Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 267

I hope he has another Cynical in him.

 

Yes please. That's the most energetic Matt has sounded in years.

 

I just realize now you changed your name. Had no idea where this guy came from lol

 

Hahaha yeah I loved the new Story Of The Year album so much I changed my name. It was that good. Same familiar user, new name lol

 

thought it might be in reference to Tom Delonge telling Joe Rogan’s producer about the existence of werewolves off air

 

That’s a no from me, dawg.

 

Ditto

 

i know musically and sonically it may not be their best, but Neighborhoods came out during a very important period in my life.

GOTD holds a very special place in my heart and i remember when i saw them play it live in 2013 at the Brisbane show in Aus, it was just like the biggest rush of pure emotion i felt in a long long time.

 

Oh I won’t deny that Neighborhoods has some great tracks. There’s a handful of songs on there I still love. I don’t dislike any blink album. And GOTD holds a special place to me too (my uncle passed the day Neighborhoods came out so that song hit Home).

But I will pick California over it every time. California is much more cohesive and Skiba has layers to his vocals that Blink hasn’t had on a while

 

Neighborhoods gave us After Midnight so I can look past most of the mess.

 

I still dig Neighborhoods for the most part. I could do without This is Home and Love is Dangerous though.

 

Neighborhoods is also significantly more fun to play along with on your guitar.

 

For sure. There’s not a single song on California that I enjoy playing on guitar lol

 

I haven't actively tried learning a Blink song on guitar since TOYPAJ, but I know how to play the main riff to "Feeling This."

 

Easy Target is probably my favorite to play. So fun to nail the outro

 

Stockholm Syndrome, Go, and Easy Target are my favorite Untitled songs to play on guitar. If we get another album with Matt, I hope he adds more of his style, because Trio songs are really fun to play.

 

I can play the intros to Dammit, WMAA and Adam's Song. Terribly. Cause I suck lol

 

You mean you don't have fun playing C G Am F over and over?

 

Yeah I definitely miss Tom's guitar riffs.

 

i've missed Tom's guitar riffs since 2004

 

OG Missing Tom's Riffs

 

Well yeah, I mean I think it's obvious. I stopped counting Tom's work since the original break up. Although I do think Ghost on the Dance Floor, Up All Night, After Midnight, Wishing Well and Even If She Falls have good riffs.

 

I am disliking the California hate. But with my new account name I Feel I lost my right as the California’s champion

 

California is a good album but the riffs on it are rather lackluster you have to admit.

 

Oh yeah, I mean there are a couple cool ones (No Future, Misery, etc) but yes it doesn’t hold a candle to Untitled or anything.


still better than Neighborhoods by miles though in every other category across the map.
