New Blink 182!!!!

Wowsa! When's the last time we saw a Blink 182 music video?!?!?!?

Check out the newly released video (above) for After Midnight, from Blink's new album Neighborhoods.

As we said back in July when we heard their first new single Up All Night, it really feels like these guys never left us!

Now, if U'll excuse us, we're gonna watch the video again while enjoying some Dunkaroos and and hopping around on our Moon Shoes.

…Yeah, we miss the 90's…LOLz!

Travis Barker Opens Up About The Plane Crash That Nearly Took His Life.

travis-barker-opens-up-about-the-plane-crash-that-nearly-took-his-life

We can't imagine how this WOULDN'T change your perspective on pretty much everything in life.

It's been three years since Blink182 drummer Travis Barker nearly lost his life in a devastating plane crash, and the musician has recently opened up about the effect that the accident had on him. Although he still refuses to fly, Barker has managed to make some serious improvements to his lifestyle, which included recovering from an addiction to painkillers that he had before the crash, as well as a change in his diet and exercise regiment!

Blink182 Is BACK! Check Out Their New Single Up All Night HERE!

And the '90s suddenly came crashing back to us!

Although it's been a long time coming, the new single from the recently reunited Blink182 has just dropped, and we think it's safe to say that it feels like these guys never left us at all!

Ch-ch-check out Up All Night, off of their upcoming album, Neighborhoods (above)!

Definitely sounds like more of their earlier stuff, with a splash of Tom's side project, Angels & Airwaves, thrown in there for good measure!

We approve!

Good to have you back, guys! Can't wait to hear the rest of the new album!

What do U think?? Are U feeling new Blink??

Avril Lavigne Selling Her Mansion

avril-lavigne-puts-house-up-for-sale.jpg

Avril Lavigne and her ex Deryck Whilbley are selling a part of their past — their Los Angeles mansion.

The two have put up their former home for sale. It features eight bedrooms and ten and a half bathrooms along with a 10-car garage.

The two originally purchased the Bel Air house back in 2007 from Travis Barker. Unfortunately, Lavigne filed for divorce in 2009 and now the house is up for sale.

The home is over 12,000 square feet on over half an acre of land and also features a gym with sauna and a wine cellar.

As for the asking price, that’s currently at $9.5 million.

Good luck trying to sell it in this economy.

New Blink182 Is STILL On Its Way!

mark-hoppus-talks-new-blink182-album

It's coming, guys! Just be patient!

We announced a few months ago that Blink182 was planning on reuniting this summer, to not only go on tour, but to release a brand new album of material, and now lead singer Mark Hoppus wants you to know that this is still the plan, but because of drummer Travis Barker's solo gig taking up some time, the new material may not come together in the timeline they originally anticipated!

He explains:

"We are still planning for an early-to-midsummer release, we're working very hard at it. Right now Travis is back on the road, so I'm back in L.A. working on the record, [guitarist Tom DeLonge's] working on the record, we're sending stuff to Travis; as soon as [he] gets back, hopefully Tom and I will have the album in a shape where Travis can come in and we can spend, you know, a month, month-and-a-half working really hard on pounding out the album and get it done. It's definitely a very different process … before, at least we were all in the same room at the same time. With this, with Travis having his solo record, me being in L.A., and Tom doing his stuff and also being in San Diego, at first it felt like maybe it was a bit piecemeal, but now it feels like we're getting into a good rhythm. Between sending songs back and forth to each other, we'll all meet up in the studio every few weeks and go over everything, listen down to everything and I'll say, 'OK, I love what you did with this idea. Let me take this song for a week and try some ideas on it.' And I'll take a song for a week, try a bunch of stuff on it, present it back to everybody else, they'll make their comments and then move on from there. There's songs that I think are finished that we go back and work on some more, there's songs that I think are going to take a long time and they end up progressing pretty quickly. I feel like we've worked on about 16 tracks, of which 12 of those are making the cut. When songs don't seem to be working, we let them fall by the wayside, and I think we're pretty good about putting the better songs forward. So, we're working on 12, five or six of those are in states that are near completion, and the other ones are formed ideas with structures and parts — they just need filling in. The skeletons are all there, we just need to fill in the pieces."

Hey! Life gets in the way, and we can be patient!

We just want to make sure that this actually happens! We have heard some new Blink in quite some time, and we're looking forward to hearing how your sound has evolved!

Take your time, guys, and we can't imagine that you'll disappoint!

What do U think?? Are U excited for new Blink?
