Two thumbs up for the new Drug Church album, @Speedo have you listened to it?

141/174 From the Tom era I remembered everything except Up All Night, Fuck a Dog, Fuck Face and Boxing Day. From the Skiba era I only named 13 songs off California & Cali DLX and only 3 from Nine 😅 I also forgot about Not Another Xmas Song.

this morning i even turned the volume up while i was listening to all in my head, i never did that with OMT 😅

i love brand new's cover of the song

Love the title (Fahrenheit 451 is one of my favorite books) and love that Mark worked with Dan Ozzi, Sellout was such a good read a few years back. I'm really looking forward to this.

I don't want to sound like davey, but Zulu is a top 10 blink song. And when that cover of Hope came out in 2003, in the months leading up to the release of Untitled, it made me discovered Descendents and changed my life.

When Mark comes in with the higher pitch vocal WE FELL in love so well is so blink

Worse! I read that she is a rape apologist.

Buddha: 21 Days Cheshire Cat: Cacophony DR: A New Hope EOTS: Anthem/Aliens Exist TOYPAJ: Give Me One Good Reason Untitled: Feeling This Neighbourhoods: EISF Cali: BTD Nine: On Some Emo Shit OMT: Anthem Part 3

@Scott. 😂

I think something like this: 1. ANTHEM PT 3 2. DANCE WITH ME 3. FELL IN LOVE 4. ONE MORE TIME 5. MORE THAN YOU KNOW 6. WWWY 7. EDGING 8. BLINK WAVE 9. IF YOU NEVER LEFT 10. TURPENTINE 11. CAN'T GO BACK 12. OTHER SIDE

I didn't even notice that, it's not really a stretch!

What is it?

That was a really underwhelming meltdown tbh.

I deleted the post because I wrote it before going back to read all the back and forth about Take Me In and I saw that it was already pointed out, sorry

We know they use a live-auto tune on tour but he sounds just fine, I wish there was a way to get rid of that metallic tinge in the voice on the album because I love his voice, but it’s alright. I’d rather hear slightly off pitch vocals than flawless but metallic sounding ones. With Travis I think it’s more a stylistic thing though, like in all the modern hip hop stuff he listens to. Very electronic production, therefore electronic vocals.

the only thing i could do without is Mark's metallic voice, i can't believe there is no way to make him sound normal?

I'm obsessed with If You Never Left, the guitar at the end is pure Tom Delongeness.

No Fun & All In My Head = they feel like the belong to OMT (the actual album) – it doesn't matter if the lyrics aren't too great, these songs are catchy, loud, fun and pretty much in your face like all the other songs on OMT. "Can't Go Back" to "Take Me In" is where I think this new batch of songs feel cohesive as a whole, those six songs don't sound like random b-sides, they all have a toned down vibe, the bass and guitar are kind new wavey, and they bring nothing but good energy. Can't Go Back = perfect song. Every Other Weekend = feels like it's straight out of Neighbourhoods and blink is pushing their "Cure" influences. The funny thing about The Cure is that their gloom can be as heavy as their joy is bright and buoyant, and blink are just the same, they can really do both things as well and when they do it, it works. Everyone Everywhere = it was very alienating on the first listen because of the odd pacing, but it got better this morning. I think the last minute is what makes it a good one. Is this the sister song of Terrified? If You Never Left = my favorite song. It has that kind of melody only blink can make. Mark's bridge rocks. This song just makes me happy. One Night Stand = I really like the nostalgic vibe, Mark and Tom sharing the song, the ending with all the vocal layers and the BTD kind of intro. Take Me In = it's way better than Childhood, such a solid epilogue for an album that has brought a lot of emotions out of me. Are there modern production aspects I'm not so fond of? sure... but to have these dudes, loving each other again and making these tunes full of joy and melancholy at the same time is everything to me. The problem now is that it feels like the dad who left to get milk 20 years ago is back to stay so if blink breaks up again it will really crush me.

After a second listen I can say for sure that I love the new songs - my first impression is that they all have a mellow, retro sound, but at the same time it's just feel good music. It's great when new blink songs get to be a small part of our day and uplift our mood. Best song: If You Never Left

i just finished listening, this is a "light blink-182 EP" to me and i'm all here for it 🥹

Until a couple of hours ago I didn't even know that all the new songs are coming out on Spotify in a couple of hours, I thought the release date was September 14th lol I'm so excited now and I really looking forward to listening!!

GOOSEBUMPS. This song always made me cry when I was young 🥲

I keep hearing Fell in Love on the radio in the wild and I’m always shocked but it also makes me happy. Italy is a crazy place, they’ve been playing this song on the radio since October 2023, it’s got more airtime than Feeling This 😂
