daveyjones Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 here's the place to come be honest, right @Kay? the more times i listen to NINE, the less i like it. in fact, i think i prefer california. and i prefer the cali deluxe (second disc songs) to the original california! kinda surprised myself, but, yea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njdevils26 Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 So like a fair amount of time has passed. I don’t like the album like I thought I did. I don’t even listen to it anymore. It didn’t even come out yet officially and I’m over it. Happy people like it, but it’s just not for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yodda Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Yesss Let the hate consume you! Seriously though, not a California fan - but it holds up better than Nine. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Zoomer Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 I’ve been playing most of the NINE tracks since it leaked and now I’m worn out on it, especially with my favorite tracks. However, I do know that this album will have much more staying power than California once this honeymoon phase is over. Trust me, I said California was my favorite blink album once it leaked.

I wouldn't say that, to me, the more I listen to it the less I like it, but definitely with more playing, it starts to show what to me are some important flaws (and also, some good points). So, as this is the criticism thread, I'm gonna put down some things I don't like. - Too much and evident autotune or whatever you want to call it. - Messy shit going on on the background on some songs. Some kind of buried and blurry electronic layers. - In that regard, guitars are not as present as I would like, but well.. - Mark singing out of range in Back Rain. Is painful to hear (kind of ruins his parts for me) and, as I said, I can't wait to see them playing it live to see Mark blacking out trying to hit his verses (if they don't tune it down the song). Also, I still don't get the praise for this song. Is decent, but I think is a little bit all over the place. - No Heart To Speak Of. To me, the worst song on the album by far. Annoying melody and monotone as fuck. Even worse than Blame It To My Youth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Nine is less straight up annoying than California to me but I can see why someone would prefer California, partly because Nine is kinda...sonically messy? don't know how to describe it, but it detracts from the songs a lot and I think whilst I despise the production on California, it is more straight forward and that could appeal to some. I've purposely only listened 3 times total because I found myself liking it less and less and I didn't want to be alone on the sad little hate train so I'm waiting until it's out on Spotify before bothering to spin it again. Can't say I'm particularly interested in listening to it though, just didn't do anything for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nailed it A lesser bonus track off of Louder Now or something but even that's selling Taking Back Sunday short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucko Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 Still enjoying the album, but I found another criticism. Mark Hoppus is a Robbie Williams fan. He talks about singing Come Undone in Run Away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yodda Posted September 18, 2019 Report Share Posted September 18, 2019 I've never cared (even a little) to listen to his music. But he did narrate the first Robbie the Reindeer short - so he's okay in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
