NotNow Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 If the news about the government being in possession of alien aircraft is true, Tom’s name will probably be in history books lmao. Even if he is just a pawn, the things he were saying a few years before all this is happening like the government is figuring out how to slowly drip out disclosure because they can’t control it anymore. It just lines up with how he framed things even if Tom latches onto absurdly fake things; he got pulled in for some use by the government.

Ghost Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 Just throwing some love to this gorgeus song. I fell in love with it when it came out. Even the first leak, which was titled Action (from that videogame I don't remember). I love the instrumental. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it came out on Madden that year I turned off every other song on the game and only had Action playing the entire time I played the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a great bass line that I didn’t really know existed. It’s a shame Jerry had it so low in the mix of the actual song 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it's perfectly mixed yet at the same time the bass lines are great and I'd like to hear it more in the actual track. I wish Mark would play the way he does in the recorded song live but he plays a more simple variation of it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a casual blink guy for so years it’s weird how casual it was looking back. I remember the CD cover of Dude Ranch growing up, pretty sure I thought Sum 41 and blink were the same band for a minute, remembered them again when I saw Charlie’s Angels end credits, always rooted for blink videos to beat the boy bands on TRL but… then Feeling This dropped and contextualized the whole thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always loved how simple Blink songs are but when you really listen to them it’s always a bunch of intricate little pieces put together. Listening to this I realized they used the verse riff in the outro too. I never heard that before, pretty cool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is the official multitrack floating around (maybe extracted from Guitar Hero or something), and is really cool to hear the bass line. I used to use the drum part to play along using Guitar Rig. In this regard, I think Untitled would benefit A LOT in terms of sound if any specialized studio could do an 'audiophile' remastering. It would achieve another level in terms of depth and surrounding. Untitled is gorgeous, it sounds great and shows an amazing production. It was their first record done using digital equipment, but using 'old' techniques and analog stuff too. Finn and his engineer nailed it.

I just don’t think the production is as good on that album for whatever reason. Bass is too low, drums are too low imo. But i might be a little biased against the album. I think Asthenia is amazing but most of the other songs I could do without. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely enjoyed the book but I don't ever recall hearing that when they finished the mastering of Dude Ranch, Tom and Mark drove over to MCA to play it for them and nobody would listen to it and nobody cared at all. That's usually such a bad sign. Not sure if that was indicative of how the label was feeling at the time about them or that the usual major label turnover was just so swift that most bands that got hot, got signed, made the record would usually find themselves in partnership with labels that had already moved on. Not sure if that was ever mentioned prior to the book but I always love hearing the creative decisions and business choices with bands like that. MCA being a Universal thing definitely helped them get into American Pie. Stuff like that I don't think has ever been talked about in detail. It seemed like MTV/MCA knew blink had a lot of potential by that point. I think the videos for Dammit and Josie gave helped them see the potential of blink as long-term video stars. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
