prankerd14 Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 The live version sounded so promising, it sounds so shit the mix after the intro on this and doesnt really pick up.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M!ke Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 New song is weak. Not as bad as Rebel Girl, but it's definitely a forgettable one. Parts of the tune are really reminiscent of Rollercoaster by Bleachers too, but that song is so much better, that I'm gonna go listen to that one as a cleanse from this meh of a song lol.

Nosferatu Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Those verses just kill the song. They should've just let the guitars hit hard after the intro like they do for the verses of Valkyrie Missile, Adventure and Mercenaries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radioactive tomdog Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 i like this song but am really worried about no more guns and the fire one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotNow Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Tom explains critters death here. Flew out to record all that we are solo while tom was on tour and then died after. His timeline isn’t right though love part 2 came out november 1, 2011 and he died in January 2012. Album must have been finished recording at least a month prior. Still crazy though. https://www.kerrang.com/features/tom-delonge-my-life-in-10-songs/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knapppers Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Echoing what most are saying with the disappointment with time bomb. Was looking so forward to it and it's just meh. Something about his voice in the recording kills it and like others have said, there's like no guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Coight Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Yeah songs not bad. It’s not really that good either. Tom sounds weird on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't really "hear" Tom in a lot of the post-Rubin era stuff. I could be completely wrong but the melodies/progressions/structures seem unnatural for him based on the rest of his career, which makes me think Ilan has a bigger hand in AVA than anybody else ever has. (Which is totally fine by the way, he's the other fulltime bandmember and Tom isn't very interested in music so it makes sense. I also have never been drawn to AVA in the first place. But Ilan's vibes just don't hit the sweet spot for me.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vocal melodies seem like Tom to me, as do the stupid lyrics, but musically most of it doesn't "feel" like him, but because it's Toms weird space rock project and not blink I care a lot less. AVA isn't exactly an epic quality I'm expecting him to hit, if you have zero expectations it ends up being alright like. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Yeah not listening to this either. I want an experience that at least somewhat resembles listening to a new album for the first time when the full thing comes out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torrent sites that are invite only and then they have all these strict rules etc. Full of tossers but they do usually get stuff early although most of it ends up elsewhere pretty quick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
