I just recently discovered them, it's the lead singer from blink 182's new band. Kinda spacey sounding, I am liking them so far.

I like them, they're a bit whiney, but definitely an improvement over Blink. It's kinda Cold Play meets Blink.

Once you wanted revolution, now you're the institution, how's it feel to be the man?

*shudder* That's the worst possible combination of music I can imagine at this particular moment.

No thanks, I'm full.

Well, the acoustics are more like Cold Play's.... livelier songs. I'm not talking about Green Eyes or something. More like Speed of Sound or Clocks. But the vocals are definitely Blink.

More mature Blink? I don't know. The sound is a lot different.

I agree.

and Tom DeLonge is just awful.

blink music is either very depressing and goth-like or lively and cold. i dont really like the atmosphere. Lets start a thread about Simon and Garfunkel!

Here's a link to one of their songs:

I agree Blink is generally depressing. Angels and Airwaves is more upbeat, but still can't seem to shake that teenage angst thing.

Edit: I'm sorry, linked to the live version.
