Since their humble beginnings nearly 30 years ago, when they started playing in a San Diego garage, Blink-182 have sold over 50 million albums worldwide and rocked audiences from Adelaide to Zurich having become one of the defining rock bands of their generation.
According to The New York Times: "No punk band of the 1990s has been more influential than Blink-182. While the band have already racked up more than their fair share of platinum records and blockbuster singles, they are looking forward to their 10th studio album. With Delonge back after nearly a decade fans can expect that electric on stage magic that the trio have always delivered over the years. With their new album due in 2023, Blink-182 is stoked to be facing their future together.”
