Blink-182 Are Mysterious

2009-04-27 by PuddleSwimmer | 32 Comments
There are pictures posted on Mark Hoppus' blog of Blink-182 in front of a green screen. No comments are being offered on them, however, except this statement from Hoppus:

"It's definitely not what it seems to be. It's not really a music video shoot, and it's not really a movie shoot. It's something that no other band has done, and the technology behind it is ridiculous. I don't even know how to explain it."

Hoppus tries not to give too much away (or maybe he is actually clueless).
"I can tell you this ... when everything is finished, you won't be seeing a big green wall behind us. It'll be a different shade of green, more of a forest-y green. But they have to do that digitally, as we couldn't find forest-green paint."

You can check out the pictures here

So there are 3 possibilities:
1. Mark Hoppus is just reeling us in falsely claiming mystery. This is a music video.
2. Mark Hoppus did not know music videos already existed
3. Blink-182 is doing something pretty unique and their break has reinspired creativity.

Heh, I saw this.

Green screen technology, Mark Hoppus is clearly struggling to catch up with the times.

I'm just guessing it's answer number 1. I'm glad to see they got their humor back, hopefully in transfers into their new album.

God damn.
I posted this around 2 or so days ago, yet for some reason it didn't get posted.

Either way, I'm excited for anything new from Blink.

Is this going to be like the time Tom Delonge was going to revolutionise music and then he just made an Angels and Airwaves album?

Another vote that Hoppus didn't know that music videos existed and that green is the color that we use to impose other images on.

Pretty sure Sel Balamir came up with the octopus thing first. Mark is stealing.

A forest? Blink-182 Lord of the Rings remake? They could get so many puns out of "ring" for it at least.

If that's the case, Mark obv doesn't know about Flight of the Conchords.

Frodo! Don't wear the ring! I know it's very tempting
