Holy fuck andcas I can't believe you have 43k comments :-O

That's gotta be a record

yikes....

I believe sonic and KILL have more. But, you also have to take in to consideration that over half of sonic's comments consist of "dam."

gypsy swag

That was a slap in the face from nostalgia. I'm with andcas, it's a damn good song and extremely refreshing to hear.

whats up with the weird drums?

i bet you anything 43k of those posts are just in the Neighborhoods thread.

^ u mad bro?

couldn't get into song. but then again, I didn't enjoy any "mature" blink either

It wasn't dude, it was meant to be a dangerous leap off of niagra falls.

182??????????????/

this sounds fucking good

songs awful too

in a barrel.

on ecstasy.

this sounds like a TOYPAJ b-side
rules

this sounds like a TYPOAJ b-side
rules [2]

so awesome

This song is lovely. I agree with andcas, the Mark and Tom singing together is awesome, and I especially enjoy Tom's voice in this. Makes me wanna hug him.

sounds familiar

Man that chorus sucks...

After one listen I honestly don't know if I like it or hate it...

Great song, EP should be good.

Pretty fucking good for a Christmas song.

"whats up with the weird drums?" [2]

Thought the same thing. I actually stopped the song to see if my itunes had started playing a different song or something.

Fantastic song

it's okay. good for an original christmas song.

Go blink

"i bet you anything 43k of those posts are just in the Neighborhoods thread."

you'd bet wrong, especially considering that andcas doesn't particularly love neighborhoods or their
s/t.

yeah this song sucks, expected slightly better

one of which is a significantly better 3.5 than the other

No way! Gonna listen now

...sounds more like old school blink than neighborhoods. FUCK YES

Sound good, but the drums sound weird
Couldn't Travis record with them and did they have to use a drum computer or something?

Does Neighborhoods sound like this? I haven't heard it yet, but I really like this.

this is a pretty bad song. I'm not sure if I like it yet though.

smash mouth's all star was the first thing that came to mind

ugh

smash mouth lol

"Hate to be the critic, but the opening vocal melody is almost exactly the same as "all star" by smash mouth. Tom keeps repeating vocal melodies from his previous songs in AVA, now hes copying (probably unintentional) smash mouth."

somebody once told me
the world is gonna show me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed"

let's get started
the fame and broken hearted...

how do you not hear the comparison?!

it's pretty blatantly obvious here

I mean I wasn't even old enough to hear that song on the radio 24/7 in 2001 or 02 or whatever. and
that was the very first thing I thought, 'hm, something about this seems a bit familiar.'

andcas, you act as if similar melodies are schemed upon

and besides that, the chorus is still crap

songs sound similar all the time, especially when they're based on the same 4 power chords. let's not go all Satriani here.

smash mouth read that and was like "people still acknowledge us cool"

I'd like to thank theacademy.

blink-182 will go to jail: charged for premeditated copying

andcas, you act like I was accusing blink for copying smash mouth. I said that they sounded similar. you also seem to be assuming that I think the song sucks because I think they ripped of smash mouth.

which is very wrong, I think that the song just plain sucks.

andcas you have the wit of a stool.

Lol, an alt. I'm a new user who has no investment into the community but came across this thread and was stupefied by your obstinacy.

whoever wins this internet argument will have a larger e-penis

Bad song.
This band should never have returned.

"Lol, an alt. I'm a new user who has no investment into the community but came across this thread and was stupefied by your obstinacy."

a new user who knows what and how the word "alt" is used...

impressive.

I stopped Lifetime for this shit? No more new blink.

what?

Pretty good, the drums are kinda weird though

Reminds me a little bit of "What Went Wrong", but not as good. I don't hate it, but I can't really say I like it. To me it comes across as an acoustic Angels and Airwaves song with a random Mark Hoppus chorus about Christmas which seems totally out of place.

Not good

OH IT'S BLINK ONE EIGHTY-TWO

Not bad. Wasn't expecting an acoustic song.

very meh

chorus is awful

not really feeling this

i think blink should have stopped making albums with their s/t, should have gone out on a high note

this is pretty mediocre-rony, okily-dokily

song kinda sucks yeah

"i think blink should have stopped making albums with their s/t, should have gone out on a high note"

this

Love all blink. Pretty good song. Not their best, but still pretty good.

I cannot unhear the Smash Mouth comparison.

It's aight.

I never listened to this group growing up, so I don't get it at all.

rly bad

yea...

If you wanna hear acoustic Blink, listen to Box Car Racer and be done with it.

Looks like he's making the same dumbass comments on the comments in the link. Yeah it has 3 similar intervals to Smash Mouth's song. That means practically nothing, especially with a different chord progression and rhythm.

i cant listen tot he song i search it on youtube and it sounds like toms voice is slowed down

song was boring and did have awkward drums, infinitely better than the new green day/ offspring.

can't get into it.

Average song, nothing special

This thread should be renamed to "Blink 182 Stream New Song". The familiarity implied by calling them simply "Blink" is unprofessional, and it's also kind of nauseating. While you're at it, change the title to "The Worst Band Ever Take Another Shit in the Ears of the World."

Well... that'd be unprofessional as well, using an opinion as a headline, no?

I could probably think of worse bands than blink 182 shitting in the ears of the world.

ashesofman made me realise I like getting shat in the ears.
I never knew I was into that kind of stuff

https://soundcloud.com/a55va6/blink-182-dogs-eating-dogs-ep

Minute & a half long previews of all the songs on the EP. They all sound similar in quality to this one.

Well I'm a music major and play 7 instruments as well as know my theory quite well. While the melody is similar, it isn't the same overall. There are only so many intervals that can be used, using 3 similar ones isn't a copyright issue.

Well titles have to be a certain length here. And somehow Blink Stream New Song rolls off the tongue a lot better than your suggestion about shitting in ears.

YEP STILL BLINK ONE EIGHTY-TWO

I heard the previews. The EP is better than Neighborhoods, but it doesn't say much. Just he 2 first songs looks decent.

Only fanboys are trying to downplay the similarities to "star". I have no investment at all in this band, so I can give an unbiased perspective.

THIS SOUNDS LIKE SMASHMOUTH

song's alright, nothing special

new clips and shits!!! http://absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=2979742

i never said they should come back

why the fuckkkkkk does Tom sing so much now

Ok, song is good but nothing else, this is one of the most overrated acts in the histoy of this genre and a really overrated act in this website, the offspring, brand new, descendents and pennywise are far better.

Blink are way more consistent than The Offspring. Seriously, listen to their past 3 albums. Neighborhoods sucked from
Blink, but everything else rules.

Smash, Ignition and Ixany destroys everything made by this band, even americana and conspiracy are more enjoyable, besides, mark and tom aren't the best vocalist, sometimes they could get annoying. Otherwise, I prefer that they made another blink album to another angels and airwaves lp or another plus 44 album ( that shit was awful )

Dude,I compare everything and if I said that those 5 offspring albums are far better that dude ranch and enema people have to deal with it.

Doesn't make it true. And a lot of people hate Dexter's voice too. It's punk music, we aren't looking for technical vocalists. But the Offspring's worst is no doubt worse than Blink's worst.

I didn't say that Dexter was more techincal than Mark or Tom, I know that in pop punk you are not counting that factor, you can't judge with the same standard that you judge neurosis or porcupine tree. I was just saying that Dexter voice is more enjoyable than mark's voice, Mark an tom has some good moments, but in a big group of the blink soft songs the voice of mark annoys me, with dexter I don't feel constantly that problem, maybe in the last album and splinter there are some bad vocal moments but nothing else.the shit They released between 1994 and 2000 are jewels and destroys everything made by Mark, Tom and Travis because is less poppy, whiny and for me has more energy and passion.

"tom has always sang more than mark"

its always been close to 50/50 up untill the S/T where it was more 60/40 but now its like 75/25

"Blink are way more consistent than The Offspring. Seriously, listen to their past 3 albums. Neighborhoods sucked from
Blink, but everything else rules."

idrc about offspring so much except for like 2 albums but noooo.

Offspring haven't really done anything worth listening to since Ixnay came out for me. I kind of gave up on them after Conspiracy Of One and Splinter.

I like listening to Mark sing more than I do Tom. I prefer the songs where they both sing tho. I wish they would do it more often.

Ok and that's respectable, don't take me wrong, they aren't bad but they are not one of the best of the genre as many people preach. Sometimes the voice of Tom and Mark is annoying and that problem is notorious in some of the slow tracks that these dude have made, their strength is visible in tracks like Josie, Man Overboard, Feeling this and shit like that, but I can't tolerate stay togheter for the kids and I miss you. I enjoy more other bands of the genre and americana and conspiracy are for better than neighboorhods and a big part of the material of the dudes, is more funny and dexter voice is more enjoyable ( obviously is an opinion)

I will give Holland credit, he can write some pretty clever lyrics. Its more the music that bothers me with them. It just feels like they have been retreading the same ground for the last 10 or so years. At least Blink 182 are trying new things. Plus, Hollands voice can really get on my nerves in certain songs, but I can say the same for Tom too.

Redman is not bad at all kid, their mid 90's shit is sick.

For me blink has ok music. but I prefer the musicanship of the offspring. Even sometimes I can tolerate more the last 3 album than some songs of Blink. Besides trying new things doesn't mean that the experiment will be succesful.

True, but they are at least giving some new ideas a shot. I doubt either band will get back to the success they had in the 90s/early 00s. For me, they are both more of a nostalgic factor and I don't really give either of them too many listens anymore, but I still occasionally check to see when and if they are making new music.
