Whether or not this slightly grown-up iteration of blink lasts more than this one record remains to be seen, but on NINE it feels like the band are finding a new lease of life in the dark days of 2019

A few songs impress but the majority is meant to fill radio stations and leave you wondering where the magic this band held went

Blink-182 have always been intentionally juvenile, but in growing up and out of punk rock, they've never been more immature
