Tom om stora idéer inom musik

Denna artikel är från Gigwise:

Angels & Airwaves have recently finished their UK tour, released new single ‘Surrender’ and have a new movie coming out very soon.

We caught up with Tom DeLonge as the band prepared to play London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire earlier this month to discuss Angels & Airwaves ongoing success – and of course, his time in one of modern punk’s biggest bands, Blink 182.

Tom told us about his ongoing goals and aims for Angels & Airwaves – plus why Blink 182 didn’t last longer, and explains why modern rock bands needed to look back to the seventies great for inspiration on how to succeed in today’s music scene.

Watch our exclusive interview with Tom DeLonge below.

Tom DeLonge om det kommande albumet

Här är en liten artikel från 1057thepoint, där Tom berättar om hur det nya albumet kommer låta. han berättar att det kommer vara en mix mellan de tre olika personliga stilarna som Mark, Tom och Travis har. Tom förklarar att det kommer bli någon sorts mix av deras olika soloprojekt.

Blink-182 frontman Tom DeLonge said backstage during the band’s appearance at the U.K.’s Leeds Festival last weekend that fans can get a clue about what the group’s next album will sound like by listening to the solo work from all three members.

DeLonge told the U.K.’s Rock Radio, “The record will be very modern, relevant, fast and fun. It’ll be a mixture of drum ‘n’ bass, indie rock and stadium rock . . . Anyone who listens to my band Angels & Airwaves will know where I sit musically. If you imagine that, mixed in with what the other guys do in their spare time, you get it. It’s going to be a really great collaboration of the best of three different genres of music.”

  • Blink plans to get down to work on a new record later this year after finishing up their current overseas road trip.
  • The band reunited after a five-year hiatus in early 2009, partially as a result of drummer Travis Barker’s near death in a plane crash.
  • DeLonge says that the punk trio are “getting on better than we ever have, and there’s a confidence there now. We love what we do and we know we do it pretty well.”
