Tom should do Box Car Racer. He apparently is only after "non musical endeavors". Which includes this film and a comic around it. Neat that he wants to explore art. It just doesn't look very good.

That's lame. There is no Blink without Tom though, nearly all of the best Blink songs were written and sung by him. If he leaves, I'd rather Mark went back to +44, because that album was great.

Whatever at this point. His singing was so downhill that I don't think it mattered anymore. Getting someone from an arguably better band can probably only make them sound better for the shows they're finishing. Hell maybe they can actually have the guitar parts Tom felt shouldn't be there.

Getting someone from an arguably better band can probably only make them sound better for the shows they're finishing. Hell maybe they can actually have the guitar parts Tom felt shouldn't be there. Tom's work in AVA has been amazing from what I've heard, I absolutely love their first 2 albums, but haven't listened a whole lot to the second two (time). I don't know what's wrong with Tom's voice? I think it's just matured. Personally I enjoyed a lot of his tracks on Neighbourhoods (Even If She Falls, This Is Home, Ghost On The Dance Floor, Wishing Well are all standout tracks on the album). I've always thought the Alkaline Trio were mediocre from what I've heard of them. Frankly I don't even like Blink's kiddie stuff much anymore (which I loved as a kid/teen). But their self titled album is IMO, a masterpiece of music, and I'd rate the BCR album as the best that any of the three guys has ever put out. All in all I think this whole situation has stemmed from Mark's bitterness over Tom's success. He was very offended when Tom did BCR (reportedly, he really wanted to be a band member but Tom didn't want it to be a Blink album), and AVA has been way more successful than +44 were (even though that was a sweet album too).

Tom is so whiney. Oh well, after seeing that performance at Reading its definitely the right time to leave.

I can't say im too suprised. As much as I love Blink and was hoping we would get another album out of them after Neighborhoods and the EP I really enjoyed the direction they were going in.. I think Tom was done with Blink 182 in 2004, and unfortunately I think we all know the only reason they were back together was because of Travis being in the plane crash.

I thought I was the only one that knew of Violent Soho haha! They are so ing good, their first record is a damn masterpiece, love their hardcore/metalcore influence crossed with punk and even just generic rock. I love you for bringing them up.

I'm surprised they lasted this long. Honestly, if I was either Mark or the drummer (guys name is escaping me at the moment ave it's driving me crazy) I wrote have told Tom to do himself before recording their comeback album. He refused to be in the studio with them. They had to record the album in two different studios. Tron drone DeLonge mentally checked out when he started Angels and Airwaves and never fully came back. Drama is so not punk rawk. Neither is Blink 182.

Drama is so not punk rawk. Neither is Blink 182. Tom spent 30 days in the studio for their EP, the others spent 11, it's pretty much known fact that Mark is resentful for excluding him from Box Car Racer. It's fairly clear that it's the others that are bitter towards Tom rather than the other way around. Tom's song about Travis and Mark:I am the first to know my dearest friends Even if your hope has burned with time Anything that's dead shall be regrown ------------------------------ Any type of love it will be shown Like every single tree reach for the sky If you're gonna fall I'll let you know That I will pick you up like you for I Mark's song about Tom:Please understand this isn't just goodbye This is I can't stand you. ---------------------- I listen to you talk but talk is cheap And my mouth is filled with blood from trying not to speak.
