i used to think he was the man, but then novelty kinda wore off when i realized with the exception of the first 2 albums, there are only 2 or 3 good songs per album. first two foo albums are solid tho.

wow we really need Tom do something weird to bring this discussion back on topic

eh, havent been that great since fred left. brand new on the other hand was great right until the end

its clear matt was hired not as a songwriter, just to play guitar and sing. and mark can't write for shit. so feldy had a field day with all the control he wanted.

over produced means that they took all of the feeling out of it like it was spat out of a computer. generic.

over-produced bullshit. awful.

of course california sounds different they lost their lead songwriter and hired a new guitarist

the fact is, love him or hate him, blink was always more tom than mark. he picked up the slack. when he became uninterested thats when it fell apart. maybe mark could "write" a song, but even +44 didnt amount to anything until they brought the other two dudes in. theres an excerpt from mark i posted a few pages back. i'm paraphrasing but it's along the lines of "i had a few scraps. tom had a lot of ideas. he always has ideas"

it would never have happened if mark was involved. tom wanted mark out of the way. it's clear his issue was not with him personally, just musically. can't say i blame tom per se,

actually i correct myself, its not an interview its was something that came with the toypaj vinyl release

blink started having problems when making toypaj. theres an interview from mark saying that he just wanted to remake enema again, and tom wanted to go darker and heavier. tom said box car was just so he could see what he could do on his own, but i think we all know it was so he could do it without mark getting in the way. plus i think tom definitely found his stride with songwriting and became a machine. he just wrote cool stuff, and a lot of it. mark was definitely jealous of that. earlier in blink mark was the face, but tom took control. we all know untitled is all tom.

you all give tom a hard time, mark is a total embarrassment. why does he think that tintin hair looks good? and wtf with his pants

OMG jenkins is such a dick. hardly ever mentions anyone else and its all me me me i i i i. once i learned how big if a dick he was it was hard for me to listen to them, but there are some great great songs on the first two albums.

weezer has been total garbage since pinkerton. i subscribe to to matt sharp theory. the africa cover is pretty good tho.

skiba took blink off his instagram bio. guess this might actually happen.

whathefuck???

i think we can all appreciate how brilliant he used to be.

i love his company names tho. "Mr. Handsome LLC" and "Good in Bed Music"? brilliant.

i honestly think tom does not want to make music with mark. mark wants to remake the same album again and again, and tom doesnt.

did anyone stop to think maybe he left her? maybe she's a cunt. she certainly looks like one.

hard evidence?? trump gets shit thrown at him in the media all day long, with no proof, and nothing will stick. so they keep finding more and more just trying to get him out. it's pitiful. trump could come up with a "puppy bill" to benefit puppies and the media would say "trump hates full grown dogs"

who wouldn't want a delonge jersey? ?

dem jowls doe

It was my impression a long time ago that mark was an alcoholic in the early days of blink. So he stopped drinking. The golden years of blink he was sober. he def started drinking and smoking again during the hiatus. from what I understand is that once you are an diagnosed alcoholic, you always are an alcoholic. Even if you haven’t had a drink in years.

don't know how anyone could listen to 21 guns once you realize he ripped off full house
