0Milo Aukerman Releases Ukulele Project, RebUke
HELLO EVERYONE! I have some good news for this shit-of-a-year: Today, Milo Aukerman (of the Descendents, duh), debuts his politically focused ukulele project, RebUke. It’s a three-song single 45 that examines the current political state of the United States. Milo commented:
“I’ve spent most of my punk rock life avoiding the temptation to write political songs; it always seemed like politics is the obvious go-to subject of punk and thus not of interest to me. Unfortunately, after the 2016 U.S. Presidential election I find myself virtually unable to write songs about anything else.”
These songs were originally written for the next Descendents record, but Aukerman felt the tracks were too time-sensitive and he wanted to release them before the upcoming November 2020 election.
Fans can pre-order the 7” via Fat Wreck Chords here.
