Patient #48273 Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 I guess if a song is garbage to start, it's not going to get any worse. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Coight Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 I still really enjoy Cali every time I put it on. I notice the faults more a bit more now but still really enjoy the songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqXyVCosqqo It's actually a pretty good cover of what is arguably the best BCR song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobs Posted April 14, 2022 Report Share Posted April 14, 2022 Can’t say I listen to much blink these days, but if i were going to, I’d probably not be revisiting Cali. Nine has a few I wouldn’t mind hearing again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went on a stretch of going back to a handful of songs from both those albums for a while, but none of them, even First Time (favorite from the releases) stick with me to this day. Half of Neighborhoods still does. Wildfire randomly is my only non skip if something comes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one’s best left in the past IMO, total stinker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically, it's not great, Mark was discouraged Travis overdid it and Tom didn't give a fuck, but it's the 5th/6th best album they have, so it's something. Can't help but love it for what it is and the off-ness of it makes it unintentionally better than it is for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSandt Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 "Less impact on the environment"... Isn't he in the process of building a big house somewhere? If he's worried about the environment, he should move into a small flat in an apartment building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 I would think a complex of flats would have a bigger environmental effect than a single house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
