Scott. Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 wtf is wrong with his voice?? Surely the sound is off on the video right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ182 Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 hahaha yeah it's definitely slowed down, probably so it won't get busted for copyright violations and get taken down. The songs are slowed down too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Yeah, its pitched down to avoid getting flagged on Youtube I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BlinkAngels182 Posted June 29, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 I know it's fucked up.. But I honestly hope tom hears California. And it puts the nail in the coffin in his view of the band. Amazing album. TV appreances. Awesome reviews. Happy fans. Sold out tour. ALL without him. I don't wish harm upon tom but I really want him to feel like Trav and Mark felt after he's fucked them over for years.. It's sick but I'm hoping for a complete meltdown. Fuck him. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MassKirbycide Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Honestly, I don't think the album will bother him that much. I'm sure he'll look wistfully at the tour and shows and everything (hence why he feels the need to make those awkward tweets and facebook posts on occasion about the band), but California is absolutely nothing like the kind of music that he wants to make. He quit because he wanted to focus on doing things that he is passionate about, so why would he be upset that blink is making music that he wouldn't enjoy making, regardless of whether it is successful or not?

petros Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Even if he hears California he will surely act like he hasn't listened to it cause he's so busy, he was just talking with the CIA and they didn't have the time to listens to albums. Then he'll be like: "Talked to Travis about the album though, cause you know. That's what we do. Travis and I. WE TALK!!!1!!1!!" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 I think he may have listened to it, but it's definitely not the direction he wanted the band to go into, and he'd probably eye-roll the whole release, and would probably feel justified in his 'totally not' quitting. Regardless of how much more successful they are now then he currently is, and just generally how much better off they all are without him, I doubt he could push his ego aside long enough to get particularly jealous of wistful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CuteBilly182 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Why would he be upset? RESIDUAL INCOME, I'm sure he will still get at least 10-20% of the money they make. He doesn't have to do anything and he will get paid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he could bullshit his way and make 3-5X as much as that by splurging out more half assed stuff. Money matters to dudes their age. Sad world. Just speculating. I don't think any of us know the exact finances going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Tom might be getting money but California has to hurt his ego at least a little. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Is it wrong that I actually think this whole UFO chase is sort of cool and interesting? A bit out there sure, but it's sort of cool.. He just sells it terribly because it's Tom. But there's much lamer things one can do with their money. About the record and Tom, let's be real.. He's not going through this or that or that. He's going through a mixture of all of it, as one naturally would.. he's gonna be 'rolling eyes' at it, a bit nostalgic/missing out feeling, ease the pain because he's getting a cut, probably being an ass in it all legally, critical/condescending of it, jealous of Matt , interested in Matts take, continuing to move forward, etc etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I think UFO stuff is cool, but Tom is annoying about it and not a credible source to learn from. Like he's really going to be the first person in history to expose the government's best-kept secrets... Like... even his book Sekret Machines is supposed to somehow "expose the truth" despite it being a work of fiction. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I guess you have a point. But again, he may actually be doing something cool with it we don't know and is just bad at selling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2point5 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 As much as he's gone bat shit crazy I do like checking up on him like an old friend seeing if he's okay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 With everything he has done, I've given it a go. the only things I haven't are the love movie (I never actually found a way to watch it) and Sekret Machines (don't wanna spend money on it). I tried Poet Anderson, and I saw the animated thing. the latter was terribly written and not particularly gripping. the only winning points were the animation itself and that is the bit Tom could literally have no hand in. As for the book? Someone sent me the ebook version and I couldn't make it through the first chapter. it was just dull and very cliche, and had really weird overuse of swearing. I've never been censorship happy but this was swearing for the sake of swearing, not for emphasis or anything. seemed really unnatural and forced. If I get my hands on an ebook of secret machines, yeah I'll give it a go, but the truth is even when I've tried to give Tom the benefit of the doubt and look into his other 'artistic' endeavours, they usually wind up being a bit shit and not worth investing in. lord knows why people buy so much TTS stuff, it's really not that interesting.

Given how big our universe is, it is likely there is other life, but how is it really possible that the life has come here but only the government knows about it and can keep it under wraps?
