Oct 13, 2011This latest offering is a welcomed return and a rewarding listen for fans, both old and new.
-
Sep 30, 2011Neighborhoods could easily have been a disaster--that it's not, and actually a very successful endeavour, is worthy of substantial praise.
-
Sep 28, 2011For every fault that Neighborhoods has--and it has quite a few--the album is infectious and catchy.
-
Sep 28, 2011The weighty aesthetic makes the punky bombast all that more effective and fascinating but also tends to swallow it up in an ocean of melodrama.
-
Sep 27, 2011Blink-182 again delivers a record with nothing outright awful and enough dynamite songs to pack a punch at future tours.
-
Sep 27, 2011Although Blink-182 has long since left its past as a bare-bones punk band behind, overwrought rock isn't its forte, either. Neighborhoods finds a nice balance between the two, but it could still use a little less fussiness.
-
Sep 26, 2011Perhaps blink could stand to sharpen their words but it's better that they concentrated on their music, creating a fairly ridiculous yet mildly compelling prog-punk spin on the suburbs here.
-
Sep 26, 2011They've gone all mature, come to terms with their past and kicked on to the future too.
-
Sep 26, 2011Ultimately, Neighborhoods is a slightly awkward entry in the band's catalog that shows as much potential as it does flaws.
-
Sep 21, 2011Whether it was "the right way" or not, all of the days that we have waited for Neighborhoods have been well worth it.
-
Sep 21, 2011The lyrics focus on moving on, but their music can't seem to break the tether to yesterday.
