Blink 182 is back! ... Without Tom DeLonge. Seems like any type of reboot from my childhood just doesn't feel the same anymore *Cries*. Anyways, since Tom was part of many side projects, he and the band thought it was best to part ways *cries even more*. His replacement? Alkaline Trio's Matt Skiba.

Many wanted to see how that would work out. How would his voice fit with the rest of the band (considering that he is scheduled to sing)? Well, Mark Hoppus has the lead in "Bored to Death" so I guess well have to wait for their new Album "California" which comes out on July 1, 2016.

This song sounds dope. It opens us with the usual Blink 182 muffled/flanger drums sound intro. Speaking of, Travis Barker (as usual) kills it on the drums, Mark sounds better than ever, and the guitar work doesn't sound too far off from Blink's original stuff. One difference in the song is that it sounds a bit like the other pop-punk bands of the 2000's; like Good Charlotte, Simple Plan, Yellowcard, and Sum 41. Yes, they do technically fall under the same genre but I always felt like Blink 182 sounded different form them.

Either way I think the song is awesome. What are your thoughts? You like it ? Hate it? Can't wait for their new album?  What is life without Tom?  Comment below.
