[@Jez4prez1]

@@francesco111111 The raw demo / early Blink is the peak blink. Their later stuff is over produced, autotune on everything. Sometimes I laugh at how cheesy some of the vocal editing is on Tom's voice on some of the later material. You can literally tell it's a computer / digitally edited very heavily. Sometimes people prefer more raw music, listening to raw textures etc. Similar to Boards of Canada, they made a whole niche adding tape hiss and using vintage electronics in their music and gained cult following in electronic music as a result (with lots of copy-cats then stealing their style). It's not all about just having the cleanest sounding music, and using all the same modern post-production / mastering gear everyone else does. Sometimes it's the flaws that make things more interesting or more unique.

[@AnshumanDwibhashi]

True but that's not nearly enough to make it sound any more different than simple transposition. It's an entirely different guitar tone on the demos. A large part of Jerry Finn's contribution was perfecting guitar tone.

I’m really confused as to why people think scott is on any of these recordings. Yes, Scott recorded an original version of Mutt for a Taylor Steele video. Yes, he had probably been around when some of these were starting to come into fruition, it’s entirely possible that the band kicked riffs around. But not only has it been said that Travis wrote and demoed the record with the band but also, just listen to the drums! 100% Travis Barker. Everything about it, the poppy snare, the percussion, the single kick. All Barker. I know there are live videos from 1998 of Travis with the band playing Dumpweed, Aliens Exist and Wendy Clear. Not sure if there’s video of scott playing any enema stuff besides Mutt.
