Rancid / Warner Deal Details
Lars Frederiksen and a spokesperson for Rancid have discussed the details of their label situation with Billboard. The upcoming album will not carry any mention of the Warner Bros name, the spokesperson stated "It's a unique deal that doesn't play by the traditional record biz rules... It's Rancid putting out an album on Hellcat, with the possibility of additional support from [Warner Bros.]."
Epitaph will keep the rights to Rancid's catalog and the Hellcat label is unchanged by this deal. Epitaph will also release the LP version of "Indestructible." Lars commented to Billboard: "We have absolutely no complaints with Hellcat. Yes, we are considering additional support that Warner Bros. might be able to provide, but whatever happens, we're sticking with Brett Gurewitz. All I care about and all I have is my music, my bandmates and my band. We are going to do whatever we need to do to survive." The cover art can be found on Rancid's website.
