Mark and Travis are happy and they are releasing good music and are really happy. good time to be a fan, never thought i'd get this again So we agree that Skiba most likely isnt happy in this situation.

Ghent Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Skiba has never seemed like a happy person to me, with the whole gothic death thing going on. Hard for me to judge because I'm not an Alkaline Trio fan and don't know what the baseline is. He seemed stoked to be there the two times I've seen him live with blink though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you want Blink 182 to be John Feldmann? Don't you like, like the band? Don't you want to hear what Matt, Mark, and Travis could write and not John Feldmann? No bullshit, I don't get that. If you are a fan of Blink 182, why don't you want Blink 182? Why do you celebrate some dude who has no connection to them and who is paid to write music across all genres(mostly boy bands) writing their songs for them?

By all accounts they all worked very well together and enjoyed themselves. Blink-182 is not John Feldmann, he is their producer and co-writer. Yes, I like the band. I did hear what Matt, Mark, and Travis wrote, with the help of a producer/co-writer. I do want blink-182, I got blink-182. I celebrate him because he helped save my favorite band, helped them write a kickass album, and is a hilarious good dude in general. I hope that answers your questions, Oliver, have a great day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyCuomo Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 If Feldman replaced Tom would we then be ok with all of Feldman’s ideas? We already have to take a leap in acceptance with Tom gone, what’s it matter now if the producer is writing with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 I think I'm the only one who doesn't mind the Hey I'm Sorry chorus. The little post chorus part is too Cali, intro is obviously wtf? The rest is gold. Hey I'm Sorry I lost the melody/your memory is classic Mark to me. MH: Hold me down deep under water Wave goodbye to all your daughters Break yourself but why even bother? Fathers pray for princes instead Have your fill of disappointment Two more years of unemployment All your fears come to life and leave you boarded up abandoned and spent MS: Everything you've ever hoped for Waiting there outside your front door Bleeding to death MH: Are you alone with all your thoughts Your suitcase full of books you bought Those are seriously good lyrics and genuine to me. This is exactly what I expected and was wanting from these two, actually a bit pissed seeing the potential going right down the shitter. They should have used Feldmann just for Bored to Death and been done with it. And I would trade Bored to Death in a heartbeat to hear and album of what they were writing pre-feldy that they canned. The only positive of all this is that minor glimpse of Hey I'm Sorry (whether you like the song or not, is good writing) shows they aren't exactly dead just yet.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly that's a really interesting alternate universe haha, in my opinion I still wouldn't be a fan of the music but I wouldn't have nearly as much of an issue with his input. He would just be a member of a band writing songs for the band he's a member of. Just like anybody else. But instead we obviously expected a mix of Skiba/Mark/Travis. We didn't end up hearing much (perceived) Skiba influence, and a LOT of Feldmann influence, which caught everyone off guard because nobody knew he was co-writing the album and has a very different vibe than Matt Skiba. So the gap between expectations and reality wouldn't have been as jarring if he was just Tom's replacement in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that answers your questions, Oliver, have a great day Everything you've written above is fan fiction. Very similar to your ideas on Blink 182 post reunion "They are hard at work on the album, things just take time, nothing wrong here" Meanwhile shit was falling apart, Tom was quitting left and right, they were not recording together, etc etc etc. (all which I predicted by the way) You live in a world of make believe. Feldmann writes shit, thats what the dude does. His signature is all over those songs and he even reuses the stuff in other bands. matt has no in influence in the band at all. Just like with everything else, the facts are on the table, you live in fanboy fantasy land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just consider him a non touring, 4th member of the band and be done with it if it's such a hang up. Would be differen't if he was literally writing them completed songs and having them record vocals. But that's not what's happening, and if you say it is you're a tin foil conspiracy theorist imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Value Man Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 As expected. Ghent can never support his own opinions. Like, not with anything. Never get your doctorate Ghent, you go in a room and they challenge you on your shit, and you actually have to be able to defend it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 @Olidamus your signature is too large man. When on desktop there's like 30 spaces between the quote and the photos, takes up the whole page. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghent was a Trump supporter who turned into a liberal mouth piece. It would be one thing if he just hated Trump but still held conservative positions, he just does the rip and read of the daily liberal talking points. Even Robert Lee's act is getting old, he was fairly anti Feldmann, but is turning pro Feldmann just so he can disagree with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
