Blink-182 announced Tuesday they are going on an "indefinite hiatus," possibly bringing to a close their decade-plus career of catchy but angsty radio hits, goofball videos, stand-up comedy stage banter and millions of albums sold worldwide.

"For over a decade, Blink-182 has toured, recorded and promoted nonstop all while trying to balance relationships with family and friends. To that end, the band has decided to go on an indefinite hiatus to spend some time enjoying the fruits of their labors with loved ones," a statement from the band's management read. "While there is no set plan for the band to begin working together again, no one knows what tomorrow may bring."

yeah, geoff, your opinion is totally correct. this is, because "true goth/punk music" is for grown-ups.

that's a totally different perspective. we're talking about their audience.
Moreover, the Goth- and Punk-Scene is crammed with faceless and angst-ridden teenies. Sorry mate, but you lose badly. Again.

90% of what ppl call punk scene is not punk or goth...just a bunch of ppl trying to be something they are not...more like 97% actually...and the music these dipshits listen to have nothing to do with punk especially...

Exactly what I said you fucking moron. :icon19:
And comparing nsync with green day is a little far-fetched, isn't it?

green day is boring btw - so is punk, esp. blink 182, in general.

I always wondered who was the first idiot to call punk 'music'. Christ on a stick. Musically as impressive as a 10-year-old bashing a synth.
