Guest kevintalbot Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Okay, i know there are topics about what you think the new album will sound like. Really we dont know But do you feel the album will be beyond anything blink has ever written? I think this album will be written so well and from the heart itd be untouchable. So much has happened to the members, within the band, etc. There is so much that they could write about, and when you are writing from the heart theres usually MASSIVE influence compared to just writing down about a hypothetical situation. Writing about what tore them apart, what brought them together, what they missed out on as friends, as a band, etc. I really think this album is going to be one for the ages. lookout greenday, you're rock operas got nothin on this.

NotTheSun Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 i think its either going to be a masterpiece, or something we all look at and say, "eh" but, i cant see it being terrible, or even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAMNIT Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I'm hoping for something more Enema of The State OR Cheshire cat (which I doubt will happen) Not self titled please. That was a good album, but probably their weakest overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian DX Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I don't think it will be better than TOYPAJ or EotS. But better than Untitled? I think the problem with Untitled that almost no one loved it from the first time they heard it. It's an album that has to grow on one.. and I think the new album may be more of an album that you love from the beginning of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem with Untitled that almost no one loved it from the first time they heard it. It's an album that has to grow on one.. and I think the new album may be more of an album that you love from the beginning of. I think if the majority of people didn't love it right away, it's because it's vastly different from anything else Blink has done. Half of your initial focus is spent on how different it is. I admit that at first I was a little like "weirrrrrrd" but now it's my all time favorite CD without anything being close. The other side of the coin is that Blink is a band that a lot of people simply do not like. Whether or not Untitled was any good, these people were going to hate it. I think the CD stands on it's own as an all time top of the line record. I mean that. But the name "Blink 182" really held it down when it comes to acclaim.

thongrider Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 if its sounds like until the stars fall out of the sky it might be close to cheshire cat. But it can really not beat the great 4 (cs, dr, nma, toypaj) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxbrankxx Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Who knows. I have a bad feeling about Tom though... I just hope he puts 100% of his heart into this album. Before AVA Blink was his only focus, we don't want him holding out on secret riffs, like "Oh this ain't Blink material, I'll just save this for AVA"... He needs 100% focus on one project. Please Tom, no half-ass attempts for the new record.... give it *ALL* you got! I wonder how touring is gonna be now since that was one of the reasons of the original break up. We all know Tom didn't wanna tour as much as Mark and Travis cause he wanted to be home with his family.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Value Boy Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I'm hoping for something more Enema of The State OR Cheshire cat (which I doubt will happen) Not self titled please. That was a good album, but probably their weakest overall. Ridiculous statement. I think overall its their strongest. I don't want them going back to the earlier style, I loved it and still do but they have moved on as musicians and people, everyone has to remember how old they are now and if they go back to singing songs about high school and getting dumped then it could make them a bit of a laughing stock. I hope they use Self titled as a base and experiment even more vocally, instrumentally and technically. The sky is the limit for this record!

I think them being apart and not playing/writing for four years could be the best thing that happened to Blink, the whole Travis and friendship thing gives them loads to write about and also it will be interesting to see how they have grown as musicans and people over the past four years and what new ideas each of they will bring into the studio. I'm so excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8blink4life33 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I like Untitled from the start, blink put alot of work in that record, almost took them a year to do. And it was byfare their best. I think this one will be better because these guys have went through a lot over these years, and that helps bring your heart into every song. But I also think it might be a little week tho cause they plan to release it this summer. Thats only around 4-6 months of work compared to a year. But hey, its blink man, their back, i`m sure i`ll love anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anti-Hero Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Enema of the state > Untitled For life. Any particular reasons? I love every blink album ever made. I'm sure if we were all younger we would probably enjoy the earlier albums more. The only reason I think most people sway towards Untitled being their favourite is because their music taste has matured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Untitled is great and amazing and all, but did it live up to toypaj the first time you heard it? I hope the new record is closer to toypaj. But who the hell knows what's in toms head. Let's see if he starts dressing like old tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
