Tom doing lead vocals on the chorus is interesting, Mark unable to hit the notes maybe?

The Official, Comprehensive Blink-182 Timeline
Low Value Boy replied to boxelder's topic in Blink 182
I had a PM this morning from him telling me I had severe autism and am a fat ass loser with 18,000 posts. Just ignored it but thought I'd call it out here as further evidence. -
Def gonna be getting a day ticket for this. Reading Festival weekend was my thing from the ages of 18-24 but I don't think I could do the whole weekend camping at 36...

Weekly Song Discussion - "Sometimes" (Buddha)
Low Value Boy replied to boxelder's topic in Blink 182
Love this song, was always a favourite of mine off Cheshire Cat. Grabs you by the balls straight, short and sweet. -
Just never got why this song is such a fan favourite in all honesty. Buddha just sounds pretty awful to me now, all the good songs on it made it to Cheshire Cat where they are recorded at a better quality so I never feel the need to listen to Buddha or this song. For me there is a reason why 21 Days didn't make the cut...

One More Time… Official Discussion (Constant Tug and Nut)
Low Value Boy replied to Kay's topic in Blink 182
I continue to dip in and out of tracks but haven't listened to it in its entirety since about a week after it came out. I will dip in and listen to a few tracks every day though still so it certainly has more lasting power than NINE and Cali did. -
It's a great album but the production lets it down slightly, it doesn't make it unlistenable for me but drums being a little bit quieter and bass/guitar being higher would improve the listening experience for me. The idea that questioning the production is something we shouldn't do is also strange. A lot of us have played in bands, recorded music and listened to thousands of albums - of course you're going to pick up on these things, even if you're not a professional audio engineer. It's like saying you can't critique or assess how good a football player (or the sport of your choosing) is if you've never played professionally yourself, ridiculous logic.

Blink are just a band that you either get or you don't, tied up in huge nostalgia for a lot of people as well. We seem them as like a part of our lives and have grown up with them. I bought my first Blink album in 1999/2000 when I was 12/13 and I'm still here posting on a Blink-182 message board at 36. I can fully get why the average person who is just listening to OMT objectively as a casual wouldn't be blown away by it.

They always play the O2 in London and do two dates of 20,000 that sell out literally instantly, they could easily sell out a London stadium (range between 60-100,000) and would also probably stop the reseller issue as there will be more available for the real fans to get them early doors rather than them selling out in seconds and then people then feeling like they have to pay triple the price to go because they can't miss out.
-
Will be 5-6 songs absolute maximum from this album in their new set - there is just to much gold in their discography and there will always be a need to appeal to the more casual Blink fan as well. Unless they start playing 30 songs rather than 25 which I just don't see happening.
-
It's fine, you got an inferior Blink-182 live experience to me - accept it and move on!
-
This is mental, I get it's not a Blink show so some people might be casuals but that crowd looks fucking so dead. Dance With Me was such a hit at the London show I was at, you could barely hear Tom over the crowd during the chorus.
-
Occasionally mixes it up by listening to the Lemmings 7" demo as well.

Blink Wave Track Discussion
Low Value Boy replied to Bucko's topic in One More Time Track-by-Track Discussion Forum
I AM LITERALLY WANKING EVERY 5 MINS OVER THAT CHORD CHANGE IN CHORUS 2 AND CHORUS 3. It's so basic and cliche TD but I fucking love it haha. -
Zane Lowe Interview Official Discussion Thread
Low Value Boy replied to Monkey Chips's topic in Blink 182
No fucking chance was the Skiba era Blink, it was in name but that's where it ends for me. I don't blame Skiba either though, he was dealt a rough hand (although probably made some serious $$$) - was a poisoned chalice, everything happens for a reason though and I think seeing that bastardised +Skiba4 band has made me appreciate this new era even more so it's all good with me. -
Anthem Part 3 track discussion
Low Value Boy replied to Bucko's topic in One More Time Track-by-Track Discussion Forum
I'd fucking love a run of Anthem, Anthem Part 2 and Anthem part 3 at a live show. The original Anthem is criminally underrated and it's a travesty that it hasn't been played live that much. -
Reckon dropping this at the same time as the new Blink album is a sly/subtle dig/flex?

Terrified Track Discussion
Low Value Boy replied to Bucko's topic in One More Time Track-by-Track Discussion Forum
I feel like I'm missing something with this one, everyone seems to LOVE it. Don't get me wrong, it's a decent song but I think it's one of the worst on the album from my first few listens - might be a grower though... -
Blink Wave Track Discussion
Low Value Boy replied to Bucko's topic in One More Time Track-by-Track Discussion Forum
I fucking love this song, so so good. Classic Delonge chord progression on the second chorus (that isn't on the shorter first chorus) that really really fucking hits, so good. It's like Blink, New Order and AVA all rolled into one. -
Anthem Part 3 track discussion
Low Value Boy replied to Bucko's topic in One More Time Track-by-Track Discussion Forum
I knew this song was going to be great, could just tell from the snippet from the Zane Lowe interview preview - certainly lived up to expectations as well! -
At what point did I show any sign that I wasn't calm? it was just a question that I now have an answer too. I am fully aware how the internet works but thank you for your concern!
-
Normally there is a countdown a couple days before on YouTube when a video is being released on there and there isn't anything... I imagine this might be an Apple Music/Zane Lowe exclusive?
-
Sorry if this has been asked but is the only way to listen to this on Apple Music?
