It was released on June 21, 1994, through Epitaph Records[1] and was the band's first album to feature Lars Frederiksen on guitar and vocals.

The album initially achieved little mainstream success, though it appealed to the band's fanbase.

However, the surprise success of punk rock bands such as The Offspring, Green Day and Bad Religion in the mid-1990s brought forth more mainstream interest in Let's Go, and it peaked at number 97 on the Billboard 200.

[6] "Radio" and "Dope Sick Girl", two songs previously included on a 7" vinyl for Fat Wreck Chords, were altered for inclusion on Let's Go.

The album received a rating of four out of five stars, while "Salvation" earned Rancid its first moderate success.
