Episode 38: ‘blink-182’ with Timmy Francis

Untitled. Self-titled. Regardless of how to define it, ‘My
Classic Album’ ends 2020 looking at blink-182’s celebrated 5th
album with special guest Timmy Francis from pop punk pros As
December Falls.


While Mike and Timmy were listening to this album in their
formative years, blink-182 were going through a very experimental
and transitional phase; one that would ensure the band were never
quite the same again.


In what way did ‘I Miss You’ inspire a whole generation of bands?


What experience from producer Jerry Finn’s teenage years gave
inspiration to TWO songs on the album?


How close was Robert Smith’s appearance not making it on to the
album at all?


 


All these questions and more to be answered on another edition of
‘My Classic Album’


 


PLUS: Hear ‘Afterglow’, the latest single from Timmy’s band As
December Falls!
