Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 1333

Or that they kept putting a letter of the alphabet on their album covers?

 

Enema came out when I was 2 years old so I don't have strong memories of its release obviously but I found the album when I was 14 and have quite literally played it over 100 times.

Going Away to College >>>

 

yesss! i thought that was the coolest thing

 

I can't believe Enema came out 18 years ago. I can't believe I'm turning 30 this weekend. I can't believe it's 2017 and Blink 182 are still one of the biggest rock n' roll acts around.
But most importantly, I can't believe I was only 12 years old when I was sitting in my bedroom shouting "GOT A LOT OF HEARTACHE HE'S A FUCKING WEASEL."

Damn, time flies.

 

Mark used to use that as his screen name in the "Spaulding's Tree House" chat room. Also, does anyone remember the Atticus Bat Phone?

 

1) Back when Kathy Griffin was a more innocent person.
2) Live Blink was a roll of the dice in the late 90's/early 00's.
3) DJ Skribble was a name I didn't think I'd ever hear again.
4) Diddy sighting at the end?
5) I'm old.

 

Listening to Enema again and always think about how the album is tracked perfectly. I can't think of any songs I would switch around. Just a great pace and the songs just flow naturally.

 

Gotta have the porcupine in here.

 

Man, the Urethra Chronicles 1 and 2 got me through Junior High and High School, haha. My friends and I watched UC1 so often that we pretty memorized it.

 

18 years and it's still relevant. Shows how solid a record it is.

 

Damn, me too. Just did the math.

 

What's My Age Again?

 

Enema of the State definitely changed my life for the better. I'm so thankful for that album.

 

I feel like whenever I start listening to EOTS, it's over before it even starts. Such a fast fun album with each song being a banger. It's only like 36 mins, right?

 

Think Enema is as close to a perfect album as it comes for me. Can't think of a single thing I'd change about it.

 

Enema may not be their best album, but it's influence is undeniable. True game changer. Plus, how iconic is that album cover?..

 

Hell yeah. I still laugh at the part where Tom is talking about aliens and Mark says that Tom can bring him all the evidence in the world and he'll just look at Tom and say "Nah I don't believe it" just to make him mad.

Really wish we got UC3 from the footage Cheetah recorded during the Untitled album sessions.

 

blink-182 - Live in San Diego 7-25-2000 (Private Radio Show REMASTERED).zip

I remastered this bootleg too. It's one of my favorite Blink performances. Hilarious banter, MTATS era, small crowd, good recording. I hope you guys like the remaster of it. The original version is on YouTube, if you want to look it up to compare. Enjoy!

 

I'd change the blatant misogyny.

 

EOTS came out when I was 5. Even so, I listened to it every car ride to every store or hockey practice from 5-10 years old. My older brothers were into blink and my Mom allowed me/us to listen (somehow!).

There's no doubt it was the first album I ever heard and will always, always be very important to me.

 

The production on Enema is my favorite. It's perfect without going overboard and it's aged well. I've always thought the production on it was timeless.

 

Jerry was such a genius. I remember my band was recording at a pretty famous spot for local bands here in southern CA called love juice. This was in 2005. The vocal booth was all tagged up from all the bands that had recorded there. Then there was a section just praising Jerry Finn. That's where I signed.

 

Your band wouldn't be Linkin Parke would it?

 

That was the scariest 3 min ever. I didn't know when the forum would be back on!!!
