Esta semana salió el nuevo sencillo de Blink-182 llamado Bored To Death y que es el primero de la banda sin Tom DeLonge, quien salió a finales del año pasado y fui sustituido por Matt Skiba (Alkaline Trio).
Ahora DeLonge ha decidido hablar sobre la salida de esta nueva canción de Blink-182 y en donde confiesa que ha estado hablando tanto como Mark como con Travis sobre el futuro de la banda, además de que cada quien esta en distintas posiciones en su vida que hace imposible que puedan hacer música juntos.
Aquí les dejamos su post y en donde menciona que espera que en un futuro vuelvan a tener esa energía por la que sacaron tan buenos disco.
Hi everybody-
I understand all the craziness out there in Internet-land, it is an odd time for fans of the Blink-182 legacy, I know- It’s odd for me, too.
Well, I met with Mark yesterday, and Travis the week before…. I actually talk to Travis almost every day, now.
The answer is this:
We DO have a future together if we want it, but for now we are busy doing separate things. I am directing a movie this summer, releasing a couple more albums of music and digging deeper into my relationships with the US Government on the Sekret Machines Project.
I know people are comparing the Angels and Airwaves Chasing Shadows EP to the new Blink-182 music, and that is a failed task. We are different people after different things. For one, I think having a song-writer that came in on the Blink album (Feldy- 5 Seconds of Summer, Good Charlotte) was something they felt was necessary, and that in itself may be an indicator of some of our current artistic differences that are difficult to overcome. At the time, I was recording the song NEW WORLD (on the DEMOS album titled after my own name) and that was my personal opinion of where we could possibly take Blink for the next album. But we are at different places in our minds, careers and goals, I get it.
But that said, I obviously want them to make the music they wish. I have always been thankful for them in my life, but I am a forward thinking artist, and sometimes that leads me down a different path- That is why I have done other projects like: Box Car Racer, Angels and Airwaves- LOVE 1 & 2, AND The Dream Walker etc…
I look forward to my upcoming adventures, and a hell of a lot more…
….Maybe even a bit of Blink-182 if we can build back that “special something” that was once there.
