	Buzz on the upcoming Rancid album says the band�s returning to straightforward punk-rock. If this song is any indication, the advance word is on-target. Performed at breakneck speed with one-chord power, �It�s Quite Alright� sounds like a standard slam-dance anthem at first. Interest and tension arrive with Tim Armstrong�s phrasing and delivery; his voice sails with calm syncopation over the top of the band�s furious playing. Only at the song�s end -- 85 seconds later -- does he leap into the fray and shout along with the music. Cool.
