blink-182 discord: discord.gg/bnpNMnpvrA Obviously all the riffs are not gonna be the EXACT same. But they're all definitely very similar. Like listen to asthenia and hallucinations.... Jeez tom. Obviously no hate to any of these songs. I love all of them but you can definitely tell he got inspiration from these songs or just straight copied them and called them new.
Most of these are distinct riffs imo. Eg. GOTDF has a different rhythm and adds the major third interval, Snake Charmer and Secret Crowds are completely different. I would've done Snake Charmer and The Machine instead, those are essentially the same riffs just in A instead of B.
Honestly its more impressive that he can do the same riffs in multiple songs and nobody bats an eye about it since he can make it sound differnet at the same time... Think smarter, not harder
This is totally normal, a guitar player has a signature style of playing like a shape, scale or a technique, Tom always uses power chords, octaves, palm muted, pull off's or fast downstrokes in a different major scale A, B, D, C... Anthem part 2 for a example has the same shape of riff from everything's magic in a C, not the same riff because melody changes. Every good guitarist can do that, that's not something wrong with Tom.
You are extremely dumb if you think they're 100% the same, thats not the point of the video. Theyre rhythmically and harmocally ans conceptually the same even if the tonic changes (you dont even know what that is) Its unbelievable how stupid you are
He is who he is. I'd say it's "his style." Most songwriters have that similar effect where their music "sounds like them." I always loved Tom for his ability to keep it simple and appealing. That's just my opinion though. Tom is the reason I started playing guitar. Although he is not per say my favorite guitarist or the "best guitarist" he certainly does have a knack fir writing memorable riffs. 😊
Hot take, none of these bother me at all, they are all different enough. Funnily, what bothers me more is vocal melodies for Everything’s Magic, Dry Your Eyes, and Restless Souls, but even that isn't a big deal. Man's got a vibe
Tom can use 4 chords and make more songs thay sound better than most bands that shred the reason they've beem around so long. Yet some of these band only last one album 🤣🤣
@@Kwisatz_HaderachXIII that’s not the point retard. The point was the video is wrong. And I do study music in my free time so I may not be an “expert” but I can guarantee I know more about musical theory than you
the most similar is everythings magic and anthem part 2 , the others only sound a bit alike, and if youre a musician yourself you can hear similarities, but most of them are entirely different. after all the music ABC consists only of 13 notes. all the riffs shown here sound different, and are musically very different. sometimes it is just chord slides, which is purely his style of playing so.. all good. there are tons of players who are way worse with recycling the actual riff or chords /progressions.
Did the producer of this video ever learn how to play guitar? I guess not, because he'd figured out these riffs aren't the same. Close but not the same. Jeez...
Just a title to catch someone's attention so they watch the video and I guess it worked considering you watched. I do play guitar. I've been playing for 8 years. Everything's magic and anthem part 2 are VERY similar. Same with asthenia and whatever the other song is I don't even remember this video is old now.
@@Jaxon_69 they are the same, Toms fans just wont accept it. Being a player and musician for 16 years, in some cases the key will change or the picking might be altered but even Tom said himself and i quote " i play the same things, i just added effects to it"
@goofball29 I don't know about *every* chorus in the song, but it's definitely (and imo only) apparent in the very last chorus, around the 3m 46s mark in the song
surprised no one talks more about Boring and Online Songs being the exact same riff. that’s the most aggressive offender imo. all of the other ones are different enough to not really be recycled but Boring and Online Songs?? same thing
Every note and every chord has been played on a guitar, what matters is the notes and chords you choose to play and the space between to accompany rhe emotions and feelings you want to express. Rhythm is everything.
Lmao compare the comments here to what they said about the riffs on California. It just goes to show how unbelievably fanatical Tom’s supporters are and how they’re Tom fans above any band or project. Also, Everything’s Magic and Dry Your Eyes are pretty much the exact same.
Nothing new here… We all know his riffs sound the same, but most of us don’t really take the time to care. It’s the music he creates around it that makes it sound amazing!
It's that classic blink signature style sound. If you can nail this then you're golden. Basically it's kind of plucked guitar playing mixed with medium shredding. Kinda like a vegan salad with a bit of meat sauce to it, but not too much.
You are extremely dumb if you think they're 100% the same, thats not the point of the video. Theyre rhythmically and harmocally ans conceptually the same even if the tonic changes (you dont even know what that is) Its unbelievable how stupid you are
yeaah tom is always using almost all the same chords progression, but idk i just love his/their catchy song, and as a guitarist he is technically not great too 😂😂
You could add in the little snippets of guitar just after the chorus of Good Day by AVA and Pretty Little Girl as they are very close but it’s such a good riff, I love them both.

Having a style isn't the same as recycling ideas. Bad video.
Most guitar players have a sound and style they play with. This is normal.
Sounds like Tom's style.
Haha, you should’ve read the first word of your video title before writing this comment
Tom loves the earth and contributes by recycling stuff…
Don’t forget he’s the one protecting it from aliens!
Yes he does so sweeeet
Retard alert
Yeah I don’t get it.
Recycle king
wait until you hear the ramones...
Honestly its more impressive that he can do the same riffs in multiple songs and nobody bats an eye about it since he can make it sound differnet at the same time... Think smarter, not harder
It’s in a different tune that’s why it’s easier to get away with
Tbh he does enough with the songs where they’re not just exact replicas
yet he is a fucking legend. simplicity is key
hey, if it ain't broke...
Gosh… Angels & Airwaves with Atom Willard on drums is unbeatable.
This is called a style of play, not the same riff..
Thanks for reminding me how awesome his guitar tone sounds
It’s Toms style and it’s kept me here since 2001 lol
Theyre all obviously different riffs, they dont even sound the same
This is totally normal, a guitar player has a signature style of playing like a shape, scale or a technique, Tom always uses power chords, octaves, palm muted, pull off's or fast downstrokes in a different major scale A, B, D, C...

There his riffs, he can do what he wants with them.
The first 2 were the same. The rest of the video was “huh these kind of sound similar”
You are extremely dumb if you think they're 100% the same, thats not the point of the video. Theyre rhythmically and harmocally ans conceptually the same even if the tonic changes (you dont even know what that is) Its unbelievable how stupid you are
Nearly every guitarist uses a variation of a their riffs in different songs.
Evey punk pop/punk band use the most basic powerchords and rearange them ever so slghtly. This is nothing new.
Wait till this guy learns there are only 12 notes in our western equal temperament system and blink use only 7 of them…
🥶
Easy Target, All of This, and The End With You
Easy target is right before all of this there's a reason there the same
That's why they are immediately recognisable. Its clever and all the top bands do it.. Look at U2 and COLDPLAY for other examples.
Yeah and it all rips. so what
He is who he is. I'd say it's "his style." Most songwriters have that similar effect where their music "sounds like them." I always loved Tom for his ability to keep it simple and appealing.

Yup & that's HIS sound
in the music business if it works, rinse and repeat....
Hot take, none of these bother me at all, they are all different enough. Funnily, what bothers me more is vocal melodies for Everything’s Magic, Dry Your Eyes, and Restless Souls, but even that isn't a big deal. Man's got a vibe
Tom didn’t write the melody for Restless Souls’ chorus. Aaron Rubin did. So you can remove that one I guess.
But he wrote them all😂🤷♂️
It's simple and works
Tom can make entire albums with just 3 fucking notes 👌🏻
He’s made like 10 now with 3 motes
sometimes musicians do it on purpose as a reminder to earlier material, its not uncommon at all, you can hear that on various other bands.
he should sue himself for coping his own riffs/progression
Tom can use 4 chords and make more songs thay sound better than most bands that shred the reason they've beem around so long. Yet some of these band only last one album 🤣🤣
To be fair, he never reused the same riff in the same band. Seems to me that he wanted those to be something more when he started Angels and Airwaves.
Try making 100 percent different guitar riffs for like 100+ songs man
Tom is incredible at recycling riffs
Eco friendly
These are not even the same riff
As someone who can play all of these songs there are slight differences in all of them as with all music across time
We (all million of us) can play these songs too. Your no expert.
@@Kwisatz_HaderachXIII that’s not the point retard. The point was the video is wrong. And I do study music in my free time so I may not be an “expert” but I can guarantee I know more about musical theory than you
@@H3LL0L053Rreal
You can’t do what he do 😄
It's literally Tom, but not literally the same riff....
the most similar is everythings magic and anthem part 2 , the others only sound a bit alike, and if youre a musician yourself you can hear similarities, but most of them are entirely different. after all the music ABC consists only of 13 notes. all the riffs shown here sound different, and are musically very different. sometimes it is just chord slides, which is purely his style of playing so.. all good. there are tons of players who are way worse with recycling the actual riff or chords /progressions.
And the songs are still different. This is what I would call talent. When you can find the versitality in the same thing.
still catchy asf love u tom
Ah yes, someone who doesnt play guitar trying to post a video about riffs
this is how i learned to play guitar.. its also why i pretty much only know Tom's songs
sameeeee he inspired me
Did the producer of this video ever learn how to play guitar? I guess not, because he'd figured out these riffs aren't the same. Close but not the same. Jeez...

@@JonathanCharron54 Also why are you commenting this on a 6 month old video. Nobody cares, dawg 💀.
@@JonathanCharron54 did you just read what you wrote?
still love him
I guess some of them are similar, but you're wrong. None of them are the same riff
I play guitar and they’re not the same
@@Reboot_psur not a very good guitar player then
May be repetitive, but they all sound great to me
In adam's song you can hear the anthem part 2 riff in the chorus
@goofball29 check songsterr overdub guitar (clean)
@goofball29 I don't know about *every* chorus in the song, but it's definitely (and imo only) apparent in the very last chorus, around the 3m 46s mark in the song
He also uses the same riff in you don't know what you've got chorus from the new album lol.
Everythings magic chorus riff sounds more like Wishing Well
its because theyre all played in similar locations on the neck... a key he is very comfortable writing in
...missed Anthem Part 3 🤭 they never sound the same though, to his credit.
Yeah... can tell you don't play at all. Lol
I can tell you’ve been playing for a week.
@@ballsinthechat nearly 20 years. Nice try through. ;-)
Yet they sound so different
How on earth did you miss the most obvious one of all of them?!
Box car racer - All Systems Go
Blink 182 - Up All Night
yesss
But those are not the same riffs
Proves you can make millions with ok guitar skills and ok/random voice. Good for him
surprised no one talks more about Boring and Online Songs being the exact same riff. that’s the most aggressive offender imo. all of the other ones are different enough to not really be recycled but Boring and Online Songs?? same thing
Dude I just listened to that after reading that and undeniably its uncanny
True
Upon hearing Boring I knew they made something like that
Online Songs is not a favorite of mine from the band so I didn't remember immediately
Forgetting the ben wah balls interlude riff which is extremely similar too
These riffs are not all the same and there's nothing wrong with recycling
why create something new when you already have a catalog of songs you can just replay and change the lyrics to over and over
and they still sound totally different. Genius.
That secret crowds part sounds just like a boxcar racer part
Is it the beginning of “The End with You”?
not bad over a 30+ year career. well done Tom.
tonight: guy on internet who has never touched a guitar is envious of a multimillionaire rockstar, more at 11!
For 53 seconds or his entire carrer?
hahahaha love tom love blink love ava ♥
Yeah you have to remember though Tom writes all his riffs so he’s incredible. I don’t care if he recycles some of his music. It sounds fantastic
The Secret Crowds riff sounds way more similar to Up All Night than it does Snake Charmer, it’s like the same thing but backwards
Atleast he rips off himself🤷♂️
The beauty of music. Its all been done before, but who can do it again the best;)
Tom can he'll have a new set in no time at all he doesn't take to long to release his next songs
Hey a songs a song, it’s Tom Delonge.
0:37 This is literally "This Is Halloween"
It's almost as if it's the same guy in both blink and AVA... crazy

Also, Everything’s Magic and Dry Your Eyes are pretty much the exact same.
I think everything's magic sounds more like disaster from dogs eating dogs
get anthem pt 3 in here, when it comes out
A lot of his stuff sounds very similar if not the same but he literally uses like 6 power chords stuff is bound to sound the same after 100s of songs
My favorite guitarist, ever.
Its not as similar as all guitar riffs on California 😂
and each one was amazing
you couldve done Epic Holiday after Everythings magic for the same riff.
That's melodies.
None of those are the same riff; rhythm, pitch and tempo all count.
There's a video like this for the California riffs too 😂
At least I guess he is not copying from other artists LoL
But he is the guitarist in angels and airwaves and is copying the guy from blink-182
@@realzekester123 hahahaha nice one, stills love tom, he is not copy, just is his style to make music, like a seal
All systems go - boxcar racer, secret crowds, snake charmer 😂
how to make a fortune off of the same 5 riffs
For his specific sound those chords are a must I don't have a problem with it, only 5 songs out of like 100 I'm cool with it
It’s punk. You only need 3 chords in punk rock.
Lol I use one one over and over again with a new arpeggio style each time
I love tom
Nothing new here… We all know his riffs sound the same, but most of us don’t really take the time to care. It’s the music he creates around it that makes it sound amazing!
He did say he plays the same just plays around with pedals
That's like saying an artist using blue for different projects is the same
It's that classic blink signature style sound. If you can nail this then you're golden. Basically it's kind of plucked guitar playing mixed with medium shredding. Kinda like a vegan salad with a bit of meat sauce to it, but not too much.

AND WE ALL LOVE TOM DELONGE NO MATTER WHAT (UNLESS HE QUITS THE BAND A 3rd TIME)
Then we get more AvA, win win
more like lose win@@StzaJack
Yeah, Tom's style.
Goes with the saying, “don’t reinvent the wheel” - did you know the Backstreet Boys had 4-5 hit singles with the exact same beat used in all songs?
For reference
