Thats cool, a very small part of me kept thinking that wasnt going to happen
That's really good. I'm glad to see that a more serious side of them can still be somewhat popular, and its even better that some really good music is getting out there to the people. This album was due just in time to cut a line though that mtv pop-punk crap that they're sometime associated with.

It's gone platinum, already? Holy shit. That's awesome.
This is an amazing fucking album. I couldn't of been more happy and pleased with it. My favourite record of 2003. Brilliant.
It's great that they went Platinum, but they really need to go multi-platinum to remain somewhat relevant. They can't be outsold by Good Charlotte! They just can't! It's looking like "All of This" is going to be the next single, since KROQ has started playing. It's a good choice in that it has the potential to be a crossover hit, being that it's more mellow and has Robert Smith. Good luck to Blink.

ewww. "they cannot be outsold by good charlotte". does cd sales mean anything? who cares if they dont sell as many as GC. im glad that theyre music doesnt appeal to the likes of what GCs music appeals to. Also, the new blink cd was available for download almost 2 months before it came out. the only song i couldnt get was the fallen interlude. so basically the cd was being pirated for a long time; hence record sales will fall. its so irrelevant that u want them to be multi-platinum. theyve already done more for music than what good charlotte will ever do. this site wouldnt be up if it wasnt for them. good charlotte didnt do that shit.

Thats good to hear the public hasnt forgot about them since the last few CDs....

Yes I meant "All Of This" was the third single. "I Miss You" has been at radio for over a month now, meaning old news. And to the people who got angry at me for my Blink/GC comparison, I didn't mean to ever say GC was relevant or anywhere close to the same level as Blink. I personally just get offended by the youthe of America's poor taste, in that over 2 million of them would buy GC's cd, and I'm hoping that there are enough people with good taste out there who will shell out $ to buy Blink's. I know record sales don't mean that much in this age and day, but they do hold stock when it comes to the way the record industry and radio judges and artist. Smaller radio stations in the U.S. play songs based largely on what's selling, and so in order for them to keep playing Blink, they have to sell albums.
