Has anyone had a chance yet to listen to AVA's debut album, We Don't Need to Whisper?
It's a very impressive compilation and definately worth checking out.

Band members include:
Tom DeLonge -- guitarist/vocalist
David Kennedy -- guitarist
Ryan Sinn -- bassist
Atom Willard -- drummer

i have been an avid fan since the senseless lyrical and catchy punk rock tune of blink 182 days.

i'll still rock, mosh, and screw to this new band as long as tom is in it. someone's music perception changes as he ages. you can't honestly expect her was going to stick with that blink 182 punk rock stuff for long did ya? this "emo" stuff is not dumb "emo". it's just lyrics, rock, and all that good crap mashed together.

gosh. emo is one of the worst words to come out of my lifetime along with metrosexual.

yes, tom of blink 182.

the transplants have broken up for some reason. i saw them at warped tour last year. they're pretty good live. except this huge girl pushed me out of the way to catch one of the drumsticks travis threw out(let alone it was hot and she was like pushing against me the entire performance. she pushed me out of the way when i was up at the barricade and i punched her in the face). the transplants are not rancid though. tim armstrong is amazing but he needs to stick with rancid. he is simply gah...wonderful with rancid.

and i am getting off topic.

idyllic i've been a blink fan since i was ten. i'm almost 17. i'm not going to say i like something just because a member is in it. tom was my favorite member of blink, no doubt. i understand that he's going to change but in all honesty, it just seems like he cashing in on the "Emo" trend. they're not interesting to me. i don't really see anything creative about AVA.

This album is really good, i like It Hurts the best.

Blink suposedly broke up because of a disagreement with Mark & Tom, having something to do with Tom & Travis's side project, BoxcarRacer.
I don't know why The Transplants broke up.
Travis and Mark have their own new band with a couple of other new members called "Plus 44" Look them up on myspace.

I have yet to check out AVA, but I will.

And I understand that the kind of music a person wants to make changes from when they were 16 to 30... So no criticizing on going more emo, less emo, more punk, less punk whatever...

It's just odd to me how from a band of three people, each go out to do their own stuff, then tom and travis had box car racer and now tom has AVA and now travis and mark have a band. :: weird ::

I wonder if Travis sometimes feels like the kid with divorced parents...

PS. Why is "AVA" I don't understand how that corresponds with Angels & Airwaves... what's the "v" for?

I'm almost certain Ava is the name of Tom's daughter, but I'm not sure if that's an adequate explanation...

i heard The Adventure from a friend's, friend's myspace. it thought it was upbeat song that was catchy and couldn't help but sorta like it. they're not bad so no bad comments from me so far. but not really my kinda of music. its probably something i'll listen to on the side.

I'm a pretty die-hard fan of blink-182...

but Angels & Airwaves is pretty mediocre. The Adventure was a good song. Everything else on We Don't Need to Whisper SUCKED.

QUOTE
Angels and Airwaves' abbreviated name, AVA, is a partial reference to DeLonge's daughter, also named Ava. The abbreviation also, according to DeLonge, represents the band's initials with an inverted "A" in the middle, which stands for "victory". A third cause for the abbreviation is that when the letters are pronounced individually, it sounds like Avia, the beginning of the word "aviation", one of the band's artistic themes.


Tom Delonge performed blink-182 songs at AVA concerts, and honestly... that's so pathetic and lame. That's when you know AVA's songs are no good, you have to play your old band's songs. Mark Hoppus even spoke out against that. I miss the old Tom DeLonge sad.gif

Box Car Racer and The Transplants were pretty decent. +44 with Mark and Travis Barker as the newest reincarnation of blink-182, is awesome.

+44 over Angels & Airwaves anyday.
