The Story

Formed1986OriginUnited StatesGenrehardcore punkLabelFat Wreck ChordsMembersRuss Rankin

Good Riddance is a hardcore punk band from the United States, led by vocalist Russ Rankin. Active since 1986, they’ve been a staple of the Fat Wreck Chords roster, delivering a sound that fuses fast punk rhythms with catchy melodies. Their catalog features notable tracks like “Mother Superior,” showcasing lyrics that tackle everything from political discontent to personal struggles. After disbanding in 2007 following a live farewell album, they reunited in 2012 and continued to produce music, including their 2015 release, "Peace in Our Time," and the 2019 album "Thoughts and Prayers." With a knack for blending urgency and introspection, Good Riddance remains a unique voice in the punk scene.
