Blink Reuniting Speculation?!

[ghsNICK!]

Blink-182 is featured in Kerrang! as reuniting 2009.

http://www2.kerrang.com/newissue/
http://www2.kerrang.com/2008/11/kerrang_magazine_26112008.html

They also took Geffen off of their site and switched to Interscope?

Something strange is going on...Just saying...
Sorry if this has been posted btw.

[MorbidCuriosity]

Meh, don't care either way.
And Kerrang is vomit-worthy.

[ghsNICK!]

I definitely think they'll have a record out before 2012.
With everything from Jerry Finn to Travis Barker and Mark posting on his blog...
I have no doubt of a reunion.

[erinfxs]

not even kidding that was on my new years wishlist,
wow.

[YouAteMyDog182]

Definitely not going to happen in the near future.
Though I creamed myself when I first saw the article.
They're just basing the speculation off of Marks post from his site, because they finally talked and all that jazz, everyone instantly was like oh snap! Reunion!
But yea.

yea, at the end of blink, Tom mentioned he was talking with interscope records about recording new music and all the drug induced hype he started, haha.

Though he never explained why he went from Geffen to Interscope.

[MADSTA]

Sigh.

[KidRobot]

3 years?


It will not take that long.

[JustinDM]

They're posing it as a question in the magazine. I bet they do it to sell copies, and in the end come to the conclusion that mark and tom talked but have no idea if they will reunite. Just like Mark's blog said.

[Laur3l]

please please please pleaseeeeeee

[Nourez]

I'm willing to bet the article will be a whole lot of nothing.

[ghsNICK!]

I'm willing to bet the article will be a whole lot of nothing.
Agreed. But for fans that don't check Mark's blog this will be good news for them.

[Troggy]

Do they need more money?

[robat19]

Tom DeLonge is an assbag

[thesafeword]

Holy shit, don't care.

[Laur3l]

Tom DeLonge is an assbag


yeapp

[morgan_w]

I've been reading about it too, I hope they do!!!

[viva la cymche!]

They had a good run. But I'm sick of hearing about it. They will never reunite ever.

[ghsNICK!]

Tom DeLonge is an assbag
wah wah, cry some more.

[AussieBoy]

to be honest i wouldnt mind one more +44 album to come out before they do... not unless thats gonna take more than 12-16 months though

[fadedmemories]

I wouldn't believe it until Blink makes it official

[robat19]

wah wah, cry some more.

It's the truth...

[Angry Tom]

I just don't see this happening- ever

[Nourez]

Tom DeLonge is an assbag

This

I wouldn't believe it until Blink makes it official

Agreed.

[perfectstranger]

they should, but i can see tom's ego or whatever getting in the way. and even if they do, he will probably take creative control. so i don't know if i want them to or not.

[Nourez]

Ya, if they do reform I don't want it to just be AVA with Mark and Travis.

[SanePsychotic]

If they reunite then I will be tempted to throw myself off of a building. :nod:

[Paulb-182]

Ya, if they do reform I don't want it to just be AVA with Mark and Travis.

it will be somewhere in between, thats what made blink so good in the first place

all their different influences were brought together and made a unique sound

[SanePsychotic]

Blink-182's sound is anything but unique. How about generic pop-punk, more emphasis on the pop than the punk?

[thehereaway]

I see a blink reunion definitely happening, but i'm personally not too fussed as i find their music pretty boring now.

[the1]

They were the band that spawned most of the generic stuff, so it doesnt make them generic. It aint their fault a load fo bands have just tried to ape them in recent times

[thesafeword]

You can like Blink-182, but calling them original is ridiculous.

[BSS182]

Being original is overrated!

[narca9]

Blink-182's sound is anything but unique. How about generic pop-punk, more emphasis on the pop than the punk?

And by that you mean they created that genre right? Because without blink the majority of pop punk bands would either not exist or be waaaay different.

Evolution of punk

The Clash > (big era of emptiness) > Nirvana > Green Day (Dookie era obviously) > Blink 182 > Fall Out Boy

You all know its true. Blink did to GreenDay's sound what Green Day did to grunge. Blink made it pop-ier, then FOB took the pop part to the next level.

[narca9]

And the possibility of seeing blink 182 live has made me cream my pants multiple times already.

Lol "big era of emptiness."
Shut up

[bradsonemanband]

if blink reunites, i will fly across america to see it their first show back!

the thought of them making a new record kinda of scares me a little bit though, honestly... the direction tom has been going (and his big-headed-ness), and travis pretty much only doing hip hop, and mark's boring as hell plus-44 album, i don't see them all coming together in a real good way, especially without jerry finn behind the boards.

before they even think about a new album, they have to do a full US tour or two to make sure everything is seriously good between them all. we don't want them to break up again due to creative differences a year after they reunite, ya know?

the end.

[MorbidCuriosity]

Blink 182 are power-pop. The Buzzcocks are pop punk.

[Nourez]

They were the band that spawned most of the generic stuff, so it doesnt make them generic. It aint their fault a load fo bands have just tried to ape them in recent times

I agree. They were generic before everyone else was generic

And the possibility of seeing blink 182 live has made me cream my pants multiple times already.

I never got a chance to see em live back when they were together, so I'd love to see a reunion happen. Generic or not, Blink is one of those bands I've always wanted to see live.

Blink 182 are power-pop. The Buzzcocks are pop punk.

Hmm. Maybe. I'd call the earlier stuff pop punk, but I can understand calling the later stuff popwer pop. Honestly, people really gotta stop being such genre whores. If you like a song/band, does it really matter whether they are one genre or another?

[narca9]

Lol "big era of emptiness."
Shut up

Ok fine Bad Religion counts...

[viva la cymche!]

Your a fucking idiot.

[Kid B]

Haha FOB = punk? Hahaha

Evolution of Emo

Rites of Spring + Embrace > Cap'N Jazz > big era of emptiness > Bands with singers who piss on girls

[flyeast]

Who said anything about Bad Religion? You don't know what you're talking about, please, sit down before you hurt yourself.

[DaveZeroZero]

blah blah blah more unfounded rumors blah blah blah

No, they did not "create that genre" they merely made it poppier so it would appeal to the masses better.

Green Day and grunge have nothing to do with eachother other than Green Day is what happened after grunge. What you're suggesting is that Green Day is grunge, which is laughable.

Also, during that big "big era of emptiness" were a lot of great bands that you're just totally overlooking. Maybe you should do some research and not just go by what was mainstream at the time.

[pennie]

I love how everyone thinks they know so much more than everyone else on here when it comes to music, it makes me laugh :)

[Circa1628]

I don't see them putting out new music, but they will probably do a reunion tour

[SanePsychotic]

I love how everyone thinks they know so much more than everyone else on here when it comes to music, it makes me laugh :)

I don't pretend to know everything there is to know about music or even individual genres, but there's somethings that everyone who's interested in a particular genre should know. It's ignorance.

[Posthardcore]

They will get back together. No Doubt

[viva la cymche!]

I love how everyone thinks they know so much more than everyone else on here when it comes to music, it makes me laugh :) Some people do. Stop trying to act so aloof. Just go and listen to Enter Shikari or whatever shit you listen to.

[narca9]

Why do people think I'm leaving bands like JEW out? They may be a good band but how exactly did they change the genre?

LETS ALL FREAK OUT AND NOT TAKE SOMETHING SIMPLE WITH A GRAIN OF SALT LIKE ITS SUPPOSED TO BE TAKEN MOAN MOAN MOAN.

[viva la cymche!]

LETS ALL FREAK OUT AND NOT TAKE SOMETHING SIMPLE WITH A GRAIN OF SALT LIKE ITS SUPPOSED TO BE TAKEN MOAN MOAN MOAN. Jimmy Eat World has left more an imprint on the genre than Blink-182 has. Maybe not mainstream wise, however.

[SanePsychotic]

Jimmy Eat World has left more an imprint on the genre than Blink-182 has. Maybe not mainstream wise, however.

I disagree with this statement. The genre in question is pop-punk and I don't think that they've really done anything to impact that particular genre. Other genres maybe, but not pop-punk. Can you agree with that much?

[viva la cymche!]

I disagree with this statement. The genre in question is pop-punk and I don't think that they've really done anything to impact that particular genre. Other genres maybe, but not pop-punk. Can you agree with that much? Well, I disagree with you a bit. I think a lot of the kids that are in pop-punk bands today did listen to Jimmy Eat World, and were influenced by them. They didn't have a huge impact like a band like Weezer or Nirvana, but you can't deny they influenced a lot of the pop-punk bands today.

To a certain extent I agree with you, that a lot of kids in pop-punk bands are influenced by JEW. But I think that more of those pop-punk bands are influenced by Blink-182 more. I also think that more bands who are influenced by JEW aren't just pop-punk bands. They might have some pop-punk qualities to them, but they aren't straight up pop-punk.

So, wouldn't that mean that JEW influenced a wider spectrum of artists, and therefore had more of an influence?

[SanePsychotic]

I agree with you that Blink had more of an influence on pop-punk that JEW. So, wouldn't that mean that JEW influenced a wider spectrum of artists, and therefore had more of an influence?

Yes, that would be a valid statement. I was taking your initial idea that JEW made of an impact upon the genre and that the genre you were talking about meant pop-punk.

Simply put, we agree.

[nashiscash1324]

give it up people. if it happens then it happens. plus can they really beat their last album??

Oh and i'm listening to nfg if seeing as you brought that up.

[jagermeister]

NFG is great.

NFG is great.

Btw I dunno why there is an "if" in my previous post...

[alltimecam]

I would give my left nut to see them live. I hope they don't make another record though, it would be all fucked up, mostly because of Tom, then I would just be disappointed.

I'd give both nuts to see them live. But I'm iffy about a reunion, mainly because of the live shows. They would definitely be weird. It just wouldn't be the same. I would love to see a new record though, just to see where it would go.

I wouldn't give both nuts. I'm only 17. I still have use for them.

If they reunite, they will manage to be even more overrated than they are now.

I wouldn't give either of my nuts, or them both collectively up for anything Blink related (reunion, album), but if they toured it would be neat, but overpriced i'm sure. I agree another album would be a mess, and probably a disappointment for fans and critics.

Blink had a good run, and they split up at an appropiate time and i don't get all the deal about a reunion. That's my two cents.

[Jackfrost50]

I would be fairly shocked if they DIDN'T get back together.
Now whether they will put out anything significant, that's a different story.

They have been my favorite band since I was like, eight. I never got to see them live. haha that's my two cents

u just made that "your mum is" call look good, cause that comeback was sooo sad

is it bad that i do actually say mom :/

Naah I'm just kidding... One of them strange tomato toma(y)to things!

[WhitestKidUKnow]

Sigh.

hahahahahhahaha

I say it, but I'm American, so I'm excused (kinda).

[Paulb-182]

Naah I'm just kidding... One of them strange tomato toma(y)to things!

haha, exactly, i got ripped the other day in the eurokids thread for saying mom...

my mom doesnt even like being called mum, she likes mom.. they wouldnt listen haha

I say it, but I'm American, so I'm excused (kinda).

yeah thats a pretty good excuse for using it I'd say :P

[DaveZeroZero]

yeah thats a pretty good excuse for using it I'd say :P
That and the fact that "mother" has an 'o' in it, not a 'u' - who cares how "mother" is actually pronounced? Not I.

[drcroc]

What if they reunited and were terrible (like +44 combined with AVA would be?)
I mean, it's a possibility...

[Paulb-182]

That and the fact that "mother" has an 'o' in it, not a 'u' - who cares how "mother" is actually pronounced? Not I.

well i dont care anymore then, seeing as you are the grammar police. i feel i have the right to do it now haha

shush you

we dont think negatively about blink

well i dont care anymore then, seeing as you are the grammar police. i feel i have the right to do it now haha
Go forth and spread our seed!

[flynn92]

Do they need more money?



im guessing that would be a major part of it...

[speak easy]

im guessing that would be a major part of it...

are you kidding me? they all have plenty of money

[prlyknitswtr]

I just want to see them due to their sense of humor alone. Blink's live album, along with the MXPX live album, were two of the greatest live albums in their given genres. All of the Blink songs sounded better and their comedy was just great.

[narca9]

Haha dude none of the three need to worry about money.

[Kyleisraddd]

[Nourez]

Same here (not my absolute favorite, but definitely up there with Paramore and Green Day for me). My friends aren't the concert types, and my parents wouldn't let me go alone when I was like 13 (I think that's how old I was when they broke up), and there's no way in hell I would go to a Blink concert with my parents (Mum or mom? ;-)), but now I'd be a-ok by myself.

Ya. They kinda lost that towards the end of their careers. When they were touring for their last album, it was very much a run of the mill, play songs, and leave type of deal.

I also dunno if I would want a new album. Maybe they should do what The Police did, have one last, huge tour, and then call it a night for good.

[chipdip18]

Well look at the difference between their last album and their previous albums. They matured.... well a lot. It's hard for them to be the same potty-joke dorks when they are older and touring in support of a much more serious album compared to their other releases.

I absolutely agree with the second part.

[prlyknitswtr]

yes they matured bla bla bla but i mean come on! Be the dirty ass dudes for old times sake, maybe even record and release it.

[chipdip18]

I'm sorry, but i think that you're wishing in vain. If they tried, it would be forced and hollow.

[narca9]

Did I mention that I'd kill for another Dude Ranch-esque album?

Does anyone besides them really care if they go back to that? Sure, Mark is almost 38 but I wouldn't be surprised.

[prlyknitswtr]

age doesnt really matter i mean look at stephen jenkins from 3eb, he is just about 50. Still writes catchy melodies. Bad Religion, Pennywise, Bouncing Souls. There are bands with older dudes that still can be very poppy.

[chipdip18]

But blink's last album would suggest that the approach would remain in a "maturing" vien. Along with the more mature projects that stemmed from blink.

[c_rob2700]

For the record, Box Car Racer was the greatest Blink side project

[chipdip18]

I absolutely agree.

[humanafterall]

For the record, Box Car Racer was the greatest Blink side project
This.

[DaveZeroZero]

For the record, Box Car Racer was the greatest Blink side project
That's true, but only because it sounded like old blink, better-produced.

[Emmure4Life]

According to Travis last night on TMZ blink isnt getting back together for awhile if they even decide to :-\ sucks i love blink

[c_rob2700]

That's true, but only because it sounded like old blink, better-produced.
I just liked the whole concept/storyline behind it

[DaveZeroZero]

I just liked the whole concept/storyline behind it
it was a concept album? I need these things pointed out to me, unless it's obvious in the track listing, like on "Trainwreck" and "the Fiancée".

[Paulb-182]

i know nothing of a storyline in the boxcar LP

or can i figure one out if i think of the lyrics in each track :/

[KillerInstincts]

I grew up to them, man :(
I'd give the world for them to be back together.

[c_rob2700]

I read somewhere that it was a story with it ending with the main character killing himself on Elevator

[narca9]

Elevator is blatantly about 9/11.

[chipdip18]

I would say that yeah, it parallels 9/11, and reflects about it, but isn't necessarily about it. i read the same thing as c_rob2700

[3GunGaz]

Even after 6 years... I still haven't managed to find Jordan Pundik on Cat Like Thief.

I personally feel Elevator's just about a guy jumping off a building to commit suicide - his view and the view of the person who sees it on the street. BUT ya know - with all songs it's how you interpret it yourself.

It's such a good album.

[chipdip18]

Even after 6 years... I still haven't managed to find Jordan Pundik on Cat Like Thief.

Isn't it Tim Armstrong on Cat Like Thief, not Jordan Pundik?

[3GunGaz]

Isn't it Tim Armstrong on Cat Like Thief, not Jordan Pundik?

Both

[chipdip18]

Both

I can't hear Jordan then either, unless he's singing quiet harmony parts with Tom in the end of the song.

[3GunGaz]

I can't hear Jordan then either, unless he's singing quiet harmony parts with Tom in the end of the song.

Yeah that's where I've always thought it must be

the "Don't Leave Her" bits .. Still can't hear him but I guess that means he must be THAT good at harmonies haha - blending in so well.

[chipdip18]

Yeah that's where I've always thought it must be

the "Don't Leave Her" bits .. Still can't hear him but I guess that means he must be THAT good at harmonies haha - blending in so well.

Hahahaha. That good at harmonies. Well i think i do hear the harmonies, but they are so subtle, you have to crank it to hear it well. It's hard to decipher a particular voice in that that though, for all we know it could be Tom singing the harmonies.

[raptorz44]

I honestly have no idea what Jordan's part is, but I've always assumed that it is the little, "Yeah!" sorta thing at about 3:43 but it could be the harmonies too.


Also, when people say "lol no theres no way they're reuniting all this stuff is just a coincidence" I usually think that it's way too much stuff happening at once for something to not happen

[ghsNICK!]

KyleFtl? That you??? lol

[Smeee]

At a recent Atticus clothing show Tom Delonge and his band Angels and Airwaves took to the stage for a short 3 song set, during the course of the set it was noticeable Delonge was acting distant and distracted from his new band mates. In return his band mates gave the lead singer frosty looks during the entire set, and there was no banter with the crowd at all during the show. This set was only supposed to be a 3 song set according to the show promoter, unexplainably after the 3 song set which was in all honesty was quite shabby, due to Delonge being the main focus of the band and his lazy attitude, Delonge unexplainably re took to the stage alone 5 minutes later.
This time Delonge was in different clothes to the black emo attire he previously wore, this was a different Delonge in a backwards baseball cap, 3 quarter length shorts and white Macbeth top, strikingly similar to the attire he wore during his Blink 182 days. On his return to the stage he no longer had his trademark Tom Delonge Gibson ES-333 in his hand but a plain white Fender, again one strikingly similar to the one he used in his previous Blink days. Nobody was aware of what Delonge was doing, least of all the promoter who was visibly trying to pull Delonge off the stage, however with no luck. Delonge proceeded to silence the crowd then played a full rendition of the Blink 182 smash hit Stay Together For The Kids, a song previously sung in unison with former band member Mark Hoppus. However it was Delonge and Delonge alone with his guitar as stunned onlookers stood in disbelief to what was taking place. Delonge sang all his parts and played all his parts in those 3 minutes with more passion and drive than the whole 25 minute 3 song set he just performed with Angels and Airwaves put together. However during the course of the song obviously he was alone without his former band mates, and when it came to the Hoppus verse of the song instead of covering it, he left it mysteriously silent with just his guitar playing. After his heartfelt rendition of the hit song finished he spoke softly into the microphone; ****ing stay together for the kids, im sorry.

From their Wikipedia page... anyone know anything about this? :-|

Holy shit.

Though there is no proof anywhere of it. I've only seen it in comments on news postings and stuff.

And by that you mean they created that genre right? Because without blink the majority of pop punk bands would either not exist or be waaaay different.

The Clash > (big era of emptiness) > Nirvana > Green Day (Dookie era obviously) > Blink 182 > Fall Out Boy

You all know its true. Blink did to GreenDay's sound what Green Day did to grunge. Blink made it pop-ier, then FOB took the pop part to the next level.

Eh... I disagree with FOB being on there.

Tom DeLonge is an assbag
I agree with this guy.


Also, I don't think the reunion is going to happen.
I tend to be pessimistic of things
