Description: #DESCENDENTS #MiloGoesToCollege #SuburbanHome Maybe you’re a grizzled punk lifer who hates the kids. Perhaps you came of a certain age where you use the term ”melodic hardcore” more than “pop punk.” You may be a new listener doing a deep immersion into punk history. If you identify with any of these terms, we know you understand the importance of 'Milo Goes To College', the 1982 debut album from the mighty Descendents. That’s why we corralled frontman Milo Aukerman and drummer Bill Stevenson for an oral history of the legendary release. Indeed, Descendents—frontman Aukerman, drummer Stevenson, guitarist Frank Navetta and bassist Tony Lombardo—crafted an enduring document of American hardcore. Ripe with teen frustration and hatred (“Parents”), hooks to hang from like a nerd suspension artist (“Hope”) and unbridled energy (“Suburban Home”), this album is punk history that shall never lose its shine. You can tell Aukerman and Stevenson how awesome they are, and they still won’t believe you. The duo remember what the songwriting process was all about and how their lives as outsiders and nerds were shaped by band life. One-part history lesson, one-part angst case study and another part sheer WTF-ery, this oral history of Descendents’ mile-marking work will shock and awe you. Make sure to Subscribe!
