Enema Of The State (studio album) by Blink-182

Es bastante sólido. Este es el tipo de música que solía escuchar cuando era mucho más joven pero ahora me cuesta un poco apreciarlo. Por momentos es muy bueno en canciones como "All the small things" "Adam's song" o "What's my age again", pero también llega a ser un poco infantil y absurdo como en "Aliens exist", "Dumpweed" o "Dysentery gary". En fin, creo que es mejor no tomar en serio este álbum para poder disfrutarlo.

English review
It's pretty solid. This is the kind of music I used to listen to when I was much younger but now I have a hard time appreciating it. At times it is very good in songs like "All the small things" "Adam's song" or "What's my age again", but it also becomes a bit childish and absurd as in "Aliens exist", "Dumpweed" or "Dysentery gary". Anyway, I think it's better not to take this album seriously in order to enjoy it.

This is a record that doesn't take itself too seriously and if you let go a little you can really enjoy it. Quality wise it isn't anything special but it is an extremely catchy and infectious release that flies by with every listen. They have done a fantastic job with creating songs that get lodged in your brain and just refuse to leave and that is an impressive accomplishment. However, it can sound quite generic and we have definitely heard this style of music done better. Overall, an album I never take too serious but it does provide a thrilling experience and one I enjoy coming back to.

Can't get past the first few tracks. The singles are OK though.

Still not enough credit given here, although almost close. I think this should be in the top 300, but I don't know if it'll ever get to that spot just because they were such goofballs and drama queens. I also know most people won't agree with me, but that's OK. Blink was much more creative than people give them credit for, and lets remember they were writing these songs 100% as a band, and outselling the manufactured pop bands, and basically everyone else for about a 4 year stretch. There's genius in the simplicity and quality of every single note, and I think that's what people miss. Being a part of the pop punk genre sure didn't help either. I will continue to fly the flag. 100/100

I quite enjoyed this album - yeah it does sound like edgy boy band punk. Yeah it is simplistic and yeah it is a teen record. So what.

From tracks 5-8, the album's formula hits its stride. Up until then --- and after --- it's mediocre at best.

Adam's Song is fantastic.

Likes: What's My Age Again?, Adam's Song, Dysentery Gary, All the Small Things, Mutt.

Dislikes: Dumpweed, Going Away to College, The Party Song.

There is nothing terrible about this album but it stays in the same spot of immaturity with shrill vocals and similar song structure.

Lol imagine trying this hard to find this album unappealing and boring.

This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.

The first album I ever owned, I don't listen to it as much anymore because as much as I like it for getting me into music, at the end of the day it is a simple pop record.
