Descendents announce “Run Down Under” Tour, celebrating 30 Years of Everything Sucks

Californian punk rock legends Descendents will be heading down under in June 2026 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the album Everything Sucks.

In 1996, Milo Aukerman made a triumphant return with an album that paid homage to the band’s earlier, more aggressive hardcore sound. This album is a true game-changer, not only for Descendents’ discography but also for the entire Cali-punk rock scene they helped shape. It perfectly captures the urgency and directness that have been the hallmarks of Descendents’ influence since their inception back in 1978.

The tour will be all about the tracks from the album, as well as some of the band’s other awesome songs. Descendents have been a huge part of the punk rock scene for ages, and they’re sure to rock the stage! Tickets are going to sell out super fast, so don’t delay – grab yours ASAP!
