Always forget what a great album Neighbourhoods actually is.

They absolutely nailed the transition from the Interlude into Heart’s All Gone.

Also it’s massively clear that Cure copying Tom is miles better at Blink 182 songs than Matt Skiba.

Stick to your guns pal - Warning is a fabulous album, especially when you consider the band was literally on the verge of splitting up. The title track plods and Minority has been overplayed, but the rest is brilliant - Jackass would be in my top 5 GD songs for example.

It’s so under-rated, even by some GD uber fans, but I believe it’s the hidden gem within their catalogue.

Oh yeah, Jackass is one of my absolute favorites of theirs too. I had no idea they were on the verge of splitting up, probably because the album is so great. It was an instant classic for me.

I’m sure this wasn’t what you meant but that reads like you’re speculating that “they were on the verge of spilling up because the album is so great” :smiley:

and if that was what you meant, even better! :smiley: :smiley:

I’m going to start telling everyone this is why the Pumpkins broke up in 2000.

Mark Hoppus has shared on Instagram that he’s battling cancer and undergoing chemo.

Awful news……

He shared a photo of himself in hospital - which I think he’s since deleted. I only saw it because a friend (a massive Blink fan) took a screenshot and sent it to me. Really wish he hadn’t. :pensive:

Awh no :disappointed:

I only just found out like 2 weeks ago that Travis had nearly died in an airplane crash and got major burns years ago too.

Blink-182 were the first band I got into when I started getting into music and dressing a certain way. I found their documentary VHS in a bargain bin in Asda when I was like 11 and I cannot believe my mum let me watch that.

Gutted.

Fucking love Blink

#578

yeah, if i recall correctly Travis wouldn’t fly for years afterwards, used to get boats over for EU tours.

So much tragedy around such a “silly” band (whom I love, for the record)

Remember reading about that plane crash in detail… don’t think I’d be getting on one again after such an experience, real horrific stuff
