Sure but 99% of people don't use it. Might as well start calling blink B182.

Not the same since people actually use an acronym for Angels and Airwaves. Anyways, I don’t really care I just find AAA a cheesy band so I like to troll their fans.

He’s tried so hard and for so long to make it a thing. 

Not at all, call it what you like, that's just what I personally always have and always will shorten that band's name down to. You do you, I'll do me. 

Frankly I think it's just funny that after all these years such a continued mundane preference on my part can still get such a rise out of people lol.

It's hard for me to enjoy Simple Creatures because I've had a hatred of All Time Low for so long. Alex's vocals trigger me instantly lol  That being said, NVM and Adrenaline are very good songs. Furthermore, I'm just glad Mark finally went ahead and did some form of side project instead of hoarding music ideas on his hard drive.

Few decent songs, few duds as well. 

Need your head checking if you think it's better than +44

Thank you.  This is just the accurate take.

Adrenaline is a banger that’s about it 

This was factually their best song.

I like it whenever a friend puts them on or it comes up randomly but not something I'd go out of my way to listen to. 

That's California's spot ❤️

What fucking friend is putting this on?  Seriously, it's a bit of a deep find for non blink die hards.

1+44

2 Bcr

3 Transplants

4 Tom's odds and ends

5 Ava

This is the way.  Except, fuck Transplants a bit.  They are okay, I'd definitely take some Tom/Ava over them.  

BCR is an easier listen, some better songs, but a bit redundant. +44 is just slightly higher quality piece start to finish.  Strip away all the effects/experimentation, and +44 is a better written album.

Cat Like Thief and Chapter 8 for me as top picks.

So many to choose from though.

Simple Creatures was a nice little time for Mark to do some non-Cali.  It had it's moments, the videos were pretty fun too, and just Mark stepping outside of his ultra comfort zone and doing what he wants to do is refreshing.

That said, there are some grating effects/vocals on both of them that simply induce a migraine.  I get that was part of the aesthetic, but damn.  Otherwise, they had some good melodies and parts.

It comes up sometimes in a party place like Ghent's garage or on the golf course with our friend group?  We are all blink die hards lol.......

Maybe I am just envious.  I don't have any blink fans to bump music to with.  It's almost always me having to force it upon a couple friends that will fake smile along with it and never offer to bump anything but Feeling This or play ATST at their wedding, which is a given now.
