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
Guitar Case
All Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lyrics of All's song "Guitar Case" paint a picture of a person who is completely enamored with someone they just met. The singer has a picture of this person in their guitar case, and although they know they may seem hopeless, they still hold onto the possibility of that person calling them. The lyrics express that the singer has been waiting for this person to contact them, fearing that they may be stood up or left behind, yet still hoping and yearning for them to look them up.
The song's lyrics express a sense of longing and desperation for this person's attention, but in a sweet and charming way. The singer believes that this person is a rare and special find, comparing them to a diamond in the rough, lilies from the mud, a needle in a haystack, and one in a million. Finally, despite waiting for this person to contact them, the singer accepts that they both have things to do, but they will always be waiting for that phone call, picturing them in their guitar case.
Overall, the song speaks to the human desire for connection and intimacy, and the natural tendency to hold onto hope and love even in the face of uncertainty.

Guitar riff at 1:00 and 2:33 reminds me of "Patterns" by Devo. I know Tony was a fan (just listen to "Hectic World"). I wonder if it was a coincidence. Anyway, this album holds up really well.
