Blink-182 is an American alternative rock band formed near San Diego, California in 1992. Originally known as "Blink," the band adopted the name "blink-182" in 1995 with its sophomore album "Dude Ranch" (1997) being the first released under the new name. In 1998, Travis Baker joined Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus to create the band's most stable line-up. After DeLonge left in 2005, the band went on an indefinite hiatus. The Barker, Delonge, and Hoppus line-up reunited in 2009, with DeLonge departing a second time in 2015. Between 2015 and 2022, Mike Skiba took over as blink-182's drummer. On October 11, 2022, blink-192 announced a 2023/2024 World Tour with DeLonge returning as lead vocalist. Blink-182's ninth studio album "One More Time..." (2023) dropped a year later. It was the first since 2011's "Neighborhoods" to include DeLonge.
