Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 794

Get your studded belts and sweatbands out.

 

the wrist sweat bands

 

Lol multiple friends wanted to go so I guess I’m seeing Angels & Airwaves in 2019.

I wonder how confused my 16 year old self would be if I told him in 2007 that in 2019 I would be seeing blink-182 and Angels & Airwaves in the same summer but only seeing Tom live once

 

Two days straight of mostly positivity in this thread. This is why I like blink-182 releases lol

 

Spent some time looking around the internet to get a collection of what people are saying about Blink-182:

Selling out I guess:

Blink have officially SOLD OUT. They no longer care about the music, they only care about sleeping on their huge piles of money. Who knew they would ever stoop down so low?

So overproduced:

WHATS WRONG? they started to make some overproduced and boring songs that only demostrate that their time of fame is going down. If you have a good formula to make cds and entertain people what would you change it?

There's more:

I used to think the music is good. I don't mind stupid lyrics and untalented musicians (Travis is good) as long as the songs are infectious and amusing. However, I guess the boys got tired of being called un-talented and got tired of hearing how much they sucked live, and have tried very hard to become "artists." Bad idea.

Brutal:

completely over produced, over thought, it's complete garbage. The lyrics make no sense, the music is some lame combination of the old blink into an emo/techno/abstract rock kind of style.

Wow:

Blink needs to stop morphing. Blink 182 started out as a melodic punk band with excellent tunes that were simple and most of the time easy to figure out and play, but great none the less. However, they took what was a great thing and could have been profitable (maybe not as much as they're profiting now, but still profitable) while still maintaining dignity and threw it away for a spot on TRL.

And:

Shut up and play, you little sissies. Blink 182 have seen their album sales decrease with every new album release, so they felt it was time to "mature." To Blink, maturity means whine and complain over now cliche "Mall Punk" guitars. I suppose if you are 14 years old and yer grounded for a week, this might be a decent enough. Wait, they have tattoos and lip piercings, so their music MUST be pretty tough, right? HA!

God, people are mean:

They need to change their band name. They are disgracing the music they made before and their original fan base.

What a trip!

Oooooooooooooh, wait, these are all comments about Blink-182's untitled album from 2003. My mistake!

 

Worlds greatest flag right there

 

Ok that was funny

 

More. Songs. About. Bangin. Dogs!

 

Let me guess you're here to spy on this thread for Mike J after he got booted from it

 

Really digging the song the more I hear it. However, I'm not sure it's going to catch on with radio like BTD did. I could see them releasing another song in the coming week. Maybe with album preorders.

 

Why is everyone concerned about the sales and financial standings of Blink? Do they know something we don't?
Whats Blinks IPO? lol

 

I haven't listened to the new song at all today! I'm proud of myself! I think I listened to it over 13 times yesterday, so I need to give it a break before I get sick of it.

 

I remember reading some friends’ music lists on MySpace back in the day and there was so much of “Blink-182 (the older stuff)”.

 

I’m on....23 since yesterday

 

Fall Out Boy (early stuff)

 

God this is gold. Permission to repost on Reddit Jason? This would be a great middle finger. Not going to link Chorus though.. don’t need them here.

 

Haha, go for it.

 

Please do and link here. It got me so good.

 

Haha I would love to read the responses to that ownage.

 

Hahaha. I got “got” too. I was like “ooh! Sick TRL reference...”

Is there a way to see plays on Apple Music on mobile? I feel I’m way far gone

 

CAPSULES | Blink-182 US

New stuff.

Not really digging the graffiti stuff myself.

No wonder....it’s youth stuff haha.

 

I posted it on the bands IG lol

Pretty accurate review.
