Product Description
From Amazon.com
While Blink-182's pop-punk has given more than its share of entertaining moments over their career, "sonic experimentation" is hardly what you'd expect from their sixth studio album. Within their guitar-bass-drums template, however, they offer moments of playfulness and lyricism that stretch their definition of sound. The tempo changes and uses of (relative) silence in "Violence" and "Stockholm Syndrome" borrow post-punk conventions, and lend a new feel to the band's trademark cranked-upness. (The use of treated piano on the latter song also suggests that they’ve bent an ear to a few psychedelic-pop classics in their time.) As with 2001's Take Off Your Pants and Jacket, a theme of loneliness emerges upon the first couple of listens, but this time it feels as if Blink wants to connect it to something larger than before. Growth from the guys who once jokingly celebrated man-on-dog intercourse? Yeah. And best of all, it's worth hearing. --Rickey Wright

WOW (as in it's terrible),
By
This review is from: Blink 182 (Audio CD)
I have only listened to this cd a couple times, and that was 2 times too many. I was a pretty big Blink fan before I heard this cd. I don't care about whether they are punk rock or not (they're not) as long as the music is good. I used to think the music is good. I don't mind stupid lyrics and untalented musicians (Travis is good) as long as the songs are infectious and amusing. However, I guess the boys got tired of being called un-talented and got tired of hearing how much they sucked live, and have tried very hard to become "artists." Bad idea. This cd is so bad. I really can't understand how it's popular. It's slow, annoying, not catchy. And there is a long part where a girl reads a letter out loud, to no kind of rhythm or anything, it's just talking. Now who in their right mind could call that music, and even more, enjoy it?! Wow. Please, go back to your old style of music, good lord.

THIS IS NOT PUNK ROCK!!!!!!!,
By james gibbons (charleston, sc United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blink 182 (Audio CD)
I hate blink 182 and other bands like them. They claim to be punk rock and the fact of the matter is that punk is dead and it is because of bands like this. Stop watching mtv and go to your local record store and pick up some old school punk, better yet if you like 182 then dont because i dont want any more posers out there making the scene even worse

This what happens when it takes a year to record,
By "stivb" (Sewaren, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Blink 182 (Audio CD)
I consider myself a die hard Blink fan, but this album was pretty bad. All the other Blink albums took 2 weeks to record, this one a year. This one is nothing like the sound they invented. Hopefully, they'll play what comes natural, and record a good CD. Another one like this, and Mark and Tom will serving fast food for a living!!
