Cheerios4u98 Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Wow I'd never heard that either but it really is exactly the same. I'd say it's forgivable though because Cat Like Thief kicks that song's ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioactive tomdog Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 that's one of my favorite trio songs and cat like thief is my favorite bcr song....and i seriously can not hear the similarities between them at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 seems rather minor to me. but I see what you mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSandt Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Meh, that's just another riff Tom has recycled several times (Dick Lips, SOALG). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 decided to listen to the album after a long break. maaaaan its so good. Watch The World are probably Toms best lyrics IMO. His voice is also the shit. Especially in Tiny Voices "everybody will be let down" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decisions Posted June 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 Yeah this record is still fucking awesome. Really some of Tom's best work, I'd put it ahead of every Blink record except Dude Ranch and S/T. As far as that Trio comparison, it's interesting how the guitar part in CLT sounds like, the exact same as the bass line in So Far, but, I wouldn't say it's a blatant rip off, I mean that's just about the only similarity I can even find, there are plenty of different things about both songs, and I wouldn't say that group of chords is the only draw of the intro in either song anyway so...

Cheerios4u98 Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 I always wondered why Watch the World and There Is have the same drum part and are played in the same key. Is there supposed to be some connection between the songs? They aren't next to each other on the album or anything. They're just very similar. Love both of them.

Love both of them. in fairness the BCR record has a very samey sound track to track. thats not an insult actually, it's sonically the most cohesive album Tom has done. I've always been impressed by how well the tracks fit together and still have separate identities. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 it's very cohesive. I like how many songs begin with a drum beat. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raw_sounds Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 The only thing that bothers me about BCR is that it isnt a blink record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decisions Posted April 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 Rediscovered it again. I think this album is my favorite Blink-related work ever, at least for right now I can definitely say that. I would only call this and the self-titled masterpieces, but this album beats it for me because it's more focused, and frankly, more punk. The guitars are heavier, there are less effects to get in the way of the pop-punk/post-hardcore mixture of madness, and the subject matter is more interesting.

Would love it to happen, of course only after some crazy series of events occur that would cause me to believe that it would sound like the original album to a significant extent, and that Tom has his shit together. So you know...:/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
