I came across this video on accident. I grew up knowing how to play this stuff note for note, but dude you have got a GREAT tone going there. Do you mind sharing your rig setup? Looks like the epiphone with dirty finger pickups I’m assuming. What kind of distortion are you running? There’s something special about Tom’s sound, because I can care less for any similar bands like Green Day, New Found Glory, or any pop punk band. I grew out of that shit, but the music on here is still so good to my ears, nothing can compare.
Not really his guitar playing nor tone or style, the music as a whole, the teenage angst and the toilet humor were the defining traits, Blink along other pop artists spearheaded the MTV era.
I love Tom and his guitar work, but as far as “best” guitarist in pop punk, I’d probably reconsider and go with either Dave Baksh from Sum 41 or Casey Cavaliere from The Wonder Years
21 days... the most underrated Blink song. They rejected this awesome song and never recorded it in a professional studio. They never played it live. It was a crime XD this song is one of my favorites.
When all the comments aren't even about "21 days". But yeah I stumbled upon 21 days just listening to buddha on shuffle. And the first time I heard it, it was haunting. Couldn't stop playing it over and over in my head.
In my opinion the most underrated song is “Alone” from their first album Flyswatter. It’s not on any streaming service and even if you listen to it on RU-vid the quality is atrocious. An also, is one of the greatest Blink songs of all time, should have been on Cheshire Cat instead of Just about done.
Good list and KILLER job on covering all of them. The intro of Dumpweed is the only change I’d make. I love the whole song, and the part you picked. Just that first E into the riff is iconic. Awesome job!!
@@theinternetisokayy469 yeah I actually made this comment based on the doc and then went back and watched it to be sure and saw I was mistaken. Just couldnt remember what video I commented on 😂
Doug Davis because it’s a top 20 list. Removing multiple dogs due to copyright would make the video pointless and then you along with hundreds others would complain about the missing songs.
Gabriel Lévesque-Lessard he played some riffs alternate picking in cheshire and dude ranch. Fentoozler, toast and bananas, degenerate solos... And some other intro and riffs.
The adventure, dysentary Gary, roller coaster,reckless abandon, all the small things, and last but the best 21 days, are all better than dumpweed. Dumpweed is good though strong track for its album.
Good video! It's actually really hard to name the best riffs because there's so many. But to name three my favourites (at least atm): wasting time, m&ms and dysentery gary.
I personally prefer the Natives riff over Young London. I only compare those two specifically because they came out around the same time and are so similar in style.
Nice job. Ahhhhhh! I use to have a 2008 Gibson Tom Delonge Memphis Custom Shop. I can't believe I sold that. Even if the value hadn't gone through the roof lately, that was the best/easiest playing and lightest ES-333/335/345/355 guitar I'd played or owned. The potential for mod
@@SugarpillProd I'm sorry, I didn't get a chance to finish my writing before I accidentally sent it during mid sentence ha! Damn, embarrassing. Yeah, the stupid reason I sold it is my friend came over to my garage to play some songs, he brought along his 04 Epiphone Dot Dregan Signature that had Gibson 57' Classic & Classic plus stock in them. His guitar was nice, had the cool Backyard Babies Skull & Cross Bones Band logo graphic on an antique ivory finish but was basically an Epi Dot with stock Gibson electronics and pick ups. My rig was/is an 04 Mesa Single Rectifier Series 2 Solo 50 Head w/Mesa Recto 2x12 cab and a Seymour Duncan Twin Tube Mayhem Pre Amp/Distortion & Boost pedal thru the FX loop. He brought a Fender combo. After playing for 30 minutes we switched guitars just for the heck of it and I fell in love with the Epi's tone through my rig. For some reason the more moderate output pups in the Epi let my rig breathe easier and it sounded better. My stupid ass didn't take into account that the Dirty Fingers was pushing a little too much compared to 57's plus I didnt need that Pre amp boost in the FX loop so I ignored how the great Gibson Delonge played, felt, looked and could've just dropped in a 57' in the Delonge but no, I sold it and have gone through alot of guitars chasing the feeling of the Delonge. Sorry bout the length of this and thanks for letting me share. I dig your playing and tone. Keep up the fantastic work!
Swap M+Ms and wasting time around, move touchdown boy slightly higher, replace dammit with pathetic and man Overboard with Wendy clear and that's a pretty perfect list
He did but it’s still Toms riff. Mark had a string missing on the guitar (probably d) so technically you could say it’s Toms since he plays it on the top 3 strings
I absolutely love the sound of this guitar. Please let me know what guitar is it and what pickups do you use, and what are the amp settings??? I’m so curious. I’d love for my guitar to sound like this.
It's Tom's signature guitar, with a Gibson Dirty Fingers pickup in it. I was using my Axe Fx for this video, though I have no idea what amp it was modeling, as this video is very old now, haha.
It was a song of a old EP. Maybe if it was a Dude ranch song... And 21 days is the example of a masterpiece underrated and rejected... they never recorded this great song in a professional studio. I dont know why? It could have been like the Adams song of cheshire cat or dude ranch.
