[crappypunkrock]

Looks like mark is coming out with a solo albumn, wonder what it will sound like.

[oddwithoutend]

there ya go sir

[wewascontenders]

this will be interesting.

[crappypunkrock]

this will be interesting.

Ya it will. I wonder what it will sound like. If he's going to go back to a blink sound or if it will sound more like +44.

[steviestare]

It is kind of funny how they act like that article clears anything up. All this does it mud it up more. That article didn't give any exact info on +44. All it did was announce that Mark is possibly releasing a solo album. He hasn't even talked to the label about it.

[steviestare]

Bad reporting on MTV's part. Mark said nothing to address +44 in the article.

Well that's MTV for you, but mark did say he had written songs and recorded them. i'm interested into what they will be like. Hopefully we get to hear them in the near future.

[hockeyguitar99]

He's gonna to grow a beard, learn to play an acoustic guitar very quietly, sit in a chair, and sing folk songs.

Himynameismark has had videos from the studio for a few months now. If MTV's speculation is right and +44 is done. The stuff on that site would be from his new solo project. I just don't see how fucking MTV came to the conclusion that +44 is done from Mark saying he might be releasing a solo album.

Oh yeah i forgot about those videos of him recording the guitar. it sounded pretty cool but your right, if +44 was done that would be his solo project. I was hoping the interview would go into more detail about blink and +44. That interview kinda sucked, they were like tune in wednesday it may suprise you. Then it doesn't even talk about +44, gay.

[steviestare]

Well I am guessing that MTV just lost tomorrows story about "blink." I would be willing to bet this was the big surprise in part II. of the interview.

[crappypunkrock]

Yeah I agree with you. I guess it's cool Mark's writing songs on his own, but my hopes were up for this big suprise and it was just "Eh" ya know.

Yea. This part was definitely not as good as the Blink interview. He might release a solo album? His record company doesn't know about it yet? And +44 "may be over" according to MTV which would mean no more +44 records....

The outlook here does not look very good for anyone expecting new music from Mark this year.

[steviestare]

I guess. This really just sounds like +44 (if it is in fact done) is turning into a Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker project. Because he kept going on about how Travis has been in on several of the tracks etc. This just sounds like Mark and Travis doing something. Either way I will buy it.

[UnderMyDreams]

Yeah I agree with you. I guess it's cool Mark's writing songs on his own, but my hopes were up for this big suprise and it was just "Eh" ya know.

Or tomorrow MTV releases another interview with sick news and is like "lol jk!" about todays... haha

I always saw +44 as a Mark and Travis project. They have Shane and Craig, but they seemed to be just more of a sort of "backup band" on the tours. I think Mark wrote pretty much all of the music.

I know the first interview was sweet. It left me anxious and not being able to wiat for the second part, then it sucked and just pissed me off. Fuck mtv, Hopefully mark will clear everything up on himynameismark.

I wouldn't be surprised if he recorded it all himself as well. Craig and Shane pretty much came out of nowhere right before the release.

[heyzombiehitler]

He's gonna to grow a beard, learn to play an acoustic guitar very quietly, sit in a chair, and sing folk songs.

I would be down for that.

[steviestare]

He got what he wanted. I will give him credit for that. He has the whole fan base shitting themselves right now.

Oh yeah, anything with mark in it i will buy.

Haha that would be awesome, lets hope for that cause this one sucked.

[BlinkxExists21]

if there is a solo album, i think it's going to kind of suck :l

[steviestare]

if there is a solo album, i think it's going to kind of suck :l
Look at WYHSB as a solo album as well, Jess. The +44 was all Mark with some input from Travis, which is exactly what this is going to be, so don't worry too much.

but steven! what if he turns into the over-medicated version of tom delonge? :-(

[steviestare]

but steven! what if he turns into the over-medicated version of tom delonge? :-(

He won't. He has never lost touch with reality. And I doubt he will. If anything, going solo probably will just make him better.

[BlinkxExists21]

i dunno..peronally, i'm not a fan of solo albums. who knows. mark could surprise us all.

[Getup and Dance]

It will probably suck just like everything else he has done.

[thespearkid]

This.

[TangledUp]

I'm sad about +44's almost certain demise, but Mark is amazing so I'm sure his solo stuff will be great. :)

[modlife]

I think it's more likely Mark will vocal on the AVA album now...

If Tom sang on a Mark track that Travis helped on, that would just be Blink!

[modlife]

Maybe JCook meant FTSK will be supporting Mark Hoppus in April.

[TangledUp]

I think it's more likely Mark will vocal on the AVA album now...

Haha, very true. I hope Mark does vocals for an AVA song, that would be really awesome. I can so see it happening. Love the UN btw.

[stupidtyonparad]

this is kinda frustrating. theyve been talking about this +44 album for almost 3 years now, i remembered they cancelled european tour dates to record. sucks for those fans cause they might never get to see the band live now (i never did)

god damn you mark. i love the guy but hes more inconsistant than i am, and thats really saying something

ill also take a stab at what it will sound like. a whole lot of electronic shit that really isnt that good and then a few blink-sounding tracks that will be B+/A- material. aka a progression from the +44 album

[steviestare]

Missing +44 live isn't that big of a deal. You most likely would have been disappointed. The only thing that made the show worth while for me was I managed to get a pick he threw into the crowd.

[Getup and Dance]

Blink was also pretty bad live.

[thehereaway]

It will sound just like the next +44 album would have sounded i imagine...

[TangledUp]

Blink was also pretty bad live.

They weren't the best. I will say they progressively got better over the years, but they still weren't great.

Haha I agree.

[steviestare]

They weren't the best. I will say they progressively got better over the years, but they still weren't great.

They got progressively better till the Untitled tour in 2003-2004. Then went from okay before that tour to complete shit.

[BlinkxExists21]

i want mark to stick to +44. as you said, that's basically just mark and travis anyway. i don't see the need for a solo album.

[steviestare]

A solo album would lose the "punk edge" that Craig and Shane brought to +44 at the last minute. I think it would have been a much better album without that edge. The whole album lyrically was about the end of blink and the explosion of his friendship with Tom. The punk edge was out of place.

I dont think it matters if he sticks with +44 or does a solo album. He said if he does the solo thing that Travis would still be involved in it, and Mark did all the +44 stuff anyways as far as writing and recording. I always thought +44 was really just Mark and Travis with Shane and Craig on the side... I like Shane and Craig, I just don't see them as making an impact on the sound of the music or anything, so in the end, I doubt anything will change between the sound of Mark solo or +44

He's wonderful. :-d Did you get to see +44 live? I saw Mark do What's My Age Again, that was fun after all of these years.

[UnderMyDreams]

Most likely 100% accurate.

It's possible that Shane and Craig decided to start to focus way more on their other bands rather than on +44. So therefore Mark had been doing everything and they really havn't been invoved for a while.

So maybe Mark decided it would just be easier if instead of focusing on trying to get +44 more popular with two members who aren't focusing on the same thing, it would be easier to promote himself

Mark and Travis were the creative talent behind +44 from the beginning, and like people have said, they still "collaborate" on each other's "solo projects".

[zerock]

rock on!

[steviestare]

The only thing that Shane and Craig brought to +44 was the punk edge it did not need.

[BlinkxExists21]

nope :-( +44 have toured australia and i think they did the soundwave festival in '07, but i was in fiji at the time :| i'd love to see them play that, or dammit, personal favourites.

I saw them on the Honda Civic tour... They played The Rock Show, it was awesome.

But then the very next show they played Dammit for the first time. I was super pissed.

[steviestare]

Craig RUINED Dammit with +44.

[TangledUp]

Craig RUINED Dammit with +44.

Did he? Luckily I never heard it then. I only heard What's My Age Again and Rock Show.

[BlinkxExists21]

Craig RUINED Dammit with +44.

how??

[steviestare]

Did he? Luckily I never heard it then. I only heard What's My Age Again and Rock Show.

If you play guitar or have seen blink live a ton. Tom only down picks. (if you don't play guitar this will make no sense) The down picking gave Dammit a very specific pace on the intro. Craig alternate picks. (the "proper" way to play guitar) So the pace and timing of the notes was all off. Look for a Youtube video of it, you'll see what I am talking about. My beef is with the intro, the rest was fine, but for me, the intro made Dammit.

[chipdip18]

I heard that Tom is guest starring on the solo album, a secret blink album? :gasp:


By the way, i am lying. Do NOT get your hopes up.

Yea the guest vocal thing was a rumor that someone posted on Wiki after the first interview. It said that would be in the second interview, but what I can tell the second interview is up and doesn't mention that.

And if he was going to guest vocal I would leave that to be a surprise for when the CD came out.

It should be amazing. My favourite so far has been Motion City Soundtrack's Commit This To Memory.

[Wildness774]

yeah you can pretty much tell a blink 182 reunion is inevidable

[Wildness774]

his solo project is prolly gonna sound old school punk rock
im thinkin like a descendents type of sound

Mine too. I love Motion City. That album was awesome! I love the track Mark sings on too.

I tend to agree.. I'm on the fence about how I feel about it.

[UnderMyDreams]

I think he will either be a more Blink sound or stick with the +44 sound.

[BlinkxExists21]

I think he will either be a more Blink sound or stick with the +44 sound.

i think he'll sway towards blink a little more.

[steviestare]

I think he might go for a softer sound. Like the slower stuff from +44.

I'm sure you have seen those, but they are of Mark recording in the studio. I think it has more of a blink feel personally and he said he has been recording by himself so I'm sure that was one he was referring to.

That is only if +44 is indeed done. That could still very easily be new +44 stuff.

Pretty sure your Myspace link isn't the actual Mark page.

[steviestare]

His myspace is www.myspace.com/rollerpig

And always has been.

OH shit my bad. I didn't even realize that. I just always thought it was /himynameismark... Opppps. I have the rollerpig one on my myspace lol.

Fail.

[steviestare]

His blog is www.himynameismark.com, lol.

Well I think Pikerset took it over or something like that.

[Alex!]

I'm thinking it will sound like +44, except better.
I just wanna hear a song already!

Shane was a member since 2005, not a last second for him, get your info straight.

[Paulb-182]

this will probably sound just like those two videos of mark in the studio playing guitar

[fadedmemories]

Obligatory bring back Blink post.

It seems to become more likely every day.

It seems to become more likely every day.

The only reason that it's like that right now is because a lot of people are buying into the reunion rumors, who then in turn start more rumors, that more people buy into. It's like a giant snowball of bullshit.

Personally, I think a Blink reunion will happen eventually, but it's definitely not gonna happen this year. Maybe summer of 2010 or early 2011.

Nooooo it's not. They all have shitloads of money, and mark even said that it wasn't and will never be about the money. Blink is about 3 friends hanging out and writing music, it was never about fame money anything like that.

And anyways, the money is there either way.

They're barely friends anymore.

No :(

And AVA is making an album as we speak.

They're barely friends anymore.
Mark and Tom have both said that they talk to each other almost daily now. I think Travis' accident was the beginning of the reconciliation between the three of them. But that's just my opinion. Usually brings a horrific thing to bring people together.

[bradsonemanband]

1. i'd like to hear what Mark comes up with on his own.
2. i'd like to hear another Angels & Airwaves album. i'm curious to know if it sounds exactly like the last two.
3. i'd like to fucking have Blink 182 back! even just for one last tour. that would be the shit.

What are you talking about? I don't know any of you!

But are we just using this thread as a new Blink thread now?

Nope, this for Hoppus-releated stuff. Blink for Blink

[Nourez]

No :(

And AVA is making an album as we speak.


Mark and Tom have both said that they talk to each other almost daily now. I think Travis' accident was the beginning of the reconciliation between the three of them. But that's just my opinion. Usually brings a horrific thing to bring people together.

Ya. Of course, bringing people together isn't always a good thing. I mean, who the hell was happy when the Backstreet Boys got back together?

1. i'd like to hear what Mark comes up with on his own.
2. i'd like to hear another Angels & Airwaves album. i'm curious to know if it sounds exactly like the last two.
3. i'd like to fucking have Blink 182 back! even just for one last tour. that would be the shit.

Agree @ 1 and 3

Well. Most of us here are from the blink thread, and most of us are talking about the same stuff we talk about in the blink thread, and most of use here care more about blink than hoppus...

Agree @ 1 and 3

when i said i want to hear if the new AVA album sounds like the other two, i mean that as: "i will seriously kill a bitch if they do the echo guitar effect on every single song again and if they do any 'oh way oh way oh oh ohs'"

U2 should sue them over WDNTW. If you listen to Joshua Tree and WDNTW one after they other, you will feel like you heard the same album twice.

We Don't Need To Whisper > Joshua Tree.

This is common knowledge people

Hahaha.

I was going to say I guess Mormons don't understand sarcasm, but that could be worth a perma-ban
