Editorial Reviews
CD Description
After releasing a number of 7" singles over the years, Blink 182 offers CHESHIRE CAT, its full-length album. The San Diego based group (that started out as El Cautro and the Caj'ones) has honed its playing, songwriting, and surfboarding skills to create a fun record for all. Punky and melodic, CHESHIRE CAT is a great party album. The pace rarely lets up andthe songs don't wander too far stylistically, but nothing exceeds like excess!
"Does My Breath Smell?" is a funny tune of teenage ambivalence. Furiously fast, the song begs oneto get up and move (and not care how you look). "Cacophony"starts off with a slow bass line leading into a melodic intro. The pace then accelerates, with speedy riffs and crashing drums. "Romeo and Rebecca" throws some slight changes and ska into the mix, while album closer "Depends" has vocalist Tom Delonge unable to control his bladder. Blink-182 is a spirited group, coming up with hysterical lyrics and tight, well produced music. They are a skate and surf band who can really play, and this album should appeal to punk and hardcorefans.
Customer Reviews
The Best Blink Album EVER
This is by far and away the best Blink 182 album ever, i bought almost 5years ago and it's way better than the later released titles Emema of The State and Take off Your Pants and Jacket. It's a more punkier side to Blink that lacks in their new music. If your going to buy a Blink Album this is the one! But if you don't like it punk and prefer pop go for "Enema of the State" or "Take off Your Pants and Jacket"
Brilliant album gotta be bought!
After watching the video for "Dammit" on MTV i imediately became a massive fan of Blink and started to collect all albums. Obviously got Enema which is a fantastic album just a shame they went into the mainstream with "All the small.." and then labelled sell outs!(Whatever critics, just following the trend of the sell out theme)
Cheshire Cat is the last album of Blink i bought as it took me ages to find it, but its a wicked album. Better sound quality than Budda but the songs are all fantastic especially "Carousal" "touchdown boy" ""Wasting time" and the classic "Peggy Sue". If you listen to this album properly like Dude Ranch(Blinks best album)you will see Blink write excellent punkrock songs bout things that have happened to them growing up which we can sometimes relate to also just wicked immature songs bout toilet humour!
Regardless you cannot deny Toms distinct excellent nasil vocals and wicked guitar riffs and Marks catchy bass riffs only wish Scott would slow down his drumming as he seems to rush through the songs, good drummer but not a patch on the legendary Travis. This in my opinion Blinks 2nd best album behind Dude Ranch, "Enema" and "Pants and Jacket" are also very good albums but you cannot deny both Cheshire Cat and Dude Ranch are albums of Blink at their best.
True Blink fans MUST own this album.
Buy This Album!
This is a great album by the greatest band. Having bought just about every Blink album this is one of my favourites. It is refreshingly different from Enema of the State and Take off Your Pants and Jacket. Even though the songs may sound quite similar to each other, you will find yourself listening to them over and over again.
This is a great album so buy it.
