  1. Could someone PM me the link as well?
  2. The iTimeBomb. It's just a time bomb made by Apple.
  3. Yeah... this site isn't credible source for actual news. It really just looks like a conspiracy news aggregator. As always, check the source of information. A lot of the postings on there are just YouTube videos that people put up. Mainstream media is quite limited in credibility these days, but it's still a notch above some nutjob in Nebraska posting about aliens or Sasquatch. But I digress. An odd site.
  4. I was in a packed house full of Tom Bots of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I thought the movie was good but the Q&A and live performances were cringeworthy. As soon as Tom's voice started on the live performance, about 50% of the theatre began laughing immediately. For a split second, I felt bad for Tom. I mean, these are his more diehard fans, and they're making fun of him. But then I remembered he's an egotistical multimillionaire that is only doing this to himself. I laughed pretty hard too. And when it was all said and done and the lights came back on, I wondered how much this project had directly delayed progress on Neighborhoods over the past two or so years.
  5. For $200 bucks, knowing how Tom is at meet & greets, it oughta include fucking dinner.
  6. I remember reading an article when they had just reunited and were beginning rehearsals for the US reunion tour, and they were practicing a cover of New Order's "Ceremony." I think that's such a perfect song for them to cover. A cover or two would be cool. They've done such a good job with covers I think. "Hope" comes to mind...
  7. I agree. I think this is a Critter heavy song. Which is fine with me. Jerry might have adjusted the structure, but as far as the quality goes, I think the engineers did a fine job. Chris Holmes does a lot of work on a LOT of great records. I think as far as production goes, it's a matter of taste, but the engineering is objectively good.
  8. Love it. As a fan, it's everything I hoped it would be and more.
  9. Before I listen to this song that I, along with all of my fellow blink-182 fans, have been waiting to hear for so so long, I'm going to pause and reflect on these last eight years. Everything that has happened to the guys in this band--the breakup, the interviews surrounding the breakup, the No It Isn't demo, the first AVA album, the (+44) album, the AVA documentary, the himynameismark podcasts, the plane crash, the Mark blog where he wrote about talking to Tom again. The Grammy's, the first time we stayed up all night for Up All Night, those first two shows in Vegas, the deaths of DJ AM & Jerry Finn... this has all led up to this. We've followed them closely and listened to their side projects and podcasts and tv shows all in an attempt to chase that feeling we get when we hear blink-182. For too long there was no blink-182 to hear, but here we are. The start of a new era. We get to have that feeling again. At least for a little while longer.
  10. holy god damn shit? hugging gays down south? holding gary's dick sucks? ...sorry. Annnd survey says... Hugging gays down south. That one's my favorite.
  11. sorry dude but when you're trying to explain something make sure you know your stuff. holmes as a studio engineer oversees the recording process and makes sure everything gets recorded as good as possible. but i bet they still use another professional producer who gives them a hand on finding the best micing situations / sounds and even helps them in terms of song structures. by the way that's what jerry finn used to do before he died. AFTER that the recorded tracks get send to a professional mixing engineer. he's the guy who mixes and eqs everything perfectly. in case of most high budget rock productions these days this would be one of the lord-alge brother (chris or tom). and after THAT the mixed tracks get send to the mastering studio where again someone else (but NOT the lord-alges as they are mixers) masters the tracks to fit all together on the final album. meaning that guy makes sure all tracks have the same level and just kinda sound like they fit on the same cd together. then this masterd version of all tracks is ready to be released. i hope this clears up all the questions on the whole recording process once and for all This is correct. Often the producers and engineers of an album (in this case blink-182 and Chris Holmes/Critter, respectively) will hand the songs over to a mixer who hasn't been working in the studio because he can lend fresh, unbiased, and objective ears to the songs. Finally the mastering process where they will sequence and author the disc/files themselves.
