Low Value Boy Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 It's average to be honest, has the same problems that has plagued AVA for its whole existence basically, lyrically and vocally it's pretty weak but I quite like the music, I'm a sucker for synth. Such a shame to see Tom, Mark and Travis all continuously releasing such mediocre music, they really all seem to have lost their way musically.

b00bies Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 that synth hook is pretty dope. pretty cool an appetiser for an album. i bet mark already heard a song and ran full speed to the studio to re-record half of the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quits one of the most popular bands in the world, then announces a new band: "i JuSt WaNtEd MoRe FaMiLy TiMe" Talk about fan fiction and encyclopedias!

Keeps milking one of the most popular bands in the world, then announces a new band: "I jUsT wAnTeD tO tRy NeW tHiNgS" See how silly all of these arguments are? Doesn't matter which side it's on, filling in the blanks about things we don't know will always look dumb. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait until the bundles are released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 Tom hasn't done anything in 15 years that wasn't a blatant attempt at raking in some cash with as little work possible required. I mean I'd give him props if he wasn't going broke and sleeping on a couch. Leaves blink to spend more time with his family. Loses entire family, including his dog. ?♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Kyle_ Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 you could argue that same thing about Mark. Blink is his money source and it's basically on autopilot. Has been since the re-union. I don't get why you're mad at Tom specifically, outside of him not being in blink. Which is why (I think) Tom didn't give a shit about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you meant was; "Leaving blink to spend mor time with his family. Loses entire family 15 years later due to divorce". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champ182 Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 Cool idea, I like the progression and new wave synth style (in comparison to old U2 wannabe AVA type stuff). Unfortunately Tom just can't sing worth shit anymore and it's hard to get past that. I think it could've been an awesome Blink song with more guitars and Mark's voice on those verses. I dig the bridge. I don't know, it's cool to hear Tom again even if it's nothing earth-shattering. I'm definitely excited to listen to the rest, assuming there's an album coming. Also LOL at the Cali obsessives. Trying to say this sounds like Ilan Rubin wrote it, or that it was Tom trying to write a Cali style song. Come on guys.
