Champ182 Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Pretty decent! I give it a 5/10 or so. I have basically zero expectations for AVA so I've actually "enjoyed" all 3 of the songs we've heard from this album. Not enough to listen to them more than a couple times each, but at least they don't make me want to laugh/cry/barf. I do agree that his bandmate seems to be the driving force in songwriting now. The style doesn't really seem natural for Tom and doesn't really suit my tastes but at least it's aiming for something other than Diet U2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess all of those ideas were the last of what he had for blink before that well dried up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit me up Jans ex Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 I just can’t fuck with Tom anymore. His voice is so fucking bad. Does he realize he sounds like a fucking dying cat grasping for air? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 To be honest I'm used to how his voice has settled the last few years. It's not as good as his old voice obviously but I don't really care about it now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny, my snobby musician friends who hated his voice and Blink back in the day say he has a good singing voice now. They probably don't listen to it enough to hear the dying cat moments, but I showed them Rebel Girl one day and both stated that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever it is, I like it. i think they fucked up majorly by sacrificing this song to some garbage edm mashup. if this was a normal ava song then it could have been the lead single. paper thin has classic tom melodies that get stuck in your head. euphoria barely even has a chorus.

Ghent Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 All that proves is that Tom needs to be working with a modern, non-henchman producer. Besides the EDM crap, yeah that is good. But it's only good because he's not allowed to do what he wants lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Tom needs Feldmann. It would be so much tension but probably bring good results. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Feldmann producing Mark Tom and Travis would result in some good shit. Tom would cancel out some of the excessive Feldmann influence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kibbles Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 He sings too high in the chorus. I like the leading but then it’s like he’s out of breath and sounds like he’s mocking a high pitched singer like when he fucks around on First Date ( deleted the double post it did for some reason ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauren Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Hmmmmm. I like it, but the last chorus is by far the best part of the song. Wish it was more like that. Its like that was his first idea, then had to make it “more mature/arty” and wrote the first half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
