Re: Descendents

No, not "greatest band ever". But a damn good one.

The originators of "pop punk".

Re: Descendents

All is awesome too.. actually heard of them first but once I heard Two Things.. I was hooked. Only band that whenever I put on one album it instantly puts me in a good mood and makes me want to listen to all their albums-been that way for years.

Re: Descendents

One of my all time favorite bands. I always thought the live records were best.

I actually have a tape of demos from before "Every Sux" came out of about four songs from it but they are sung by Chad Price from All because it was intended to be the next All album.

Re: Descendents

One of my favorites too. I know they've been doing shows recently, hope they play somewhere nearby, I would LOVE to see them again. Anyone know who is playing guitar for them now?

Re: Descendents

Egarton is still playing.. I think he's been the guitarist since the All album for both bands.

They're playing a festival in Toronto on the 16th-that's probably the closest they'll be to Oh for a long time

No, but I like them quite a bit. I didn't realize they were still playing shows.

Re: Descendents

One of my top five bands ever. It pained me not to go see them in Austin last year because the show was the same day as my son's birthday party.

I was actually at one of the shows that they recorded that album at! If you listen closely, you might hear me screaming in the background during one of the songs. Now, does that make me cool, or just really, really OLD?

Re: Descendents

I've only seen All live and would love to see the descendents. Any one hear anything about the documentary "Filmage"? (I was going to post a link for the teaser for the documentary but I'm a lurker and my post count sucks. It's on vimeo if someone else wants to.)
