Check the new queue to see if it has already been posted. Love them or hate them, blink-182 is here to stay for at least a while longer, and “EDGING” is only the beginning of a new era for the pop-punk pioneers.The blink-182 subreddit is here to discuss all things related to the band blink-182. Spirits are soaring as each member reveals just a bit more about the new album everyday, with DeLonge even referring to it as “the best album of career.” It’s a claim that carries some serious weight for me, as a die-hard Enema of the State defender, but I’m left all the more excited to see what blink has in store for us all! With “EDGING” came the announcement of blink-182’s biggest tour ever, spanning from Latin America and North America to Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, not including the several festival appearances the band have in between. It’s not their best, but it’s not their worst either at the end of the day, the song does a darn good job at what it’s trying to do, and that’s bring three old friends together as well as remind us of what the band are about at their core: fun, energy, and euphoria. I know there’s a special place in hell That my friends and I know well There’s a perfect place to go When it’s time to lose control Nightmare, daydream You can’t save me blink-182 is sticking to what they do best, and that is fun music with non-pretentious and unapologetically explicit lyrics. The song isn’t quite a show of lyrical or sonic maturation for the band, but it couldn’t be more fitting for a comeback based around returning to their roots. What has remained the same over the years, however, is the fact that blink-182 embrace never growing up, as they continue to proudly sport the “punk rock kid” label approaching their 50s. ![]() I’m a punk rock kid, I came from hell with a curse She tried to pray it away, so I fucked her in church Don’t you know? Don’t you know? Don’t you know? Yeah, don’t you know? Whether this is due to the more modern production or the unfamiliarity of hearing DeLonge and Hoppus’ voices together after so many years, the track is still unmistakably blink-182, and that isn’t something most bands can say after a decade-long hiatus. “EDGING” is far from the band’s classics, and it takes a couple listens to process the song in its entirety without attempting to scour for some form of nostalgia factor. It’s not exactly experimental, and it’s not an attempt at a radio hit– it’s a true display of old friends taking a light stroll down memory lane. With Barker’s swingy drumming and DeLonge’s characteristic vocal twangs in the first verse, the song opens slightly more pop than it does punk. I ain’t that cool, a little fucked in the head They’ll be hanging me quick when I’m back from the dead Get the rope, get the rope Get the rope, get the rope ![]()
