The production still isn't the best, but the chorus of Dammit slows down and really sucks you in. That guitar riff and better singing than the last album make it wonderful. Dammit and Josie were big hits, but Dammit was much more successful. In comes Dude Ranch, often called their biggest success.

Perhaps it would be catchier if the singing and everything were better quality, but it's all good anyway. The guitar and lyrics are very simple, but that's just how it is, and it fits in accordingly with the songs. The singing might turn you off, since Tom's and Mark's voices are scratchy as hell, out of tune and annoying, but this is old school Blink you just gotta love it. The recording is poor, given the fact that it was released on Grilled Cheese Records (>_>). The first two songs on this album, Carousel and M&Ms, are off the album Cheshire Cat. From Cheshire Cat to the self-titled CD, Blink has released single after single, one after another. I just collected all the songs I have, downloaded the ones I don't and put it on a blank CD. However, guitarist Tom DeLonge remained silent.

Bassist Mark Hoppus plays for other bands, as does drummer Travis Barker. Naturally, everyone was shocked, disappointed and upset, assuming they were gonna break up and we were never gonna hear from our beloved Blink 182 again. But factor in the 'indefinite,' and you have an undisclosed amount of time you don't know how long this will be. Or in simpler terms, creating a gap in their career. But, that's what it's supposed to be.īack in February, Blink announced that they were going into an indefinite hiatus. A Greatest Hits Collection, basically of singles that span their career. The unique sounds their of explicit, catchy, pathetically bad songs and everything in between are ending, and they gave us this to have as a final memory.

They're moving on to bigger, better things, and possibly better bands. Now, they are breaking up, unfortunately. The epitome of immature, loved and hated pop-punk.
