BIOGRAPHY

In late 2007 we all spent a few weeks together writing in Utah at Unknown Studios. The chemistry has been incredible and this record has come together very organically. All of the songs were written with us all 4 together in the same room. We hung out at Brandens house and when it wasn΄t snowing we would play soccer, skate the ramp, and work on our UK Photobook. Sometimes we΄d just sit back and watch a Johnny Cash or Social Distortion dvd. We enjoyed having an environment where we could just relax and write with no pressure or distractions. Some days the snow would come down so much that it created a real feeling of solitude, bringing us together. Each night when we΄d go out to eat at the local restaurants it was interesting to have us all together out in such a conservative community. It was like Rancid dining with the Osmonds, that was pretty much how it felt.

In early Jan 2008 we started recording the 7th Rancid record with producer Brett Gurewitz (who has produced 4 previous Rancid records). It΄s coming along great and we΄re deep into it at this point still currently tracking. With an expected release in June 2008, we are working hard and very proud of what we΄ve done so far. We will post more info, videos and photos from our writing and recording sessions soon!

See ya in the pit.
