Descendents
Comment:
Descendents spent their lives disproving punk stereotypes, making music that embraces such seemingly un-punk concepts as romance, ambition, positivity, and brainpower. They delivered hardcore from its musical prison at the same time, proving to punk purists that it was OK to match catchy melodies to Ramones-regulation [i]ramalama[/i] riffs and mile-a-minute tempos. Through three different decades, that little cartoon geek on the album covers was a symbol of pride for generations of kids who thought they were uncool until they starting following Descendents' punk path, and the stepping stones are all compiled right here. When pop-punk started making big bucks in the '90s, the band never tried to cash in on the scene that they made possible; instead, they just plowed on ahead at their own pace, still following their #1 rule: do your own thing.
