Not only does Travis Barker feature on drums for this one, but there is in fact a real blink-182 vibe cutting right through the very heart it. Concert For Aliens has such an unashamedly Enema of the State era blink sound and I for one am very much here for it!
There’s just such a strong sense of excitement and lust for life exuding from the song. It’s an extremely fun listen, great to bounce along to, and although it will probably never win any awards for originality? It’s a very good pop-punk song nonetheless and if you’re a fan of the genre then it’s definitely well worth giving this one a listen!
If Matt Skiba ends up leaving blink-182 and Tom DeLonge isn’t the one that steps up to replace him, could this be something close to how the future of blink-182 may sound? Who knows…
One thing’s for sure though; Machine Gun Kelly’s Concert for Aliens has me extremely excited to hear his Tickets to My Downfall album in its entirety, a sure sign that this latest single has served its purpose, stepping up the hype very nicely as we edge ever closer to that album’s September 25th release date.
