Jan 10, 2013Definitely different, but I prefer it from anything else they've ever done. It has nothing to do with anything else they did prior, and I suspect that's where a lot of the distaste comes from. But the music is pretty darn good for a rock album.
-
Oct 20, 2010Perfect album. All the songs are amazing. Tom Delonge and Mark Hoppus are the best at what they do in their genre. Travis Barker is the worlds best drummer. This album is a lot more insightful and serious than their other work, but could be their best material. Fav songs: asthenia, go, and feeling this.

punkrockerMay 1, 2004wtf happen to blink, they fucked it, they could have been legends but then they go and turn emo. people don have to mature as they get older, take nofx for example. every cd up this fukin rocks (in a poppunk sought of way) but this emo shit sucks

ash?????Jul 20, 2005im not a big blink fan but this was ok.....

GaborAMar 1, 2004Ripe fruit never tasted so terrible. They have proven that no matter how much they mature they simply cant produce decent music. Its time to cut down the tree before more awefull fruit develops or one of the seeds spawns another blink knockoff.

-
ReneeRMar 20, 2004This album is overall the best album for the future of Blink 182. This album should go gold in the U.S. because of how good it is.

-
-
KentNov 26, 2003Kudos to blink for trying something new this time around. I love the old stuff. I love the new stuff. Musically and lyrically, this disc is richer than anything they've ever done. If you want the fart jokes, go to the concerts...mark and tom will still deliver.

andrewgJan 3, 2004I was suprised by how not horrible this album was. I'm really not supposed to like Blink 182, but this album isn't all that bad.
-
-
FrostTApr 2, 2004This c.d is heart warming and fun at the same time. It fuses old skool punk, with new pop punk. I definitely like their other c.d's. a lot to, but this is definitely one of their best. I miss you is one of their best songs yet.
-
-
JessieVApr 23, 2004I personally think that Blink-182 is the best band ever! Every C.D they release they improve they always get better it feels as if they just started and they're so great! I believe that they're not finished ... they have a wonderful career and I hope that I can still listen to new blink-182 songs from today until the rest of my life!

NickJun 12, 2006Blink 182 grew up then split up, this is their best work by a long way, some people obviously haven't listened
-
-
frankcJun 23, 2006this is a very amazing cd. infact all blink 182 cd's are amazing so the critics that think blink 182 should get put out of their misery (playlourder) well you can go fuck urself!! Have fun!
-
-
DanBAug 26, 2006blink's best album, a true punk rock masterpiece, a necesity for any CD collection, and in the ranks of Green Day's "American Idiot". It's honestly a shame that theri all-too-early break-up stopped them from continuing in this direction.
-
-
RichardEJan 13, 2007Definitely 10. One of the top 00's albums
-
-
andrewaJan 14, 2007this albumcan be much more widely listened to for teens to 40 plus.

EmilL.Feb 19, 2009This may not be their greatest album, but all songs are interesting and have something that make them very good to listen.

TuomasKDec 19, 2003Blink 182 rocks as usual! I want this CD NOW!
-
-
NjoiFDec 7, 2003With the exception of a couple of song that could be improved, an otherwise brilliant cd that is by no doubt their best yet. Blink 182 have just made their first great deviation from their usual style, a deviation that will undoubtly bring many more great cd´s to come in the future.
-
-
MikeSJan 17, 2004Great! You know, I even didn't know anything about blink-182, till I made friends with someone, who just loves it! So, I foud out that blink-182 is a great group!

JonathanGJul 17, 2005By far my most favourite album
-
-
[Anonymous]Jul 24, 2005This album is far from the best of blink 182 that we got in the earlier stuff in songs such as pathetic and wasting time.
-
-
StephenRJul 25, 2005No question their best album, Blink-182 keeps what makes this punk-alternative band great and adds maturity to an album that remains a refreshingly satisfying listen throughout the duration of the CD.
-
-
TheGuyJan 21, 2006What happened Bilnk 182? Yeah, it's OK, but... Wasn't Enema of the State a LOT better. It's a nice CD, Blink 182 NEVER makes mistakes(exept for Buddha, but itu need some time to "fine tuning"), and this disk wasn't the exption. It's just that the other disks heard better, the old "light" style was cooler.

CuylerF.Feb 29, 2008Wow! It seems like theyr'e songs have really matured. And the Instrumentals are great, the songs are a lot deeper. They are easier to listen to. My favorite songs on the album are Down Obvious Violence and Alwways. Still my favorite album of all time! Blink better get back together.
-
-
SuleimanMMar 15, 2008A great ending for a great band.
-
-
MarkTNov 19, 2003Sonically, their best album yet, it lacks the toilet-humor of their previous offerings, which may alienate some fans, but it makes for a much stronger album that is much more serious, yet catchy as ever.
-
-
PaulFNov 19, 2003A great new sound, and not just for the band. A very good listen
-
-
MitchWNov 24, 2003I really like the new guitar style, and the techno that is in some of the songs flows pretty well. But be warned: This is not "Dude Ranch" or "Take Off...", but it is good. Definitely buyworthy.
-
-
FakEmanNov 24, 2003So much better than their last couple of albums, the band is definately more mature
-
-
PoonDawgNov 25, 2003Completely different from the rest of their albums. Yet still just as enjoyable. A whole new image from Blink, as previous comments would say, more mature. It's some good stuff!
-
-
LeslieRNov 26, 2003Love the duet with Robert Smith, who would have thought!
-
-
ChrisJNov 29, 2003Simply fucking amazing. Best record they've ever made.

kristinaleeDec 15, 2003they r sooo great!!!i love them!!! there music has changed a little, but it's still Blink 182!!!i love the song "feeling this"!!!

-
SusanCDec 21, 2003This album is one of their best albums to come. They were gone for awhile and came back with glory and gold. Blink 182 are gold.

Aug 11, 2010This is the best album ever. period. F the rest of u haters. don't like em. Blink 182 will go down as one of the most legendary bands ever. I've been playing this album for 5 years and it still amazes me. and yes, i listen to other music than them but nothing tops this album.
-
Nov 23, 2010Just an awesome album in general, way more mature, intelligent, and deep than usual. Musically, it's more than the sum if it's parts and the parts are awesome. Still, it's not without flaws.

Nov 6, 2011I think that this change in atmosphere is good but I dont see why people are complaining the sound is relatively the same as precious albums but a slight change in lyrics and theme, their is nothing bad about that, great album one of my top 3 favorite Blink albums
-

Jan 25, 2012I liked the older albums but really screw all you a-hole punks just because they have taken a different take on pop-punk and rock doesn't you have to hate on them, punk is outdated anyway
-
Mar 8, 2013Another excellent album by Blink-182. It is different from the previous album, and it's not on the same level of Enema Of The State, but there are many great songs. I love I Miss You, Always and Feeling This. Some songs are uninteresting (The fallen interlude and All Of This I don't like Robert Smith), but the rest is good.
-
Mar 7, 2013Blink-182 presents one of the best rock albums ever created to mankind.
-
Dec 22, 2013The last band I would expect to lyrically mature was Blink 182. Not only did they mature, but they took the maturing direction extremely well. The music sounds more artistic, the lyrics smarter, and the new instruments help the tone. Not to mention, Robert Smith's guest starring in the acoustic "All Of This" just makes it that much better.
-
Nov 22, 2014I seriously do not know why it has an 86 rating. This is one of blink's best albums. All of the songs on here are perfection and never get boring. Mark Hoppus, Tom Delong and Travias Baker did a wonderful job producing this album. One of the best songs on this album is Stockholm syndrome because of the great guitar lead and bass tabs. lets try getting the a 90 score :)
-
Oct 9, 2015Wonderful album! Reminds me of being a teenager again! They are my favourite band and certainly did not disappoint with this album! They really seem to have grown up with this album and it's still recognise-able as being Blink 182
-
Apr 6, 2016Perfect album. All the songs are amazing. Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus are the best at what they do in their genre. Travis Barker is the worlds best drummer. This album is a lot more insightful and serious than their other work, but could be their best material. Fav songs: asthenia, go, and feeling this.
-
Sep 29, 2017This album is AWESOME. Seriously it's the best **** I've ever heard! Some songs like "Miss you", "Asthenia" or "Always" are sooo good. They'll never get old and they'll stuck in your head. I love Blink 182 so much!
-
Mar 10, 2018Honestly, kind of overrated but has some really good songs mixed with some filler tracks.
-
Feb 25, 2019Blink 182 takes a step from punk to polished, diving into melodic and thematic variation from the teeny albums preceding. While their emotion and struggles lay bare, the band's sound still finds footing in catchy, driving pop-punk anthems.
Awards & Rankings
-
The disc does meander in spots, and its most achingly sincere love songs become cloying, but it's easy to both enjoy and appreciate Blink-182's effort and evolution, especially when hooky pleasures continue to function as its primary stock in trade.
-
BlenderBlink-182 have found a new, angrier way to never leave junior high. [Dec 2003, p.135]
-
Blink-182 is a challenging listen, although not for the reasons one usually associates with Blink-182.
