I too voted for 'Milo Goes To College' because ALL 15 songs are great. Though I didn't vote for it, I listened to the side 2 of 'I Don't Want To Grow Up' so, so many times. I'm not a fan of the 2 'reunion' albums, I tried and tried, I just can't get into them.

But everything else from Descendents is great! I like ALL album a lot, I even have it on vinyl, a blue one. I actually got it at the same time when I got Everything Sucks in 1997.The Snakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15942053333949248605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-28436988792778663722011-05-18T05:20:06.683-04:002011-05-18T05:20:06.683-04:00Like others here, I love everything going back to ...Like others here, I love everything going back to the early years. I saw these guys plenty of times - along with ALL - during the 80s. What surprises me is that they continue to blow doors down, and people here didn't vote for the more recent stuff. I think the last Lp is actually their best!<br /><br />Listen again! Great lyrics, great song composition and definitely more HC than the early stuff.<br />They just keep getting better.ShayKMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-41133196025250118842011-05-17T18:48:28.095-04:002011-05-17T18:48:28.095-04:00i voted for Milo Goes to College but after listeni...i voted for Milo Goes to College but after listening to ALL record again after this i might have changed my vote.<br /><br /><br />hope to catch them on their upcomin dates.Nataliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10694121725876390437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-71719058481635661022011-05-17T18:47:07.864-04:002011-05-17T18:47:07.864-04:00In my book, anyone who doesn't vote for "...In my book, anyone who doesn't vote for "Milo Goes to College" just might need their head examined.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-11431541045636931202011-05-17T13:55:18.264-04:002011-05-17T13:55:18.264-04:00I voted for Everything Sucks.

As much as I love Milo Goes To Colege and I Don`t Want To Grow Up (I mean, I like everything from Descendens) these days I listen Everything Sucks more then other Descendens stuff. But, I wonder, why you didn`t put Fat EP as an option for voting? It would be interesting to see what place would Fat EP got.The Snakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15942053333949248605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-82702014664511548712011-05-17T12:43:04.432-04:002011-05-17T12:43:04.432-04:00Wow, can just imagine seeing them at Maxwells or C...Wow, can just imagine seeing them at Maxwells or CB's.

I'm pretty sure Coolidge came on near the end of the video and it rocked so hard and matched the skating perfectly. Mark Gonzales did a kickfip in a ditch during the song and it got me so stoked on the skating and the music.Benjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954345482043771470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-15398608258759140372011-05-17T02:02:35.948-04:002011-05-17T02:02:35.948-04:00Ben Edge the ultimate Mansion Punk!!!!!!Ben Edge the ultimate Mansion Punk!!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-45507875884747698622011-05-17T01:43:56.370-04:002011-05-17T01:43:56.370-04:00My favorite Descendents songs are hands down "...My favorite Descendents songs are hands down "Coolidge" and "Clean Sheets," but I went with Milo Goes To College, because it's good all the way through. <br /><br />I remember having an SST sampler cassette called Godhead in '88, and it had their version of "Clean Sheets" from Liveage on it, which was my introduction to the band. I listened to that one song so much that I wore the tape out. I think that's the only time I've ever done that. <br /><br />Getting into skateboarding, I remember watching that Vision video Pyscho Skate where "Coolidge" is playing, and dudes are riding down grass hills and doing wall rides. When I think of music to skate to, the two songs that immediately come to mind are "Nervous Breakdown" by Black Flag and "Coolidge."Ben Edgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08322170640778424533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-32182715011762221382011-05-16T22:54:35.545-04:002011-05-16T22:54:35.545-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Taf Ssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02069060489946207774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768432211492653817.post-39643761040616046172011-05-16T22:50:07.925-04:002011-05-16T22:50:07.925-04:00Cool post and I love The Descendents, too, but I c...Cool post and I love The Descendents, too, but I can't believe that Everything Sucks got more votes than I Don't Want to Grow Up, my favorite album of theirs. I never got to see them in the '80s, but the impromptu reunion show in '93 at City Gardens when Milo flew in from Wisconsin is still, to this day, one of the best shows I've ever seen.Matt Berlyanthttp://www.bigtakeover.com/author/Matthew+Berlyantnoreply@blogger.com
