Scott. Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Every Other Weekend. I fucking love this one. It’s a complete Cure rip off but I love it. Sounds like it should be a single tbh, I can see it getting radio play. 8.5/10 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Chips Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Just now, Scott. said: No im listening now. My thinking is if I like these shit versions then the real thing will blow my cock off That's how I feel as well... it's like listening to a song played live through a crappy cam rip. If the song sounds good still even with such low quality then imagine how much more amazing the songs will be when we can finally hear all of the little nuances only available in high quality? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 I have to teach on an unfamiliar campus tomorrow and I have zero idea what's going on, so my first listen of the whole thing will be on the bus at 8am without a damn clue what I'm doing, sounds like it'll massively improve my morning or at least give me something to whine about later. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott. Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 One Night Stand - I fucking love this one, I loved it from the moment I heard that little clip. Probably my fave. That chorus is gold. Love the ‘do I run’ part before the chorus and the ‘do you’ part in the chorus I love. Tom sounds great. 9/10 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosferatu Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Listened to all the new tracks. They're not great in my opinion. Feel more like filler songs that belong on Nine & California. One issue for me is a lot of the tracks have the same chord progression in the chorus. One Night Stand, Every Other Weekend, Can't Go Back all have that chord progression in the chorus. It gets boring once I've heard it more than twice. Can't Go Back is an amazing song though, so I'm always gonna prefer that over the other two If You Never Left had a lot of potential based on the previews but it's that riff in the outro of the song I loved. The rest of the song was just a generic four chord song. Everyone Everywhere is so close to being perfect. The chorus feels more like a pre-chorus than a chorus. There should've been a better chorus after that part. The bridge is amazing. Arguably the best OMT bridge. The only other gripe I have with the song is Tom's voice sounds really harsh on one line of the chorus. I don't like how it sounds at all. Another take of that exact same line and melody should've been used without him sounding so harsh. Can't Go Back is the best by far and Everyone Everywhere isn't too far off. The rest I can deal without Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott. Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 If you never left - the weakest for me, I do like when songs start with the chorus, that’s cool. I love the outro, it sounds really pretty but I wish they could have worked that into the intro or something. Love the bridge. Just feels like the chorus is lacking something I dunno 7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucko Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Mad how everyone's opinions are so different. That's what makes blink special I guess, different songs for different people. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fran.182 Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 So glad we got one more great 80s blink tune with "Every Other Weekend". It's like "Just Like Heaven" melody (specially the bridge) set to "Friday I'm In Love" lyrics. "One Night Stand" is a banger and I love how specific the lyrics are. Just not so sure on the outro with the overlapping vocals... Those two and "Can't Go Back" are a step above the rest. Replace "Fell In Love", "Edging" and the two 30 second tracks with these three and the main album would be amazing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WPGBlink Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 I can't stop playing Every Other Weekend.... what a fun tune. The back half of the song kicks ass. Somebody mentioned it earlier, but this could slot in for Fell In Love on OMT easily and be such a nice upgrade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fran.182 Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 "Everyone Everywhere" has a great song buried somewhere in it, I just think it was rushed. Seems like a demo. Finally, "If You Never Left"... I think the Autopilot break-up lyrics kill it for me. Plus, my favorite part (the outro chimes) lasts a few seconds. Bridge is strong, but sounds shoehorned - "All In My Head" and "Everyone Everywhere" had similar issues between some sections... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 trying to find the other songs but ONS verse sounds like an Alkaline trio song with Mark then the chorus hits with Lifeforms style Tom...meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knapppers Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 If You Never Left is so good. Really thought the snippet we got was verse chorus bridge, but it's really bridge final chorus outro. Was a nice surprise to hear Tom's verse and then a half time chorus actually works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
