Fap God Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 10 minutes ago, No Burgers, For You -Jan said: I keep rewinding it to that "Nightmare Daydreams" part by Mark with Tom in the background yelling "oh NO". That, "GET THE ROPE X4", and the prechoruses are probably my favorite blink moments since DED. Genuinely. Not to mention the extended ending, "EVERY DAY, It's a Wasssteee, wanna play?" This would never happen during the Feldmann era and it's so refreshing for them to loosen the grip a bit on the creativity. Tom with the FUcked her in ChuUuRCh line is so silly, but another example. I'm just going to assume "Wanna play?" is like a take on "want to play this fucked up love game?" type of thing, not how silly it sounds otherwise. Also going to assume "hanging me quick, when I'm back from the dead" is Meta Tom on returning. I will like Cali more in time as more OG blink music is released, but looking back on it and listening it's all just hard to enjoy without Tom at the least on guitar. But I am a guitar guy, so if you don't need that, then there are definitely enough moments, especially vocally on there. LOL you’re on crack. This song is a leftover from the Feldmann era and it’s obvious. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This song is a leftover from the Feldmann era and it’s obvious. Nah, it sounds a lot better to me. There are SOME similarities, with the lyrics and tradeoff, wish there was no similarities, but if California didn't exist for 6+ years or whatever in our face, same song every time, it wouldn't even be noticeable. I mean most importantly, Tom sounds like Tom, to me (for his respected age). It's not going to be my favorite blink song, and the new album would be a failure to me if it was the best off that, but I don't see how you can't find any redeeming qualities to it. It really does have a blink vibe to it watching the video and all, just not super intricate deep progressive material but they've said they weren't going for that. Could it be bit better? Yes. Could the guitars be louder and the chorus wider? Yes. Could the video be better? Probably not. Could vocals sound more how we would expect and want Mark & Tom in 2022? Mark, maybe, but probably not Tom, tbh. That little breakdown is great though, could take 10 songs of that easily and be satisfied. I mean, I don't really need to elaborate why Tom leading the way so much feels so much more authentic to blink than any Feldmann era song. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This song is a leftover from the Feldmann era and it’s obvious. this song is quite the odd case, it has the quality that songs have when its blink with tom its fresh and modern and fitting of the now and rather perfect for a comeback song the "they gonna hang me quick when im back from the dead" part that tom signs is great but then it gets into that corny(we couldnt come up with anything better) part before the chorus and then goes into that cringe "all time low" type of song chorus 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 I still don't hear how the dadadada in Mark's prechorus has the same melody of the dadadada of Story of A Lonely Guy. It doesn't sound like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theedge00 Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 I think in Toms fucked her in church line, WE (the fans) are HER. And the church is Blink 182. We all wanted (PRAYED) that Tom would return to Blink for the past decade. In the end he did come back, but for 10 years he basically fucked us 😤 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champ182 Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 I know Mark said they're not doing any media yet but I would kill to see them pop up on SNL or something in the next month or so... I'm really curious and excited to hear how this sounds live, especially since the production is so busy and strange. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott. Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Enters in at 31 in the UK top 40. I think that’s their first top 40 hit since Untitled and pretty impressive considering mainstream rock is fucking dead 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about as much Rock n roll as MGK’s music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsey Kardashian Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Diddy, we get it. You don't like blink anymore, based off of edging and whatever you're reading about the production. Time to let it go and let us enjoy it if we want to, or at the least, check back in when there's more than one song out so you can have some more critics to vent with. I'll take an MGK album that has Tom, Mark, and Travis on it at this point if that's worst case scenario. Not what I'm wanting if it's up to me, but I'll honestly enjoy that more than California style with Matt. Edging isn't that good but I honestly like it quite a bit for what it is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invaluable Nonbinosaur Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Yeah I’m not big on the song but I’m not spending every minute shitting on it. Just glad the guys are friends again, bask in it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
