Is it just me or do Box Car Racer and Blink 182 sound exactly the same?

But the fact that it's a side project where they actually said they were trying to bring out more mature/darker songs and also show other influences (post-hardcore) kind of suggests Box Car should not sound like Blink. Of course, there are bound to be similarities, but if the two bands sound 'exactly the same' as whoever wrote this topic said, the band are pretty much defeated in what they set out to acheive already...

I got it today from the good ol' mvc website. Some amazing songs, some very poor ones and some average. I think after a few listens I'll be loving most of it, it's just one of those albums.
