Tom Delonge , Mark Hoppus , Travis Barker More commonly known as punk/rock band Blink 182. THe band formed in 1993, since then their popularity has done nothing but increase after the release of their first album Chesire Cat . In 1996 they signed a deal with Cargo Music and MCA Records. Their first release under this deal was the album Dude Ranch by the end of 1998, they had established themselves as one of the best punk-pop bands ever. After Christmas 1998, the band began work on the multi-platinum album Enema Of The State , including the hit singles 'What's my age again' 'All the small things' and 'Adam's song'. The album totally shattered the record set by Dude Ranch and now is selling over 7 million worldwide (Now thatz a shit loada copies.) The next album (The Enema Strikes Back) was a compilation of classic blink songs recorded live on a summer tour and also includes previously unreleased tracks and funny one liners. That album didn't do aswell as it's former but still selling over 1 million Then there's the ever-expanding blink-182 mercantile empire, which stretches from pole to pole, from sea to shining sea. First there's their own blink182.com website for fans and curious onlookers. Travis's "Famous Stars and Straps" is a successful retailer and website for clothes, belts and accessories. Mark and Tom's "Loserkids.com" is an equally vibrant website for clothes, skates, music, movies. But despite these ancillary success stories, Mark, Tom and Travis never lose sight of what's most important for blink-182 and their worldwide legions of fans: music and tasteless comedy at every opportunity.
