There are countless examples of blink having lyrics that don't pierce into your soul. Been over this a thousand times. If you don't like it, move on, there will be more albums. If you don't like albums with Matt or Feldmann, then listen to something else.

It's not meeting in the middle if all of them agreed that it was best that they worked fast and not over-analyze things on that album. What's dumb is acting like the recording process on ONE album is the end all be all existence of blink-182.

Untitled was written in their prime, pre-Tom mental health issues. Now Tom isn't even in the band. They wanted to try another album like that, renting a house, and Tom flew the coop. From all accounts, the album they are currently working on is being approached differently than California. Not every album has to be done exactly the same. And what worked in 2003 with a different lineup is not guaranteed to be the right approach 15 years later.

It's well known that Mark was stuck overthinking songs and lyrics, tinkering with them until they died a slow death. It's not surprising that they went with a "first thought, best thought" mentality this time around. Especially since they were going for a simpler, classic blink sound.

Hard to keep up with the complaints!

Especially when we all know if they tried to "look young" they would be torn down for trying to look young and not accepting their age. A sad and pathetic lot here, but you gotta play the hand you're dealt.

And if he got hair plugs or something ya'll would call him fake and desperate to stay relevant. he's almost 47. at least he isn't wearing cheap suits with a beer belly popping out at a UFO convention.

Key words were "try to". You'll have to come harder to land a blow. The "weird" harassment was one of your weaker efforts actually. Maybe circle back to the geography/cultural insults? potential to strike a nerve there if you're mean enough

How dare he make friendly posts with the band he is currently writing and recording with!

3-5 minute search, tops. I remember because I found it so weird that you would harass me for using such a common word. Now you can't stop saying it.

What's more weird is that you used to try to bully me for using the word "weird" too often. See exhibits below. You've now used the word 7 times in the last 2 days

The Deluxe? No, I have always enjoyed it for what it is, a nice accompaniment to California for the fans. Nothing ground breaking, but I'm glad it exists

WMAA and ATST were tailored radio hits at the peak of their popularity with record label funded videos meant for teens who watch MTV. The Deluxe disc is an accompaniment to California (the album they wrote in their 40s without one of the founding members) that had no singles or songs intended for anything beyond bonus consumption.

Sounds like a good time to me

Wow, those are definitely paid actors. And what's up with Mark jumping around, did the label pay you to let them alter this video?
