Product Description
CD Description
Along with Black Flag, the Circle Jerks and others, Descendents were founding fathers of California punk, popularising a brand of hardcore that was singularly West Coast--streamlined, with equal amounts of aggression and tuneful popcraft. This was the scene that would cough up chart toppers like Green Day and Rancid 15 years later. From their recording debut in 1979 till their breakup in 1987 and mutation into the equally fierce All, Descendents shot out album after album oftight, concise punk. After a nine-year layoff, the bespectacled Milo and crew have returned with an album as raucous and engrossing as any of their previous outings.
Unlike many of the bands who followed in their footsteps, Descendents add a welcome touch of sardonic humor to their existential rancor, making you laugh along with the bleak narrative of the title tune, even as you empathise with the poor sap whose life is in shreds. Only a mind as deliciously twisted as Milo's could come up with as bizarre a tale as "Eunuch Boy" andmanage to cram the entire lyric into 30 furious seconds. Ultimately it's Descendents' gift for melodic songwriting thatmakes them continually engaging. EVERYTHING SUCKS does everything but live up to its title.
