Every Blink-182 Album Ranked From Worst To Best
1. Untitled (Self Titled/blink-182) - 2003
Whatever you call this album, it is the pinnacle of Blink's ambition to record something mature yet catchy, a tour de force in growing up, starting your own family, and assuming more responsibility and the effect your decisions have on those around you. Delonge, Hoppus, and Barker all became fathers between TOYPAJ and this record, and the transition is obvious.
Untitled is a behemoth of a legendary band's career, their Holy Grail. Blink combined new life experience with their now razor-sharp craft to put together an album that makes you bop your head along to it before stopping to contemplate the lyrics you've just been belting out. Returning from hiatus after this magnificent achievement was setting up Neighborhoods to fail before it was even written.
Feeling This is one of the best Blink songs ever, Robert Smith pops in to haunt us on All Of This, and I'm Lost Without You is a stripped-back heartbreaker to end the record on. Barker's drums haven't sounded better before or since, and the songwriting had moved from teenage heartbreak and unfulfillment into far darker, more melancholic territories.
