Freeman's bass bucker.. I'm Matt Freeman" professional newscaster at his finest!! 😂😂😂
"The greatest bass player in the world right there... MFF!"
Dude thanks for this whole project. I swear it's a prime example of what the internet was for. Ya know we love ya!
I can't believe Out Come the Wolves is almost 30 years old... doesn't feel possible. I can't imagine what it must feel like for you!

2024 and i still love you all!❤️🔥
What a legend! Major reason I picked up bass when I was a kid.
Probably my favorite rancid song!!
One of my favorite Rancid songs.

My first band used to cover this. Such a fun song to play.
The bass line for the chorus is so fun to play. I’ve covered this song with friends before.
You thanked smashing pumpkins!!!!!

My favorite bassist.
My favourite Rancid track
Thanks for stayin alive Matt...just keep L-I-V-I-N
What a killer video for me to stumble upon. You write the best bass lines in punk music, period. Hard to express how much your music meant in my teen years in the 90s.
This is one of my favourite Rancid bass lines. Love playing along to this one.
Off of one of the most perfect albums made - front to back, all bangers.
Hard to express how much I love this song nevermind how great that bassline is, love listening to it, love playing it. Fucking awesome.
One of the best songs I've heard on my life
Matt definitely giving that Tony Bennett vibe, you can hear the happiness/smile in the bass lines.
This might be my favourite song of the band
If you ever want to torture yourself, try to pick your top 5 rancid songs. I have like 20 songs figuring for a spot on that list!
@@iocat I think Olympia, WA and Roots Radical came really close to the #1 spot. These are my two most heard songs by far since I became a fan few years ago
Gotta play The Bottle one of these days
It makes me happy to live in Olympia every time I hear this song... 🤘🏼... Would be rad to have you guys play Oly
The album that inspired me to be a bass player. Thank you for your work.
The song of my life
Sos mi ídolo Matt....!!!!! Genio...! Mi mentor....!
Thanks for this Matt!
Lived in Oly for 7 years, met my wife there, and ended up following her to Connecticut. Love her and our kids, but there is a part of me that does wish I was on the highway back to Olympia.
It's the water.
@@myopicautisticmetal9035 That's what my belt buckle says.
All time favorite Rancid song! Been waiting for this..... I'm so ready!!!
Thanks for making these, Matt, rock on! I love this song, ...And Out Come the Wolves is one of my all-time favorite albums. We have one great live video of it I've seen on youtube, but would still love to see you do a Bass Bunker session on Maxwell Murder!
One of my all time favorites. This album did something to me. Got it, when it came out. Still listening. Thx.
I never noticed how much that intro sounds like something off the second Clash album.
Thank you for rejuvenating us
Your way of playing and phrasing are just wonderful ♥️.. Thank you so much!!! ❤️
My favorite some to play of all time .
my favorite rancid song.
Love this record so much, and this is possibly my favorite from it
Matt, your my freakin hero. Saw you in Denver front row. Absolute perfection. Thanks for all you do you, inspire me everyday!
One of the best songs on "Out Come the Wolves....". Thanks, Matt!
This record was so influential to me. A culture shock of the world “punk rock” true to my era. Your bass playing inspired me to stick to bass and truly try to learn as much as possible. Thank you 🙏
Thais album is the best!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Saviors tour was great, I was at the Denver show - I hope to see you guys doing an Out come the Wolves 30 year tour next year with Rancid headlining.
This a really cool bass playing, it actually makes the song sound better, pure genius!
Reminding me of my teenage years
Your basslines are fun and creative as hell.
Journey to the end..and maxwell murder interlude solo are my favorite
A god damn genius.
Really glad you chose to do this track. One of my favorites!!
I always wonder "how he plays that" but with this videos I get answers to so many questions. Epic as usual! ❤
Fuck yeah. That was awesome. And I appreciate you. And the rest of the rest band. Thank you for keeping me me going.
This base line is one of more beautiful of your songs!

Glad you're back to the bunker. This is one of the greatest songs ever written. Thanks.
That song was always my favourite. And since Rancid is my favourite band, I could say this song is my favourite above all songs ever created by anyone anywhere. If you disagree, you´re wrong.
You are my all time favorite bass player! I love this album. I am so happy I found this channel.
The tune named after my home. Used to hear this all the time in the nineties because we lived in Oly Wa.
I swear I fnd something new in this song every time I listen to it.
I remember hearing this album when I was 9. Blew me away. Fucking love Rancid
Hell YES!! Keep rockin' it, Matt!
Love this soog ! Love this album 🎶

A perfect song on a perfect album! And to be able to watch you play through it like this is amazing. Thanks for sharing this stuff with us 🙏🙏
One of my favorite songs on And Out Come the Wolves (which says a lot, since the album is incredible from start to finish).
(on my) top 5 or top 3 Rancid songs - I even had my own accoustic version of it!
I'm a huge rancid fan and I love the bass bunker playthroughs, but I am curious on how you come up with the basslines. Maybe a video doing a deeper dive into your writing process would be cool.

This was a favorite back in highschool, got all my friends to start listening to Rancid from playing this record all the time
What a cool bass line. Lyrics are great, solid drums and guitars, but this bass... Matt knocks it our of the park
I bought tickets to a Rancid concert, Green Day just happened to be playing too. Had such a great time at the show, and the Linda Linda’s were awesome! Pumpkins were alright. And I must say, I was impressed with Green Day. They know how to put on an entertaining performance.

Hey Matt, that was awesome, not that you need me to tell you that. Looks like you enjoyed this one too. Thank you!
