Update: The band have just shared a video with the caption STAY TUNED:

Original story: It’s coming up to a year that blink-182 announced the incredible news that they’d reunited with Tom DeLonge – and in that time, the pop-punk legends have been hard at work on a new record.

Now, returning frontman Tom has promised that we’re not going to have to wait too much longer to hear what the band have conjured up following October 2022 comeback single EDGING, as he says that “blink-182 music video(s) and album are only weeks (days) away. We are finally here.” Hell yeah!

Bassist Mark Hoppus also took to the blink-182 Discord to share that he’d given the finished record a spin while out on a stroll in London and very much liked what he was hearing: “Last night I walked through Hyde Park listening to the new album and got so hyped.”

In July, while unveiling his new limited edition Stratocaster guitar, Tom said in a promotional video: “I still think we’re writing our best songs. I think our album coming out is probably our best album we’ve ever made.”
