The album comes out tomorrow for me... I'll definitely be going to the store to pick it up. I've heard about 5 of the songs already and I like them, and I'm trying not to listen to the other 5, even though it's tempting.
That sucks... seriously, the clean versions of any CD are usually a good deal worse, becuase they go silent whenever they're is anything that's considered "bad" and sometimes, full parts of lyrics are taken out all-together. I'll be buying the parental advisory version for sure.
darn since theres only like four swears on the whole album but my moms weird like that. i looked on itunes and only It Hurts and DO It For Me Now are edited.
Okay, I've bought the CD and have listened to all of it and I really like it. It's not going to be some world-changing album, but it was as good as I expected, so I am satisfied. Tom has improved lyrically and musically quite a bit and it has a very melodic sound to it. It's different than his previous works, so even if you didn't like his other stuff, it might still be a good idea to check this album out. It's 50 minutes long, with 10 tracks. I like all of them.
Tom DeLonge is super-psyched about his new band, Angels & Airwaves, and its debut album. That's why on the day "We Don't Need To Whisper" was released, he's turned into a human quote-machine, according to MTV.com.
"When we were making this record, I remember one night, it was about 2 a.m. and I went into the studio — which was in my house — and it was pitch black and I put the record on and listened to it, and I had this overwhelming rush of emotions," he said. "I was like, 'Oh my God, this is going to be huge,' and I started having these panic attacks thinking about every country in the world wanting us there multiple times. Conquering the globe is a pretty large endeavor."
And you can't blame him for being excited. After all, Whisper has been an endeavor almost a year in the making, and in the time since he first announced he was starting the record, he's been peppering the media with statements of its sheer awesomeness.
"People ask me, 'Is this the next Box Car Racer album?,' and I say, 'Kind of.' And people ask me if this is the next Blink record, and I say, 'Kind of.' But it's also the beginning of something completely new," DeLonge laughed. "This band contains an inner energy and a spiritual awakening that's kind of magical. And it's so full of positive energy that I think that whoever comes to the shows or listens to the album and wants to become a part of it, it will happen to them. I think it's going to be a sort of magical, organic thing that happens with anybody that is willing to have that kind of feeling in their life."
A&A will launch an American tour alongside Taking Back Sunday next month. What can fans expect when they come to an Angels show? You probably can guess Tom DeLonge's answer.
"These shows have been incredible. ... They're so much different than Blink shows," he said. "They're anthemic and heroic. There's a huge group of people coming to feel the exact same thing at the exact same minute. And it really feels like an ascension to heaven. People are lifting off the ground. There are people crying, and there are these battle flags flying in the wind. It's incredible."
I think it would be really neat to see them live, but I could care less about the other bands. After their done with this tour, they're supposed to be doing a headlining tour, which I'll be more interested in.
