I just want Tom to come back and end blink with 1 final record. Something thats very alt rock and energy driven. Let the band die on a good note. Thats all i fucking want. I know they have it in them. And they need someone to make it sound great. Not as muddy as 2011 blink but not as glossy as their latest work Feldman used compression like it's an instrument...jesus fuck

Made my own AVA record from the stuff tom has done between (2015-2016) 10 times more interesting than california or even older AVA work. Really enjoying it Also, 0:14 thats could turn into something good tho

Paramore's After Laughter is the best thing they ever released in my opinion. (Brand New Eyes and Self-Titled are close)

Damn really I've been batteling depression and what i want to do with my life and their lyrics (although they can get quite dark) have helped me very much. The songwriting is so honest, they keep evolving. But yeah opinions differ i guess. Outside of my love for blink, they are the only band i find interesting out of the whole poppunk/post hardcore/alternative scene. I find most poppunk bands and post hardcore alt bands to sound the same yet trophy eyes are really starting to get their own sound.

Can we please talk about what a good record this is. They became my favourite band in the whole alternative/poppunk/hardcore scene with Chemical Miracle but they really have matured. Songs you should check out: Autumn, Tip Toe, Lavender Bay, Miming In The Choir. Quite surprised nobody has been talking about this record around here.

Trophy Eyes - The American Dream

How fucking old are you?

Also, What happened with ''The next record will be more progressive and dark'' When did it become ''Yeah its like TOYPAJ''

I remember being so open and positive about blink with matt skiba. I was all for the three of them creating new progressive stuff within the blink range. I was even positive when cali and caliDLX came out...but i get such a ''Ugh'' feeling when i think of blink nowadays. I think they sound more shit now then they did with tom. We hated toms guitar tone yet skiba seems to top that. Feldman needs to go away, and both mark and matt should grow some balls and go for genuine greatness and artistic decision making. This version of blink burned out faster than the 2 times with tom.

I would love those rough mixes!!! Maybe it contains the Easy Target mix where mark sings a higher harmony over the chorus. ''Holly's looking dry, looking for an easy target!'' Sounded way cooler than the final thing. 7:03 !

American Idiot was a great record for that time and for green day...but lets face it Self-Titled wins just by ''Production'' alone. Just the way it sounds all together. Blink morphed into something new with that record. The lyrics, musical ideas and styles, Creative song changes, Different instrumental tones, For the first time you feel this gritty anger in their music, they used their voices in new ways. And nothing felt forced....just really natural. Funny enough i hated this record when i got introduced to blink. I found it messy.....i could not understand all the instrumental parts during Stockholm Syndrome's intro. It just sounded like a mess and so did other songs. Maybe my musical understanding wasn't developed like now or something. It has to be one of their best intro's ever, Weird they never really got that intro right when they played the song live i feel.

Feldman is 100% on coke Funny enough Skiba always seems to act like he really craves a line too.

will tom put out new music ever. It really seems like he is done for

The best mark ever looked was probably during 2004-2006 And i have always really liked this haircut, i't wouldn't work now though. The tan also helps though I think after summer 09 the aging started slowly and you could really see it by 2012. Meanwhile Jared Leto stays pretty much the same. Genetics are fascinating.

I loved this album during the age of 14-16 but i would never play that record again. Its catchy and it has good hooks but its such a teenage thing. Its like the power rangers series, Rather have my childhood memories on it than to rewatch an episode... You could say the same for Enema in terms of lyrical content but for some reason thats one of the only poppunk records that holds up at any age and still sounds great every damn year.
