Blink 182
Blink 182 is an American rock band formed in Poway, California, in 1992. The band consists of vocalist/bassist Mark Hoppus, vocalist/guitarist Tom DeLonge (until 2015), and drummer Travis Barker. They gained mainstream popularity in the late 1990s and early 2000s with their energetic and catchy punk-pop sound. Blink 182's breakthrough album, "Enema of the State" (1999), spawned hit singles like "All the Small Things" and "What's My Age Again?," propelling them to commercial success and cementing their place in pop-punk culture. The band's irreverent sense of humor and relatable lyrics appealed to a generation of fans, particularly teenagers, making them icons of the genre. Despite going on hiatus in 2005 and experiencing lineup changes, Blink 182 continued to release music and tour, with their 2016 album "California" marking a successful return. Today, they remain influential figures in the alternative rock scene, known for their energetic live performances and continued dedication to making music.
