It's a decent, dissapointing that the goddamn bloke can't sing though.

Check this article out from MTV-

Mark Hoppus would like you to know that everything you've heard regarding Plus-44 is wrong.

From the countless impostors posting fake songs online and numerous fan sites posing as the Plus' official site to the common description of the band as "an electronic side project," misinformation abounds. And so finally, after more than a year of silence, Hoppus — along with Plus bandmate Travis Barker — decided it was time to clear the air.

"This is the first interview we've done about the band. We didn't want to talk about the record until it was nearly finished. We had an idea about what it was going to be, and it changed, but now we can finally talk about it," Hoppus said (see "When It Comes To Publicity, Plus-44's Mark Hoppus Is No Tom DeLonge"). "But because of our silence, all these people online started to make up their own sh--. They made their own songs and posted them saying they're our songs. The stuff that's out there now isn't really Plus-44."

"It's kind of flattering that some kids would go out there and post songs under our name," Barker added. "I mean, at least it means that people are excited to hear our stuff."

Speaking to MTV News from their studio in Hollywood — where they were putting the finishing touches on Plus' debut album, tentatively called Little Death — Hoppus and Barker were beyond excited to finally be putting all the gossip to bed, and to finally have some real Plus-44 songs out there. After all, most of the music has been more than a year in the making (see "Blink-182's Hoppus, Barker Form Electronic Side Project").

"We started Plus-44 more than a year ago, writing songs in Travis' basement and my living room, and in that time we've changed some things, we've tried stuff and pulled and pushed songs," Hoppus said. "One song, 'Weatherman,' was one of the first ones we started in Travis basement. One night, I had a dream — and I woke up in the middle of the night and I had this guitar part in my head. So I had to pick up a guitar and write it down. And that matched perfectly with this part that Travis had written on his keyboard. We built it in Travis's basement, and that was a year ago, and we just finished it."

And there have been plenty of changes: Original vocalist Carol Heller is gone, replaced by a pair of guitarists: Craig Fairbaugh and Shane Gallagher. Producer Dan "The Automator" Nakamura was called in to tinker with a track. And finally — and most importantly — the band's sound underwent a rather drastic transformation. And to that end, it's no longer entirely correct to refer to Plus as merely an "electronic" act.

"At first, we had the idea that it would have a lot of electronic influences, because by necessity we were recording on a computer. But then we bought this studio, and after we moved the band into here, the whole vibe changed," Hoppus said. "There's all kinds of stuff going on. Guitars mixed with keyboards, and electronic drums mixed with live drums. It's based on guitars and rhythms, and both Shane and Craig are great guitar players."

But for all their candor, there's one topic that neither Hoppus nor Barker were particularly anxious to speak about: their former bandmate, Tom DeLonge.

While DeLonge's rather unique promotional methods for his new band, Angels & Airwaves — which included promising feature films and spouting off such head-scratching statements as "This is the best music made in decades. ... It is so much more powerful, emotional and melodic than Box Car and Blink put together" — rubbed many people the wrong way, they were just par for the course for his former musical compatriots.

"I have to say you're definitely seeing what the real Tom was like, and that's the only comment I'll make about him or his band," Barker said. "But everything happens for a reason. If the Blink breakup didn't happen, we wouldn't be here right now, and we wouldn't have been able to make the record we did. ... It's the best thing in the world."

— James Montgomery, with reporting by Yasmine Richard, MTVNews


Seems to me as if Mark and Travis are not on good terms with Tom. It also seems like Plus 44 is no longer going to be electronic or experimental, just a straight out punk rock band. Im excited about it

form 07-21-2006 02:51 PM

meh, im not exicted/looking forward for 44, but im glad carol is gone cause i think itll be better

Bad Blood 07-21-2006 02:54 PM

i think mark and travis are jealous tbh

[QUOTE=Snowball Fight!]i think mark and travis are jealous tbh[/QUOTE]
Why should they be?

Ava suck, i think most of there sucsess is a lot of blink fans just liking it because its to delonge.

And Mark >>>>>>>>>> Tom.

Bad Blood 07-21-2006 03:46 PM

Well, jealous because they know that Tom has loads of fans and followers and he gets away with what he does, plus his band have been somewhat successful so far.

Plus Mark and Travis didn't want to get rid of Blink, so it's like they got pushed away and Tom has found something better than them.

poo-poo-pee-pee 07-21-2006 07:10 PM

I really like AVA, but honestly, I think it was a bit of a dud compared to what Tom said it would be. I dunno about other countries, but in Australia, I don't think the album even hit the charts, neither did either of the singles. The album sales have been pretty bad, well at least for what the should've been.
I dunno, I just think Tom would be a little disapointed with how people reacted to the album, I'm sure it's not what he was expecting, nor what he wanted.

I liked it when Travis said "I have to say you're definitely seeing what the real Tom was like, and that's the only comment I'll make about him or his band"

I have high hopes for Plus 44.

yourstruly 07-21-2006 10:38 PM

[B]F[/B]uck both those bands. I don't want to support them anymore. I just want Blink back.

EDIT: I say this, but I probably won't go through with it.

I AGREE 100% .... Ava is just ****... every song is same tempo... All same effects used. nothing catchy. One say all these little fag tom delonge lovers will relise this. Ava is one of the worst albums i have ever heard. Theres not one track i would class blink 182 quality. Untitled You are smart

Get Fighted 07-22-2006 07:19 AM

Anybody else think Dammit is 1,432,652,432 times better live?

...Well, it is.

Surtr 07-22-2006 05:48 PM

Ladys And Gentlemen, Mark Hoppus Wins. I like AvA, but after giving the Hi My Name Is Mark Podcasts a complete re-listen, and seeing that interview, I'd hang with Mark before Tom anyday.

yessir

yourstruly 07-22-2006 07:58 PM

yeah it is. It's faster aswell so it's more fun to play.

DJ Ducksauce 07-22-2006 08:00 PM

And the interlude is the best part of the song when they perform live.

I was listening to some of Tom's serious acoustic songs(What Went Wrong/Letters to God). Man those songs rock.

form 07-22-2006 08:01 PM

hell yes letters to god is my favorite

yourstruly 07-22-2006 08:02 PM

yeah they are, Tom's a good song writer.

Surtr 07-22-2006 08:36 PM

I was thinking the other day (While we're on the acoustic subject)....

After watching some of the S/T recording videos, a acoustic remake of the S/T album would be awesome. I like the sound of the S/T songs on Acoustic guitar. They have this same, but no where near the same feel as the songs as we know them.
