blink-182 & All Time Low Team Up

2019-02-21 by Rowan5215 STAFF | 26 Comments
+44 fans eagerly dreaming of what Mark Hoppus might do outside blink-182 are in for a gift with the announcement of Simple Creatures. The project is a collaboration between Hoppus and Alex Gaskarth of All Time Low fame, seeing the two sharing vocals and co-writing on an EP due for release March 29th. The two singles "Drug" and "Strange Love" aren't miles away from the initial vision of +44 as an electronic project with the massive pop hooks of All Time Low in the mix. Listen to the songs for yourself just below, and pre-order the Strange Love EP at the band's site: www.store.simplecreaturesmusic.com/

I wanna say I’m in shock over how completely abysmal these songs are, but it’s actually really not surprising

I’ve only heard drug and that was a super generic song. Will see if Strange Love is any different. I think Feldmann is involved though, and that’s never good.

Not understanding why anyone would compare this to +44, sounds nothing like they did.

I'm a huge pop punk fan but one band I've never been able to stand at all is All Time Low, so this is as awful as I was expecting. I was expecting a more pop punk sound frankly and instead this sounds like some Imagine Dragons or other mainstream radio rock these days.

"Drug is meh, Strange Love is a slightly better meh" + "this sounds like some Imagine Dragons or other mainstream radio rock these days"

I said the original vision of +44. you know when they were all electronic and had the female vocals like it was originally announced, before they added the guitarists

the initial description of +44 sounded more akin to something like the postal service except with travis’s usual dancey kinda stuff this, idk what the fuck this is both alex and mark sound horrible.

drug is legitimately the worst song i’ve ever heard hoppus on and that says a lot considering california’s lows

Eh, they're ok. Not ID bad, that's going a little overboard, but forgettable.

It's not terrible, but I'm having a hard time getting over Hoppus et al, dudes in their mid 40s, sing about sophomoric emotions and experiences. It's not sincere.

yeah, these are kind of really terrible and generic. I'll look forward to the next blink album (even if I know I'll be disappointed) but I'm gonna pass on this band

Not that bad.

I can see how if you wanted something good though you'd hate it haha. But probably adding stange love to that social playlist I have for all those unbelievable number of times I really just shouldn't play my own.
