Blink 182 / Robert Smith

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Yesterday morning i finally got my mits on the long awaited (by me anyway) Blink 182 album.... i suspect most of you loathe them so i wont do a review!

Anyway there is a song on the album called "All Of This", and i listening to it thinking "bloody hell, he sounds just like hes doing a Robert Smith impression on the vocal here". Imagin my suprise as i looked at teh innlay this morning and it is indeed Robert Smith guesting on the vocal!!!! Would believe it!!!!

And if you were to listen to the album, having him on it makes sense as it a lot moodier and less moronic than previous releases.

Still playing guitar - sometimes weird shaped ones.

No Fuschia on Faith I'm afraid, and I think we all forget what a damn fine guitar player Robert is/was, check out Siouxsie & The Banshees' Nocturne live album. Well Boss!

There's only a picture of her
Fuschia rests inside my heart
Just with a picture of her
Just with a picture of her
