Nosferatu Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 1 hour ago, Cheerios4u98 said: I have quite a few times actually. Always catches me off guard. Now that I think of it, I actually have come across people that are around 17-19 that haven't heard blink. God knows how they haven't. It's like hearing a 90's kid saying they've not heard of Queen or something. Obviously Queen are a way way bigger band and a completely different genre but I'd argue blink are just as influential and as well known (nowhere near as respected to the point where they'll get their own movies and shit though). Queen songs were on TV and the radio in the 90's and early 2000s just as much as blink are nowadays. I always knew 2-3 songs by Queen. It'd be a complete shock if nobody knew a Queen song or two and I'll always be shocked if someone hasn't heard at least 1-2 blink songs, no matter how old they are unless they're over 60. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Most kids/teens don't know who vintage blink is anymore, at least that I've run into. They might know the song but have no idea the band, it shocked me for a while considering how every single person from our generation does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vic vinegar Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 I think my kid is the only one in his grade who likes blink. He's in middle school now. He once told me no one really knows who they are so he doesn't talk about them. As much as he loves blink his interest has diminished as he's not fond of the Cali album. He also doesn't like Ava but wants to see both bands live so he can say he saw Mark, Tom and Travis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's been proven by now. If anyone can't see the difference between Skiba's input and performance in AK3 and in blink, well... then there's some deafening problem there. I mean, he even admitted 'they' wouln'd let him to write in blink lyrics such the ones in "Goodbye Fire Islannd" which... well... are not that 'political'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzzz Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 If you haven’t checked out Alk3’s new album, at least check out these 2 Skiba songs which could easily be Blink IMHO: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 Demon and Division could have easily been a blink song what with the annoying 'anything / everything' repeats and the bass bits. it's more 'sing song-y' too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 They don't really sound like blink to me just 1000x better Skiba and lyrical content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The band preferred it lowercase so when they printed more it was fixed. There is also a 3rd version with no red cross on her hat. Fun things to keep an eye out for if you see these at a cheap resale shop or garage sale or something! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
