I like the ending though, Tom always finds a way to say something nice in between it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njdevils26 Posted September 25, 2021 Report Share Posted September 25, 2021 I enjoy the album. It’s different. I know to each their own and all that shit. Only song that’s a dud for me is the no more guns shit, everything else slaps. Looking forward to seeing them at starland in a few weeks. also, since when did we all start looking to Tom for deep life changing lyrics? It’s hilarious reading you all criticize his lyrics like he’s been some lyrical god all these years. I know nothing on the album matches up to “I drove by your house but you don’t live there anymoreeee” but cut the guy some slack. 4 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re allowed to criticise shitty lyrics if we don’t like them. “b-b-b-but blink has shit lyrics now too!!!” Yeah fuck we know. Doesn’t mean we can’t call a spade a spade. Majority of the people shitting on Tom’s lyrics shit on new blink way harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twentytwenty Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 After listening to the album a few times today I retract my earlier statement of timebomb, fucking great song! This really is a great album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas D. Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 Good on Tom for trying new things. Guess this is not for me though. The only song I can listen in repeat is Automatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see them next year but have no friends who like them lol Agreed. But at least WDNTW had something to say, this is just drivel lol. and go by yourself if you want to go, no shame in that 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan_ Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 A Fire in a Nameless Town is one of my favorites from the album. I didn’t love the verses when I heard it the first couple of times but it’s really grown on me. Might a be a controversial take but I think it’s one of Tom’s top choruses in a while. Euphoria, Kiss and Tell, A Fire in a Nameless Town, Spellbound and Losing My Mind are all standouts for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every song on the album has grown a lot on me as well, Tom sounds great on this album as well, way better than on dream walker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radioactive tomdog Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 it's getting hard for me to enjoy the album now with everything tom is posting on social media. i think it's way worse than usual. nobody is listening to this album or finally relating to the band because they now understand his nonsensical claims about "consciousness changing matter." it's beyond embarrassing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude I'm so chuffed people can finally see that if we channel the power of our subconscious mind we can totally affect exactly what we want to happen.

Also a little weird seeing him brag about the album sales. I thought his whole shtick was that his music was too complex for us simps to grasp and that the only reason blink is popular is because we’re all dummies. It would actually be cool to see the album do well commercially if not for all the comments he’s made about not chasing commercial success lol Dude has run his mouth so much it’s like a no win situation for him at this point 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
