Descendents and Buzzcocks

Formed in 1978 in L.A.'s South Bay, Descendents are punk legends known for their energetic style. Key members include Milo Aukerman and Bill Stevenson. They're celebrated for albums like "Milo Goes to College" and their early unreleased work now on "9th & Walnut."

Buzzcocks, formed in Manchester by Pete Shelley and Howard Devoto, helped shape British punk with energetic pop-punk tunes. Known for songs like "Orgasm Addict" and "What Do I Get?", they released influential albums such as Another Music in a Different Kitchen and Love Bites. Disbanded in 1981, they re-formed in 1989, continuing to tour and release music, including 1993's Trade Test Transmissions. Their punk-pop sound inspired bands like Nirvana. After Shelley's 2018 death, Steve Diggle led the band, releasing Sonics in the Soul in 2022.
