Date:
Apr 01, 1979
Summary:
The April 1979 issue of Descenes, a tabloid fanzine that focused on the punk and underground music cultures in the Washington, D.C. area. Descenes editor Howard Wuelfing was an important early participant in the D.C. underground music scene, both as a musician (Slickee Boys, Nurses, Half Japanese) and as a fanzine creator (Descenes, Discords). This issue of Descenes includes an interview with the Washington, D.C. bands Young Turds, Slickee Boys, The Chumps, and No Joe, as well as a "family tree" with information on the earliest days of punk in D.C., which is a supplement to a "family tree" included in the previous issue.
