Originally released in 1986, Enjoy! finds Descendents leaning fully into their instincts. While the band had already helped define what would become pop punk, Enjoy! doubled down on short, fast, melody-driven songs, pairing juvenile humor with sharpened songwriting and unmistakable urgency. Tracks like “Hürtin’ Crüe” and “Get the Time” channel irreverence through speed, melody, and tension, while subtle new wave and pop influences, including a punk take on "Wendy" by The Beach Boys, broaden the band’s sound without dulling its edge. Now, 40 years later, Descendents are reclaiming and reissuing Enjoy!, a defining entry in their catalog.

This “Punk Note” edition comes with alternate packaging artwork from designer John Yates (Stealworks). The artwork is a nod to Reid Miles and Francis Wolff, and their amazing work at the Blue Note label. The case-wrapped jacket includes new liner notes by BrooklynVegan senior editor Andrew Sacher.

Transparent magenta color vinyl pressing is limited to 1,000 copies.
Note: Punk Note editions do not include lyric insert from standard package.
