If it's a person speaking into the camera on their Youtube channel I'm out haha. Especially for 14 minutes, my god. duuuude same. it’s like everyone is trying to make themselves a thing when they really don’t even have a unique perspective. it creeps me out watching somebody bark into a mic in their bedroom in other news, the atlantic gave NINE a positive review, as did billboard https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2019/09/blink-182-nine-album-review-wistful-and-catchy/598420/ https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/rock/8530537/every-song-ranked-on-blink-182s-nine 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thongrider Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 It's awkward at times, but I like it. It's always seeming some dink talk about music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzz Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 Totally agree with Billboard's NHTSO take: "The great irony of Nine is that for its modish, pop-leaning efforts, the best track on this album is an old-school, emo-era exploder that could’ve easily appeared on their 2003 self-titled effort. Skiba is given full reign to lay into the towering chorus, a lovelorn gut punch that pop-punk lifers will be screaming before the end of the song. Finally, Blink lets a very capable singer showcase what he can really do. More of this, please! Sure, if Blink would’ve went and made a whole album of this, dissenters would’ve probably called them stubborn or stuck in the 2000s, but man-oh-man does “No Heart To Speak Of” absolutely rip. Skiba feels in it for the long haul here, and the skittering piano and drum outtro ties a pretty bow. This the most propulsive Blink-182 song in recent memory and it’s even not close." 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly what I've been realizing with the more blink I hear with Matt, that what I really like is when the stuff is darker and leans more toward what Skiba does with Alkaline Trio. Tracks like No Heart To Speak Of, Last Train Home, Los Angeles, and Black Rain are what I think is what really works for where blink is headed right now. I mean I love Nine as a whole, but the more of those kinds of songs, the better if you ask me. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
