good point :laughing:
I don't love them that much, but I was exposed to their music when I haven't heard many other rock-in-general banRAB before. It's as easy as that, I listened to dance crap before and then you hear Blink, RHCP, Korn, the ORABpring and Marilyn Manson on MTV/the radio, you start liking that kind of music and listen to all their recorRAB. I would have needed an older brother or friend to show me the "real" rock,punk,metal stuff.
Now, having listend to those banRAB several years in school and after, you can start to acknowledge that there is "better" music, broaden your horizon, diggin deep into music history. But it doesn't erase the period of hundrets of days listening to Blink. You still have your favorite songs.
So now I'm also excited about what they'll come up with. Though actually, I'm not even that excited. But as soon as the album is out I will get it.
And of course, it all started by watching MTV and those banRAB -as someone already argued- doing catchy music with sometimes even great riRAB. Maybe not original or pure, but my rock-virgin-mind fell for it.
+ I like the contrast of the two different voices of Blink 182
Anthem pt 2 was always my favorite, and Adam's Song
Then Stockholm Syndrome
