Artwork would've looked sick with the "Happy Days" color scheme instead of the rainbow but I'm hyped for this album!

 

So they count the live album?

1. Cheshire Cat
2. Dude Ranch
3. Enema
4. Pants
5. Self titled
6. Neighborhoods
7. California

 

To me it’s always been

Official Albums:
Buddha
Cheshire Cat
Dude Ranch
Enema of the State
Take Off Your Pants and Jacket
blink-182
Neighborhoods
California
Nine

EP’s:
Flyswatter
They Came To Conquer Uranus
Dogs Eating Dogs

Live Albums:
The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show (The Enema Strikes Back!)

So Nine checks out imo

 

Wow, i thought I read the album would only be 10 songs. 15? This is great news!

 

Cover looks sharp

 

Hope it's good

 

Is Buddha considered an official album? Thought that was basically demos of songs that ended up on Chesire Cat.

 

Buddha is not one of their albums.

They also stated in 2009 that the 6th arrow was added to the smiley to represent their 6th album. That ended up being Neighborhoods.

 

You could count Buddha, but I prefer the idea that this is their 8th official album and they knowingly titled it Nine

 

I really like the album artwork.

 

I like the artwork, and Darkside might be my favorite Blink song since their reunion

 

I like the idea of live albums being so classic, they count. The live album is so classic, so iconic, it should count. Like Panteras 101 Proof, which I consider an album. Its cool

 

Hmmm....

 

Actually enjoying this one. Haven't really cared for any of the previously released songs much.

 

I listened to that live album so much that I memorized the banter. And I feel like that wasn’t uncommon among blink fans.

This is 3/4 for me. Blame it on my Youth was a hard miss for me. Generational Divide was too short, but I still really enjoyed it. And Happy Days was pretty good. Not amazing, but enjoyable.

 

Mark clarified on reddit today that him and Travis decided they’re counting Buddha and that this is their 9th album, thus the title. He’s not counting TMTAT, DED, or California deluxe.

 

Lyrically lacking... and yes it's Blink, but come on, these guys can do better. Musically pretty good ear candy. Still wish it had more guitars and that the bass was more distinguished like their older records.

 

Man that’s some spiffy artwork. I like it
Darkside is great. That Skiba chorus is rad

 

This is as close to a great song that NuBlink has done. The chorus is still thin to me and I wish they could do more with a bridge than repeat the chorus in a different way.

 

At the concerts in the crowd you still hear the changes of lyrics and witty post song things during those tunes being sung out

 

I'm not really into this band's current output, but how are they going to call the album "Nine"...and not launch on 09/09/2019?
