    Picked this up from my local record store last night. I love it. Skiba gave the band new life. Going to need to listen a few more times before I can give a full review, but my first impression is nothing but flame emojis

    Will check out the full project as soon as I get a chance but "Bored to Death" and "No Future" are their best tracks since TOYP&J. Tom should've been fired long ago.

    Tom DeLounge is an awesome human being, without him there wouldn't be Blink-182 peasant.

    I'm fully aware of his contributions to the band but why try to force three people who want to make completely different kinds of music to work together? I wish him well on his UFO hunting.

    Way better. Right on par with Enema and TOYPAJ, in my opinion

    They have the full album streaming on YouTube, complete with lyric videos for every track lol

    How's this album? I was really excited till I found out Tom was out and a replacement member was in. To me this is basically a +44 album not Blink. Thought about going to their tour in August but didn't feel like paying $150 to see 2 outta 3 members. Does Skiba actually sing on the album? Only song I've heard so far is Bored To Death and it's alright.

    Tom fell the f--- off. The last album his vocals were horrendous. I think this is better. Skibas good. The music is average

    This is my favorite track...this is an actual song on the album

    Two of the songs also have very similar guitar riffs of Adams Song

    It's pretty uninspiring.

    The singles that were released in the build-up to the album only teased Skiba's ability, but I think he really stole the show throughout the album.

    Musically, it's very safe.

    Still, for what it's worth, it's better than Neighbourhoods.


    P.S. TOYP&J has aged terribly.
