Blink 182 – Cheshire Cat

Some bands are really shitty when they get commercial, so Blink182. This is their debut record from the year 1998, a nice and catchy melody punk record. They just signed at Cargo when they recorded Cheshire Cat. You can say there are two Blink182 phases, the pre and the post „Enema Of The State“ era. The two records before Enema Of The State are well done and nice punk records. A little bit rough, if you know their late stuff. This is not the typically white collage middle class sound, they made later on, this one fits perfect if you like Bad Religion, Descendents, early No Use For A Name or bands like that. They didn´t invent punk new, but they made a easy listening and catchy record.
