  1. Same. I didn‘t think i could care this much again
  2. I‘m not even arguing that the sum record will take longer to record… it‘s just your argumentation that is utter nonsense
  3. Nah man. Bunch of nonsense… This isn‘t science or math my guy
  4. if tom struggles so much to play guitar correctly live, how does that equal to you in him needing less time to lay down a great take? Why would it take longer to record 8 different chords than the same 4 chords twice? Why would it take longer to track a 4 minute song with different time signatures than a 4 minute song in 4/4? if sum41 are much more capable on their instruments they should need less time to record… You make no sense
  5. Most double albums have only one album worth of good material anyway. The rest is filler/trash
  6. Still a shit take tbh. Some bands write and record an album in a week, some bands take 2 years for that. Has nothing to do with complexity. It is not comparable i would argue it takes more time to write good music with fewer elements. It would also take a „more skilled“ band less time/takes to get things right, don‘t you think?
  7. I think it was important to keep the band going with skiba for tom to return. If they would‘ve broken up the band entirely it might would‘ve been much harder to get the band going again at this point. the music from that era can get in the fucking bin though
  8. one of, if not the best track from the skiba era, don't need to hear it live with tom though.. the setlist is limited and there are a lot of other tom/mark songs i would prefer they played.
  9. Apparently blink are getting paid 4million for their gig tonight. Good for them, i guess, but that number is insane!

    Mark Vs Tom

    Mark writes much better lyrics, tom writes the catchiest melodies overall i enjoy tom‘s songs more
  11. i never see ads either.. i don't have an adblocker installed
  12. if fucking knew it was you, orange misfit
  13. as you should. i fucking adore my tube amp
  14. i absolutely get that. a lot of the newer livestreams sound bland in comparison to older streams. the way amps work and how they need to be mixed has changed. a lot of people mixing those live-streams are treating the signal the same as 20 years ago. Mixing mic'd amps has been perfected for half a century. good modellers are still a relatively new technology the sonic chaos and muddy-ness of the amp-days has it's charm as well, and many people(including myself) miss that. but it's not that the new technology can't match the quality. it's that the new technology erased a lot of problems and need to be treated differently. it's a similiar story with vinyl/tape. People in the 80's would've killed to get rid of the noisefloor/saturation and inconsistency. nowadays, some people tend to miss it, degrade their recordings on purpose (which is absolutely fine!)
  15. as for the sound, i'm 100% sure 99.9% of the crowd wouldn't notice. The guy at JHS pedals ( a boutique Pedal manufacturer from the US) has a huge youtube channel for gearnerds and swapped out his tube amp with a kemper for over a year without telling (in an attempt to troll) and nobody of the "tone-experts" even noticed
  16. it makes absolutely no sense for any touring band to use real amps live unless they have an endorsement with some brand. or they prefer the look, think it's cool. touring tube amps are always at risk of breaking, they're loud as fuck on stage so they constantly bleed in the vocal mics and make the mix muddy, they are much more inconsistent etc.... it's also ridiculous these days to drive a shitton of amps through the country/world when you could use something as big as a handbag and is more reliable and consistent. a small band playing club shows with people right up to the stage and a small PA system is a different story, but even then it makes much more sense in a lot of situations i would also argue that a modeller/profiler sounds much better at the gig itself-> running through big speakers compared to livestreams/liverecordings....
  17. mark and tom were waiting behind the stage for their big comeback and travis was filming cringe instagram content with kourtney. travis can get in the fucking bin.
  18. Everbody is hyped and getting along, here comes diddy trying to squeeze out a „i told you so“ moment. nobody ever said travis is a shit drummer. Was it great to have the three of them on that stage? Absolutely. Would it been different with another drummer? Of course, but not worse than the show not happening at all. i don‘t see the point in arguing about this other than forcing drama
  19. Critter also died, they really went through a lot
  20. Blink is one of the biggest bands in a genre that relies probably the most on heavy studio doctoring besides radio pop. I don‘t see an issue with them using some pitch-correction live. i think people over estimate what auto-tune can do. You have to sing quite decent for it to sound good, it‘s no voodoo magic
  21. Favourite part has got to be marks look of joy when tom goes nuts on guitar on the outro of i miss you. He really can‘t believe its happening, so pure
  22. Still buzzing… doesnt seem real
  23. lol, the cranked up auto-tune on first date was great
  24. damn this is the best blink sounded live in two decades. great comeback
