I absolutely love One More Time, favorite album since Untitled easily. I just wish the mix was better. It's so harsh that it's hard to listen on repeat as much as I would've wanted to haha.

Do you listen to it on Spotify ? I think some of the streaming platforms have updated mixes that are less harsh on the ears.

OMT PT2 vinyl was the best I’ve heard part 1 and 2 sound.

[boxelder]

OMT is pretty good overall. none of it holds a candle to anything pre-2005, but it's certainly the best album since then. more consistent than neighborhoods though less exploratory, less obviously commercial than california. i sort-of wonder what would make a perfect blink post-2005 album, sans skiba era. i tried to sequence it like i'd imagine it. made some hard cuts (pretty little girl, more than you know, blink wave), but:

1. GOTDF
2. dance with me
3. every other weekend
4. when i was young
5. after midnight
6. one more time
7. heart's all gone
8. bad news
9. kaleidoscope
10. wishing well
11. you don't know what you got
12. anthem pt 3
13. childhood

What's the last blink album yall actually enjoyed..?

the last one

[Just Good Chats]

fantastic video

travis is such a brilliant n great man, hes always evolved, him running buisnesses sucesfully way back then when he was much younger, was a early telling sign that he was someone unsuauly talented with that stuff

the thing hes built to record with artist and write for them is fantastic aswell (the setting, the process, who he writes with and what he does for them)

but listening talking about the blink stuff of that last albummakes me wonder,

did tom write anyhting ont he new album? 

that on moe time song sounded so much like a tom song!?!?

I still don't put a ton of stock into Travis's version of events all the time. I'm sure if we got an interview with Tom or Mark like this, they'd explain things a little differently. 

But either way, as someone else said earlier, why does Travis feel the need to strip back the mystique in the first place by saying it was basically all him while sitting around with some other dude? Haha he's so aloof.

So underrated. That chorus is gold. Drums are so good, Travis rips.

Great call on the drums. The fill at 2:35 broke my brain at age 13 and it never healed. Fucking incredible. Love this song.

Tom recording some stuff for the boys of Kut U Up. Great to see

Can't believe him and Cote are cool after the wife swap

literally same, i can hear it in my sleep. crazy fill. 

i always feel like time to break up is perhaps the nadir however of tom's songwriting on TOYPAJ. it's so dumb. for such a great chorus and riff he totally drops the ball with "shit, fuck, i made a mistake" and "we take our chicks to the mall / we wait in parking stalls". it's definitely a B-side to me, but musically the song is vintage blink.

Time to Break Up and Don’t Tell Me It’s Over are each miles better than Shut Up and Please Take Me Home

I don't know if they are better, but I'd put them on the official tracklist without a doubt. To me they are super fun classic blink.
