Descendents “Enjoy” released about 35 years ago, 1986. Restless Records. In about 48 hours, we will be seeing the Descendents onstage in Las Vegas at the Punk Rock Bowling music festival...and it’s been close to 35 years since I’ve seen them perform (I did see ALL in ‘88 I think, and we will see ALL as well this upcoming weekend). Enjoy! was Descendents’ third album and as the cover indicates, it’s stuffed full of toilet humor, substituting the real songs’ names for shit euphemisms and including live studio recordings of their own farts on the title and lead track “Enjoy.” The empty toilet paper holder image on the back cover also gives me anxiety as we head into a music fest weekend (public restrooms are not among my favorite things).

There’s a lot of 80′s metal influence on Enjoy! - it’s pretty heavy at points, like on "Hürtin' Crüe" and "Days Are Blood.” But there’s also the punk-pop sound that Descendents were more well-known for, "Get the Time" is a good example. They even cover a Beach Boys song - “Wendy” originally from 1964. I never was a big Descendents fan but I am looking forward to seeing them play after so many years.

The Wipers - Over the Edge (from Over the Edge) Flashback Friday - The Wipers! Yes, 1983, from Portland, OR. Believe it. Long before Seattle and Nirvana there were The Wipers. Cobain listed it as one of his top 50 albums of all time. You can definitely hear the influence. Great PNW punk. Dig it!
