blink-182 The Recording Process

[IFASTI]

Tom needs to bring back that cock guitar he broke

[Jordo1900]

@IFASTI he obviously can't if he broke it

[AlimeProductions]

HAHAHAHAHA 0:24 LMAO xD

[ckoepke14]

that intro riff is so sick!

[enloquecidohh]

2:48 spongebob pillow xD

[ArtofMusic91]

4:20 Tom : ''We just hit on something big'' ... no shit :D!

[sonic10158]

I'm a noob at this kind of stuff, but oh well:

what's more difficult to play: a bass guitar or electric guitar?

[dfsxgh]

@sonic10158 depends on what you're playing, song wise. Usually bass is easier, but it could definitely be harder than guitar in certain songs.

[BlackNotes200]

hey mark at 3:51 try "we can live.."

[GregoRoyClark]

All the old versions of my favorite blink songs...rad!

[Blawe182]

I love how excited Tom gets when he hears something he likes

[nickkc488]

what song is this playing at the beginning of the video??

[AMImusic21]

@nickkc488 The original stay together for the kids

[Raavasio]

1:30 SHURI CACA SHURI CACA SHURI CACA kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[rean247]

I wish they still recorded like this :(

[shane809887]

@rean247 Ikr. Now Travis and Mark write stuff together and Tom writes by himself.

[TheUnderrated402]

Anyone notice that bigass Moog synth brain at 2:46? That made my day.

[Rydo182]

Or they could record like Neighbourhoods, not really bother their arse and email stuff back and forth. It was a great album somehow even despite that, but I want to think these guys REALLY love each other again, to me it seems like Tom really hasn't got the time for blink at all. Shame really.

[GamingOnCrack]

@Rydo182 half of the time they were emailing, the other half they were playing together. So it wasn't ALL emailing, although i understand why considering Toms studio is quite far away from Marks. Although in the next album it will be even harder because Mark lives in London now

[Rydo182]

@GamingOnCrack I read Mark is only there for a year to see how life is over here. Not sure how legit that is.

[ColeMGuitar]

in almost every blink video of them on the studio you can see the spongebob doll...2:46

[Eliasguitar97]

@xevandern no sorry but if you search up "blink-182 unreleased riffs" I'm sure you'll find it somewhere :) Try google and youtube

[crazy360playa]

what's the song tom starts playing at 4:26 ?

[jix33333]

@crazy360playa Stay Together For The Kids

[Eliasguitar97]

@SkunkVS69 it's not released, something Mark and Tom was just jamming on acoustic guitars

[SkunkVS69]

@Eliasguitar97 Sucks, thanks for telling me though, do u also agree, the riff is wicked :D

[StudMuffin2193]

@Eliasguitar97 Wrong. It was "Stay Together For The Kids"...

[xevandern]

@Eliasguitar97 do you have the tabs for that song?

[SkunkVS69]

what song was that in the beginning? :P

[ILoveDXB]

@SkunkVS69 it's i'm gay

[SkunkVS69]

@ILoveDXB Ow okay :P

[KidGuitaristofUSA]

0:00-0:17 is literally the best thing I've ever heard

[SkateBoard9512]

0:27 <3 hahahaha

[green4182day]

recording of i miss you is better with marks low vocals cause it brings out the difference of toms voice.

[addicted2music365]

It's quite obvious these clips of them recording vocals, are alternate takes. ESPECIALLY the ones for I Miss You cause on the album, Mark practically whispers the vocals. But either way It kicks ass. Great vid :)

[BassMirror]

what's the song in the beginning?

[thesilentshooter69]

Whats that struming pattern at 4:24

[TomRobinsonYeh]

Why is Travis wearnig a t-shirt on his head at 3:19? ahaha XD

[musicxnaruto4lyf]

@TomRobinsonYeh proberly over thinking and day dreaming just doing weird stuff lol never done anything random just coz your bored and thinking to much i do it all the time >< hahahaha

[KingBowserVlog]

@allthingsthatarecool dude didn't I already see this in another video? Jesus man the least you could've done was a creative insult. I'd say don't watch the video and gtfo but it's not worth it...

[MartinFuckYeah182]

2:49 Spongebob??

[wimpman94]

whats tom singing at 1:34?

[MrTydawkins]

@wimpman94 asthenia

[RustleXer]

@wimpman94 it's the demo lyrics of asthenia, the one that never made it the record :)

[superluigi182]

@RustleXer

Asthenia did make it on the record... Like you said, those were DEMO lyrics. Tom had the tune for the lyrics, but didn't have the words for it yet. He was recording the tune, then found out what lyrics he can put in for it.

[RustleXer]

@superluigi182 ahhh nah dude that's not what i meant, i meant the lyrics that he wrote there (in the video) weren't the ones that made the record, like i knew Asthenia made it because it's my fav song off that record :P hahaha soz for the mix up

[MusicologyTV]

@wimpman94 its Asthenia with different lyrics

[LoLLo182]

@wimpman94 asthenia

[jenjis556]

where can i find the first song with 2 guitars????

[MusicGuy7899]

3:15 mark hoppus purple hair,

[clorofilamarco]

press 1 repeatedly for tom orgasm

[TheJosh1111111111111]

man they suck

[MusicGuy7899]

@TheJosh1111111111111 why are you on the video then faggot

[TheJosh1111111111111]

@MusicGuy7899 Cuz i thought i would give them a chance, turns out they blew that chance. Oh and by the way a third grader called, he wants his insults back.

[MusicGuy7899]

@TheJosh1111111111111 tell him i said i'll keep this one cuntsucker.

[IGotAPagina]

@TheJosh1111111111111 Well if you think they suck now it's understandable, they dont suck, but i can understand if you think their newer stuff isn't very good, they changed considerably, and you need to listen to their original shit. Do yourself a big favor and listen to Blink 182 Cheshire Cat, and Dude Ranch. Both of them are fantastic albums and are when blink was at their best. Trust me. Give it a second chance.

[TheJosh1111111111111]

@IGotAPagina lol. stay real, they dont suck...well..maybe

[IGotAPagina]

@TheJosh1111111111111 Just trust me, if you were a teenager in your life or are a teenager you will be able to totally relate to their songs. And I know a lot of music, and not to be all cliche because they are my favorite band, Blink's songs, no matter how repetitive, advanced or simple the song may be it's always great, and I think that they are the only band that has the communication they have with their fans, and they wouldn't have sold 23,000,000 records in the first week of sales for

[IGotAPagina]

@TheJosh1111111111111 Enema of the state, their 3rd album, which is great but thats when they started branching their roots out from just a punk sound with their new drummer Travis Barker. I know everyone has their tastes but Blink is pretty freakin great for everyone.

[tofuhamster983]

what was that first song in the intro???

[CALLOFDUTYisBAD01]

SHOULD I GOT GOT SHOULD I GOT GOT SHOULD I !!!!!!!!

[dnm555x]

0:00 - 0:18 what song is?

[do4mbumgdwqw]

@DaltonKuijer well that makes mark lead singer as well

[XIFATALXI]

I hope that they putt 0:00 - 0:18 on the new album

[do4mbumgdwqw]

marks the lead singer of blink toms the bass

[billytalentfan31]

0:00 - 0:18 = pure sex.

[kellydanig]

OKAY so in down he sings "tidal waves they rip right through me TEARS FROM MY EYES COLD AND SAD" but watch at 2:09 i swear he says "tidal waves they rip right through me ALL THESE DEMONS (like from "Up All Night") I miss some how"

[mojoho60]

@kellydanig he does :) i was thinking that too

[Disciple9music]

@kellydanig Up all night was written for the self titled album, I remember seeing tom playing the main riff in another video from the making of that album, so yeah that was up all night I think :)

[tr83ey23]

@kellydanig They were writing up all night during this recording process. You can find the videos of it.

[Charls1994]

@kellydanig True :)

[MarksAsianFriend]

@kellydanig yeah dude i think he was writing down and up all night at the same time, cause theres a bunch of videos of tom writing the up all night riff from this mtv special, so maybe he pulled up all night out of it?

[GreenScreenPunkGirl]

@kellydanig i think he says "hold me....." something. i dont think its all these demons

[BubBaL00]

@kellydanig HOLY SHIT HE DOES

[dysartavenue]

@kellydanig this is them recording though, its very common for lyrics to keep changing

[xXxCHARG3RxXx]

4:25 - fuck yes you did.

[TheDAIProductions]

2:46 SPONGEBOB'S IN THE CORNER OF THE RECORDING AREA!!!

[testnumberone1]

[cgman04]

[bmxwtp465]

[Evge9]

@bmxwtp465 It probably is alot of the AvA song were meant for blink

[lostboy1126]

I love that origonal lyric for asthenia "should of got gut, should of got gut, should i?"

[handyguy007]

"recording is like doing this for 4 months in a row (punches himself in the nuts with a drum pedal)" haha, hilarious!!

[darkbry23]

[kierenalder]

[SidekPL]

I love to watch it...

[marshmallows69]

[tremac35]

that beggining song is really amazing

[beserker19]

hey mark said lets go live like jack and sally but is not like that isnt it´´ we can live like jack and sally´´???

[nando09]

yeahh cause this was still in the writing process so the lyrics weren't exactly all there

[singbluesier]

yeah its the writing version because he is singer higher than the actaully recorded version of the song

[AustinPow813]

asthenia

[Djboyxma]

what's the song at 1:30

[nlo13]

early version of asthenia

[willnoggle]

What's he saying? "Should I ..."

[buckeyeboyh5]

should i cut cut. he also starts a verse with 16 wanna be different. Thats the part of it that isn't in here. Weird that the song went from being about a troubled youth to being about trapped in space

[willnoggle]

Ah, I thought it was just filler words. And I see how "I feel alone and tired" can go for both. Ha

[dallasjoh]

should i get caught.... i think... i'm italina and that's what i got

[WoWFan2709]

theyre playing Down :DD

[himynameisryan22]

blink shud continue working on that unfinished acoustic song in the beginning of the vid now that theyre back together

[dawgbizkit123]

ya wen tht was playin i was wonderin if tht was an actual song cuz it was pretty good

[Element0159]

that was the song down like WoW said xD

[Thebrownelementsk8er]

@himynameisryan22 It was orginaly Stay Together For The Kids.

[tle123rox]

@himynameisryan22 Sounds quite like After Midnight.

[MonroeGollaher25]

does anyone know the name of that acoustic song in the beggining?

[gompynl]

it has no name , its unreleased

[scootbp93]

i love that part at 3:24 when travis comes in with the rolls

[AbsoloutlyTomFan]

I like the songs at the beginning and Tom looks so sexy, damn, man he's so funny

[sk6er]

the recording of Down is amazing ..

[nittzzu]

down's my favorite song from blink, i agree

[twoguysandashow]

how have more people not watched this?

[NitroDuck69]

no idea mate, i was laughin me head off when he said recording is like doing this for 4 months in a row, lmao

[twoguysandashow]

i know hahaha

[glenncontawe182]

its because a true blink 182 fan dont only watch this on youtube.. we buy the original dvd and ive watched this for dozens of times now

[twoguysandashow]

Most true blink 182 fans myself included can't find a copy of this for a reasonable price

[finners256]

it was a special edtion version of the album with a dvd, so it may have been limited edition or uk only (if that affects you) or something. try ebay or second hand stuff on amazon. also there was many more clips and videos on the dvd than the 4 ive uploaded

[twoguysandashow]

oh thanks a million bro XP

[Birndkov]

Whats the song at 130-141

[Grumpygirl80]

it's from an early version of Asthenia. The final version can be found on their last album.

[usaholes182]

i really like that thing that's played at the beginning. is that just a demo? because i don't recognize it from any of their albums.

[4stringsjoe]

anyone alse think that the thing tom plays at 4:28-4:39 sounds like new found glory - boulders?
