Official Blink 182 Thread

[Surtr]

That song isn't great but it's ok.

Not worth changing your music to it though.

[10571z]

Ahh Tom Delonge where did he loose his way? Do you actually think he knows how unpopular AVA is. I mean when AVA came from melbourne they played at festival hall where blink 182 played. The thing is it didnt sell out and still had mosh tickets avaible on the night. But when blink 182 came around it sold out in 10 minutes i think. It must give him some idea of the fans thoughts

[Sturmabteilung]

yeah how gay

[Sturmabteilung]

100% schwul

I was gonna go to that AVA show, but then I saw the ticket price, I can't remeber what it was, but I remeber thinking it wasn't worth it.
I HAD TICKETS TO THAT SOLD OUT BLINK CONCERT, BUT MY ****IN' GRANDMA HAD TO HAVE HER FUNERAL THAT NIGHT DIDN'T SHE!?
That's so disrespectful... but c'mon, blink!

[I AM A TROJAN VIRUS LOL]

my favorite song is still shut up

[MattSharpIsCool]

bad brains lol

i'll give it another listen later.

for most AVA songs it's taken a few listens to get into it.

Ha oops. Oh well.

I HAD TICKETS TO THAT SOLD OUT BLINK CONCERT, BUT MY ****IN' GRANDMA HAD TO HAVE HER FUNERAL THAT NIGHT DIDN'T SHE!?
That's so disrespectful... but c'mon, blink!

Holy **** you are going to burn in hell for all of eternity. That was the most awful thing I have ever heard a human being say (type).

[Fire Away]

I didn't even get invited to my Grandmother's funeral. True story.

[poo-poo-pee-pee]

Just so you know, I'm glad I went to the funeral, and I loved my grandmama, but it was just a major inconvinience that it was on the same night as the blink show, which I just happened to have tickets for, haha.

Anyways...
Woo, BLINK!
Woo, (+44)!
Woo, AVA...

[10571z]

It's really wierd with age im really starting to like the "newest" blink album alot and starting to get over there old stuff. At the time i was sorta upset that they didnt do another quick fun pop punk album but now i realize how good there newest album actually is.

[Oz Rembrandt]

+44 are pretty cool, but I can't get into AVA. Tom's voice annoyed me with Blink, but at least Mark was there...

(+44) on Letterman performing "When Your Heart Stops Beating". Travis is a drumming machine!

[Bad Blood]

haha what a legend.

[Untitled]

That was a pretty sweet proformance.

Whats going on with travis? does he had a snare hooked up to a foot pedal? its how it sounds.

[chumpradio]

I think it's an electric sample of a snare, and when he presses a foot trigger, it makes the recorded snare sound.
That's what I'm guessing anyway.

[Untitled]

Yeah.

he does something with his foot to make a snare noise.

I wanna see them live now!

I hope they play Manchester academy, i mean seeing the hoppus in there would own SO hard, and the chances of meeting him are very high after wards.

But, itll be the Apollo i bet :(

[chumpradio]

Aye. I hate the Apollo, the only proper place in Manchester I like is the Academy. The MEN is only good for bands who suit giant arenas, like the Foo Fighters.

[Untitled]

Aye. I hate the Apollo, the only proper place in Manchester I like is the Academy. The MEN is only good for bands who suit giant arenas, like the Foo Fighters.

Foo Fighters, Muse, Green day, all did great in the MEN.

(well, i saw foo's at the cricket ground and owned it, so they would the MEN)

But otherwise, i agree.

Someone upload the +44 album for me, please? <3

definitely, thats a really good performance. i was curious as to how travis' setup works with only one arm. i heard mark and travis on LoveLine and travis was explaining, it but now that i can visualize it.....

really cool.

[MattSharpIsCool]

I need to go get my tickets before they're all gone.

Which could very easily be the case, already.

[bottlerocket]

Thanks for uploading it for me. :D

/enjoying it now

[10571z]

Travis simply has a bass drum pedal with a snick on it hitting a snare someone told me. But that really is an amazing effort he did congrats

[The Chemist]

a snick, eh?

it's a new instrument i suppose

[Surtr]

a snick, eh?

it's a new instrument i suppose

Haha.

Yeah, that's all it is, it's not even slightly complicated.

[Virus278]

Omg, Tom’s new song is one of the best songs I’ve ever heard!…


The new song really sux. Tom said it would be really great and even though he always says stuff like that I believed him because he said that he was serious this time. I mean, it was just like every song on the album. He came up with some electronic tune, repeated it about 1000 times, and then he threw in some vocals just for the sake of having vocals. The only difference between this song and the songs on the album is that this song is like 8 minutes long. I don’t know where the quote is but didn’t he say something like it had like 3 different parts that “took u up and down” or something like that? 3 parts: 1.Four minutes of the same electronic pattern 2.Chanting like a retard 3.Throwing in some decent lyrics. I guess he just thought this song was really epic just because he made this one 8 minutes long.


- ooh, look what I found:


Atom Willard‘s blog from February 2006:

“Today, I walked into to Tom’s studio to talk to him about the new album but when I got there he was just standing there with his eyes closed flapping his arms up and down really slowly while humming. I called his name a couple of times to get his attention and finally he took notice of me. I told him that I needed to talk to him about the new album but he told me to hold on because he had to get something. I waited for a couple of minutes and finally he came back carrying 2 toy laser guns and wearing one of those fighter pilot jackets. He handed me one of the guns and told me to make believe that we were exploring a dangerous alien planet in the year 3263. I told him to stop messing around, that I really needed to talk to him. Tom just stared at me and after about 5 seconds he lifted his gun and started shooting it at me. I grabbed the gun from him and said very forcefully that I REALLY needed to talk to him. Tom just started to stare at me again looking deeply offended. Then, Tom started to stomp his feet up and down while twirling his arms like a windmill and speaking very loudly in some weird language: GLEEP ORG GLOP TOOS BACH (I later found out that this was a language Tom was making up…(he never finished it)). I finally became really fed up so I just walked out of his studio. As I walked down the hall I could hear him continuing to stomp and yell…

- at this rate I don’t think we’ll ever get the album finished”


EDIT: I just listened to the song again and it’s not that bad. It’s actually pretty catchy and uplifting. Tom just made it out to be really epic but it was just another one of his really simplistic formats so it kind of let me down and annoyed me.

Thanks for uploading it for me.

/enjoying it now

Nothing new learned here. Tom is an retarted alien (With a flanger obsesion) , we've already figured this out since the start of AVA.

[Triangle]

Could you post the uploaded link please?

[bottlerocket]

Hahahaha, Tom's a crack head!

[Surtr]

I have no idea whether to believe that or not. Because it's so completely true, that it can't be true.

[Kif]

Tom must have been smoking something when he was writing and recording WDNTW.

[bottlerocket]

I'm telling you; Tom smokes rocks.

[Surtr]

Tom doesn't smoke rocks, there are no rocks on the planet he comes from.

He smokes like..Dongtiddalydonglockbiggajungs (Proper pronounciation: Dong-tiddaly-dong-lock-bigga-jungs)

[Virus278]

Could you post the uploaded link please?

lmao, it's not a real blog. I just made it up because Tom's become such a whaco lol.

[Untitled]

I beleaved it though.

Toms just a **** now, damn him, he used to be slightly cool.

It started to go downhill when he sold out fender for a Gibson.

His fender was so cool. It just looked ace, and i think it had a better tone.

[Ross]

Fender beats the hell out of Gibson, hands down. Strats are so sexy, and Teles are cool as hell.

Plus the jazz bass makes me cream. Yummy yum.

lol it would be hilarious if it were true tho. So when did he switch from fender to gibson?

[10571z]

Theres no better guitar between fender and gibson.It's all Personal opinion.. Mine is fender as i hate the gibson basses

[British Kid]

yeah, gibson basses do suck in all honesty, but their guitars are nice, as well as their acoustic stuff.

i'm a fan of both DeLonge's fender sig and gibson sig. they're both nice.

[Bad Blood]

i hate toms gibson

i do like gibson guitars though

[Surtr]

I'm a major Gibson hater.

But I'm also a major Fender hater lol.

Tbh I hate guitars and music completely.

(I lied about the last one..<_<)

[Untitled]

He swiched to gibson when s/t came out, when he started to become a knob.

[16 Nipples]

AvA's new song has grown on me alot. When I first heard it I was like 'Aww **** its over the top, long and boring'. But when I played it more and more it turns into a ****in rad song. The intro is massive. Play it with the volume full, it actually does feel epic. One of the best AvA songs imo

[Oz Rembrandt]

He swiched to gibson when s/t came out, when he started to become a knob.

And Billie Joe went from Strat to Les Paul just before American Idiot... :eek:

Connection?

Uh Ohhhh.

I mean, Hoppus has stuck with Fender, and (+44) own.

And Dan Andinero or however you spell it, uses Fenders, and Alk3 own. I cant remember what Matt uses.

And Chris wolstenholme started to use fenders, and now muse are the best they have ever been (well in terms of live proformances)

OMG!

GIBSON IS THE DEVIL.

i think so....

gibson wants a monopoly on pop-punk as we know it....:eek:

but in all actuality.... i don't care.

in my book:

strats = good
ES-335s (what tom's new sig is) = good
Les Paul Juniors = good

they're all decent instruments.

Toms sig is the TD-335, i beleave. They changed the ES to TD, for Thomas dickius.

[Ross]

Hmm. Preferring Fender to Gibson didn't stop me buying an Explorer :p

Gibson make wicked guitars, but personally I'm a Fender man. It's all personal feel.

Billie Joe's strat looked wicked though, suited him and the music so well.

[bottlerocket]

So I saw +44 last night. They were really, really good.

Someone dressed in a banana suit and, while on stage, Mark said, "Wow. That's old school. I like that. I miss that."

It was sad. :(

But yeah, it was a good show. Mark sounded a lot better than I thought he would, to be honest, though, so good for him!

Travis was drumming with one hand but was awesome as usual.

[poo-poo-pee-pee]

You gotta love Mark...

Lucky you Gav.

A popular, yet shitty magzine here (Kerrang for all the Brits) gave When Your Heart Stops Beating a 2 out of 5 rating.

Srsly wtf

[Oz Rembrandt]

Gibson basses are pretty horrible tbh. I play Yamaha bases, but the electronics always seem a little off for me. I'm investing in a Fender J/P hybrid after christmas hopefully.

I love Mark's signiture bass, but I doubt it'd give me the sound I want.

Fender Aerodyne i showed you:thumb:

[chumpradio]

Anyone heard Christmas Vacation?
It's really different to the rest of their stuff, but I don't really like it at all. The lyrics are terrible, I'm hoping this is a cover, just because I am saddened if Mark wrote this.

EDIT: Turns out it's a Descendents cover. Terrible lyrics, I'm glad this isn't something by (+44).

[10571z]

Wow. I just had a really wierd dream about AvA and Plus-44 and it makes alot of sense. I was at a factory where they made those really nice buns with cream and jam and choclate. And i head someone say Tom Delonge fan's will eat up anthing he does. And like Tom delonge was sitting above this big bucket thing with a huge smile shitting in the mixture of the food but the food still came out perfect but people were eating it... While mark and trav just overlooked as there machine made normal nice ones. It was really wierd but I seriously dreamed about this.

[Bad Blood]

ok thats retarded

Did you take your medication before you went to bed?

[10571z]

Hhahaha.... It think cause im so annoyed at how much AVA suck but there still going around the world playing huge gigs.. And Tom D thinks he is some sort of god's..

[MattSharpIsCool]

You really really need to lay off of AVA. We all know how much you hate them. Please refrain from mentioning the fact in every single post you make.

I have come to a conclusion on Plus 44's album. If you listen to it too often, like daily, it can start to drag like most pop punk records. But if you give it a rest every now and then, it is a very good CD.

[Virus278]

Weatherman is a wicked song too, a grow'er for sure.

I love that song.

Also, really sorry for this off topic comment but I'm hearing a lot about the band Boy Kill Boy. Believe it or not Iv'e never even heard this band before. What genre are they? punk? I tried searching for them but I couldn't find them

[MattSharpIsCool]

The distorted bass in Weatherman is awesome.

I noticed there are more than a couple fairly weak verses on the Plus 44 album, but they are usually followed by an amazing chorus. Some would say Weatherman is a decent example of this.

Little Death could also be in that category, although the verses are swell enough in that song. My favorite part of the entire CD just might be the chorus for that song.

Yeh both are good songs. But im yet to find anything amazing on the plus 44. Its a strong album but there really isnt any classics on there like "whats my age again" "dammit"

Fender basses are amazing with Ibanez probably coming in second.

I really enjoy the P44 album. I've listened to it a few times, and it's growing on me.

[MattSharpIsCool]

Fender makes the best basses. Maybe followed by the Musicman.

[10571z]

Fender makes the best basses. Maybe followed by the Musicman.

yeh have to agree... I love the look of the fender which really is what i look for mainly.. Musicman's dont look as good but are insane tone :)

[Oz Rembrandt]

Musicman have a great tone... but thats pretty much the only sound they do. I like a bit of warmth sometimes. Yamaha do good basses, but they have electronics flaws so much.

[Untitled]

I love the look of 'rays.

Nothing beats the look of a Jazz though.

I want Fodera to make it, obviously.

[British Kid]

I want Fodera to make it, obviously.
ah ok.

you didn't say fodera, so i figured you meant the luthier was undecided.

[bottlerocket]

Eh, I'd probably ask some little known luthier like JP to make it for me. Save money that way. It may not be THE HIGHEST QUALITY EVER but it would be crafted with care for the instrument rather than more care for the paycheck than the instrument, you know?

[Ross]

My bass is red with stickers.

I think Vince may be uploading some stuff for me, though...

[Oz Rembrandt]

Well, I see what he uploads first. Check out All too, they's good. I prefer 'em to the Descendents.

[Neoteric]

Anthem is such a kickass song.

[Ross]

Pt.II is better ;)

This man has a Refused username, and this is the 2nd thread I'll have commented on it in. I might have to stfu now.

Oz, get me some All.

[Neoteric]

Hmm... I haven't heard part two in ages so I don't remember it. I'll d/l it.

[bottlerocket]

Anthem and Anthem Pt. II are both amazing songs but they deal with different aspects of growing up. Anthem 1 is about the social aspect; the parties, the parents telling you what to do, your inability to be totally independent but your strong desire to, etc.

I'LL PACK MY BAGS I SWEAR I'LL RUN
WISH MY FRIENDS WERE 21

Anthem Pt. II is more about the overall social place of teenagers. I mean, we're old enough to think for ourselves but they're supposedly not intelligent enough to vote or do things on their own...because all teens are troublemakers, right?

SIGNS THAT CAUTION
SIXTEEN'S UNSAFE

Oz: If you could upload Everything Sucks, I'd love you...not that I already don't.

<3

And yeah, All is pretty sweet but, alas, I'm lacking songs...

They play "I Wont Be Home For Christmas" in the store my sister works at.

Ah, let me look through my 2038750239857 files first haha.

[B]

I have Blink's discography too, except I actually own all the albums.

I used to have all the rarity songs but not anymore. tbh most of them suck anyways.

[MattSharpIsCool]

I only actually own TOYPAJ and Untitled, and I burned Dude Ranch.

But I've got pretty much every song of theirs on my computer.

[DJ Ducksauce]

I bought Cheshire, Dude Ranch, Enema, TOYPAJ, and S/T.

I lost Enema, TOYPAJ, and S/T on a school trip though. :(




htxp://www.megaupload.com/?d=FQKBR14T

Rarities and such.

I think some stuff is on there twice.

[bottlerocket]

I bought Dude Ranch sometime in 1997.

Been a fan since. My older cousin got me into them.

I bought all their albums, except Flyswatter (downloaded).

I bought Chesire Cat in like 1998, after I realized Dude Ranch wasn't their first. Then, the rest of the albums, I bought them as soon as they came out.

[form]

i bought s/t, dude ranch, and chesshire cat

dr and cc cost $42 together

i was dumb

i didnt know about internets musics then, but i still regret all the 50 other cds i bought :(

[poo-poo-pee-pee]

I've got all the CD's, and I've downloaded all the 'rareties'. :D

[10571z]

Yeh same's i have all the cd's... even mark tom and travis show :)!!!.. oh and ive downloaded all the rare songs.

[bottlerocket]

As of right now, I have 232 blink songs.

I'm going to upload Buddha, too, once I get it from my house, and then I'm pretty sure I'll have the complete blink discog. :D!

I could've got it for you. I basically have blink's discog. I'm only missing a few songs they did on compilations and stuff, like "I'll Be Home for Christmas" and songs like that.

[Oz Rembrandt]

I bought Dude Ranch, Enema and TOYPAJ... proud too, all good albums.

[turk]

I'm new to the forum but glad to see their is a Blink thread. Is the band officially broken up or are they taking a break to focus on solo projects?

[Bad Blood]

broken up

there were rumours they were gonna get back together for a one time only thing.

but mark and travis hate tom

tom hates mark and travis

[B]

They're broken up.

Done.

[Neoteric]

Their time had came and passed, self-titled wasn't the Blink that I liked.

[bottlerocket]

In fact, any chance you could get it for me? The person I was downloading off of on slsk is taking too long to come back on.

Yeah, .raring and uploading it now.

Yeah, .raring and uploading it now.Thanks a lot Gav (that is your name right?) :)

The only tracks I remember from Take Off Your Pants and Jacket is Anthem Pt. 2, Online Songs and the singles.

Reckless Abandon is a great song.

[Neoteric]

Yeah, it's an awesome album.

Reckless Abandon is a great song.I'd probably remember if I heard it.

Oh yeah and Happy Holidays, You Bastard is another one I remember. Such a nice, polite song.

THIS IS GONNA STOP THEM
NOTHING TO
HOLD ON TO
WE USE THIS SONG
TO LEAD YOU ON
AND BREAK THE TRUTH
WITH MORE BAD NEWS
HE LEFT A SCAR SIZE EXTRA LARGE

[Neoteric]

I'm in a Blink mood now :)

Enema of the State playing while we speak (err... type)

Going Away To College is on right now, I forgot how good the song is.

[bottlerocket]

I Haven't Been This Scared
In A Long Time
And I'm So Unprepared
So Here's Your Valentine
Bouquet Of Clumsy Words
A Simple Melody
This World's An Ugly Place
But You're So Beautiful To Me

How's Take Off Your Pants and Jacket coming along? Take as much time as you need as it isn't really that urgent. If you want, when you're done uploading it, you can just send me the link to blackwaterpark.derek@gmail.com or I could just get it off the Daily Upload.

[Neoteric]

Thanks Gav.

Though I thought posting albums on the forums was forbidden? Oh well, I don't mind :)

[B]

Yo, B.

Not a lot. Chillin', enjoying City of Caterpillar. You?

um not much

lyndsay diaries and soon to be CoC now that you mentioned them

fiending for a smoke or a blunt or something

usual.

[Neoteric]

City of Caterpillar hmm... are they similar to CTTS?

[bottlerocket]

Thanks Gav.

Though I thought posting albums on the forums was forbidden? Oh well, I don't mind :)

What are you talking about?

>_>

City of Caterpillar hmm... are they similar to CTTS?

Sort of. They're epic in a different sense, though. I can't explain it but they're in the same vein of music.

Upload it for you?

[Neoteric]

Hmm... yeah, alright. Could you make it sendspace or YSI though? Megaupload is awfully buggy.

[bottlerocket]

I'll do it later tonight. I'm uploading 2 other albums for someone else.

[Neoteric]

Ah alright, even though by the time I post this it's the next day >____<

I also obtained self-titled, it's missing something but it's still kinda enjoyable.

[bottlerocket]

I'm uploading it now for you on YSI.

[Neoteric]

Thanks a bunch Gav. I'd rep you but I already have heh.

EDIT: I just noticed your name now says I0Played0Bass :p

[chumpradio]

Anyone hear about how 155 is (+44)s next single?
I think that this will be a huge hit for them, that song is so good.

[bottlerocket]

Good for them!

I really liked When Your Heart Stops Beating.

I think Cliff Diving would be a good single, too. It's probably their most blink-like song.

[chumpradio]

If 155 was a huge single, then they released Cliff Diving, I reckon they would be one of the biggest bands around at the moment, just because those two would be excellent singles.
I haven't heard WYHSB anywhere though, did it get much airplay in America?

[bottlerocket]

Eh, I never listen to the radio so I'm the wrong person to ask.

[Neoteric]

I've only heard When Your Heart Stops Beating. It was good, I liked it but it reminded me too much of Blink...

[bottlerocket]

Someone want to send me the Boxcar Racer album?

[bottlerocket]

Thanks, man. :thumb:

[Neoteric]

No problem :)

[MattSharpIsCool]

I need to listen to Boxcar now.

"Baby, Come On" would make a good single, I think.

[Neoteric]

I remember the song I Feel So and There Is from the Boxcar album.

I Feel So was awesome but There Is was quite lame...

[MattSharpIsCool]

There Is was Boxcar's best song...

[Surtr]

Yeah..Agreed.

Sorry ShapeOfPunk, but There Is was BCR's best song..I Feel So was..not bad, I s'pose it's due for the first listen in 2 years.

[Neoteric]

Hmm... I guess it's just not my thing. I was always more of a Mark fan than a Tom fan.

[Surtr]

Me too, but I still would consider There Is the best BCR song.

[B]

Neither of those songs are.

The amount of cheese is rediculous.

All Systems Go, Watch the World, Tiny Voices, Elevator; all better songs.

[DJ Ducksauce]

I love elevator.

I was listening to the BCR album in my car today and then +44 as well.

[bottlerocket]

The Boxcar .rar didn't work. It said it was damaged. :confused:

Someone else want to upload it?

[MattSharpIsCool]

There Is might not be their best, but it is one of their better songs.

I like Letters From God.

[TheBigMachine]

:o I loverz this album. SO good.

I am behind, why is Gav's name changed to Played instead of Play?

[DJ Ducksauce]

I love 155.

That and Make You Smile are my favorites from the album.


And I can up BCR as soon as I find it.

[B]

:o I loverz this album. SO good.

I am behind, why is Gav's name changed to Played instead of Play?

Because he cut his wrist bad and can't play for a while, so Alex is screwing with him.

[Virus278]

hey, there's a folder in the Blink rarities that DJ Ducksauce posted that says "untitled 2nd demo". I didn't even know that Blink released a demo after flyswatter (besides the Buddha demo tape).

[10571z]

If 155 was a huge single, then they released Cliff Diving, I reckon they would be one of the biggest bands around at the moment, just because those two would be excellent singles.
I haven't heard WYHSB anywhere though, did it get much airplay in America?

I dont really enjoy 155 for some reason just boring. My cliff diving and chapter xii would be way cooler singles IMO

[Neoteric]

Because he cut his wrist bad and can't play for a while, so Alex is screwing with him.Hah, people keep asking him about his name :p

I did aswell.

[chumpradio]

hey, there's a folder in the Blink rarities that DJ Ducksauce posted that says "untitled 2nd demo". I didn't even know that Blink released a demo after flyswatter (besides the Buddha demo tape).
Yeah, it's even rarer than those two demos. It only has 3 songs which cannot be found anywhere else, but the rest are all different recordings so it's cool to have. The songs that are only found on it are pretty crap though, it's only really for proper fans to add to their collection.

[Virus278]

It only has 3 songs which cannot be found anywhere else,

Oh, i see...better days, untitled #1, and untitled #2. So what would the Buddha version of Voyear qualify as? Would that just be part of the Buddha demo tape?

[10571z]

If you want blink rarities just download a torrent of them....

[Surtr]

If you want blink rarities just download a torrent of them....

Or you could just STFU!

[MattSharpIsCool]

I don't see what the point of that was. Honestly, stop giving the guy **** about every single post he makes.

[B]

LOLZ STFU SETH U NUB LOLZ

Yeah I agree it is kind of lame but whatever.

[MattSharpIsCool]

:upset:

[B]

:-*

[bottlerocket]

So do you guys think Enema of the State is the epitome of blink?

When do you think blink was at their peak, musically speaking?

[B]

Always.

Most albums were different enough to not get repetitive, and still be musically decent.

S/T was worse than the rest though.

[bottlerocket]

Yeah...blame that one on "growing up" and the lack of band unity.

Tom was really controlling on that one.

[B]

I know, I've heard in interviews that it was around S/T recording that Tom started changing for the worse.

The rest of their music is all still pretty fun though.

[MattSharpIsCool]

Best musically?

Hmm, probably Dude Ranch. Some decent licks on the guitar and bass on that album, and lots of speed.

I think TOYPAJ was their least musical album.

[bottlerocket]

Enthused is probably the epitome of pop-punk guitar riffs. It's a good example of a pop-punk song.

I think TOYPAJ was their weakest music album, too.

[B]

TOYPAJ may have been the least musical but I still think it was quite good.

All in all none of their albums were overly musical, it's all about the fun.

I think S/T was by far the weakest though.

[MattSharpIsCool]

Ya, I like TOYPAJ quite a bit.

And I thought the untitled album was pretty good. I just can't listen to it a lot in a short period of time.

But "Always" is one of my favorite Blink songs.

[bottlerocket]

I think their musical talent was best shown in Enema of the State.

For Tom and Travis, anyway.

Mark's was on Buddha, since he has actually basslines on that album. After that, he just sort of...gave up. :lol:

[B]

S/T had some strong songs yeah. Always is one of my favourites off of it. It also had some songs I have a strong dislike for. Actually mainly I Miss You. Which I absolutely hate.

I also dislike all their joke songs although at first they were sort of fun.

[MattSharpIsCool]

When I first got the album, I really liked "I Miss You" but once the radio got ahold of it, I grew to hate it. Now that I look back on it, if that album came out today, and had never gotten radio play, I dont think I would like I Miss You. Saying it's a boring song would be a compliment.

[B]

I agree wholeheartedly.

[bottlerocket]

The lyrics in that song are so contrived and boring. Tom was trying so hard to be "deep and significant" in that song.

[MattSharpIsCool]

I do like Mark's part in that song, though. It fits him perfectly.

[bottlerocket]

Yeah, the really low, melodic voice.

[MattSharpIsCool]

I'm listening to "21 Days" right now. Such an awesome song.

[DJ Ducksauce]

I love that song as well.

Buddha is a great album. I should probably go buy it when I have money even though I already have it on MP3.

[Everlong241]

Every time I listen to Cliff Diving I can't help but thinking that Tom will sing the next line and how much more awesome the song would be if he did. Mark's voice is too repetitive...

[bottlerocket]

That's (+44)'s most "blink-esque" song, I think. I know what you mean.

[MattSharpIsCool]

It's a bit heavy for Blink, but I guess it's the closest they get.

[10571z]

Is anyone else a fan of chapter xii... I love it my fav on the album..

[Surtr]

Every time I listen to Cliff Diving I can't help but thinking that Tom will sing the next line and how much more awesome the song would be if he did. Mark's voice is too repetitive...

I felt that way alot through out the album. I kept waiting for Tom's voice.

[Bad Blood]

yeah

i'd always thought marks voice was a bit 'flat' on it's own.

same with toms

which is why blink worked so well.

[poo-poo-pee-pee]

Thier voices were amazing together:

Man Overboard
Stockholm Syndrome
Rock Show (Live, when they alternate the chorus, it's awsome)
Feeling This
Dammit (Live, when Mark sings the verses, and Tom sings the Chorus)
Stay Together For The Kids
...et cetera.

Damn I miss blink...

While on the topic of blink, check out one of the verses from 'Time To Break Up'
A hidden track from TOYPAJ:
"****, ****, I made a mistake,
I thought I needed a break,
The truth is I'm such a dick,
It's broke and can't be fixed."
Very relevant to the situation now I believe.

[Virus278]

If you want blink rarities just download a torrent of them....

I do have those songs. I didn't say i didn't.

[bottlerocket]

Mark and Tom's voices sound great when they sing the final lines of the chorus in "Pathetic":

This is where I belonggggggggg
This is where I beloooooooooooooooooooooooonggggg

And they harmonize.

[Surtr]

I actually just listened to Blink for the first time in a long time.

I didn't listen to much, but I got in 5-6 songs.

[MattSharpIsCool]

Pathetic just might be Blink's pinnacle as a band.

[10571z]

Pathetic has good vocals. But woudlnt say its there best song... My fav Blink songs would be either Man overboard or Stockholm Syndrome. I love how the talking builds up :)

[B]

pathetic is one of my favourite blink songs

I love the mttats version.

[Bad Blood]

I KNOW I'M PATHETIC I KNEW WHEN SHE SAID IT

[poo-poo-pee-pee]

A LOSER, A BUM'S WHAT SHE CALLED ME WHEN I DROVE HER HOME

[Surtr]

DON'T PULL ME DOWN, THIS IS WHERE I BELONG

:)

[Kif]

+44 pre-sale for UK tour has begun. I didn't even know they were playing, but Nottingham is up there so I'm gonna try and get a ticket and see who else I know is goin.

[Surtr]

Kif..I have two things to say to you..

1) Way to ruin the song singing

2) Do it.

[poo-poo-pee-pee]

I think I'm different...?

...I was enjoying that. :upset:

[bottlerocket]

You guys messed up the lyrics.

lol

Anyway, my favorite blink song...hrm, idk. I'd say I have a top 2 or 3 on each album.

If I had to brainstorm:
What's My Age Again?
Mutt
Dammit
M+Ms
Carousel
Enthused
Voyeur
Pathetic
Man Overboard
Dumpweed
Going Away to College

Man, there's way too many. I can't do it. :(

[B]

haha yeah you guys suck at singing lyrics in threads

[Untitled]

I need someone to come see (+44) with me :upset:

[Dead Star]

I need them to announce some Scottish dates :(

[cobert]

haha yeah you guys suck at singing lyrics in threads


Haha, theirs are all big and bold and wiggity whack.

[DJ Ducksauce]

I need a time machine so I can go back and catch the +44 tour. :(

[bottlerocket]

(+44)'s tour was awesome. I enjoyed their set.

I've never liked The Matches, though.

[10571z]

I need them to announce some Scottish dates :(

Bands Go To Scotland?

[Surtr]

I need someone to come see (+44) with me :upset:

I'm in..Just buy me the plane ticket and get me a place to stay and stuff. :thumb: :p

[B]

Bands Go To Scotland?

of course not

[Surtr]

Bands Go To Scotland?

A hell of alot more often than they'd go to Australia.

[Ross]

True actually. They're like, "let's tour england!"

Then, being american, they think that scotland is like a short walk away from london, so they tour there too and don't hire a bus cuz they think they can walk between venues.

[B]

lmfao.

[Dead Star]

Bands Go To Scotland?

well duh

[bottlerocket]

If my band was doing a UK tour, I'd definitely hit up Scotland.

[Surtr]

Me too. There wouldn't be a chance I'd miss Scotland.

I'd go and kick it with J.

[B]

I'd go and get gang beat after making sheep and kilt jokes.

[Surtr]

Haha, I'd probably wear my kilt all the time there, just so people could look at me and be like "Tourist".

[MattSharpIsCool]

Scotland is kind of gay though.

The country's claim to fame is painting their faces blue and white, running around naked and throwing stones at The Romans.

[lunchforthesky]

Scotland is kind of gay though.

A lot of scottish people have never painted their face blue and white or thrown stones at Romans. Suprising i know. Its basically England with a different accent.

[MattSharpIsCool]

Well obviously they don't do that anymore.

Thats why I said it's the country's claim to fame.

Look at it this way though. At least their claim to fame isn't running out of potatoes, like a certain country across the water from England.

[lunchforthesky]

i guess living right by scotland i dont think of it like that, but meh.

oh and i think of guiness and fighting when i think of Ireland. Actually i think of that Simpsons episode on St. Patricks day when they brawl in the street.

[MattSharpIsCool]

I'm just kidding, don't worry.

My old history teacher was Scottish, and he'd always mention how that was the only relevant bit of history in his country's past.

[lunchforthesky]

I'm just kidding, don't worry.

My old history teacher was Scottish, and he'd always mention how that was the only relevant bit of history in his country's past.

ha scottish history is pretty much them trying to stop english people from killing/ruling them, they failed.

[Surtr]

My province's claim to fame actually is this.


We're like the Potatoe capital of the world..lmao.

[chumpradio]

There's a news story saying that Tom said that there's a possibility for Blink to re-unite and make a final album. I call bull on this one, or even if he did say it, I doubt that Mark or Travis have heard about it/agreed.

[lunchforthesky]

i think its just tom being a douche.

[bottlerocket]

^ I agree.

I doubt Mark and Travis are down, after what he did to them. It wouldn't be the same blink 182 anymore, you know? blink 182 was about 3 best friends screwing around, writing catchy music about the difficulties of growing up, and farting and making poop jokes. Tom's too different now and Mark and Travis have grown up a lot, too.

I mean, when you're in your late 30s, do you really want to be singing songs about breaking up with girls, getting kicked out of high school, binge drinking, parties, getting laid, ****ing dogs in the ***, having sex with your grandfather, etc.? I doubt it.

I'd like to see old blink but it will never be that way again, I don't think.

[lunchforthesky]

do you know what would be funny. if mark and travis reformed blink without tom. it would probably suck musically but it would be funny to show tom for being a dick before.

[British Kid]

^ I agree.

makes sense, but it seemed like that up to the very end, things were cool within the band. I think it would be in all of their hearts to forgive and get back together.

[Bad Blood]

oh god i love ST

such a christmas album :)

[bottlerocket]

Are you talking about the untitled album?

[Bad Blood]

yeah

their last one.

[B]

self titles untitled aparently the same thing we had the discussion before

[16 Nipples]

Im from Scotland, and have bought my tickets for the +44 show in Glasgow. I was never going to miss that

And just for the record... Scotland kicks ***- its just like England but replace the posh stuck up ****ers, dodgey laws and tea and crumpets with some balls and fun.... If I was a band I'd tour Scotland more than anywhere else- Scottish crowds are the best there is ... but then again I'm biased......

[B]

haha scottish crowds probably blows

i would def hit up ireland and get ****ing wasted with the crowd and then come back to canada because we have crazy bitches here

[Ross]

Are these gigs selling out? I might have to go see +44 in Newcastle.

i guess living right by scotland i dont think of it like that, but meh.

oh and i think of guiness and fighting when i think of Ireland. Actually i think of that Simpsons episode on St. Patricks day when they brawl in the street.

Hang on, you live in Leeds!

That ain't right by Scotland! (although compared to 99% of the forum, I guess it is)

[lunchforthesky]

Hang on, you live in Leeds!

yeah i meant on the same strip of land lol.

[apple pie]

I say we need more blink, and less spin offs.

[bottlerocket]

I agree.

:chug:

I also decided Touchdown Boy is probably the most underrated blink song.

That, Boring, and Enthused.

[B]

nah man those are like my favourite songs man

[bottlerocket]

So underrated by other blink fans, I've found.

[lunchforthesky]

ethused is one of my favourties. i think peggy sue gets kind of neglected

[bottlerocket]

I'd back that.

[cobert]

Peggy Sue is up there for my favorite song by them.

Waaaant to take off your shoes justa
Walk barefoot down the street
Just to be the things that you can be
Just live for one more week

[Ross]

I'm sick of always hearing sappy love songs on the radio.

<3

[cobert]

I know
just where
I stand
a boy
trapped in the body
of a man

[Ross]

Aurgh! Now I want to listen to Blink, but I'm totally into +44 right now.

Might just bash up a playlist and stick it on random repeat. Then chill all night with some malibu or baileys till I have to get up in the morning. mmmmm.

[lunchforthesky]

so just hold in all your agressions
cause your grinding your teeth on down to
the bottom of your chin


EDIT: this thread always makes me want to listen to Blink

[DJ Ducksauce]

Man, Peggy Sue was one of my favorites from Cheshire along with Wasting Time and M+Ms.

I think that Buddha Carousel>CC Carousel

[bottlerocket]

I think that Buddha Carousel>CC Carousel

Well, duh!

That version rules so hard, although CC rules, too.
