I think Adam Lazarra cannot sing, and TBS would be a lot better with a more talented singer.

That's the first one that came to mind.

Shows what you know.[/QUOTE]

Minority is awesome too. Easy but awesome.

And more than half insomniac has awesome bass lines too.

Yeah Tom Delonge aint that good a guitarist, he still wrote some kick *** riffs eg Wasting Time, M+Ms, Carousel etc etc. For anyone that says he added nothing to Blink listen to Boxcar Racer, and btw it was Tim Armstrong from rancid that someboy was talking about and he was not the bass player for Boxcar. Mark is an okay Bass player, great singer, great songwriter and one funny guy. Anywayz back to the topic I'd say all The Sex Pistols wer very average.

[QUOTE=Kif]Blink-182: Tom Delonge

I'm not even lying, and considering they used to be my favourite band, I think that's quite a bold statement.

The point is that he doesn't bring much to the band. His riffs are very basic (Then again, so are Mark's basslines), and his singing is pretty much intolerable for me now (Unlike Mark, who can actually sing very well). Plus, I think he thinks he has the most control over the band, and that makes me feel uncomfortable.[/QUOTE]

Stop being an ar'sehole, your not owning anyone.

Opinions are allowed, even if they are about your precious Tom Delonge.

The only one that sticks out in that list is m&m's. The rest are just mediocre.

Angry Balled Fists! 11-11-2005 11:05 AM

I hate the riff to M&m's, Carousel is my favourite...

Reebock Comsershall has a pretty cool solo.

anarchist/prostitute 11-11-2005 11:09 AM

[QUOTE=vote me]:rolleyes: of corse he dosent make great songs he has no talent :rolleyes:

he wrote some of the worlds best pop-punk songs
and let me see you write a riff like m+ms when your 18 years old[/QUOTE]

i like blink... Tom's not a good guitar player at all... he'd probably ****t his pants if you asked him to play a C major scale... but his riffs are catchy.... repetitive... but catchy. somehow in their career as a band... his playing got worse as they put more albums out :confused:

For future reference, don't triple post. Use the edit button.

I think Tom is a decent guitarist. For the music he writes, he does a great job.

He's not bad, proberly better then he shows, he has been playing for 15 years or something, i wanna hear his AVA stuff, see how it sounds.

Angry Balled Fists! 11-11-2005 11:19 AM

He plays power pop, so he isn't going to show all his skills.

Good song writer though.

That's basically what I meant. I've heard a lot of people say that he has a lot more talent than his music shows.

cobert 11-11-2005 06:54 PM

Wasting time, reebok commercial, and m+m's all have some allright guitar. Still, 3 riffs doesnt make him a good guitarist.

This thread is ANCIENT.

south_guitar 11-11-2005 09:06 PM

[QUOTE=albert_bass]Probably more talented or equally talented bassists I can think of (in pop-punk or similar):

Hunter (AFI)
Jesse (Lagwagon)
Matt Freeman obviously
Tomek (Satanic Surfers)
Roger (LTJ)
Chris #2 (Anti-flag)
Let's say the guy from saves the day
Alvarez from Descendents

And some of these I have to think about it to say it...[/QUOTE]
Hunter is very good. Some of his work has the most interesting basslines that I've ever heard from a band of their style.

...and this thread is really old. I missed that.

Ross 11-12-2005 09:33 AM

A page of replies in the past few days... The thread is reborn.

Ish. Or not.

Ok so it is old.

And who says only decent musicians to write good songs anyway?!

Ok I'm gonna stop there. I might say something relevant soon.

Listen to [i]S.C.I.E.N.C.E.[/i] and say that again. He rips that album up!

fenderstratboy2 11-13-2005 04:34 PM

Story of the Year can definetly use a new singer. they may not be great, but i like them, just the singing doesnt appeal to me

Thats their best album. Other than on there, that guy didnt do much. And they replaced him anyways.

holy **** i must disagree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i think dustin is one of the best vocalists out there

[QUOTE=redrumsixsix6]holy **** i must disagree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i think dustin is one of the best vocalists out there[/QUOTE]

He's good at showing emotion and power in his vocals.

His range is really nothing special, though, and his scream is completely average.

fair enough.......on the new album his range is even bigger. Him a Teppi are really good together tho cause teppi has such a more high or trebly voice. perfect for backup vox. But i guess alown he is average
