blink-182 brings three new tracks this week to Guitar Hero 5 and Band Hero. The trio, formed in 1992, achieved critical acclaim when their breakthrough album, Enema of the State, was released in 1999. With lyrics ranging from hilarious to heartfelt and their catchy, energetic and melodic sounds, blink-182 paved the way for the era of pop-punk music.

The blink -182 Track Pack features “All The Small Things” and “Adam’s Song” from their 1999 album Enema of the State, and “First Date,” from the band’s 2001 album, Take Off Your Pants & Jacket.

The blink -182 Track Pack will be available via Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 440 Microsoft Points, on the PlayStation Store for $5.49 and the Wii Shop Channel for 550 Wii Points. The three songs will also be available as single downloads for Xbox 360 for 160 Microsoft Points, PlayStation 3 for $1.99 and Wii for 200 Wii Points each.

… the following immortal words were spoken by Travis Barker at the Grammys…

“We used to play music together, and we decided we’re going to play music together again”

Those uttered words made my year, if not decade.

A big thanks to Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker & Tom Delonge for getting it back together ‘for the kids’, to the blink fans who have been super nice to us here on blink182.co.uk (best fans EVER) and a big shout out to our South American friends and HNDSM*RNDSM – the guys behind the Blinkumentary.

Can’t wait for Summer 2010 (European Tour) and let’s just see what happens single and album wise. Should be ace.

Let’s continue supporting the band in every way we can – legal downloads, buying merchandise, seeing them at gigs – tweeting the funk out of them on Twitter. Just, keep the fuck away from piracy.

Lastly, but not least – thanks to the peeps who help me out with this site & the Twitter account; Katrina (Ink182.com) & WTFItsCiaran.

As for this site – lots in the pipe line, stay frosty.

From the band, via HMNIM;

“After much thought and consideration, Blink-182 has rescheduled their next two shows in order for Travis Barker to mourn the loss of his dear friend Adam Goldstein. Blink-182 will now play St. Louis, MO on Sept 29 and Cleveland, OH on Sept 30. To accommodate the change, shows in Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA have also moved to October 6th and 7th respectively.
