I mean Mark described the split as a "friendly divorce" and I think it's actually kind of remarkable that this is going to come out as an official blink record so soon. I thought it was going to be a LOT messier. There might be songs influenced by feelings during that time but anybody looking for "No It Isn't pt. 2" will likely be seriously disappointed. Nor do I want that. I think they got everything out of their systems in those messy public exchanges. And the band with Matt seems like they couldn't have been in a better place while writing.
I am still really shocked Tom didn't make it more of an issue for them with his comments such as "I started the band, i found the members". But am so glad he didn't they seem in an amazing place and its made me so excited for the record.
