Descendents were formed in 1977 as an acoustic duo by Frank Navetta, and David Nolte. Bill Stevenson soon hooked up with the duo as their drummer. At the end of 1977, Nolte became bass player for the Last, The and that group took precendent over David's commitment to to the Descendents, so he was replaced by Tony Lombardo,
although David stuck around briefly to sing with the band. Their first
release (as a trio at the time with Navetta and Lombardo handling
vocals) was the Ride The Wild / It's A Hectic World 7" in the style of melodic garage pop. "Milo Goes to College" is the debut album by the Manhattan Beach, California-based punk rock band Descendents, released in 1982 through "New Alliance Records". Its mix of fast and light hardcore
with melodic punk pop and cheeky love songs led to it being considered one of the
most significant albums of the early 1980s southern California hardcore
punk movement. In fact, the majority of the melodic hardcore / punk bands created in mid 90s decade are influenced by Descendents as well as another few californian bands such as Bad Religion or the classic compilation "American Youth Report" (Various Artists, 1981).

underrated, forgot and received badly Descendents album, which with the pass of the years has got more and more acceptance. Then (1987) the band wanted to play a sort of jazz punk, Black Flag or Blast style, with complicated structures, jazz bass lines and changes of speed. Some kind of music which recently public and press describes as "prog rock" (aka progressive rock + punk). This recording has nothing to do with typical easy pop punk of Descendents style, but said this, we can to discover a little hidden gemm. Recommended for those open minded.
