And he's considered to be one of the most genius musicians of the past 50+ years and....ever.
Now, he's considered to be a genius not for his music, but his lyrics, but you never mentioned the lyrics of Blink 182, you just mentioned that their songs were easy.

Maybe you've fallen into the Dream Theater complex

My problem with Blink 182 is the singing, mostly. Along with other stuff, too. But still.

And, no, I don't like Bob Dylan, really, but I just as easily could.
