Blink-182 [Edited] by blink-182

Pros: Mature new sound, cameo from The Cure's Robert Smith.
Cons: Negligible lyrical content.

Blink-182 has always struck me as the son of Green Day. Just as Green Day's early work was kind of jokey, Blink's brand of pop-punk has always been pretty joke-intensive. While I own "Enema Of The State" and "Take Off Your Pants..." nothing turned my ...

Pros: A very good Blink 182 album
Cons: Its still Blink 182

I remember my "experience" seeing Blink 182 live in concert for the first time quite vividly. Most notably, I remember it for the sense of abject fear placed in my mind. I suppose I should explain. A few years back, the British second-wave ska band ...

Pros: some solid experimentation and songs, Travis Barker's drumming
Cons: poor lyrics, failed experimentation, very uneven

When it comes to Blink 182, there are usually two opinions that music fans have of them. They either like them or they hate them. There are very few anywhere in the middle. Some of the criticism has been admittedly justified, given their ...

Pros: It proves an for an interesting album with decent music.
Cons: Maturity isn't proved with more emotion.

For a band that sang of Asian friends and having sex with someone’s mother, a serious side was almost impossible. For a band that claimed to be punk but was actually pop, good music was ridiculous claim. Is it possible for Blink 182 to have ...

Pros: Great new songs, Tom does more singing.
Cons: No funny jokes about bestiality.

Okay, i bought this album the week in Novemeber it came out over here - only because I saw the release date on the internet. Blink had not really promoted the album at that stage (now it's taking off with the success of 'I Miss You'). I took it home ...

Pros: Really good lyrics by mark and thomas and excellent drum play by travis
Cons: they were serious in this cd

Blink had not really promoted the album at that stage (now it's taking off with the success of 'I Miss You'). I took it home and stuck it in the Cd player and I felt safe in the knowledge that the first song 'Feeling This' resembled the Blink 182 of ...

Pros: More Mature Material, all the good aspects of Blink
Cons: It's a bit different from their old stuff, often Box Car like (could be good)

I've always been a blink fan. Enema of the state got me hooked and after that I went on to get some older albums (dude ranch) as well as their new stuff (pants and jacket). I must also admit that I'm a bit fan of Tom and Travis' side project Box Car ...

Pros: Um...well...nothing, really.
Cons: Think of something related to music. Whatever you thought of, that is a problem. Stinks.

You know, when Blink-182 came out with a CD in late 2003, I was very excited. They've been making great punk-pop music since the early 90's, and I thought that I was in store for another great album. How wrong I was. They self-titled this album ...

Pros: Great songs, meaningful lyrics, videos come along with CD
Cons: Darker and more mature material, no jokes

I must say that when I first heard that blink-182 was coming out with a "mature" and "experimental" album, I was taken aback with shock. The same guys that wrote songs about the desire to have intercourse with a dog and made jokes about p--ises and all ...

Pros: Some good songs, Better lyrics, Strong musicians
Cons: 'The fallen syndrome' Vocals dont fit in with the music all the time.

'Well I guess this is growing up'. It seems an age since we first heard the chirpy pop punk vocals of Mark and Tom utter these famous words, but its taken them this long to finally do it upon the release of their newest album, the effortlessly titled ...

Pros: A new era for Blink
Cons: none really

This record is in my opinion the best thing since "Dude Ranch", which is mostly everyones favorite record of the band's. They HAVE grown a lot, much better than their last record "Take off your pants and jacket" for sure. You won't even realize it's ...

Pros: Blink's grown up
Cons: Will this alienate their fan base?

To be completely open and honest, I’ve always kind of had a soft spot for the sophomoric ridiculousness that is Blink-182. In between much of the banal tripe, this band has had many solid singles including "Adam’s Song" and "Stay Together for the Kids". ...

Pros: Same people "only different", some good songs.
Cons: Most the cd is bad, no jokes, NOT BLINK-182!

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!? Is what I ask myself everytime, this album is mentioned. The best of the best has been destroyed. And now is gone forever, or so I DON'T hope. I was what I thought of as a HUGE blink-182 fan, really big, like bigger than a ...

Pros: More core crunching riffs but also more mature songs from the fantastic Trio.
Cons: The fallen syndrome is sh*t, thats the only con of the album.

This latest album from the punk pop trio is an excellent installment to their collection. Since problems with their personal lives Tom and Mark have grown up and thought to themselves that they do not want to write cheesy chorus catching songs anymore ...

Pros: Has the song "Feeling This"
Cons: Not along the same theme that Blink 182 has put out in the past.

I am a die hard Blink 182 fan, I have enjoyed the music they have done for many years, seen them in concert, etc. So to give it a whirl these are my thoughts on the album... First Impression: After the second song I am asking, is this really ...
