Travis Barker reveals he’s recorded two albums in the past two months
blink-182 drummer Travis Barker has been very busy in the studio since the band got back from tour…
While we’re still waiting for an update on blink-182’s touring plans following Travis Barker’s “urgent family matter”, the band have started to tease new music!
Exciting news: the blink-182 teasers are coming…
Following last month’s update from frontman Tom DeLonge that the pop-punk legends’ new music videos and album “are only weeks (days) away”, the trio have launched an intriguing new website, while posters are popping up across the globe.
Up first we’ve got the interesting matter of their official website – over at the link blink182.com/stall – which is currently ‘closed for maintenance’. However if you fancy just sitting and watching the screen while waiting for the site to reopen, you’ll see a cleaner in a hazmat suit getting rid of graffiti in a bathroom, while listening to blink. And not only are they spinning the classics, but it sounds like there’s a snippet of something new in there too…
That’s cool enough in itself, but fans have also started seeing blink posters pop up in their local areas – from Toronto to Chile. The prints show the band’s iconic logo, with the words, “One more time…”
Take a look at some of what’s going on below:
Of course, last week blink announced that the first few shows of their UK and European tour were postponed, with Travis Barker having to fly home to America due to an “urgent family matter”. We haven’t yet had an update on that situation, though thankfully places are reporting that his wife Kourtney Kardashian – who is pregnant with his child – is home and “feeling better” after a recent hospital visit.
Catch blink-182 at the following UK dates next month:
