According to my Facebook memories, I-Empire leaked 13 years ago today, in 2007. I was very into AVA at the time and I was so excited for that album. I had already heard like half the songs on it beforehand because of single releases and other partial leaks, but I was still thrilled to hear the full record. I remember listening to it that night in bed with my headphones on and thinking Heaven was one of the best songs ever.

I don't listen to the album much these days, but a lot of fun memories are associated with it for me. It was an exciting time to be a blink fan even though blink wasn't around. There was still hope for a second +44 album at the time. Things were looking up. Haha.

Might have to spin that record tonight. It's a fun one.

 

edit: @boxelder I don't know if a leak is worthy of inclusion on the official timeline, but if you feel it is I just wanted to tag you here so you can see the date.

i actually had no idea that the band worked with him first in LA and then potentially scrapped a lot of the material and re-recorded it with O. in san diego

the story of the westbeach sessions + overdubs at doubletime with jeff forest is told in detail in anne hoppus' book. they didn't scrap any material; they just redid vocals and added some more guitar work.

i think he just tries to be funny/edgy... kinda like that new @Depf dude.
