Toxic Toast Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Cynical The First Time Bored To Death Sober Built This Pool Last Train Home Run Away Rabbit Hole On Some Emo Shit Long Lost Feeling Generational Divide Remember To Forget Me Quote
Resident Zoomer Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Cynical Bored to Death Pin The Grenade Sober Left Alone On Some Emo Shit Heaven Black Rain Long Lost Feeling No Heart to Speak Of Last Train Home Remember to Forget Me I tried to make it gradually flow from more upbeat blink to more moody blink. I would swap the order of Black Rain and Heaven to have Black Rain lead off the “darker” side (pun?) but Heaven and Long Lost Feeling have the same BTD-style riff in the beginning. Quote

It’s one of the trickier blink songs to play...but tell me who plays it better. If your answer is Tom you’re wrong lol Look at you...always being the authority and telling everyone they're wrong. Totally a CMU person ? Quote
Bucko Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 So I actually have a Blink with Skiba playlist now and it's only 11 songs, Ransom massively grown on me the past 12 months: 1. Bored to Death 2. Darkside 3. No heart to speak of 4. San Diego 5. Pin the Grenade 6. Home is such a lonely place 7. Ransom 8. Heaven 9. Last Train Home 10. On some emo shit 11. Long lost feeling Last Train Home and Long Lost Feeling are 2 of my favourite songs at the minute, along with +44 album. I guess this just shows how low I am right now. 3 Quote
Drama-Free Jan Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 If you forced me to listen to both now I'd probably only be able to do 1. First Time 2. Ransom 3. Last Train Home 4. Long Lost Feeling 5. Wildfire (idk why I like this one) 6. TOTTM (maybe) 7. Run Away (maybe) 8. Cynical (only for the mems of when this album first came out) The rest can get in the bin. 1 1 Quote

The overall pacing and tone of the song is great. Verses are fine (despite some lyrical spots). It's just the chorus or whatever Matt's part is there irks people a lot which I understand, but it's over quick. 1 Quote
Nosferatu Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 I'm one of the haters of Wildfire. Still a trash song to me. it sounds more like Four Year Strong or something. Might be the worst blink song of all time. It's a 1/10 song for me. The only thing that stops that song from being a 0/10 funnily enough is the call and response vocals in the 2nd verse. Skiba's voice sounds good with Mark's especially when he's not yelling. It's Los Angeles I love from California. That song is fucking great. I'm biased with that one though cause the intro of it gives me Fighting the Gravity vibes and I love that song. 1 Quote
JarJarBlinks Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Oh god, you're one of the "i HaTe SkIbA's YeLlInG" guys. How dare he add some different qualities to his vocal performance. Quote

Ghent Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 I'd drop No Future and Hey I'm Sorry from California and On Some Emo Shit and Remember to Forget Me off Nine and call it good. If we're counting the Deluxe, add Parking Lot, Wildfire, and Good Ole Days. Wouldn't add any of the others Quote

I like Alkaline too, but man does he do nothing but yell in blink it's so obnoxious. Quote

It's funny that it seems like everyone has the same perception of Cali/deluxe/nine overall, but all have different takes on the songs. Like I hate hate hate, despise Misery, Parking Lot, BIOMY, Black Rain, don't really like No heart to speak of, San Diego, or Soohm either... But I like Wildfire, Sober, Los Angeles, which most people hate. 1 1 Quote

I like it a lot, I think it actually brings more dynamic sounds into the songs and makes it interesting to listen to. It's also used in a lot of the more "emotional" parts of songs, adds to the vibe. edit: Plus it reminds me of when Alk3 plays "Crawl" and Skiba yells "CRAWL THERE" live and it's incredible. 2 Quote
Fun, Catchy Pop-Punk Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Remember to Forget Me and I Really Wish I Hated You are some of the cringiest song titles. Sounds like an 18 year old pop star wrote them. 2 Quote
_Bagel Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 I always thought 'Hey I'm Sorry' was a really special post-Tom song. Mature, somber and the level they should be writing at. 1 Quote
