blink-182 drummer Travis Barker has been very busy in the studio since the band got back from tour…
Machine Gun Kelly and blink-182's Travis Barker have unleashed another pop-punk banger, concert for aliens.
Following the release of the super-catchy Bloody Valentine back in May, Machine Gun Kelly and blink-182's Travis Barker have teamed up for yet another colossal pop-punk single, concert for aliens.
The energetic track was first teased on Good Morning America last month, and is taken from MGK's upcoming pop-punk album Tickets To My Downfall. The rapper took to Twitter upon concert for aliens' release to reveal that it was actually the last song written for the record – adding, "I think we made it like two weeks ago."
Machine Gun Kelly also teased that there's "Two songs dropping this week", so stay tuned for another track on the way…

In an interview with Zane Lowe earlier this year, Machine Gun Kelly explained that work on Tickets To My Downfall began late last year, with his creative partnership between himself and Travis feeling so natural and inspiring that they pretty much instantly decided to write a record together.
“This whole thing started out with one studio session,” he said. “We’ve been great friends for a decade. So this was just like, ‘Hey, let’s just do a random day of work.’ The energy was so immense that came from it…
“And it was so powerful that Travis was like, ‘Fuck it, I’m blocking off two months of my life and we’re doing this album.’ So I know it has some of that feel and some of that album’s classic nostalgia in this because otherwise we wouldn’t have just stopped everything we were doing to do this.”

And check out the lyrics:
Alright
The headlines say "The world is over"
What ever happened to a fairytale ending?
You can't pass if you don't know the codeword
I'm inside a UFO crash landing
I'm in a room by the door with a space invader
I know that I'm immature
But at least I'm not a goddamn failure
SOS, I'm callin'
SOS, I'm callin' out
SOS, I'm fallin'
SOS, I'm fallin' now
Upside down, upside down, upside down
My life is rollercoaster, rollercoaster
Get me off this rollercoaster
(Get me off this rollercoaster)
I heard you never graduated from high school
The food sucked and the kids were awful
I know you wanted me to go to law school
I dyed my hair, pierced my nostril
I know I've done this before
But it's a mind eraser
I'm wakin' up in on the floor
I gotta get my life back later
SOS, I'm callin'
SOS, I'm callin' out
SOS, I'm fallin'
SOS, I'm fallin' now
Upside down, upside down, upside down
My life is a rollercoaster, rollercoaster
Get me off this rollercoaster
I'm in too deep, I feel too much
I'm insecure, I fuck things up
I'm in too deep, I feel too much
I'm insecure, I did, fuck
SOS, I'm callin'
SOS, I'm callin' out
SOS, I'm fallin'
SOS, I'm fallin' now
I'm callin', I'm callin', I'm callin', I'm callin' out
I'm fallin', I'm fallin', I'm fallin', I'm fallin' now
I'm callin' (SOS), I'm callin', I'm callin', I'm callin' out
I'm fallin' (SOS), I'm fallin', I'm fallin', I'm fallin' now
Fuck, I said the wrong lyric
Ooh, keep that
