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 very weak band. They have/had a large fan base mainly because no one these days knows what good music is. There is almost no skill involved(except for the drumming which is great). Almost anyone could pick up a guitar or bass and play half their songs. Not punk, just bad.
person 1: hey look at me im so cool because i listen to crappy music like blink-182.
person 2: shutup and listen to some music that takes a bit of skill and concentration to create.

Probably the funniest band there is.... thas right, u people who are slagging off blink forget that its more than jus music that make a good band (but their music is outstanding anyway), it's who they are....and they are immature jokers! the music industry needs people like this to lighten things up. pull that dildo out of ur ass and start appreciating good music!

Blink-182 is an american band, consisting of three members, Tom Delonge (singer, guitarist) Mark Hoppus (singer, guitarist) and Travis Barker (Drummer). Blink-182 is pronounced Blink 1-82, although many people say Blink 1-8-2.
Blink-182 is not a punk/punk rock band. All I see is people saying Blink-182 isn't punk. This is true, but as far as I know, Blink-182 never claimed to be punk in the first place. They have been labelled as many different genres: pop-rock, rock, indie, alternative, pop-punk etc. In my opinion Blink are a Pop-Punk band, pop is stuff like Rihanna, One Direction, Pink, Justin Bieber and Nicki Minaj. Punk is bands such as The Clash, The Who or The Ramones. People who write definitions just to point out that Blink-182 are 'poser punks' clearly know nothing about Blink-182, and shouldn't be writing about them.
Blink's fanbase isn't only teenage girls, emo's or skaters. And if you asked everyone at my high school whether they heard of blink, they won't have.
Tom's voice, is, in my opinion, beautiful. But lots of people will see at as extremely annoying and whiny. Tom has been in two other bands: Angels & Airwaves and Box Car Racer. Travis was also a member of Box Car Racer, as well as being the drummer for Mark Hoppus's second band: +44.

Lame pop punk GreenDay rip off band claiming to be actual punk but are too wussy to actually sing about real issues or do anything contraversial.

A gay "punk" rock band that has became a hit mostly with teenage girls and some occasional skater fags. All of there songs deal with some type of girl or relationships making them repetitive and unoriginal. Guitar chords are repeated through out all songs with no change and bass is slow and boring. The only talanted member of the band is Travis Barker who's drum skills have been tragicaly wasted with the whinnying of Tom Delong. People think they are the best band ever and the idol of punk music, when they have no idea who the sex pistols or The Clash are. Open your fucking eyes.
Dumb Girl- OMG! Did you hear that new Blink-182 Song?????
Normal Girl- Oh that one that sounds the same and deals with the same stuff as all of there other songs????
Dumb Girl-...............yeah.....
Skater Fag- Yo Dude, that Blink song so relates to my relationship dude, its like so true and real
Normal Guy- Actually it relates to your life in no way, stop thinking they are singing about your life
Skater Fag- Fuck you man, im gonna Skateboard!!!!

A pop-punk band with three guys, Mark- base, Tom- guitar, and Travis- drums. They've been around for about 12 years now and started out with really good music, like Cheshire cat in '94 and Dude Ranch in '97. I think those were kick ass. They sounded the most punk in those. Thats also when they had Scott (who looked like fruit) on the drums before he left.
To th ppl who think blink is gay and suck because they say they are not punk are the f%cking gay ones...if they really sucked so bad then they wouldent have all these tributes out
and be this successful (they probly play better then your shitty band).
!!! FOREVER LIVE BLINK182
f#ckers !!!
