  1. 1. They've been touring the US for almost 20 years 2. The US as a whole has 110million+ more people than Brazil. Larger opportunity for fans... 3. Over 99% of the populations main language spoken is Portuguese in Brazil, not English . (but music is a universal language blah blah blah, w/e ) Just to name a few reasons... But if you'd like to contest that Brazil has more Blink fans than The US, go for it. But umadbro? Really? says the guy with a picture of himself in a bear costume smoking a cigarette. Real cool, bro. Oh and The Offsprings lead singer called, he wants his hair bleach back.

  3. you're an ignorant motherfucker. and ps, that shit hole country recently got the 2016 olympics over Chicago. i was gonna call him ignorant aswell earlier, but I couldnt be bothered lol. Brazil also got the 2014 Soccer World Cup (second biggest sports event after the Olympics). blink goes to countries where the fan base is much lower than in Brazil... Blink doesn't go to countries with smaller fan bases... The U.S. has a FAR larger fan base than Brazil.
  4. No its not. I don't remember the last time Mark achieved Fame and fortune with a girl who fucked him over. Marks been married for over 10 years. Highly unlikely he is writing about some girl who fucked him over. Didn't you at some point speculate that Skye might be a "golddigger"? "But you only care about fame and fortune" is a stereotypical reference to a beautiful but bad girl. Hey I got it; maybe this song reflects Mark's subconscious hatred of Skye, who married Mark for "fame & fortune". "Watching others tortured" would refer to Skye forcing Mark to move to snobby, degenerate London. "Let's drink ourselves to death" obviously refers to Mark subconsciously wanting to commit suicide because this golddigging she-devil is sucking all the joy out of Mark's life. Seriously people, Mark & Tom might seem gay on stage but they're not really gay enough to refer to each other as "you seemed so sweet at the start...". This is retarded. This is like Charles Manson infamously (mis)interpreting a Beatles song. lol i like how your homophobia/bigotry drives your reasoning for the song not being about Tom. Saying another guy was "sweet at the start" is not gay. Plus, even if it is about Tom (no one knows for sure), he's not going to make it TOO obvious. It has to mean something to other people as well...Basically the entire +44 album is about Tom, but there are still references to girls all over the place. this is so weird. some people really can't handle a discussion that damages their cute little fan boy fantasy assumptions. No, you idiot. Myself and the countless others are telling you to lock this topic for being retarded.
  5. Did I know Blink were getting back together before you? Yes.
  6. Mark got paid "BANK" from an Australian band with little to no money and a very, very small fan base? Ok... And Aria, I don't love this band. However, Mark and I probably do have a lot more in common with the bands that we like/would like to see grow than the ones you like.
  7. Completely unexpected and really rad. Discuss. Edit - There wasn't a youtube link up yet as the Album just leaked last night.
  8. I usually skip this song after the 2nd verse. Instrumentally, the verses are the most fun to listen to. Especially if you have a system built for an audiophile like myself. Marks bass that hits super hard during 10 notes of each verse is the best part of the entire song. You won't REALLY be able to experience/grasp the full effect unless you have a Very $$$$Expensive$$$$ sound system. Chorus is just mehhh.
  9. Even If She Falls sounds the most AVA-ish, but you know Mark was like "Don't even think about going Whoaaaaaa ohh ohhh ohh ohhhhoahhhh woahhhhhh all over this song, mother fucker." Oh and Snake Charmer has a lot of "Box Car Racer - All Systems Go" sound to it.
  10. Not my favorite song, but I think my single favorite moment of the entire album is the moment the snare kicks in at the start of HAG, where the song breaks from slow, introspective instrumental to FUCKYOUPUNKROCKSONGTIMEYYAAAAAAA!!!!! The intro makes SO much more sense with the interlude on it!! hahahah - Totally agree about the "where the song breaks from slow, introspective instrumental to FUCKYOUPUNKROCKSONGTIMEYYAAAAAAA!!!!!" I think that's exactly how Mark sees it too.
  11. HAG Interlude and HAG should be one IMO. With that said... HAG(album version) wins for me. Kaleidoscope gets a close 2nd.
  12. Live version is actually better. . . Kinda disappointed with the studio version. . .
  13. Knew this the first time I heard it live. On-and-off people will never be considered audiophiles.
  14. N*ggas in Paris is hands down the most fun song on the album.
  15. I will be the first to say it... This is definitely a song recorded through his Orange cabs - Straight up Werewolves fucking bass going on in this. #ItsAMusicThing/#ToThoseWithEclecticEarsNoticeThisWithoutPeopleTellingThem
  16. No. Command the A literally translates to "Command+A" on a Mac. Mark was talking to those with Macs. It's 2011. PC is fucking out. Mac's FUCKING IN. chill out dude i dont have a mac so I had to hit ctrl A, whats the difference and you bring this up from the like the first fucking page. You don't watch Kenny Powers/Eastbound And Down, do you?

  18. I Dug it. It feels somewhat AVA/BCR/Sum41ish, but obviously they made it their own. 1080p YouTube rip anyone?
  19. Saw it. Liked it. Way better than X3 or Wolverine. However the TV spots saying it's up there with 'The Dark Knight' - Yeah fucking right. It doesn't come close to TDK or Iron Man for that matter. Still a great summer movie. Marvel is 2 for 2 so far this year. Don't fail me now, Captain America.

    Bon Iver

    After other fees, it's like 40 bucks a ticket. Which is rather steep for a guy with one album and a new one on the way. Put it this way, I saw Blink 182 and Green Day for 43 bucks nine years ago. I'm guessing this performance will be mostly acoustic, so why such the high fee? I agree. This dude's alright. Definitely not worth $32-$40 though. $15.00 is more like it.
  21. Yeah... Only a few have gotten repeat listens. A shame... he's got a great voice, but the people producing/mixing the songs are steering them in the wrong direction IMO. Could have been cause of their label too... who knows.
  22. http://pupfresh.com/post/5580860500 Album has leaked. Discuss.
  23. Can someone link in a spoiler what the post credit screen is all about? I don't get it!?!? #Neverreadcomics
