Blink-182 recently shared "Blame It on My Youth," the first single from their forthcoming new album. The mid-tempo pop song appeared to face plenty of backlash from the band's fans, and it almost feels like they're directly addressing those people on their new song "Generational Divide."
Clocking in at less than a minute long, the track is a quick blast of pop-punk that still leaves plenty of room for Travis Barker's busy drum work. "Is it better now?" Mark Hoppus repeats before Matt Skiba cuts through with some throat-shredding melodies.
The song has arrived alongside a new video wherein the members of Blink rock out in front of a series of tiny punk fliers. If you look around, you'll find everyone from GG Allin and GBH to Fugazi and Naked Raygun.
These guys are punk as hell now! Need more proof? This is the official single art:
