Box Car Racer Deluxe

[M!ke]

Alright, totally legit story time:

My buddy's friend's uncle used to work for Geffen.  He was recently cleaning out his attic and found a few interesting gems for music collectors, most of which were no interest to us, but he did have one that I found incredibly interesting, it appears to be an unreleased 'Deluxe' edition of Box Car Racer.

It is the same album with a few unique disparities: it has 3 more songs than the album ever had.  These include Mandy, Dance With Me (not to be confused with blink's Dance With Me), and what appears to be an early version of Terrified.  These 3 extra songs are all studio quality, the choruses of Terrified sound more or less the same as what we got on One More Time, but the verses do stand out as you can really hear that early 2000s Tom voice shining through.

@M!ke not to be a Debbie downer, but it’s AI. Just downloaded from your post and it’s identical to this:

 

 

I also posted “Dance With Me” in the AI thread . . . which you responded to.

 

 

Here's Terrified as well

Never, this is totally legit as I said.  From my friend's buddy's uncle.  I wouldn't know the first thing about assembling a fake 'what if?' blink related album.  That's not something I've ever done before.

Unrelated: my cousin's roomate's uncle's neighbor works for Nintendo and says that the Switch 2 is going to be more powerful than the Xbox Series X and will have glasses free 3D in handheld mode and connect with your Switch 1 to achieve the same kind of effect that Wii U GamePad did with the Wii U.  Can't wait!!!1111!!!!!

Been great, thanks for the concern! Sorry that my goofy little obvious as hell ARG isn't for everyone.  We all don't enjoy some silly fun and laughs I suppose.  Faux album is still very real to download though if you've ever enjoyed any of my similar releases in the past (my favorite is still Do It For The Kids.  Nine Point Five is pretty great too if you ask me).

while the do it for the kid thing sound all broken its realy interesting 2 see the sort of musical part it generates 2 mix diff parts of their previous songs, thats why i believe that blink still got it in them to make good songs theres alot of creativy possiblity within band style

Was this written by an outdated AI?

I would agree for the simple fact that the first video appeared fine but in the second one travis's snare does not match with the audio. neither do tom's vocals; those are either extremely delayed or are generated by an ai that has not been perfectly trained to create videos. if bcr went to the lengths to make this video theyre going to complete it. also the final video shows omt's cover and is unironically titled blink-182; terrified (box car racer Tom's vocals).

I figure if they can give us a picture then either they've got superior AI that should be shared with more of us or they've actually got the album. In which case auction it off or keep it.

I suggest you reread this entire thread and see if you can spot any oozing sarcasm and the like from the very start. I'm honestly surprised by how what I was doing went over some people's heads.  Having said that, the deluxe album I speak of is a very real download all the same.

Well Speedo seemed genuinely confused in the other thread where I wrote the exact same thing.

yeah I know it's very unlikely I was going to use that as a convenient way to verify

i don't feel like going through the thread
