Russel Coight Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 I didn’t listen to the proper release of restless souls until today because the leak left me so unimpressed. Unfortunately the actually release was just as average. Did nothing for me. Thw four songs released so far are in an “ep” on Spotify so I actually listened to them together. Euphoria is great. So is kiss and tell. Rebel girl does nothing for me anymore and this new song is the same. Hope the rest is better! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're confusing Of nightmares with Chasing shadows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom will never do any wrong in someone like you’s eyes. i pretty much hated tom from 2005-2016 and was really vocal about it. i wanted him out of blink and everything. but i like these new songs and think you're easily the most annoying person to ever post on this message board. drives me fuckin nuts, honestly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider that Of Nightmares EP as unreleased material from the Dream Walker album really. Wasn't a fan of that EP tbh, although View From Below is way better than Kiss With a Spell which has similar vibes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 Of Nightmares EP is my fave AVA release haha 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tired of coight Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 Chasing Shadows is easily one of Tom's best releases as he didn't try to do too much but write good songs. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's okay though, different views is a good thing. View From Below is one of the best songs he's done for years imo! Kiss with a spell is just breath part 2 haha. 2 hours ago, _Bagels whipped cream said: Chasing Shadows is easily one of Tom's best releases as he didn't try to do too much but write good songs. When it came out it was a breath of fresh air for sure as you could hear toms songwriting in it without Ilan's input imho. 2 hours ago, _Bagel said: We all @twentytwenty is the biggest Tom Bot here.

Also, Voyager is easily my favorite from the EP, it's like the perfect blend of AVA and neighborhoods blink imo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wannabe corn dog Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 those EPs collectively only had like two decent songs. he would have been better off hanging onto those ideas for a longer album. this is honestly an ava trend. wdntw and i-empire could have been an awesome 15 track album. same with the love records. he just doesn't know what to scrap.

Didn’t miss the prices of shows tho… Yeah I get this, I've missed concerts really bad. So I'm excited for the first tickets I bought for Weezer and Green Day at Summerfest. Disappointed blink didn't end up doing it this year after being scheduled there for 2020, but this should be a solid replacement all the same. I guess fall out boy is there too, but I truly couldn't care less about that part of the bill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah definitely, Dream Walker & Of Nightmares definitely have more electronic elements. Chasing Shadows literally sounds like a blink-182 EP haha, but it still has it's electronic moments whilst being more guitar driven at the same time. I'm just disappointed there probably isn't gonna be a song like the EP title track on the new album. It's probably my favourite AVA song too. Agreed on View From Below as well. it's like a more electronic version of the Cure IMO. Dunno how that song never made the album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saco0o Posted June 21 Report Share Posted June 21 Tom Delonge mentioned on this fun podcast about science on the UFOs part. Its the first article they cover so you can listen without having to skip to that part. Good sense of humor from these guys imo haha 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAPLORD Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 Tom DeLonge in 2001- “is it wrong if I think it’s lame to dance?” Tom DeLonge with AVA- I’m just gonna put the guitar down and dance like a mentally ill fairy now for the rest of my days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 I haven’t even listened to the official release of the new song yet, I was so underwhelmed. So far they’ve put out three good songs and two duds. Not a great percentage but I am happy to have the three good ones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabe corn dog Posted June 23 Report Share Posted June 23 if i enjoy at least eight songs on this record, i will consider that a success. if not, i would hope that tom just hangs it up entirely. i'd say the same for any other musician. it's just not realistic to expect an album full of completely fresh and amazing songs from someone who has been releasing music for 30 years, imo. yes, it's possible. but we're talking about tom delonge.

And I’m not knocking you for saying that by the way, I’m just saying music in general has gotten so shitty and forced these days that I would say I’d be happy with 50% good songs on an album lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
