    Hi Matt. As a request it would be a delight if you was to explain more of the history of the albums your playing the song from. I think most Rancid fans you find this fascinating. Snippets from behind the scenes as it were. Example Life Won’t Wait, you guys produced the albums yourselves, what was that like, why the change up that became the styles to that particular album etc. thank you 🙏

    Love how you leave your mistakes in and your "let's see if we can pull this off". Reminding me that even the greats aren't perfect helps me when I'm getting frustrated with learning.

    Yes! I always thought this bass line had a Donald Duck Dunn/Blues Brothers vibe. Freeman and Dunn, two of the greats.

    It always amazes me how people are able to remember so many songs, so it's reassuring to see that even Matt Freeman sometimes forgets how some songs go. Appreciate you leaving your mistakes in. As someone who is trying to learn the guitar (25 years after picking up a guitar I still see myself as a beginner) it would be amazing if Lars or Tim would create a Guitar Bunker of their own.Thatd be epic!

    Dear Mr. Freeman
    26 year fan hear saying that every time I hear this song high, drunk, or stone cold sober I get chills. The only good thing to ever come from Covid was Matt’s Bass Bunker. So from a life long fan I want you to know that I really appreciate you. How about some White Knuckle Ride for some true og Rancid fans 🎉

  • @Dying_Breed_Collectors
    @Dying_Breed_Collectors 17 дней назад +3

    I said it on last week’s video and I’ll say it again…
    YES! Please keep up with doing the videos like this where you break it all down. It’s so nice to be able to see what I’ve been doing right and wrong over the last 15+ years and it’s a lot easier to see when you’re doing it part-by-part and explain why you do what you do.

    Not gonna lie, this channel has been the best Thing to happen to RUclips in a long time.
    I'm a bass player myself (as most of the viewers probably are :D) and I get a lot of worthwhile tips from the way you play, this is so awesome.
    The way you're doing this right now is perfect I think. Talk a little bit about what's happening in the song and why you do this and that, and then play along to it.
    This is the absolute pinnacle of everything I ever wanted from a bass-channel!
    So much love and respect for you doing this. Seriously!
    P.s.
    I'd love to see you do
    - antennas
    - GGF
    Or
    - telegraph avenue
    Cheers from Germany! ❤

    Hi Matt, New Orleans is one of my top 10 songs-thanks for that! It would be great if you could make videos discussing the songs and lyrics, like what inspires the music and the writing process. There are a lot of places and people mentioned in the songs, and it would be amazing to learn more about them. I’d really enjoy that. Thanks again! 🤗

    Hi Matt,
    It was super fun watching you play to the records. However, now I feel like its even better with the breakdown at the start of the videos. Two of the reasons I wanted to pick up bass all those years ago was Donald "Duck" Dunn and you. I tend to pick up new tricks to embellish my own playing after watching your videos. Thanks for sharing.

    Mr. Freeman thank you so much. For continually talking to us fans in such a great way, through music! We all appreciate it immensely!! Rancid (OP IV) and Social Distortion was on heavy rotation from 8th grade until I graduated Navy bootcamp. Forgive me but have you done Badtown? Thank you sir, from a US Navy Veteran.

  • @MrJacksonentzulo
    @MrJacksonentzulo 16 дней назад

    'New Orleans' is definitely one of the highlights that stood out like 'St.Mary' 'Backslide' and...showing itself trending towards the Tim Timebomb arrangements.
    Except it sounds something Green Day would've segued into a la 'Nimrod-era, except this reference is only because I think the aforementioned band gave them a motivation after the release of 'American Idiot', which would've been *everywhere during the recording of Let The Dominoes Fall--including Rancid's spell at Skywalker Ranch.
    Most punk rock contemporaries looked instantly dated--and many cases, finished off bands like Blink-182, Good Charlotte etc. for the rest of the decade. People forget that. Rancid did* make a massive change and entered their MKIII line-up with Branden Steineckert...which I think reinvigorated the stylistic approach (fresh) it needed. Gone were the grainy Jesse Fischer / Hellcat familia motifs (well, the album artwork promised gritty punk) and 'New Orleans' promised a more classic approach. It's also a timely nod to Hurricane Katrina and what a gifted songwriter Tim Armstrong is when focused...
    And Matt Freeman playing on it is what makes it timeless. Lars leads the vocals but the acoustic version has Lint singing it in plaintive fashion.

    Hey Matt, I would love a video where you talk about some of the gear you were using to record these records or just general memories of the sessions. Love peeking back behind the curtain. I read in BP magazine you used a Gk 2000rb and Acoustic 320 going at the same time for some of the Life Won't Wait session, curious if that was true because that sounds insane. Also read some forum posts by one of your engineers on that record that you used a Demeter DI + old tube amps + Marshall amp for distortion on LWW and 2000. Ampeg SVT 2 pro on AOCTW I assume? Not sure about 93 and Let's Go.
    The reason I know is I think your tones on the early records sound fucking awesome and I've scoured for info, haha. Some of my favorite bass tones! AOCTW is the reason I play a Jazz Bass and I fell in love with that tone. Thanks for doing these videos and reading some of the comments.

  • @reikenkayzer
    @reikenkayzer 17 дней назад

    This is so great like always. Here's a weird request, but it's of a cover you guys did way back when. Is it possible that you could do a play-along with "Can't Forgive"? Not only is it one of the best covers I've heard, but it guided me toward a great band Embrace, and bought the record because of it.
