decisions Posted December 31, 2017 Report Share Posted December 31, 2017 Is it OK to say yet that New World shits all over everything on California? Song kinda rips tbh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may really dislike California, but New World is fucking awful, as is basically all of the demos odds and ends record. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toms work on odds and ends is better than most of California , Tom as a lyricist and guitar player is leagues above that of Matt skiba in blink, Matt skiba in alkaline trio. On the other hand is like night and day , wish it had transcribed over into the new blink 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoltan Posted December 31, 2017 Report Share Posted December 31, 2017 i'm glad tom's so-called demos are not associated with blink at all. those songs are extremely awful. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vic vinegar Posted December 31, 2017 Report Share Posted December 31, 2017 I personally think Golden Showers fits in perfectly with the theme blink used on their last album. It's not a good theme. Or a good album. At all. That's why it fits so perfectly together. It truly would've been blink's worst record, though probably more manageable than the Cali we ended up getting. That said, I do like Animals. Probably about as much as I like Left Alone or Hey I'm Sorry. So there's that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decisions Posted December 31, 2017 Report Share Posted December 31, 2017 All of the songs besides the three singles are messes, but even those have a few interesting ideas that could've been worked into something cool. They're demos. Of the three singles, Circle-Jerk Pit and Invisible Parade also have a feeling of incompleteness, but they are still more interesting and melodically/rhythmically sound than nearly all of California. New World is just a great song, I mean I don't really see what's not to like about it if you're a Blink fan aside from some personal thing against Tom. First of all it's more raw/organic sounding than anything Blink has done since 2003. Like it's more punk than Neighborhoods. It's fast, it's jumpy, the drums are fucking sick (love the snare changes during the last chorus to make the guitars/vocals really slam), but most of all the whole song just sits in that range of melody that people associate with Tom DeLonge's best moments. Like the build to the chorus is just a great punk melody. I don't know what else people would want/expect from Tom. Sure the lyrics aren't great, but like, that doesn't really ruin it for me at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheerios4u98 Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Sup blink section. Anything interesting happening with the band in the past few months since I last checked? I'm guessing no. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. But Tom made the rounds on the internet when that ufo coverage/secret government program got declassified a couple weeks back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knapppers Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 I will never understand how people dont like New World. It sounds very in line with what modern blink would sound like. Could easily be one of the best songs on neighbourhoods. Just imagine if mark and travis got to help. New World, An Endless Summer and Suburban Kings are all great. New World shits all over California. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 New World with Mark and Travis' influence added would have been an amazing song. I like it as is, but it would have killed as a real blink song, if the band was ever willing to actually work on songs together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoltan Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 new world is a shitty song. it has everything i hate about tom's new style, and there's nothing likable in it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 The only song I can stomach from Odds and Ends is The Invisible Parade and it's still pretty damn weak. I liked Animals but I just straight up know it's awful and don't actually know why I like it. the rest is pure crap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thongrider Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Animals is nice, but I never listen to it. I think Endless Summer and Suburban Kings are catchy enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
