All first saw singer Dave Smalley in some of the earlier albums such as 'Allroy Sez' and 'Allroy For Prez'. Smalley later gave way to singer Scott Reynolds who appeared on the albums 'Allroy's Revenge', 'Trailblazer', 'Allroy Saves', and 'Percolator'. The 'New Girl, Old Story' album in 1991 saw All credited as TonyALL and featured their old Descendents bandmate Tony Lombardo on vocals.
Once Scott moved on, current singer Chad Price stepped in. Price has spent some time in the studio with All as well on such albums as 'Breaking Things', 'Pummel', 'Mass Nerder', 'Problematic', and the live album 'Live Plus One'.
Although All is mostly made up of members of the Descendents, and most of the songs are written by the same people in both bands, few can deny that ALL has its own distinct sound while still letting the Descendents bleed through."
2) All is an alias of Wolfgang Voigt who specializes in ambient and a concept between M:I:5 and Gas
Guilty
All Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don't even have to tell me
I'm guilty
I feel guilty all the time
I did everything you thought
I only stopped cause I got caught
And I'm guilty
She's leavin' today
There's no other way
No need for me to say what was on my mind
Everything I've done has been a waste of our time
I'm just guilty
I'm guilty
Your going to leave me when you hear this song
I've been lying to you all along
And I'm guilty
I feel guilty all the time
Your innocent and I'm in shame
I don't even remember their names
And I'm guilty
I feel guilty all the time
She's leaving today
There's no other way
To keep her from crying all the time
All the lies are what made it a crime
I'm just guilty
I'm guilty
What's done is done
I don't want to defend myself
This time it's all my fault
You say you've lost all respect
Cause I've gone against everything I've said
I'll probably end up dead and alone
Drove away the coolest girl I've ever known
I'm guilty
I feel guilty all the time
She's leavin today
There's no other way
No need for me to say what was on my mind
Everything I've done has been a waste of our time
I'm just guilty
I'm guilty
I feel guilty
I'm guilty
The song “Guilty” by All is a confession of guilt and remorse from the perspective of someone who has been unfaithful in a relationship. The lyrics are a stark admission of wrongdoing, with the singer acknowledging that they have deceived their partner and caused them pain. The opening lines of the song, “I know I suck already, you don't even have to tell me, I'm guilty, I feel guilty all the time,” sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is fully aware of their actions, and the guilt they feel permeates every aspect of their current emotional state, making them feel guilty all the time.
It becomes even more apparent that the singer has been unfaithful when they sing, “I did everything you thought, I only stopped cause I got caught, and I'm guilty, I feel guilty all the time.” These lines suggest that the singer hadn’t intended to stop their unfaithful behaviour, but only did so when they were caught by their partner. Despite their guilty conscience, they still feel remorse for what they did, and sing, “I'm just guilty, I'm guilty” throughout the song, indicating that they are coming to terms with the weight of their actions.
The song also explores how the singer’s actions have impacted their relationship with their partner, and how difficult it will be to repair the damage they’ve done. The lines “Your innocent and I'm in shame, I don't even remember their names, and I'm guilty, I feel guilty all the time” suggest that the singer has betrayed their partner’s trust, and that the guilt they feel is eating away at them. Ultimately, the song acknowledges that what the singer has done is unforgivable, and that they must bear the responsibility for their actions.

You say you've lost all respect
You have expressed that you no longer have any admiration for me
Cause I've gone against everything I've said
Because I have acted in opposition to my own words
I'll probably end up dead and alone
I will likely perish without companionship
Drove away the coolest girl I've ever known
I caused the departure of the most desirable woman I have ever encountered
I feel guilty
I am filled with guilt
I'm guilty
I am at fault
