Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
I love Wishing Well because it makes me want to go on an oceanic adventure =D
Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
Like I said before, it definetely has those influences of AVA and (+44) and some songs sound like the old Blink definetely, but I don't feel it. There's something missing, maybe the alchemy they used to have.
Like for example, where's the power (again) in the GOTDF-chorus?
Seriously, there are some cool musical ideas on this record, but they could have done more with them imo.
Liking Natives and Wishing Well, This Is Home is horrible.
Such a pity they didn't complete the step they took with their last album.

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
I kinda like every song except for Up All Night and Ghost On The Dancefloor, a pretty good album, I'm definitely not disappointed! (YET :P), but also it definitely isn't better than their Untitled album
that was the thing I always forgot to do after I'd installed Ubuntu on computers of my friends, than I had to send them the line afterwards
it also works with Ubuntu, and with Ubuntu you have to use that line to make UNrar workBoni Boy Blue wrote:I never had to do that, unrar comes with the restricted extras. Also apt-get only works with Debain based Linux distros. Not all Linux supports apt.

Mark: Sometimes when I talk in 3rd person i end up calling tom mark
Tom:Yea than he starts touching me and i think thats masturbation
Some people think were idiots or perverts dont argue were both.

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
After Midnight was like a more straight up less goth version of The Cure. I haven't listened to the rest so I can't say. But yeah that song definitely had a bit of Cure in it. But not even the chorus, just the verse and bridge thing.Jake wrote:People keep mentioning the cure?! Does anyone actually listen to the cure?! Coz I'm not gettin' it.

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
This album is fucking awesome and the weird thing is that I don't like any other Blink-182 album at all. I don't really like any of their earlier songs. Wishing Well & After Midnight are highlights for me. But I really can't stand Mark's vocals at all. I don't like his voice at all and he's not that great singer either. Tom's vocals are perfect.

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
Well I kinda agree with Samuel, I like their previous work but so far this album sounds pretty cool to me, and I prefer Tom's vocals to Mark's... I've been listening a lot to AVA lately, so I guess that's why it doesn't "shock" me, I'm sure some people were expecting the old Blink, but that AVA and +44 feel in some songs works for me !Lars wrote:You just gave me a definition of the expression "What the fuck?!".samueeL wrote:This album is fucking awesome and the weird thing is that I don't like any other Blink-182 album at all.

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
This album is in my line of expectation.. It's a good mix with everything they done beside Blink and a good follow up for a an album that doesn't exist after their untitled..
Some days it just gets so hard
And I don’t wanna slip away.

I'd choose Mark's vocals over Tom's any day.

I definitely can sense The Cure throughout the album, at some parts definitely, and I would call myself a big The Cure fanJake wrote:People keep mentioning the cure?! Does anyone actually listen to the cure?! Coz I'm not gettin' it.

The new CD sounds like everything the members have done in side projects, and I pretty much dislike every sideproject they ever been involved in.
The fact that you dislike Box Car Racer makes this statement invalid. Haha

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
The synth in This Is Home makes it sound like some of the more happy and optimistic Cure songs... kinda like Friday I'm In Love for example.
Fighting the Grave also has a very much Cure feel to it.

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
This is probably my personal AOTY. Love everything about it. No tracks that I have skipped since purchasing it.
And as people suggested, a lot of the synthy parts had a much more Cure feel to it than AVA. The only AVA aspect of this for me is Tom's still unexplained shift in vocals.
After Midnight, Snake Charmer, Wishing Well, Kaleidoscope, and Fighting The Gravity are my recommended tracks.. but I think ANY track is fantastic to listen to.

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.
So when I say I'm scared to be alone, you know I mean it,
I'm just not ready to leave my room.

Re: Blink 182 Discussion Thread
I have the guitars tabs to most of the new blink songs, pm if you want them, but I'm going to create a thread on 182online for them.
