Hey, this is Milo from the Descendants. We just put a record out called Ninth and Walnut.

So check it out. See if you can get one. And right now I'm talking on the vinyl guide.

Yes, Milo. Indeed you are. Hey, everyone. It's Nate. Welcome to episode 291 of the vinyl guide,

the podcast for vinyl record collectors and music nerds. And guess what people, I've got a great one for you today.

Milo Ackerman of Descendants is with us today. And we are celebrating the Descendants' new LP, 9th and Walnut, which is out this week.

This is the Descendant's Lost album featuring the same lineup that wrote and

recorded Milo Goes to College, 14 unreleased songs that were recorded in more recent years

with the original lineup. And I must say, Ninth and Walnut is a phenomenal view into the early

years and what made the descendants a household name.

At least in my household, 9th and Walnut is on your streaming services.

It's on limited light blue colored vinyl and of course classic black.

And yours can be had at Descendantsonline.com from Epitaph Records or simply rock up to your local independent record shop

and politely demand your copy. That's Descendants, 9th and Walnut, out July 23rd.

Now, I must confess to you, Milo Ackerman has always been one of my absolute favorite singers, and I've always wanted him here on the show.

So this week is a big get for me.

Today we talk not only about the new album, but the history of the band, the new Alliance days, the making of Milo goes to college, even talking about science and his perspective on COVID.

You know, some people may not know, Milo holds a PhD in biology, which is the primary reason

he's been in and out of descendants for many years.

So Milo's perspective on COVID is quite relevant.

Plus, he also shares a lot of stories and even gives us a glimpse into what the future

may be for one of the greatest rock bands in history and whether there are future descendants

releases in the works.
