Cum Back Tom

Yes.

Oh man, I thought we were insufferable at times. Everyone is an audio engineer/professional producer now that we have interwebs. @JarJarBlinks, Reddit will scare you back here, I promise.

Unlike me? Grimes made an album on Garage band that took off, as will I. You just wait and see Coight. I don't forget those that helped me along the way on my #journey.

Some of our board producers explain this to me. How much further do we have to go? From my limited knowledge, mixing takes a while, could be another month before the things finished? Are professionals faster at this than me mixing on garage band or are they slower and more precise and take longer?

I was alive in 2009, and while I was heavily into listening to Neighborhoods and DED every day in college, I can tell you I was stomach sick and uncomfortable listening to them on Leno or w.e their first appearance was back then. I remember thinking they had completely changed and were tired, slow, and duller live, but I still listened to NH every day. I remember it definitely being more a downbeat time.. Definitely feels like a different time, it's not close. I've felt Tom has completely changed since Dream Walker/Chasing Shadows, and then again with Rebel Girl tbh. That was such a different 'I'm old now and over my pretentious shit' vibe to me. And Tom's in or outness is what dictates blink.

Obviously we felt things in 2009...just like every iteration of Blink is going to be different in its own right. Even Self Titled era, I feel as do many, was way different from anything prior, band chemistry and musically. We just were ready for that 'darker' change and tension at the time. I think most of us are happy it's back to lighthearted blink between them all. Like I said, they feel like 8/10 prime early 2000s blink, back to having fun and enjoying themselves while also being super famous and taking advantage of that with ridiculous levels of dick joke humor. 8/10 because they simply are old and will never be the exact same after all the turmoil. But, they are also old in the sense they seem past it, and having a real 'comeback' and final (in my guess) hurrah. Preaching to like the 2 people that don't get this. Also, they sound like shit on that STFK. Fucking horrible, forgot how bad they were live in NH era.

This feels way different than Neighborhoods era. I love Neighborhoods, because I'm a hip little bitch, but this is way different. Neighborhoods was essentially its own extension of blink - bleak/AvA rooted/different/tension still existed but to the side a bit/tired/but unique. This feels like 8/10 prime blink, friends again, hatchets buried, having fun again, but older

Lol this was such a good promo. Excited for what's ahead. They still got it, surprisingly.

I kind of feel that way too. I don't listen to Self Titled as much anymore, but it blew my mind and lasted me well over a decade. I listened to California for 3 months. A good record is worth it. Still don't need to drag it out as far as - releasing another song during the hype - after Edging.

Like i've said, I'm not super disappointed in the fake expectations/timelines we threw on, even if they encouraged it a little bit, the internet made it way more. But this does reek of Rebel Girl/K&T Lifeforms cycle, which was super annoying and that was fucking AVA. So, not a fan of that Tom timeline stuff, but not a fan the Mark/Travis hoopla churn stuff out within a month either. The record will need to speak for itself, but the stretched timeline only adds some pressure for it to be good. Lifeforms was fine, but it never was going to live up to the expectations of 2 year + wait and grow tired of it all by then anyways. Like it's just music at the end of the day, 4 minute songs, not 3 hour feature length movie. We don't want to get overhyped for just a couple palm mutes than a chorus on a handful of songs expecting a big orchestra now.

Aw man. Yeah, those are almost 1000% always lies. Reddit is really to blame. They keep circulating dumb shit.

I don't think we're getting a new single today. I'm not bent out of a shape, but I am shocked. I thought somewhere along the ways someone confirmed we were getting a new single every month until October or a reputable source at least said this?

Damn dude, I'm a pretty harsh critic of your cum humor. But that profile pic is funny.

That would be self-referencing then - fans to Tom.

I hope Diddy saved the group text, but I was planning to come down (was just waiting on closest ticket to pop up) then Oliver 'found out' he had the wrong tickets once he got to Chicago. There's tons of texts with time tables and pictures of him driving in the car.. This lie could get deep. I'm more sympathetic on Diddy, he was eager to meet, I hadn't left yet. Although he did just take 3 days to text me back like a lil bitch.

I think 1 more album after this and a small tour at most. I'm not seeing this longevity thing. It feels like a glorious return and finale. They'll have enough money to retire after this tour my guess.

For a larper, you're not very historically accurate.

Shit dude..my cousin is actually in town tomorrow and he's allergic to people so if you wouldn't mind.. I'd be happy I guess to meet maybe November or something 2027 I'm a little more free try then..

Denver is so much better than Boston, it's crazy. They deserve this. Even though I love MIA.

I just got to 500,000 in Who Wants To Be A Millionaire online.

Tic Tacs like the mints?

This is punk rock. Fuck a due date.

Oliver bailed on me for Chicago show. Diddy just bailed on me for Detroit meet up. This isn't good for my self esteem guys. But I don't think it's me after speaking with my therapist. She says the cool blink members need to just live closer to me, instead of the turds. 🖕
