In a highly anticipated move, Blink-182 has unveiled two fresh tracks along with a captivating music video in anticipation of their forthcoming album, "ONE MORE TIME…".
The music video for "ONE MORE TIME…" serves as a poignant reunion for the band, marking Tom DeLonge's return after a hiatus from 2015 to 2022. This release also signifies a significant milestone as it is the first album featuring DeLonge since his return, following Mark Hoppus' battle with cancer in 2021 which led to the reconciliation between the two.
The lyrics of the singles delve into the trials and tribulations faced by the group throughout their journey. Hoppus, in a poignant moment, sings, "I wish they told us / It shouldn’t take a sickness / Or airplanes falling out the sky," reflecting the challenges that have shaped their narrative.
The resilient spirit of drummer Travis Barker, who miraculously survived a plane crash in 2008 that claimed four lives and left him with extensive third-degree burns, is also a focal point. The chorus echoes his sentiments, questioning, "Do I have to die to hear you miss me?"
The accompanying music video for "ONE MORE TIME" weaves together glimpses from the band members' personal and professional lives, offering a heartfelt visual narrative.
Fans can mark their calendars for the album's debut on October 20th. In addition to the album release, the band is revving up for an expansive world tour, promising an electrifying experience for Blink-182 enthusiasts worldwide.
