I'm a bit sad Mark hasn't posted anything about the death of Chester. They have just toured together and were supposed to do so again later this year. Matt, Travis and Tom have all posted something.. I guess the blink post is kind of his (Mark's) words as well. I just can't believe they weren't good friends :/ Btw I'm quite into the Box Car Racer album these days. It's really some of Tom's best work outside blink

fcpunk Sometimes silence can be the most respectful during situations like these. If he truly didn't care about Chester, nor anyone else that might be grieving.. he wouldn't of preformed at the concert dedicated to the devastating late singer. People have their own ways to deal with things, and I guess Mark's way of doing so is through silence. You kind of guess that since it took him years to even talk about Tom, and his repeated leaving of the band. And, it took him time to even comment on the state of their friendship years ago as well. Mark has frequent signs of silence being one of his comforts during emotional times. I also agree that Box Car Racer is one of Tom's best work outside of blink, it was great to see him release some of that on-going anger he had through the music he did with the project. With blink, my personal favourite track is, Boring. And, my favourite album is Dude Ranch even though I pretty much like everything blink makes equally. But, if I had to choose it would definitely be Dude Ranch for sure.

Blink 182 - along with Sum 41 - was a band that accompanied me through and throughout my youth. My favorite albums were Enema Of The State and by far their self-titled one. I especially loved the direction they were going with their self-titled album. Songs like Violence, Stockholm Syndrome and Asthenia. I loved the harder and more experimental vibes on this one. For me it was a promising development after TOYPAJ. Of course I was a bit frustrated when I had found out Tom had left the band some time later. By the time he rejoined the band I already had moved on to other bands/music genres, but I was still interested to know what they would come up with after that long hiatus (and cause their last album) so I gave their new sound a chance and listened to Neighborhoods a couple times. I didn‘t like their new sound though. It was like they had heated up old stuff without adding anything new to it. It was also way too pop for me. I had always loved Travis for his excellent skills and unique techniques, but even his hands seemed to be bored on that album. While other bands like Sum 41 kept on improving, Blink 182 seemed to be kinda stuck in their genre and old ideas in my opinion. It was the same old same old all over again and again. So I stopped paying attention to them after Neighborhoods. I just now spotted this thread and gave Blame It On My Youth a try. I don‘t regret to have quit them a while ago. Yet again old ideas boiled up without any developments or excitement for that matter.

New song Happy Days is a Mark solo song. In general, I like it. But the very beginning of the song is a little bit stolen

Honestly I’m a little disappointed with the new songs. Thought California was fantastic and you could really see what Matt brought to Blink. These are just meh. It’s sad, I love blink, adore matt and really liked the way they were heading with California.

It’s sad, I love blink, adore matt and really liked the way they were heading with California. Whilst I kinda stand by this for the singles I actually really love the album as a whole after a few listens. Matts songs inparticular are fab. Some of them just make me think “blink verse alkaline trio chorus” and it’s a lovely combo
