Advantages: surprisingly good pop-punk Disadvantages: mark hoppus
Now, I?m not the sort of person to put needless pressure onto a band that have undoubted talent, yet with Blink182 I have this urge to hit them with something hard. For years and years they have released albums with unlimited potential, yet they ruin it by basing their songs on ridiculous subjects such as masturbation. Now, I understand that this is all for the fun of the music and for the entertainment of the fans, but in all honestly if they ever intended to be taken seriously by the music media, then they had to shape up or ship out. Two thirds of the band, Tom DeLonge and Travis Barker, took time out from the writing process for this album to go and release a debut album as part of the band Box Car Racer. The undoubted success of that album, portraying Tom and Travis in a much more professional light, gives real incentive and shows ...
Advantages: Some strong songs showing the maturity of the band Disadvantages: The odd weak track here and there, and what would be the band's last album...
Produced in 2003, Blink182's self-titled album, which would result in being their last studio one, arrived with a huge, international fanbase - hungry from more from one of the world's biggest punk bands.
Opening track and single 'Feeling This' can feel like a jumble of musical elements on first impressions, which is a shame as it is genuinely a cleverly layered piece of music - many of you will have definitely heard this, with it having been played on numerous music channels at it's time of release.
'Obvious' gives us some heavy guitar riffs, that build up the tempo as the song goes on, in a similar style to a number of Blink's earlier releases. The repetition of Tom DeLonge's vocals singing the same thing over and over again can becoming annoying to the weaker listener - you have been warned!!
'I Miss You' is another single ...
Advantages: Great selection of just there singles through the years Disadvantages: The pace of the album changes often
there legacy will turn out to be. The song is about if it is worth being single or can he actually get a girlfriend.
3. Dammit
A lively tune about what it is like when you see your ex-girlfriend, but your friends are always there to pick you up. This would have to be the main song on the album for any skates, it's fast, bouncy and you really get into the main chorus. Which is repeat 'This is Growing up' which gets you into the sprit of it.
4. Josie (Everything's Gonna Be Fine)
This is about how your girlfriend is always making you feel happy and loved. This really is one of them songs that are not the best of tunes, that's why the words are the main thing on this song. This would have to be the weakest part of the album, but since I am a 'Blink182' fan I know that you do get into the song and end up liking it as much and just ...
