Descendents
Formed in L. A.'s South Bay in 1978, DESCENDENTS began as
a power trio featuring bassist Tony Lombardo, drummer Bill
Stevenson, and guitarist Frank Navetta (d. 2008). The band recruited
vocalist Milo Aukerman in 1980 and began establishing
themselves as major players in the Southern California Punk
movement. Over the years, the band has sustained a potent
chemistry and shared vision, further cementing them as punk
legends.
In 2002, the original four-piece lineup -- Frank Navetta, Tony
Lombardo, Bill Stevenson, and Milo Aukerman -- got back into
the studio to finally record their first-ever songs. The songs were
written by the band from 1977 through 1980, before recording
the Fat EP (1981) and the Milo Goes to College LP (1982). Put
simply, this is the DESCENDENTS' earliest material, representing
a "lost" pre-MGTC album. Most of these songs have not
been heard--until now.
Every element of DESCENDENTS' genre-creating sound is here:
Stevenson's hyper-caffeinated surf-beats, Lombardo's intrepid
bass, Navetta's crunching attack, Aukerman's impassioned,
infinitely relatable singing--and all those great melodies and
harmonies.
