The blink 182 general discussion topic

[bobbo11290]

I’m not one that usually gives a rat ass about award shows and such, but what in the actual fuck? OMT got just about the same positive critical reception Saviors got, plus commercially plummeted it. It had two hit rock radio singles, the latter which crossed over into top 40 radio and set records for longest time at number one on its respective rock chart stay. Green Day hasn’t even had a single crack the hot 100 since Oh Love barely landed on it in 2012, placing at #97. It had everything Saviors has to be nominated and beyond. It’s not even subjective opinion, it’s objective fact. And it wasn’t even worthy of being nominated? But California somehow was? Then what the hell ARE they looking for in terms of determining what albums are worthy of nominations? None of it even begins to make sense.

Green Day are little woke cunts though aren’t they while Tom and Mark are on stage talking about sucking eachothers dicks.

And of course, princess swift’s dog shit album that even the swiftiest of the swifties thought was mid as fuck gets an album of the year nom, while blink can’t even get into the rock category. And this is coming from someone that thought folklore was Swift’s untitled.

No Grammy’s nomination for One More Time… sadly

Best Rock Album:
The Black Crowes – Happiness Bastards
Fontaines D.C. – Romance
Green Day – Saviors
Idles – Tangk
Pearl Jam – Dark Matter
The Rolling Stones – Hackney Diamonds
Jack White – No Name

Wow. They were nominated with California and not with OMT?

It’s nice seeing Tom post that the next album is going to blow this one away, and that they’ve only “just started”

Tom can be blink's greatest hype-man when he's on point. Literally telling Mark whilst he had cancer ' 'Let's get you healed and then go dominate' - 125 shows later, they did just that.

Came here to see the whining and complaining lol. Grammies are whack anyways

I tried to listen to Can't Go Back right after Not Now and it flows so well... wonder if they're exploring that sound again.

So punk. 

 

Recognition is nice every now and then. OMT would've deserved some.

Melting down over not getting Grammy recognition just shows how far Blink fans have fallen 

edit: way more impactful than Saviors and California though 

just shows it’s pay to win? Feldy probably had something to do with it. Now they keep their overhead low

[Scott.]

We know the Grammys are shit but if those Green Day gimps are there then blink deserve to be, but like I said blink will never get the recognition they deserve.

How is it more impactful than Saviors? Just because YOU prefer it? It’s more impactful to YOU, not society as a whole.

No I'm speaking for society.  I liked Saviors, but no one actually gave a shit about it.  Every single person and their grandmother was excited for blink reuniting back with Tom.

That’s because you live in a blink-182 echo chamber. All the Green Day hate here just shows how insecure and envious y’all are.

What's your hard on with Green Day?  They haven't done anything good since American Idiot.  Mid-band since then.  Very good prime tho!  Loved Dookie-AI.  Washed as fuck though, that's non debatable and not open for interpretation.

I don’t have a hard on for Green Day. If you can’t see that your opinions on OMT being so much more grately touted than Saviors are completely biased then there is no having a fair discussion with you and I can’t help you. Just because you feel that way about Green Day doesn’t mean the rest of the world does. You live in a blink-182 echo chamber and that’s totally okay, but you should be able to admit when you’re being completely blind and biased.

Dude, you're just wrong and obsessed with dying on this embarrassing over the hill band hill.  I'm pretty harsh on OMT and everything blink has done since Hoods.  Doesn't change the fact Green Day is extremely cringe and mediocre for an even longer time.  I actually liked Saviors, personally.   Better than Revolution Radio, Father of all, uno dos and whatever else other shit they've done.  Better than Cali/Nine will give you that.

No, I’m not wrong. And I’m not even going to read the rest of your quote. You’re the equivilant of a “Homer” for sports teams. A Homer is defined as a fan, game official, media commentator, reporter, etc. who is biased in favor of their home team. That’s you to a tee. Period, end of discussion.
