Low Value Boy Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Little bit disappointed that the Skiba vocal sounds like that on the proper mix and it wasn't just a terrible rip. I get the feeling they were going for a kind of megaphone effect but it's just too overpowering to the rest of song during that part, would of def been better being a bit lower in the mix and him singing it a little bit more rather than fucking shouting constantly as well #blink-182onlineproducer I do like the music though, the drums are cool and the guitar is basic but sounds good. The little lead riff in the verse sounds great as well, it's only 4 or 5 notes but it just blends into the song nicely and sounds better than a lot of the unimaginative repetitive lead parts on California. I also like Marks vocal part and how it carries on throughout, just wish Skiba sounded better when he came in over the top of it. The length doesn't bother me overly but it does seem odd to make such a big deal about releasing a 49 second interlude track. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex_dept. Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 I hope we get announcement of something today, because when Mark promised new music before the tour, I didn't expect 49 seconds. Actually, I would prefer a fixed date and a tracklist for the album, instead of a new song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m one of the biggest skiba lovers here so you’d expect me to love him being front and centre but it just feels intrusive in this song. I have no problem at all with how he sings it and I guess I get what they were going for, but it honestly just feels jarring when listening to the song. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManFan(of blink) Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 What a non-event. A 49 second “song” and the last 10 seconds are just a fade out. I like the general vibe and sound but it’s too short to even bother with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll leave you there, trying to make your “completely point”. Whatever the fuck that’s supposed to mean. Though, the irony of calling someone a retard and then typing that incoherent dribble is not lost on me. *completely rational Good catch!

I like the song... what little of it we can hear. It’s literally about 40-41 seconds not counting the fade out and guitar at the very end. I just think it’s funny to promote something so short and inconsequential. Would dig it on a CD or as an interlude at a concert. But promoting it like it’s a big deal is just amusing. That’s the “meh”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghent Posted June 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 I've listened several times now, and Skiba's part sounds better on Spotify compared to Youtube. Doesn't sound funny on there at all. I'm sure a resident professional audio engineer could shed some light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedo Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 The streaming services sound a lot better, Matt doesn't come in as jarring, it smoothed out that overload effect a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Just listened on Spotify, it's less bad but it's still way too loud, the drums are too. it's a bit of a mess, but oh well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
