Well, it all boils down to subjectivity. There are many other punk bands that I, personally, prefer to Descendants such as:
Wire
The Clash
Husker Du
X
Wipers
Minor Threat
Minutemen
Refused
The Jam
Mission of Burma
The Fall
Gang of Four
Dead Kennedy's
Bad Brains
Black Flag

You're absolutely right about the subjectivity since I find most of the bands you listed either boring or practically unlistenable

worst lineup since summer slaughter 2010 ><

You've never heard any of those bands, other than maybe Harm's Way since someone just posted it. I love how you talked about how lame First Blood was earlier in this topic, then asked me for their discography once you actually heard them. rofl

your kidding right?

been jammin this for a few months. so good

im a jets fan today

this.

I'm highly likely of going this year, i'd love to see Line of Scrimmage and Bulldoze. LoS dodged a show in Pittsburgh a while back I had planned on going.
