I don't mind Blink 182, and I'll tell you why. Blink has actually done some decent songs in their career (I know I'm gonna catch some heat for this) such as "Adam's Song." Very poorly written lyrically, Adam's Song does still impress me in one specific way: the intro. The intro isn't complicated or anything, but it starts on the fifth and ends on a root. That's nothing special, but it's something that I see in a lot of rock intros, which means that Blink actually knows SOMETHING, although not much, about music. Unlike Good Charlotte, who tunes the guitar into drop D and frets strings randomly, Blink actually knows what they're doing. That said, I can't stand their music, but I'll give credit where it's due. Musically speaking, Blink's earlier stuff was pretty decent, and WAY better than most pop. However, Blink made the cover of "guitar world?" I'm actually kind of cool with it, magazines never get anything right, look at Rolling Stone's top 100 guitarists.
