New blink-182 Song: The Night The Moon Was Gone

Extract taken from July issue of Alternative Press:

As for now, Blink have at least one new song in the can, a post-hardcore tune titled “The Night The Moon Was Gone” (Hoppus’ alternate title: “The Day The Sun Said Suck It”), co-written by DeLonge and Hoppus, who both sing on it. “It sounds like it was the lost track of the untitled record,” says DeLonge. “Lyrically, it’s all about how everybody has the same wants, fears and desires. No matter who you are, no matter what vantage point. At the end of the day, everyone just wants to get by.”

    Gotta say, I prefer the alternate title. Although both are way too wordy. And while I’m jabbering… what the fuck does “post-hardcore” mean?

  • nickp2943

    Post hardcore? WTF?

  • 144

    EMO TITLE TOM!

  • Blake

    Post-Hardcore is like what Hawthorne Heights sounds like. Thats probably the best example.
    Yeah it is a little wordy and right when I read it my first thought was “Is this really a Blink-182 song?”, but I bet it’s good I mean it is still Blink-182.

  • HappyPunk

    Fuck emoTom!!!!!!!!We want blink 182 we loved, the punk rockers!!!!!!!

  • Orian

    So, in other words they’re just applying an arbitrary genre definition to it? As I don’t think the members of blink are collectively capable of putting out anything like Hawthorne Heights.

  • http://www.182online.com Jeremy

    I’m pretty sure they are just trying to place it in a genre.

  • http://www.twitter.com/AJLauer A.J. Lauer

    “post hardcore” is a nice way of saying “emo”, every1, including me, does not generally like the term “emo”. I like some emo or “post hardcore” songs, but not generally.

    Anyways, Wow.. I hope blink-182 stays punk and doesn’t go totally “post hardcore/emo”. i mean technically you can call Box Car Racer emo/Post-Hardcore, but BCR was effin rad as hell!!!

    The title seems very “twilight-ish” which isn’t good in my opinion.

    Either way, Love blink-182 since ’97 to this day!!

    I was at Jay Leno live Double-taping !!! (Crazily scored tix after waiting in line for 2 hrs at 7am and 3 more hours at noon, all in the scorching L.A. sun!!! They taped both shows in one day, NBC just made it look like 2 different days haha!

    Go Blink-182!! Summer 2009!

    Does any1 know what sites Mark was referring to when he said via twitter,”Certain blink-182 related websites will have pre-sale blink ticket”?!?!

  • RiVans182

    if the song is an emo one im going 2 b disappointed

  • BBF3

    Come on people, post-hardcore has not ANYTHING to do with shitty bands like Hawtorne Heights S: post-hardcore are bands like Drive Like Jehu, At The Drive-In, Fugazi, Fall of Troy, Quicksand, all of them amazing. Although, I don’t think blink could sound similar to those bands, so I think the use for post-hardcore is just an example of lazy journalism. Don’t judge the song just because of the title (which I like and don’t think it sounds emo AT ALL, so come on), let’s wait to hear the song and then judge, it’s blink, they have never let us down.

  • James

    Seriously you guys just shut the fuck up, always complaining about something, because Tom didnt sing well in one presentation, because of the song title, because of the CD because of the tour ur just lame. The old blink is NEVER gonna be back, let the continuation of blink happen and then judge but seriously u all hypocritical assholes who always asked for blink to come back and once they are u just dont like them. FUck you all who think that way.

    Tottally agree with this guy.

  • Rob

    well put james. i’ve been reading a lot of these comments lately and frankly many of them are immature and hypocritical. grow up people. blink is back together making music you’d expect from guys in their 30′s. if you want emema sounding music, then pick up the latest pop-punk flavor of the week.

  • link2blink

    just stfu and appreciate the music assholes. always complaining like a buncha irritating brats.

  • Freiteez

    that is one wacky title “hey lets listen to some rock show, all the small things, Down, and The Night The Moon Was Gone”

    sounds like a movie title or book title, not a song name haha but hey, im sure blink know what they are doin

  • http://www.twitter.com/AJLauer A.J. Lauer

    to #9 and #10:

    Blink-182 will always be good in my opinion, no matter where their sound takes them, evolutionary-wise.

    I just don’t think people wanna hear : “Blink and Airwaves”, but instead, “Blink-182″.

    We’ll see. I hope you weren’t refering to me in your above comments. (wow, was that “Emo” of me to say that?!?! ;-p)

    And as for Tom’s singing, he purposely sings different live!! He does it to be unique and crafty! He’s been doing his whole career. I guess all the 13-17 yr olds don’t know much about that since they were all merely 9-13 yrs old the last time blink was together.

    I’ve been listening to them since 1997. (I guess im old haha).

    Calm urself.

    Bye

  • Kyle

    Post-hardcore they are referring to is probably like a boxcar racer feel.. not like a hawthorne heights, saosin, etc. feel.

  • gareth

    The people who want Blink to be singing about teenage girls and dick jokes are gonna be pissed little bitches when any new stuff comes out! we are gonna have to put up with endless whining about how this is to AVA this to much like +44 and why cant they just sing a song about poo!!! The Blink 182 that left us was a different band that had made a very grown up album that that touched on grown up subjects…. i thought that album was there best one! they are no longer the kids they once were, All that we should hope for is that the magic the 3 of them had together..which was as present in there untitled album as in any other is still great and they continue to grow!!! If you want old blink…go and listen to old blink!!! there will never be another Enema of the State or Take off Your Pants and jacket….but thats ok cuz we already have them!!!! I hate you Fuckers

  • gompy

    yeah ok the name of the song is kinda long and dumb but ill bet its awesome

  • gareth

    i bet it will feel like sex in our ears

  • gentlebutthumper

    what the fuck guys , just wait up and listen , itll all be cool

  • Stuart

    Seriously did any of you people complaining listen to the last album?? You really think they’re gonna go back 10 years and sing about teenage life and dick jokes again?? Jesus christ

  • BBF3

    Well said, gareth :D

  • James

    Gareth nailed it xD

  • Billy

    people are you for real? how can u judge the new song by its title? have you ever heard the quote “dont judge a book by its cover”? lol but seriously no one has heard anything yet so dont worry about the length of the name. CAN’T FUCKIN WAIT TO HERE IT!

  • James

    The other way round if Blink had announced that their next single would be a song called piss on my ears you little dicks wouldnt be satisfied either so get over wid it and enjoy the new stuff blink has xD

  • Blink-O

    they probably gonna change the title again… or gonna shorten it. like

    “The Night”
    “Gone”
    or
    “(The Night The Moon Was) Gone”

  • james

    I actually like the new songs name. Its kinda cool. Tom said that this new song sounded like the last song on the last album (untitled) which hopefully will sound something like “Not now”

  • Jon

    Agree with James and Gareth, I think this description sounds awesome, are you all forgetting the last album they produced? As in, the one without any joke songs? The one with a more mature theme? That’s where they’re continuing from, get used to it.
    I for one am very excited.

  • Orian

    Calm down, James, we’re allowed to have opinions. Go be a shit head somewhere else.

  • adam

    I don’t see why blink fans talk so much crap, we got what we wanted their back together their still great. so what if the name of their song name is too long its just a name i bet it will be great

  • gareth

    thats very true Orian BUT OPINIONS TYPED IN CAPITALS ARE WORTH MORE:) hehe

  • James

    Chill out Orian u seem a bit irritated do u have sand in your vagina?

  • Kyle

    All I’m gonna say is this song will be epic as fuck, very much blink, and maybe all the blink fans will finally be satisfied and quit talking shit and speculating about how tom is gonna fuck the record up..

  • michelangelo

    man majority of you guys are such losers…i dont really ever post anything but after reading some of the shit on here i couldn’nt help but laugh. pretty much agree with that james dude, and yeah we all have opinions but people need to get over it and accept change!

    blink 182 in general are just fucking sick

  • Matt

    Isn’t post-hardcore like Boxcar racer?

  • gareth

    tsst

  • Kay

    I like how suddenly your all going “all you kids want piss and dick jokes” has anyone on here said that at all? No. stop fucking presuming. just because some people don’t want some gay-ass strained AVA and +44 mash up does not automatically mean they want jokes about fucking dogs.

    Christ, I hate blink fans. I swear ten years ago we weren’t this irritating.

  • gareth

    ten years ago we werent this hooked into the net!!!!

  • madne$$

    ok, i scrolled through a few comments..must say there are some dumb comments lol. this sounds like a rad sounding songs. oh yeah post hardcore=bands like fugazi, quicksand…rad

  • Arom Marquez

    okokokokok you guys are all right in your opinion and how you think about things..but I hope Mark goes oldskool for a while and performs naked on one show or two,that would be cool haha..at least for old and good times sake LOL xD

  • Blink-O

    no everybody please just calm down. lets ALL stop bitching now. blinks back, theres a new song on its way… enough for us all to be equally excited. lets draw the line here on all that fighting shit.
    ___________________________________________

    so… that title promisses a lot. maybe even epic stuff. but post hardcore doesnt sound bad at all.

    piano/guitar intro… slow verses… and straight forward rock choruses i say. :)

  • john

    i jsut wanna kno when it comes out

  • gareth

    Who here likes Tuna???…..i hate it! what with is fishy taste!

  • James

    Sounds cool, Im just sayin at least wait til the new stuff comes out and then if u dont like it fair enough but its kinda gay to make assumptions when no one has heard anything of their new material( which will kick ass) xD

  • -kyle-

    If it’s the same song that Tom described it will most likely be…awesome and i can’t wait to hear it.

    The title does kinda follow after the title of the song I’m Lost Without You.

  • Blink182+44BoxcarAngels

    haha sweet name title.. and i totally agree with james and gareth, there is no way blink is gonna go back ten years, theyre gonna continue going forward from their last album thats wat makes them so great. and just cuz they have a more mature feel doesnt mean theyre not blink as far as i can see, this is the exact same band that they were 4/5 yrs ago. most of u expecting shit and dick jokes cuz wat u only started downloadin blink music after the break up prolly already happened? and ur like 14/15 and expecting these grown men to still sing about goin to the prom? u shitheads! if they never formed ava or +44 non of u would complain becuz ud have nothin to compare it to nothing much has changed about this band except for maybe hairstyles, the way they dress and their age. ten years ago blink fans werent this irritating becuz they werent any fake fans like the ones that complain over every shit, 10 yrs ago blink fans loved everything about blink, it was blink or no blink nothing in between, love em or hate em, n if u hate em then keep ur asses off this site n go suck on jonas brothers.

  • Sloane

    You guys are Right, the title is too long. They need to go back to titles like Go, Going Away to College, What’s My Age Again, Give Me One Good Reason, and Stay Together For the Kids.

  • James

    Jonas brothers are so hot right now…

  • james01

    Hey guys, im the james that posted:

    I actually like the new songs name. Its kinda cool. Tom said that this new song sounded like the last song on the last album (untitled) which hopefully will sound something like “Not now”

    I’m not the other james.

    But anyway, I find that Tom sings like old tom when he is drunk. I mean, have you seen the t-mobile concert?. Tom is stone hammered drunk there and hes making “Fuck” jokes and being funny. And not to mention, but he sounded the same at the t-mobile concert as he did 4 years ago. If you listen to blink 182 on jay leno just the other night, he is using his ava voice. I’m not saying its bad, but i noticed its different from his blink voice.

    the Blink-182 news is enough for me from now on.
    Thanks to you: http://www.182online.com

    Blink-182 is gonna kick some major effin a$$ either way they sound.

  • DeLonge Master

    i would like to see them like, shorten the name to:
    Moon
    or
    Moon was gone
    or
    Gone
    or something like that :)

  • Kyle

    Nice post A.J. Lauer! I agree.

  • http://www.twitter.com/AJLauer A.J. Lauer

    oh yeah, btw, even though “tentative title” (which yes, will probably altered, or at least shortened), is kinda “whatever”. The explanation given about the theme of the song is Awesome.

    nobody on here even mentioned that.

  • james01

    Toms voice doesnt even bother me at all. At first i kinda hated it but after listening to it for a while i got used to it and now its not that bad.

    I just find that the only thing that needs to change about Tom is his hand gestures and the way he moves on stage. I mean, if you look at him preforming 5-6 years ago, he looks so cool. But if you watch Tom on stage now, it still looks like hes preforming for AVA. If you dont know what im talking about just watch Tom play live for AVA and then watch him play live for blink 182, and you will see a huge difference.

    why cant everyone just be happy and enjoy this time in our lives where our boys from blink are back together?! who seriously cares what the NAME of a song is called! last time i checked, i caer more about how a song SOUNDS, than what it is CALLED. It’s blink, they’re bakc, and i support them all the way. lets enjoy the ride.

  • Chase182

    yea, you guys suck if you think that tom delonge is bad. he is way cooler than youll ever be. and post-hardcore can be a lot of different things, it doesnt necesarily mean they are going to sound like hawthorne heights… when tom was talking about angels and airwaves being a rocknroll band… and that didnt necessarily sound like rockNroll.. calm down, blink knows what they are doing.

  • Chase182

    all systems down was a post-hardcore song i think. and that was a good song… along with i feel so.

  • Eddie

    I wouldn’t really call Hawethorne Heights post-hardcore. That was emo shit. Real post-hardcore is good, but I think that’s a major mislabeling of a blink song, unless they’ve added screaming to their repertoire. Old Funeral For A Friend (the EPs, Casually Dressed and Deep In Conversation, Hours) is post-hardcore. So is Scary Kids Scaring Kids and newer Thrice. I have a hard time believing blink did a post-hardcore song. Basically, post-hardcore is a slowed down, more melodic, “pretty” version of hardcore with clean vocals and screaming.

  • chris

    you guys are ridiculous. you bitch for 5 years about how blink is gone and now they are finally back and writing new music and yet you still arent happy. you are the same people who wish blink was still sining about dicks and boners. grow up. blink has.

    as for the new song..not a big fan of the title but im sure it will grow on me. it will probably sound like boxcar racers heavier stuff

  • http://www.justinepulles.com steen182

    I agree with all the people the majority of you agreed with. I think we all just need to shut up and be happy for one second that Blink even came back, and be grateful we’ll get to see them tour and produce music together again!

    Ultimately, this isn’t even about what we want, it’s about what makes Mark, Tom, and Travis happy. And if you like them whatsoever, you should accept anything they have to give us.

  • http://182online.com James

    JUST BE HAPPY THAT BLINK 182 IS ACTUALLY BACK YOU FRIGGIN ASSHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I THINK THE TITLE IS COOL AND THE SONG IS GONNA BE BADASS NO MATTER WHAT THE TITLE IS.

    Dude I absolutely love sticking fish sticks in my A***** btw the new blink dong will be ridiculously gnarly so suck on my nips

  • tyler

    tom said that he started to use effects and stuff when they went back to blink but he figured out soon that it wouldnt work so he went back to the blink stuff. so the stuff is going to be like ava except toms voice will be in it.

    Yea i totally agree with waggy..Suck on his nipssss

    well said AJ Lauer. The theme of the song is indeed very interesting, great ideas, i jus get goosebumps when these three guys develop on an idea together and make it into something so great. Whatever the title may be its not bad either way the theme they explained is a brilliant outlook and cant wait to hear that song.

    oh man you haven’t ever listened to this fucking song and you moan about it.

    Um…. Check out my link?

    they will probably chanse the title remmmber “action” it became feeling this

  • Boner

    Maybe that song has also sth. to do with the things that happened b4 blink was reuniting, and that was not happy stuff. so dont expect some new enema or dude ranch, i mean how retarded can u possibly be to criticize stuff that seem to describe things going on in their heads without even have listened to it one fucking time. okay the title is not blink-like, but if they had named it “night”, “moon” or “gone” u would have called it fuckin awesome! i totally trust in mark and travis and even tom admitted that some stuff he had in his mind doesnt fit blink! so just let us wait!

  • The Yellow Flash

    GREAT NAME, i love “emo” (as you call it) songs like adam song, story of a lonely guy and such, if it’s like that will rulez!

    Awesome title, i bet it will be a awesome song as well. And for you who is complaining, just shut up, this is a continuation of where the last album left of so like some said, dont expect dog and piss jokes.

    Tom is awesome, Mark is awesome, Travis is awesome. So this can only end well :D

  • me

    WoooW

    Imaage this a year ago??

    gunna be a mix of box car, AVA and +44 in my opinion as well as late blink, they even said this song could have gone on the last record, if u want old blink your wasting your time they’ve gone if wanna listen to that stuff theres like a million little pop punks bands influenst by that sstuff for you

  • Ben

    People complaing about Blink not being playing like they did in the Enema Of The State era should take a look at Sum 41. They emerged from being part of the late 90′s/ early 2000′s pop punk scene. They evolved like everyone else, developing their pop sensabilities with a heavier, more metal-esqe sound. Then, their new album had come out and felt like it was a step back in their evolution of being artists. Their songwriting had nevertheless improved but reproducing the punk pop music didnt feel the same.It felt they were trying to clamber to the time they had their biggest success.

    Now if Blink brought out another Enema, I would be disappointed as their last album was indeed their finest work (AP agree with me). To hear they are using “Post-Hardcore” is great as my taste in music has also evolutionised by listening to Alexisonfire,Thrice, ECT. Plus, look at how their own tastes in music has changed. Whether they can produce an album from coming from 3 radically different musical backgrounds (Mark = Indieish, punk rock, Travis = Hip Hop, Tom = Stadium rock) will no doubt be great as they has quoted of still keeping the Blink melodies we all love.

    As long as it aint pop or Canible Corpse, im happy!

  • DeAtH StAr ThEoRy

    lol..i know!

  • http://www.meecrobmovie.tk ryansirico

    just because their new shit is serious and meaningful doesn’t mean its just like ava. God these little bitches who keep complaining about every little detail are probally like 14 years old. Tom has always sucked live, so dont complain NOW if he sucks live because if u look at any videos or were old enough to see them live like 5-7 years ago he has always sucked. Stop complaining! As for the new song…it sounds like a sick title to me. Anything new from blink will please me and ill find a way to enjoy it and respect their musical direction, not complain about it. This new song is gunna be sick an di cant wait to see them live AUGUST 9TH!!!!

  • Superdelonge

    Ok, post hardcore is bands like silverstien, fightstar, but silverstien is proberly gonna be the best example, and i think the song title is cool :) the songs gonna be hard. its not going to sound anything like ava so use should all stop complaining about that, we should all just enjoy the music they create.

  • Superdelonge

    Oh and also, we’re never going to hear the old blink again, the band has grown up, just like we all do…

  • 182danAvA

    would all of the haters please shut up man , i mean none of us have herd the song yet so why are you being harsh to tom , i mean BLINK 182 is back you should all be happy and not moaning.

  • kobajagi

    O_o Cant wait to see video for this song . CANT WAIT !!!
    ps. all who doubt about that song are queers and buttpirates

  • markus

    “It sounds like it was the lost track of the untitled record,” says DeLonge so this gonna sound something like not now and asthenia and thats really good shit

    hey lads sorry to butt in now but does anyone know anything about the vancouver show? can i still get tickets from livenation or can i get them anywhere?

  • Lewis Chappell

    I love the last album. I have friends who don’t like it as much as the pop punky effort of yesteryear but that album really is amazing. I can listen to it on repeat quite easily. Blink can continue down whichever path they choose…because frankly, I’m just happy they’re back.

    To all the idiots out there, Blink will no longer sound like Enema of the State.

    It won’t sound like pop-punk, 1999 so-cal rock.

    It will sound like their 2003 self titled, and it will remain that way. Either let the fuck go or give the fuck up, because I like what their doing. If you don’t, go back to sucking off Simple Plan.

    mark tweeted:

    “For the record, the new blink-182 song is actually called “Up All Night,” but I still love the title “the day the sun said ‘suck it.”

  • Zechariah

    Mark just tweeted and said the song is actually called “Up All Night” cool.

  • Adim

    Armor For Sleep labels their songs as post-hardcore. I’m really freaking psyched to hear their new stuff.

  • bobby jane

    i hate emo tom, though +44 with mark was pretty emo…we want the old blink 182…and post hardcore??? thats not blink 182!!! blink is pop, punk not this shit!! oh well it is blink…so it will still be good

  • PunkJester

    a lot of people say that people get older and are gonna change o get with the times, just like a lot how a lot of people fear will happen with blink. Yeah, i dont want blink to change from how they were and they dont need to just cuz they have gotten to their late thirties. i mean… look at nofx… they are as drunk and idiotic as they always been. and look at the offspring. they are band from the 90s that still sound the same :]

    and when people said they want blink back, they mean the swearing, constantly imitating masturbating, little turdy punks they used to be. not this stuff they gave up blink to do

    i know blink wont let us down :]

  • PunkJester

    and i forgot to mention that “feeling this” is about sex and “easy target” is about getting lucky with your crush. both are from their last album and they dont seem as mature as a lot of you are saying they are.

    and by the way, mark and tom are still acting like immature douchebags live (well more tom i guess) and that is hella cool!!!

  • sam deutsch

    Post Hardcore is like a blend of emo and screamo. How could they do this. Blink is definatly not post hardcore

    blink 182 will always be nr. 1! And the title is AWESOME “new favorite word”, and it’s just a single? Okay.. Don’t judge ‘em so fast.. Okay.. If you really like blink 182, you don’t care if the music changes a bit.. I’ve always liked ‘em because they didn’t clean up for the public.. You guys are, and I’ve been told not to cuss, ducking awesome! I really hope that you’ll visit Denmark, just for a bit..! btw, it’s in europe.. :D

    See you guys! Keep it up!!!

  • tolateforthat

    haha wow i would think blink as post hardcore. this should be intresting

  • Tyler

    Ok, post-hardcore is a band like Thursday. They’re the perfect example no doubt!!
    But when they say post-hardcore, I think they mean for them, which is why my guess is that it will be along the lines of Stockholm Syndrome/Obvious/Violence, which I’m perfectly fine with!!

  • Jorge

    come on!! emo??? shit??? why you judge before hearing?! I miss you, stay together for the kids, down, I’m lost without you, what went wrong?, story of a lonely guy …. imagine that you have never listened to them. do the titles sound like WOOOOOOOW THAT’S FUNNY!!!!
    grow up, you must learn how to wait..

  • danny

    post-hardcore is also screamo the likes of enter shikari is classed as post-hardcore they are defo not emo lol

  • TheDayInABlink

    blink 182 isnt going to change their popy style for the most dischord and screaming kind of post hardcore as A.J. Lauer said box car racer was a post harcore band.

    Post hardcore started off as a more hardcore and metalicc punk but has evolved into a more pop kind of rock.

    Previous blink 182 songs such as stockholm syndrome have post hardcore influenses including the powerfull rhithms and high toned vocalizations.

    Who thinks post-hardcore is emois clearly clueless here…

    Actually post-hardcore is way more heavy than Blink teens songs were. WAY more!

  • http://myspace.com/andycontrol andy empires

    post hardcore is necessarily emo. its just heavier punk/hardcore with more singing less yells. more like thursday less like hawthorn heights.

  • CJ

    Post hardcore is a sound like Rival Schools, still pretty awesome stuff! I just can’t wait for a new blink album!

  • Peter Cribs
