NEVER DID A POPULAR THING... COULDN'T SELL OUT A TELEPHONE BOOTH... THE PROUD... THE FEW... THE DESCENDENTS With that tongue-in-cheek battle cry, the nerdsome foursome declared their war against mediocrity. Fueled by the omni-ambitious doctrine of ALL (not ALL the band... that comes later the concept, based on the TOTAL EXTENT, the peak of pinnacles) and a series of caffeine binges, the essences of punk and pop were percolated together in a way that has yet to be recreated, though many have died trying. Ranks of sympathetic adolescents, previously excluded from the ferocious world of punk rock, followed the sound. They boldly strapped on their glasses, wiped their noses on their sleeves, and launched into the slam pit chanting the DESCENDENTS' refrain "I'm More...

You should have told me I should have known But now you're gone I'm alone Your mother told me Last night on the phone why'd you do it Now I'm alone I would have helped you I would have done anything I would have taken you with me Or bought you a ring, but Now you're gone and, I'm alone! Who cares? | Reviewer: Reviewer ------ About artist/band Descendents "awsome band but not very popular---none of my friends have ever heard of them :/" Who cares, like what you like, and don't worry about what everyone else thinks. This band is great, and just because they aren't a huge band like Bad Religion, doesn't make them any less talented or fun to listen to. Great Band. Full of Wit! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About artist/band Descendents Descendents have been rockin my world since the 80's. Everyone I knew had their albums or was in search of learning more about them. They prove that brains are the braun in this millineum. I eagerly await a for what's next. Hopefully, Milo will hang up that lab coat once again....What do you guys think, are you game???????? sweet | Reviewer: lexi ------ About the song I Like Food performed by Descendents the descendents pretty much own yer mom. the end.

Silly Girl | Reviewer: Dennis Heckard ------ About the song Silly Girl performed by Descendents My band Undr Society Recently decided to play this song and at first I didnt really Know the song at all or waht it was about i was just tought how to play it and i listened to it a few times and then came on here to make sure i got the words right and i personally find it to be a awesome song about what sseems to be young love and teh word making you change i give it a thumbs up. †DenniS† let's exploit rock n roll to it's fullest potential | Reviewer: barbosa ------ About artist/band Descendents I know they are one of the best of all times. Right up there with Black Flag and Dead Kennedys. Those who have never heard Descendents (and like this kind of music) are truly missing out and need to find a clue. Unfortunately, living in the US requires money. So, if the band members need some, I totally do not blame them for remaining in the scene in order to recoup... maybe some of the millions of bands who currently copy them (and happen to be making a killing) can learn a few things from the real thing. excellent | Reviewer: cox 666 ------ About the song Coolidge performed by Descendents Emotional, still oldskool punk rock, good message, good circle pit off-beat. Excellant one of thier true songs to show growth since 81. Rock on niggas Cool band | Reviewer: RockerLane ------ About artist/band Descendents Yeah, they weren't popular. But I heard here album, "Everything Sux" and it sounds pretty good. There lyrics made me laugh. Fat EP | Reviewer: Rexisfed ------ About the album Fat [EP] performed by Descendents The Descendents' first EP foresaw where they were going with 'Milo Goes To College'. Unfortunately, the EP doesn't have any memorable songs whatsoever, and nowhere near the quality of Milo Goes To College. The songwriting isn't too admirable, either. If you like the Descendents, I'd recommend buying 'Two Things At Once' (Milo Goes To College and Fat EP), but otherwise I wouldn't reccomend it. Track listing 1. My Dad Sucks (:36) 2. Mr. Bass (2:12) 3. I Like Food (:17) 4. Hey Hey (1:33) 5. Weinerschnitzel (:15) 6. Global Probing (1:07) Best Track: Mr. Bass Worst Track: Global Probing Worth Buying: No Score: 2/10 'Merican EP | Reviewer: Rexisfed ------ About the album 'Merican performed by Descendents It's hard to believe the Descedents have lasted this long, and that they came back yet again after 'Everything Sucks' in 1996. This EP is their first release since then. It consists of only 5 songs (The final track contains two songs). The EP opens with 'Nothing With You', an excellent example of just what the Descendents should be, followed by ''Merican', in which the band also succumbs to anti-American songs (along with all the other hundred million artists that have started doing so, even though half of them don't even feel that way). These first two tracks were released again on the band's following studio album 'Cool To Be You'. The three tracks only found on this EP are 'Here With Me', 'I Quit', and 'It's Alive'. All three of which have the classic Descendents sound and will keep your ears dancing. The entire EP is very solid and well done, and Milo's voice stays clear the whole way through. I would not reccomend this EP as a first choice however. Take Milo Goes To College first. Track Listing 1. Nothing With You (2:31) 2. 'Merican (1:51) 3. Here With Me (3:43) 4. I Quit/It's Alive (7:05) Best Track: Nothing With You Worst Track: It's Alive Worth Buying: If a fan of the genre/artist Total score: 8.5/10 Milo Goes To College | Reviewer: Rexisfed ------ About the album Milo Goes to College performed by Descendents The Descendents were way ahead of their time - they started to play pop punk while the Clash was still around, and over 10 years before pop punk became popular in 1994. The band released their first album 'Milo Goes To College' in 1982. At time of the album's release, lead singer Milo Aukerman actually was headed off to college, and so this LP was the only one until three years later. Many consider the album to actually be an EP, considering the fact that it only clocks in at 22 minutes and 32 seconds. However, anything running longer than 20 minutes is actually considered an album or LP. At first listen, it may sound like you wasted your money. Not only is it short, but it's quite bitter sounding in songs such as 'Parents', where Milo sounds like a dying animal. When you first hear that song in particular, you just wish Milo would shut the hell up. However, after you listen to the album through a few times, it'll grow on you, and eventually it'll become a short and sweet 20 minutes that you'll be playing over and over time and time again. You'll then know why the album is considered one of the best punk albums of all time. Track Listing 1. Myage (2:00) 2. I Wanna Be A Bear (:42) 3. I'm Not A Loser (1:28) 4. Parents (1:38) 5. Tonyage (:56) 6. M-16 (:43) 7. I'm Not A Punk (1:04) 8. Catalina (1:46) 9. Suburban Home (1:40) 10. Statue Of Liberty (1:59) 11. Kabuki Girl (1:10) 12. Marriage (1:39) 13. Hope (2:00) 14. Bikeage (2:12) 15. Jean Is Dead (1:33) Best Track: Marriage Worst Track: Parents Worth Buying: Yes Score: 10/10 awsome band | Reviewer: Lisa ------ About artist/band Descendents awsome band but not very popular---none of my friends have ever heard of them :/ You could review the artist/band Descendents in Biography page You could review Descendents album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review Descendents song by clicking the song which you like  Download "Descendents" Music | | ||||||||||
