I wonder what the hell triggered this whole optimistic God-loving change. Maybe he had a near-death experience like Kanye West...
He's just gone crazy. Still a nice guy, hopefully not just because loving from fans feeds his ego. Does anyone actually "get" him?

Here it is for anyone who's having trouble with that link.
Former Blink-182 frontman Tom DeLonge is sick of being accused of maturity.
"Everyone thinks I'm this crazy serious artist now but I still do and say as much stupid shit as I ever have," the Angels and Airwaves frontman says.
"The naked thing doesn't happen quite as much but I'll never get sick of dick jokes."
Since the demise of the frequently nude pop-punk pranksters Blink-182, DeLonge has done much to deserve the "mature" label. He has become a father for the second time and proven himself a capable entrepreneur with his clothing (Atticus), footwear (Macbeth) and online shopping (loserkids.com) companies. Adding legitimacy to the accusations is Angels' music: moody, anthemic and patently more mature than Blink's three-chord punk.
DeLonge started Angels last year, swiftly declaring Blink's "indefinite hiatus" definite.
"I think people are still wondering, 'Is this a side project?' or, 'What is this going to be for the future?'" he says. "I'm just saying it's gonna be the biggest band in the world."
His former bandmates, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker, have started their own band, +44, and last month admitted to writing a song that blamed Blink's end on DeLonge.
"All the great songs, the great songwriters are singing about things that have affected them emotionally," DeLonge says. "And it doesn't make me feel anything. I would expect it, actually.
"I have songs about [the break-up], too, except mine are, kind of, more indirect. In a sense, mine were more about starting a new life and being optimistic and excited about the future. And I'm not saying that as though I know what theirs are about because I have not listened to their record."
DeLonge has not spoken with Barker or Hoppus since last year. He says he is glad the band no longer exists.
"The last couple of years were kind of painful. They were getting painful. I'm glad that we moved on. At this moment in time, it's kind of like a fresh break-up, like it would be between a guy and a girl, you just need your space. I hope one day we'll figure it out. But as far as music goes and my career goes, I've found my home for the rest of my life."
DeLonge says the end of Blink was a pivotal influence in writing We Don't Need to Whisper, Angels' debut album, which is full of riffs, introspection and jolts of stadium-worthy refrains.
"Where I was in my life, I was pretty depressed coming out of that break-up and wanted to sing something that really picked me up," he says. "The [Angels'] record was more therapy for myself than anything. I figured if I sang anthems that made myself feel good, imagine what it could do for other people."
At the least, DeLonge hopes his anthems will inspire fans to quit using eyeliner and sadness as markers of style.
"I wanted to make being excited cool, because every other band wants to dress up in f---ing make-up and act like they're pissed about everything," he says.
"I don't want to put on a bunch of make-up and walk around going: 'I'm angry at my parents.' It's like, Jesus Christ, f---ing get over it. Be excited, go outside and feel good. 'Cause you know what? It's a choice and it's kind of addictive when you do it."
Looks like he won't be shaking the mature tag any time soon.

Thank you kindly ma'am.
That didn't seem too bad... aside from AVA being the biggest band in the world. He said that he's happy Blink "broke up" cause they needed their space... who could be happy being miserable in a band? It's not that big of a deal... just the claims of AVA being the best thing ever are the main ones that get to me...

fuck Tom. and Angels & Airwaves. one of the most boring albums i've heard in my life, in all honesty. just my opinion, but i couldn't, and can't, tolerate it in the least.
on ther other hand, Plus44 is going to be absolutely amazing :-D

10/20/06, 11:23 PM
this guy has really lost his mind. you can see it more and more with each interview he does. AvA will never be the biggest band in the world. hell, they are struggling just to get a gold record.
its funny because just five years ago i never imagined Blink 182 would be one of those "behind the music" type bands with all the drama and shit. things have really changed.
im curious to see how he's going to make AVA the biggest band in the world. it could happen because what im hearing these days is pretty fucking upsetting.

10/20/06, 11:26 PM
poor guy. i can't imagine how much it would suck to be the only real expendable part of a band like Blink and to have to overcompensate as much as he's had to...
edit: "only real expendable part" might have been a bit of an exaggeration, but he made me say it.
garlicgirl1210
10/20/06, 11:27 PM

but like he said, people (like me) still think that he is a "crazy serious artist" now.

10/20/06, 11:33 PM
Most people in bands actually want their band to be the biggest thing in the world.
And also... surely if you say things like that it just means you are absolutely loving what you're doing.. who cares if he says it really? Until they start brainwashing people and building up an army to take over the world... it's just words.
Having said this I still think he's gone a bit mad haha. I hope they do work things out one day though.

plus 44 will be mediocre at most.
the songs are slow, boring, sad, and mark just seems interested in whinging whenever he does an interview.
before AVA had released the whole album and from the couple of songs they had heard people were saying the excat same thing.
id wait till you actually hear the album before you say that.
im happy for tom that hes happy with AVA, even tho some of the shit he says is wack, but he always says it with a laugh.

Hahah fuck tom too bad I love what plus 44 sounds so much better than that bore ava is. The only reason why tom is outta his fucking mind is cause so many people gave into this stupid band. Their music doesn't move me and the lyrics have no heart to me. Plus 44 does and I'm glad mark and travis are sticking to what they do best music wise. They should never look back and never speak to tom cause I hope he hits his all time low and that ava dies out next album so he can get his head outta his ass and stop being a ego maniac cocky dick
Its a shame
He used to be my idol growing up when I was really young

are you serious? i'm no ava fanboy or anything, but songs off "we dont need to whisper" are actually enjoyable. +44 is sounding pretty much like the worst of any side/full project any of them has ever done.

I think Tom DeLonge's a bit of an ass, but I like what he said about going outside and feeling good being a choice. I thought all the songs on the AVA album sort of sounded the same, like it was one really long song that wasn't terrible, but wasn't great.

I love Blink and always will. I have always liked mark much more, I prefer his voice anyday.
this article in my opniion didn't showcase the normal crackpot tom delonge, and i liked that. it's a shame that the people who have read this and responded didn't even read it they just saw tom delonge hapy blink broke up and trashed him. the dude said he hopes someday that they can al get together and make amends, if not musically then friendship at least. music doesn't last forever everyone shoul be glad blink lasted as long as it did. and as for being the biggest band, supposedly tom has some terrific surprises to go along with the record that he has not unveiled yet and if you truly love blink then you will give the guy a chance to redeem himself of his mediocre album and off the wall comments.
p.s. i <3 tom and <x3 travis. mark is cool though

I think what most people need to remember is the fact that Mark/Travis have been together more so than the members of Angels and Airwaves and have basically stuck to a Blink-esque sound while Tom moved onto a new sound. Tom was basically in uncharted waters singing a whole album by himself that was not ripping/darkening Blink's sound like Box Car Racer did. I personally think Plus 44 is going to come off more as a side project ala Box Car Racer while Angels and Airwaves showcases more of a new sound although some of those songs could definitely have been Blink songs. I still think you need to give Tom the benefit of the doubt because he's got big dreams. The problem is most of the people who are listening to music don't have grandoise dreams or ambitions but wait for someone else to show them what can be accomplished. I also feel that most people can not comprehend the feeling of trying to be better than themselves. Just think about it.. You love a girl and you want to tell the entire world... Tom loves the music he's playing and the thing is.. The people who bitch and moan about every interview he does are no better than the people who bitch and moan about Terrell Owens because you really don't have to listen.

Angels and Airwaves is something I was very excited for, but let me down. I mean, it's not awful or anything, but it's definitely not "the greatest band in the history of the world" or whatever he claims it is.
blink-182 is and always will be one of my favorite bands ever, and the best part about them was how laid back they were and how they never claimed to be serious or try to make something "mind blowing" (including the 2003 s/t disc), even though they did.
The beauty about this break-up is that Tom has been more open and blunt, and hurt a lot of blink fans and disappointed all of them (at least from what I've noticed), while Mark & Travis have sat on the sidelines, making an album worthy of winning claims, ones Tom is not receiving with AvA.

Word.
Angels and Airwaves would be an amazing album if tom would of shut the fuck up for all of 2005. Seriously, Its only medicore to me because of all the hype he created. To anyone who says plus44 is mediocre thats fine, but keep in mind that Plus44 were silent while recording. They did not do thousands of press claiming that their former "frontman" went ape shit crazy, they just kept quiet. Now that the record is done and on its way out of course they're going to stay their share of feelings....
Over all though i think that the records that will impact the most will be both AVAs 2nd and Plus 44's 2nd. IF both bands ever make it that far (i hope they do.) I say this because i feel that both these records as it is are just hate towards eachother and it seems for AVA tom did everything and then went out and hand picked 3 dudes to play the other instruments. Mark and Travis on the other hand seemed to write it together and it seems as though they found people the same way.....
I think their 2nd albums will tell wether or not which band is better because it will have full collaberation from everyone. I think Plus44 could be an amazing stadium band better than AVA just cuz tom has no balls and can't let his music speak for himself. He is not creating anything different he is just a medicore wanna be indie kid. Acting so pretentious like, fuck him i gurantee he watched Garden State one day with his wife and then was like "WHOA i like the shins" and then started waving around his arms like he does in that gay video.

ya tom can be nuts at times.... im not disputing that... ya blink was great... but you know what.. not all good things last forever.. its time was up.. toms still finding his feet, and he'll be back.
Im not sure why so many people thought AvA was going to be revolutionary..... it was exactly what i expected from tom.
love it or not... im sure it doesnt bother him... he's living his dream... a few pesimists on a site filled with 10 000 music snobs on a site won't make a fuck of a difference.

"Former Blink-182 frontman Tom DeLonge..."
Come on, everyone knows Mark was the front of the band!
You're dumb. Please stop living.

Arrogance. And I didn't even like the album. Everything sounded the same to me.

blink will come back.
everyone knows it.
As much as I would like to think it will...I think there is a better chance of the Ramones getting back together.
And who the hell ever asked Tom to put on makeup???

So then why are you even responding to this link if you don't like either band? Go away.

I swear I don't understand people. Everyone was all hyped when the AVA album came out and LOVED IT. But then when Mark came out with his interview and bashed Tom then everyone is like AVA sucks, Tom sucks, their music sucks. Shut up already. Its funny how Mark said in the interview how a lot of the AVA songs sounded the same to HIM and then immediatly EVERYONE was like "yeah, the songs sound the same and the lyrics aren't that well written blah blah blah..." right after MARK said this. Get a life people. Stop making The Tom and Mark thing your business and basing your opinions about AVAs music by what Mark or other have to say. Is it the cool thing to do now or what? Geez.

EVERYONE was not hyped about the AVA album and not EVERYONE loved it. If EVERYONE was hyped and loved it, it would be the most popular album in the world which it's not.

You don't have to take the word "everyone" so literal. You know what I meant.
I still think Box Car Racer was the best spin-off band from blink-182.

I have to agree. A&A is a close second.
Fuck Tom Delonge, AVA was a letdown
