All these bands deserve credit but none more than Offspring, The Offspring have done it all, and decades later they are still going strong, They Have so many hit singles and they always respected their huge fanbase which changed over the years but no one can deny how catchy their songs are and how powerful their messeges are.

The Descendents are a punk rock band formed in 1977 in Manhattan Beach, California by guitarist Frank Navetta, bassist Tony Lombardo and drummer Bill Stevenson.
