It’s just like the other two tracks: solid track - terrible mixing/production/whatever is making it sound like I downloaded it from KaZaa circa 2004 lol I’m assuming the whole record is going to sound like that, at least to me, and that definitely brings my excitement down for this. Oh well.
I'll take these slightly muddy mixes over the Travis Barker production style that all pop-punk sounds like now in a heartbeat lol
I for one am kind of happy to not have an overwhelming wall of loud almost fake sounding guitar tbh. That being said I do also notice how "old" it sounds haha. There are times in songs where the music hitting louder and crisper is nice.
I actually dug his production on the new Blink record (I haven’t heard anything else he’s done recently though) so I would gladly take that over this muddy sound ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ hah
Travis’s production on the new blink record is crystal clear. No clue why anyone would have a problem with that, imo.
This newun has got some serious Agony & Irony vibes. No complaints from me. Love that there's clearly been some dedication toward the rhythm in the guitar parts on these tracks, really gives them a certain detail and virbancy that goes so well with the lyrics and vocals (majority of TA and MSIT fell flat because of this imo). Hope the rest of the LP surprises like this!
Song rocks. I can hear what Matt was saying about avoiding power chords and spending more time writing guitar parts.
I am not a fan of the suffocating layers of everything, turns the vocals and drums robotic in a way that is just ugly to my ears. it's w/e though I still like the album fine, he got the three of them on the same page which is the most impressive feat lol
Finally got to listen, wow this sounds great. Def on track to be my favorite Dan song since MSIT. Gonna need to hear the clean version with headphones and hear those lyrics more clear
Skiba did say he spent a month just on guitars for the album in that Stryker interview, so that got me a bit more excited even before this 3 for 3
This is good, I do think the production is weird though. That interview got me hype for the record, can't wait!
I heard saying this exact sentence in the Blink-182 thread gets you an automatic shadow ban from the site /s
Top 5 Dan: We Can Never Break Up Blue Carolina My Standard Break from Life The Poison Hating Every Minute Another Innocent Girl very close to top 5
To a point, yes. But this is a compressed reddit video stream of a rip of a song from an unknown source. The other 2 songs actually released from this sound just fine. Also, Hello Exile is immaculately produced and I won't hear otherwise.
Production. The production on TSL's Anyways EP never bothers me. So, yeah, I guess I kind of like "shitty" production. Probably because I had a cool older brother who got me hooked on 70s punk and 80s college radio bands when I was a kid.
