Scott. Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 I like it a lot. Just the sound of it. Lyrics are beyond terrible though but the sound of it is cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddey Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 I’m not digging it on the first few listens. Will give it another shot later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Not a bad track. Not a favorite of mine but still pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott. Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 It’s got a pixies/Greenday vibe to it. I love that humming chorus. I’m a fucking sucker for that grungy shit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentytwenty Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 I don't think there's anything wrong with his songs, it's just his voice I can't listen to. My girlfriend loves his pop punk stuff though so I don't really have a choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott. Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 I don’t mind his vocals tbh. It’s quite nice to not have that whiny pop punk vocal 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That chorus is so simple yet so nice Damn, Kelly really a legend. He's like taking all the good old melodies we grew up with and putting his own little spin on it. He's different enough yet so it feels fresh (I think being solo instead of a band has something to do with this). Also, they did a good job with this video, especially Travis at the end there. They seem like a perfect fit. "Demonized lately because I was born with an angel face" Shoot me, but I like it. MGK for life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it takes getting used to but that's his style. He's pretty genuine with it and it kind of makes up for it. I'd hate it if he tried singing in a pop punky vocal, which I think he did a few times and sucked. Leave that to Jordan Pundik. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Damn, this is a total ripoff of the pixies, but I like it. Ever since I started listening to latin music I barely recognise myself. I hope the punk police don't find me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that all life has been squeezed out from his vocals with Melodyne that is unnerving for me. I don't know if he does that to himself or if it's just Travis that don't know how to navigate Melodyne, but I don't really know why they'd want to do that. I mean you can tune the vocals heavily and still don't get this unnatural sound. It's really too bad too because I would probably enjoy the heck out of it if it weren't for that, the songs aren't bad at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twentytwenty Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 By watching live clips it's clear that the dude can sing, there's really no use of doing this bad of a tuning job.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ182 Posted August 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 This isn't quite the purpose of this thread, but I was listening to the new Killers album (which is shockingly great, I liked their first album but never kept up with them over the years. Never knew they were capable of an album this interesting, highly recommended). Anyway, sometimes I come across songs that make me think "If you squint hard enough, THIS is what Blink could have evolved into if Tom never lost his mind." Usually it's something that has elements of Tom's anthemic ambitions, classic melodic energetic Blink-style alt rock, and 80s new wave Tom and Mark both have love for. Certain elements like slide guitar aside, this Killers song is the latest example I've heard. The outro especially reminds me of one of their extended instrumentals they were doing live after Untitled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ182 Posted August 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 An even better example: It's so easy for me to imagine Travis doing a flashy beat, the keyboard riff being guitar, Mark singing the verses, Tom singing the choruses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
