10 Best Blink-182 Songs
9. Ghost On The Dance Floor – Neighborhoods (2011)
Neighborhoods is one of Blink-182’s more underrated albums. Whilst it doesn’t have the same pop-punk aesthetic as the band’s golden era in the late 1990s and early 2000s, it’s still a solid collection of tunes.
‘Ghost on the Dance Floor’ – the first track on the album – has a sense of intensity throughout that makes it the perfect choice to open up the band’s sixth record. Indeed, Travis Barker stands out from the outset with his varied and impactful drum patterns that give 'Ghost on the Dance Floor' plenty of momentum.
Delonge takes the lead on vocals, and thanks to a well-written and long-lasting chorus, his voice is easy to sing along to during this section. (The harmonies from Mark Hoppus during the pre-chorus make for a great hook as well.)
Though Neighborhoods is not the best album from Blink-182, songs like ‘Ghost on the Dance Floor’ remind us why it would be wrong to simply pass over it.
