Descendents
Hypercaffium Spazzinate
On their first album in 12 years, vocalist Milo Aukerman, drummer Bill Stevenson, guitarist Stephen Egerton, and bassist Karl Alvarez channel an energy just as raw and jittery as in their earliest days - a time when the band was driven by the equally mighty forces of "rejection, food, coffee, girls, fishing, and food." Born from the all-for-one spirit thats forever fueled the band, 'Hypercaffium Spazzinate' returns to the frenetically catchy sound that launched a generation of pop-minded punk acts and continues to widen the Descendents' following around the world. The band's first Epitaph Records release since 1996's 'Everything Sucks', 'Hypercaffium Spazzinate' began taking shape soon after the Descendents surfaced from extended hiatus for a series of gigs in 2010. With Milo now living in Delaware, Karl and Bill in Colorado, and Stephen in Oklahoma, the album came to life over a three-year period in which the band sent tracks back and forth and occasionally met up in Karl and Bill's adopted hometown of Fort Collins. With 'Hypercaffium Spazzinate' featuring the classic Milo cartoon as its cover art - this time, hes got his head affixed to a lab flask in an attempt to "synthesize some bonus caffeine," as Milo explains--the album finds the band both honouring their past and living fully in the moment. CD - Standard 16 Track CD. CD+ - Deluxe Digipack with Slipcase and 5 bonus Tracks. 21 Tracks in Total. LP - 180 Gram Black Vinyl.
