excited. this is gonna blow everyone's minds. they certainly have the talent to do something amazing while keeping it big.
but what a weird lineup.

you're all so negative. they're definitely not going on a hiatus, no matter how bad the next record turns out to be. they might get dropped from interscope (which might actually be a good thing) but i doubt they'll be taking a break anytime soon. and i feel they realized what a bunch of crap DW turned out to be, with all the negative responses and all. Nothing Personal was reasonably well-received so they thought they were going the right way, and now they realized they weren't. now with what they've been saying about the new songs and the choosing of only one producer... I think I can get my hopes up a little.

what? everyone saw the blink and yc hiatuses coming. i didn't read up on TSL and TEN so i don't know how those happened, but it was obvious to me that the first two bands weren't exactly moving forward with the paths they were taking at the time and were getting too caught up on their issues, personal and profissional.

not my case. ATL are selling our 3k-capacity venues over Europe. they still have maybe another two or three albums to be released under Interscope's contract. and they're definitely having fun as always. there's absolutely no reason for breaking up.
