Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 1066

Thanks listening now

 

Slow day today :/

 

Maybe they'll formally announce it in a few weeks with a song.

 

Or sooner!

 

I cannot WAIT for our alternate track list order battles after the deluxe edition comes out!

For real

 

I'll probably just leave it as Original List/Deluxe Songs. Because I'm boring and I'm used to the order of tracks 1-17(including hey im sorry)

 

I feel like blink does a pretty good job with the track list. The only album I think they did it poorly was Neighborhoods, other than that album I wouldn't really change them much if at all.

 

You have a point. Heck I don't even thing they did the list from neighborhoods badly

 

I think starting Ghost was an interesting choice, it doesn't feel like an opening track to me. I think ending the album with 4 weak tracks in This Is Home, MH, Love is Dangerous and Gravity hurts the album a lot. I love Even If She Falls but again like Ghosts it doesn't feel like a good closer. Album is very top heavy to me.

 

Never really thought about what a weak stretch that is. It's pretty bad lol

 

Yup probably the worst stretch in any blink album other than Buddha and Cheshire Cat.

 

It is. Although I admit I actually enjoy MH.

 

Its an ok song but it just screams filler song to me. You can tell that only Mark worked on it and I wouldn't be surprised if he even did the guitar tracking on it too.

 

He probably did. Yeah I may not enjoy it as much as After Midnight, Natives, Even if She Falls, Hearts all Gone, Ghost, Wishing well and Up All Night but it gets fair amount of play from me. more play from me then Snake charmer, and the other 3 of that stretch.

 

Yeah I would probably take it over Snake Charmer and those 3 also.

 

We seem to agree a lot

 

Id say he played guitar on it... The guitar tone/playing/production sounds as bad as it did on the +44 album

 

Acutally Mark did a great job with playing a guitar on (+44) album.
MH is a filler song, even the title name of the song is lazy. I liked the lyrics a lot, but the song is too generic.

 

Yeah MH is a song I should've liked but never did. Seemed b-sidey to me. One of the 3-4 I skip on Neighbour

 

Im gonna have it as separate albums on my iTunes/phone.
California and California (deluxe) (or if that give it a cool name)
And had I'm sorry at track 17 but will delete it and have it swing over to its rightful spot on the Deluxe.
Did the same with Biffy Clyro ones

 

If I remember right, they hadn't come up with a name and mark had the song saved on his computer with that name (initials and date he recorded) and Tom was like "Lawl it sounds like a virus codename is kewl leave it like that." So they did. ProbAbly so Tom could be like "I did something!"

 

Same, but if I can got in on a physical cd it'll go California-CalifoniaDeluxe

 

Correct. Remember reading this. I think when the album came out there was a track x track commentary and this was written in it

 

Or he couldn't be bothered to help come up with a better name than "Hold On" which is what Mark was going to call it before Tom stepped in.

 

Sometimes I still listen to the Neighborhoods commentary on Spotify
