Simon CarlineAfter hinting at its existence a few times over the last few months, Blink-182 have officially confirmed the release of ‘California DLX’, the deluxe version of last year’s ‘California’. The album was the first output since Matt Skiba joined up with Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker, replacing founding member, Tom DeLonge.
With fresh input, it appears the trio are more active than ever as, yesterday, a tweet emerged from the band’s official Twitter account delivering the news many of their fans had been waiting for.
