Listen To blink-182's New Single, Blame It On My Youth
blink-182 have dropped a brand-new single, Blame It On My Youth.
It's been a long time coming, but new music from blink-182 is finally here!
The trio – Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker and Matt Skiba – have unveiled their first new tune since 2017's deluxe edition of California, and it very much follows their comments about an "anything goes" approach to their sound, rather than the straightforward pop-punk route.
Speaking exclusively to Kerrang!, Mark previously said that he wanted to return to the mentality of blink's Untitled album.
“After playing in this band for 27 years, I want to push it and do different things and take blink to places where we haven’t been before," he explained. "We’re really trying to do that on the new record. We want to do with our band what we did in 2003 with Untitled, where we take our foundations and go off in completely weird directions."

In other news, Mark revealed earlier that European fans will have to wait a little while to see blink-182.
In a Q&A on Twitter overnight, Mark was understandably asked several blink-related questions – including if European fans would get to see blink-182 live this year.
"not in 2019 but we’re looking at 2020," the bassist replied, before then answering further questions about the "perfect set length" (80-90 minutes in Mark's opinion), and whether he thought that the criticisms of the band's set lists being unchanging or repetitive are justified ("somewhat but you gotta play the hits. what songs would you remove?")
