A pop punk band formed in 1992 by guitarist Tom Delonge and bassist Mark Hoppus. First drummer was Scott Raynor. Formally known as Blink, they had to change their name to avoid a lawsuit from an Irish band with the same name.

Later on in 1997, Scott decided to leave the band to pursue his education, so new drummer Travis Barker joined. Since then, they have come out with 6 LPs. In 2005, the band took a break to spend more time with their families.

Fuck Donald trump, AKA the worst president ever.

The one hundred and eighty second time an eye lid is closed followed by an immediate re-opening.

Not a punk band, theoretically. Ramones are punk. Sex Pistols are punk. The Buzzcocks are punk. Nonetheless, Blink 182 rock! They did NOT become crap after Enema Of The State (Just for the record) And in England we say 1-8-2, not 1-82, just so ya know.

-a band popular in the 90s
-neo-punk (may be consider as pop punk or prep punk)
-is commonly frowned upon by hardcore, punk, and classical rock fans
-has a strong cult and following
-is known for a voice that is slightly more high pitched voice than other punk bands, highly distorted guitar, very easy bass lines, and good drum lines.
-known for being reckless and the usual hooligan teens
-in my opinion, they are usually not given the credit they deserve because they are commonly not popular around teenage boys, and are dubbed "gay" or "bad music" by peer pressure.

a band that "real punks" like to make fun of because they arent quite punk enough for them. Blink 182 is one of the most original bands out there, and its not impossible to like hardcore punk and Blink-182. They are not Simple Plan and they are not Good fucking Charlotte. They were around before those bands were picking up instruments, so suck my fucking cock if you don't like them

Tom, Mark and Travis.
Used to be funny, now they're trying too hard to be Serious. I just wish they'd go back to their stupid "Lets run around town naked" days.

Blink182 isn't punk.
But the members of the band are.

Travis also plays Drums for The Transplants, with Tim Armstrong (Singer from Rancid) (Guitar and Vocals) and Skinhead Rob (Vocals).
