This didn't grow on me, as a matter a fact, it got worse with each listen. I wouldn't be surprised if this band fades into complete obscurity by 2018.

No, there's too much money in their name for them to be "Done". But don't expect anything remotely redeeming after this.



It doesn't even feel like they're trying to be Blink. I normally am open to bands that come forward with "new sounds", but this isn't anything new. In fact, this is the same generic, tween angst filled mediocrity that I would expect from a band like Fall Out Boy.

The only tracks I wanted to skip were Los Angeles (synths and programmed beats) Home is Lonely (bleh, acoustic), Teenage Satellites, San Diego (recycled riff, cringey chorus) and California (bleh, acoustic). So 5 out of 14? Joke tracks excluded, That's 9 solid tracks. Just seems like the album's bloated.

Guys, I highly recommend you listen to Angels and Airwaves new song "Overload" off their new EP 'Chasing Shadows'. It's not Blink, but it's definitely more reminiscent to the Self-Titled album than this crock of shite is.

This album depresses the fuck out of me. I wish I was in the camp of people who thought it was 100% terrible. It's so much worse when it's painfully average.

I actually really enjoyed Los Angeles. I'm not entirely sure why though, it felt as far from 'Traditional Blink' as could possibly be managed.

Honestly this isn't bad but I've never heard a pop punk album that I have found boring af until listening to this. First Blink album so wasn't sure what to expect.

Like honestly I'm 20~ minutes into this an I feel like I've been listening to this for over an hour.

the songs with passable lyrics are executed poorly, wheras the songs with the worst lyrics are executed passably...at least for the standards of a blink album



then you have stuff like sober and no future. songs that sound like they had two parts of songs, didnt know what to do with them so they just put them together!
