    I kinda already like this song more than a majority of California. Can't wait til this edition of Blink gets even more comfortable writing together.

    Might be Spider-Man...

    Also like how this is a bit more raw sounding from a production standpoint, I think it fits the song.

    Agreed, First Ditch Effort and See The Light were so goddamn good.

    Obviously I love Mark but I wish this was a Matt-only song, he fucking kills this
     
  5. I still listen to Hang, and really like the new LTJ EP too.

    Hang was great. and I like the new LTJ but just hasn't grabbed me yet I guess.

    I just can't un-hear 'Big Yellow Taxi.' Appreciate they're having fun and gelling but I'm missing the blink that really pushed the pop punk boat out.

    It's a cool throwback song. The na na nas almost ruined it. They are just annoying at this point.

    Whilst I love/d blink when they wrote about teenage stuff when I was younger. It just feels a little weird they are in their 40's writing these songs. It's a decent throwback song though even if the na na nas are getting a bit annoying now.

    And I think if you listen to the song, they're not writhing about teenage stuff, I feel like they're more writing about remembering teenage stuff...it's got that nostalgia feel. Anyone at that age starts remembering that stuff and feeling a pull to recapture those feelings. I think that's what we're hearing.

    This song rules. I have no idea how someone could love blink or pop-punk and not immediately love this.

    Its close to being a good song. It has some cool parts but just feels off.

    I love any talk of Counting Crows, even if it is just a comparison, but it makes me feel really old being the one to point out that Big Yellow Taxi is actually a Joni Mitchell song that Counting Crows covered.

    Yup immediately thought Duritz and Michelle Branch when that chorus hit. Decent track though.

    I only knew that, because I accidentally added the Joni mitchel version to my Spotify playlist, and didn't remember to take it off for 6 months :crylaugh:

    At least my autocorrect was consistent in misspelling Counting Crows twice!

    How is this different? Sure it's a little faster but they're still singing about suburbs and California.. lol.

    How tired and old.

    I'd rather get Neighborhoods pt. II

    Every Descendents album since Everything Sucks and after has great songs about the minutiae of aging.

    this is fun!
     
  24. for once i think Mark might be my favorite part of the song
     
  25. I hate to use that meme, but for real Feldmann is probably the one to blame for this. It's the same thing with the other bands he produces
