Descendents celebrate the demise of the Trump administration on the punk legends’ new song “That’s the Breaks,” the follow-up to their pre-Election Day EP Suffrage.
“Loser. Big time loser. Delusional loser. SORE loser. The time has come. The time is now. Just go, go, GO. I don’t care how. Donald J. Trump, will you please go now!,” singer Milo Aukerman said in a statement, paraphrasing Dr. Seuss. “What’s it gonna take? A gazillion dollars? (Oh wait, you already grifted that from supporters)… A get out of jail free card? (Only if our judicial system totally fails us)… A wooden stake through the heart? Whatever we can do to make you go away, we need to do it. And I don’t mean just leave the White House, I mean crawl back into your hole of hate and live out the rest of your life as a nobody. A loser. Because that’s what you are. Worst. President. Ever.”
Descendents pack a lot of Trump-trashing into “That’s the Breaks”‘s scant 42-second runtime, with Ackerman singing, “Fucking twit / Crawl back into your hole of hate / You asshole Twitter troll / Caught in a lie again / Small mind, small hands, small everything.”
Prior to the politically charged Suffrage — which featured the tracks “Hindsight 2020” and “On You” — the punk act’s last full-length release was 2016’s Hypercaffium Spazzinate.
