BLINK-182 California (BMG) California is the upcoming 7th studio album by American rock band Blink-182 and is the first album by the band to feature vocalist/guitarist Matt Skiba, who replaced former member Tom DeLonge. After touring and releasing the band’s sixth album Neighborhoods (2011), it became increasingly difficult for the trio to record new material, due to DeLonge’s various projects like Angels and Airwaves. After disagreements, the remaining members of the group—vocalist/bassist Mark Hoppus and drummer Travis Barker— broke away from DeLonge and recruited Skiba, from rock band Alkaline Trio.
