Descendents are mostly fast punk songs, but this song and another called Sour Grapes have a halfway New Wave vibe mixed in. I thought you’d like it 👍

Here’s that other song by them ⬇️

Sour Grapes

Here’s a couple more just in case you also like it even though it’s less “NewWave”

Clean Sheets (1987)

Cheer (1986)

coolidge (1987)

Hope (1982)

Bikeage (1982)

& here’s two songs from the band “ALL”
It’s the guys from Descendents but with different singer. The singer went to become a scientist and got his masters degree (Not A Joke) but I think these went the direction of the sound you liked ⬇️

ALL - Just Perfect (1988)

ALL - She’s My Ex (1989)

And last here’s ALL doing a great cover of Rebel Yell by Billy Idol!

I often think it’s such a shame cause the guitarist , bass , drummer are the same guys. When they started ALL it was like starting over. If Milo the Descendents singer hadn’t left I bet they’d if been bigger with the way the sound went.
