Written by bassist Mark Hoppus about a fictional breakup, 'Dammit' examines the awkward sting of watching an ex move on whilst you're still stuck in place. The chorus refrain ('Well, I guess this is growing up') turns the phrase into a rueful punchline, the narrator cycling through small humiliations and the realisation that nobody's coming to fix it. Hoppus sketches the scene in quick, conversational strokes: the friend who understands, the movie-preview wave, the charade that won't last. Released in September 1997 as the second single from 'Dude Ranch', the track became one of the California trio's early calling cards, later appearing on their 2005 greatest-hits compilation. The song's plain-spoken melancholy and three-chord momentum helped establish the template blink-182 would refine across the next decade, adolescent frustration delivered without self-pity or grand gesture.

Faith No More will join blink-182 atop Rock for People’s 2027 bill, alongside Architects, Billy Talent, Killswitch Engage and more.

Mark Hoppus says he recorded vocals for a Linkin Park song that has yet to be released.

Across ‘Untitled’, ‘Neighborhoods’ and ‘ONE MORE TIME…’, blink-182 repeatedly tested what remains when their hooks, humour and three-way chemistry are pushed into unfamiliar shapes.

blink-182’s 25th-anniversary celebration for ‘Take Off Your Pants And Jacket’ now includes a free-to-play Pac-Man game, merchandise and an animated appearance.

Tom Ogden found an early pull towards drumming in Blink-182 and Nirvana. Lee Wilson found his at King’s Lynn gigs, through Vanilla Pod and a Less Than Jake bass line.

Planned as a June record for friends, drives and crowded shows, Knuckle Puck’s third album arrived in September 2020 with its optimism intact but its intended setting gone.
