Not bad, but not really great
Liveage came about the same way from the same batch of recordings. This CD is pretty good all in all, but for those concerned, I believe Hallraker is made up of stuff recorded on the band's last tour before Milo left the band the first time around. Hallraker contains lots of good material, but it's mostly the marginal stuff that wasn't quite good enough to make it onto Liveage.

All in all, it's an okay album, but if you're going to buy one or the other, this one can't touch the absolutely classic nature of Liveage.


the best descendents ever.
for those of you not familiar with the group, i would strongly recommend starting with this one. this is my favorite descendents album. the stellar set list captures the energy of one of their live performances. my personal favorite track is "good good things," and i can't even bear to listen to the studio version anymore. the song choices, although less "popular" than some of those on liveage, have become my favorites because of this record. buy it now. what are you waiting for?!?.


DESCEND YOURSELF LIVE
DEFINITELY SHARP 'A CRISP FOR A LIVE RECORDING. WHICH RECORD BY THE DesceNdents DOESN'T RATE '5'STARS??? I REALLY CAN'T THINK OF ONE.


their 2 live album
Like "Liveage" this is live Descendents, in ALL their glory. . All the songs kick,and Milo is in top form. The only complaint is that it is soooo short (but thats like all the songs). One day i will get my wish and they will put out an album that is like 3 hours long. . . ah to dream.
