Another 🐐

Tom Delonge: "This song starts with the transmission of our conversation when we land on the moon. It's really weird to hear this song talking to Houston. The whole song's theme is about these two guys sitting in their spaceship, no bigger than a car, they're looking through the window and see the space, they can see the Earth. The idea is that they can die up there but that it's maybe worse getting back down on earth. 'Let me die in space.' Asthenia means the loss of all vital conditions."

This is of the many songs that to me just screams Tom Delonge. It's f***ing art. This guy is up in space. He's probably been there for a long time. He misses Earth. He misses his girl. He's so far away but he's looking down at the planet and knows she's down there somewhere. He's so alone up there.

Never rlly fw'd All of this back then but I grew to appreciate it. such a good collab

I’m going to post 14 facts about self titled blink-182

Here is number 1.

1. Self-titled isn’t the same as untitled
Doing a self-titled album as your fifth full-length is a statement of intent. This is this band as they are meant to be. Sure, we’ve done a bunch of other stuff, but this is it now, this is us, undiluted, honed to perfection. blink were adamant that the album was in fact untitled, itself a statement coming on the heels of two of the most beautifully puerile album titles in history, Enema Of The State and Take Off Your Pants And Jacket.

“The worst thing in the world that could happen is people think we are trying to make some big bold statement,” explained Tom. ​“That’s why we try to say it is not self-titled; it is just untitled. We didn’t want to label it with anything. We didn’t want to label it with a joke title that people might expect. We didn’t want to label it with some serious phrase that the whole record would have to somehow relate to. We left it untitled so it would speak for itself.” Before reaching that idea, though, the band considered a few names more in the vein of Enema and Pants: Diarrhea de Janeiro, Use Your Erection I & II and Vasectomy, Vasect-a-you were all considered.

I was thinking for a nice short project if interested, I can work around the time. Is anyone up for a dogs eating dogs ep session and then neighbourhood’s next ?

Their last good project

I KNOW I BEEN LOOKING INTO IT TOO

that merch aged like wine tho that’s crazy more relevant than ever

EDIT: oh s*** this photo size is perfect! onto print it

Seeing Enema of the State performed live >>>>>>

That’s an awesome idea !!!

oh that was with new line up tho right

matt sounds so bad live

but u got to hear dysentery live

2. Aim high – it can’t hurt, right?
The untitled album, for a lot of its running time, doesn’t really sound like blink-182. Or rather, it doesn’t sound like the blink people knew and loved, the young, dumb, three-chord catchy sing-alongable crowd pleasers. There’s a lot more ambition on show, with long instrumental sections drawing influence from a much wider field than the band’s big-shorts So-Cal roots, while still maintaining enough of the angst and killer hooks that had got them where they were. It’s a mixed bag, but an impressive one.
Looking back at it, Mark told MTV: “That album changed everything for blink-182. The way we write songs, the manner in which we record them, the way we think of ourselves as a band, everything. It marked a huge turning point in our career. I think it changed the way people thought of us, too. We were no longer the silly skate punk kids from California. Well, we were – and we still are – but from then on there was something more.”

Yeah I mean without Tom, it’s not exactly the same but still man, seeing Travis and Mark is still one of a kind. Especially Travis. Like his drumming in a live setting is simply unreal

saw them live with tom and man when travis does his drums set >>>>

Sounds phenomenal

Bro I’m happy for you this sounds so
Epic !!
