Blink-182 Name New Album Neighborhoods |
July 18, 2011 Last week, Blink-182 finally released their new single, "Up All Night," and revealed that their upcoming album will be called Neighborhoods. The album reportedly has a release date of September 27, according to AOL's Spinner blog, and hopefully fans will be getting a taste of plenty of the new material when Blink hits the road in August with My Chemical Romance. Their 40-date tour will begin on August 5 in Holmdel, NJ, and end on October 15 in San Diego. "One of the things I'm really proud of about this record is a lot of the songs are really built for a big audience," Blink's Tom DeLonge told Spinner. "I think we've done a really great job kind of separating our record into sections, where some stuff is throwback, some stuff is very progressive, and some stuff is just plain different." As for "Up All Night" specifically, the song has actually been around for more than two years, ever since Blink-182 first started jamming together again in early 2009. However, during that time, the single has undergone some rather drastic changes. "'Up All Night' was the first song that we started writing when the band got back together," Mark Hoppus told MTV about the single. "The foundation of the song remains largely the same as when we first began, but over the past two years, as we've been recording others songs, coming back to this one, working on something else, coming back to this song, it's gotten harder and heavier than its original incarnation. Initially the chorus had much more air. It was a lofty, synth-y chorus, but we wanted the first song that people heard to be much more of a rocker. We changed a bunch of the instrumentation, recorded heavier guitars and bass, and Tom wrote the progression that the guitars take on in the chorus. Then Travis [Barker] took it over and the drums really solidified the rock element of the track. The half-time intro of the last section was all him, and I think punctuates the song very well." "Up All Night" can be heard below: |
