blink 182 was one of the first bands i listened to. I think theyre music is good. Their only good albums however are Enema of the state, their live cd, and Take off your pants and jacket. i give this cd a 5/5 because i personally liked the music. I dont know why everybody hates em. Its they only punk band i like. i love playing my guitar to this album.

I know they are perverted, but they crack me up. Thats a good quality to have (arent you glad were not all the same?)

z is me, an enema is: an injection of fluids in the gluetius maximus (sp?) used to elimate fecal matter. In other words, a shot in the rear end. (see, blink's potty humor?)

I think the idea that 'Adam's song' is about a fan committing suicide is a rumour... I read in an interview with Travis that he said something along the lines of 'It's about coming home from tour and you're really bummed and you just want to sit at home and chill with friends but they all wanna go out' or something like that.

Anyone got any links of any of the other band members saying it's about something different?

There's a thread on the title page of pop-punk called Blink 182 question, i'd link it but this comp is useless and slow so I can't sorry. Go look at it for all your answers.

This is a brilliant album. The vocals are poppy, on some songs that brings them down. All these songs are better on MTTS. If you can find a copy, you should pick that up instead. Because you almost certainly won't be able to, this is the first blink album you should pick up.

do they have a strange obsesion with dick jokes they piss me off

I agree with aguywithaguitar. I'm biased, though. Enema was one of the first CD's I ever bought too, and I admit I'm emotionally attached. What did you guys think of their live album? That's my favorite, but there's a bias there as well, because I'm a sucker for the caricatures drawn on the cover.

Album Rating: 3.0

hehe... i suck. when i heard All The Small Things, that really got me into blink-182, but I skipped the CD because I was 8 or 9 back then. Then Man Overboard came out and I skipped The ... Show. Then The Rock Show came out and I skipped TOYPAJ. Then I bought the new CD and downloaded their old stuff. Man did I miss out on a lot. And I'm still listening to What's My Age Again because it's so **** catchy and because I can play it.

i have to totally disagree with everyone who says this is the worst release from blink 182. dude ranch was a great album, but in all honestly its no better than enema of the state. its just different. you have to remember, enema was the first release with their new drummer, as well as their first major label release. so of course its going to be different. (and on a side note- to everyone that says blink and many others sold out by signing to a major label and getting on mtv, Fu[/I]ck that. you show me a guy who will refuse millions of dollars to do something he already loves doing, and ill show you a friggin deusch bag. so youre getting paid to do what you love and people are hearing your music! is that the end of the gd world?) back to enema. im not saying the album is perfect. they have never been master musicians, lyricists, or singers. but it deserves a lot more credit than what its being given. its a good fun album with a lot of decent songs, and a few great ones. and with the entry of travis to the band, the drumming has made the band over completely. 2.75 out of 5 my a[I]ss. ps to everyone who gave the album a chance, clown love yo.

hey does music have to be serious and hard all the time?
why cant u just appreciate a simple catchy album?
music is ment to be enjoyed.
and i enjoy immature blinkish humor
so **** off

Album Rating: 4.5

i have to say that i do like this album. this is the album where it seems like they are starting to turn into a "real" band as opposed to a garage band. im a hard rock fan, and not a big fan of punk. theyre chord progressions are improving and it seems like they are becoming more musical instead of playing notes and chords that sound good together.



i rate it a 3.5 / 5

agree completly

The greatest pop-punk release ever. Every song is catchy and has a subject which most, if not all teens can relate to. I can see why some don't like this album, but I believe it will be the album that represents the genre perfectly. It's fast, fun, slightly retarded, catchy as hell and just bursting with hit singles. I give it a 5/5, I still sometimes listen to it despite my tastes maturing somewhat since 1999.

Yah kif, ur right. Blink 182 is known for their 'blinkish humor' and even running around naked. That is how they got famous (besides their music). AC/DC is the same way. Angus Young is puts on an insane show at his live concerts. If you listen to their recordings of concerts or have ever been to a concert you know what im talking about.

[QUOTE=Drunk Hobo]You could say that pretty much any band is repetitive. For example, Metallica: constantly singing about death, pain and suffering, and most (if not all) of their songs are in E.

This album is fast, happy, catchy and funny. The drums sound good (god knows why you picked out the recording quality), as does everything else on the album. The songs are well written, albeit pretty **** basic. They ain't very talented, but Travis Barker is amazing.


I give it 3.5/5


Blink is cheesy and Metallica ain't?[/QUOTE]
well arent you the retard.

i lik most of the songs its awsome

this album is great, its livly and cheerful and great to mosh to. it even better live. if you ever get a chance to go see these guys do it, put everything else hold, and get this album as well if you havnt for some unkown sicotic reason....go.....now...buy

This is the best album by blink 182 ever. Hope they come back.

Album Rating: 2.5

I thought it was good when I first listened to it. Then I dug a bit more and found their old albums and wow. This is a pretty bad CD.



Catchy as hell, though.

i personally liked this album yea its poppy and yea the riffs tom uses arent the beest but they give the feeling and this album was the big hitter for ppl who didnt even knew blink but yea dudes ranch is really awesome cant compare with this one
