Man me too. I still wish it started right off with the distorted octave riff instead of the clean part though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 I listened to California Deluxe all the way through yesterday for like the fourth time ever. Enjoyable but easily blink's worst album in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordidanen95 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 I still enjoy it a lot actually. Pretty good record. Not a masterpiece but enjoyable songs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerpipe Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Super forgettable, unfortunately. Really feels like a mish mosh. Only stand out track for me is misery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan_ Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 What is California Deluxe?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 I can get through Deluxe a few times if I skip past Parking Lot & Misery. I just pretend it's not blink. If you combined all the best parts of each song from Deluxe, I bet you could make 1 or 2 actually solid songs though. Think Misery intro, Hey Im Sorry verses, Wildfire prechorus, Last Train chorus & synth part, Don't Mean Anything's bridge, BOTO experimentation influence, and 6/8s time measure and there you have it! A vintage song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 I basically only listen to 6/8. maybe Last Train Home sometimes, that's basically it. I like those two tracks more than the tracks from the first California though so idk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxelder Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 i listened to it in full a week or two ago, very forgettable. i sorta like cali and dlx as i can enjoy hyper-poppy/overproduced shit, but it's not what i like in blink, so for that reason it's hard for me to embrace it. i warmed to long lost feeling for sure though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Misery, Long Lost Feeling & Bottom of the Ocean as well. Good Old Days has grown on me to the point that I bought the song from iTunes. As for the other tracks, they just don't exist in my mind. Made my own California album by making a playlist of the songs I like from the deluxe and original.

182Tim Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Misery, Wildfire, 6/8, Hey I'm Sorry and Last Train Home are my go to songs off the Deluxe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 I think i will enjoy WDNTW acoustic 1000x more than California. The clips Tom has posted sound pretty awesome. Its gonna be a easy listening album with a different spin on a good album. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested in hearing Distraction because I think it was on Start the Machine DVD where they talked about how Tom's voice changed and that was one of the first tracks they did. I was hoping blink would've done an acoustic release like this or an "unplugged" album like when they did those live acoustic performances of Waggy, Give Me One Good Reason and so on... and no tombot love but I'm stoked to hear this Strange Times EP when it comes out in 6 years...

Lauren Posted July 14, 2017 Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 Yeah. I will always be at least a little excited when tom or blink releases new material. I am excited for Strange Times and if its any good thats just a bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
