Blink-182 Writing New Music

05/04/2009
. (Reuters) Blink-182 has already written a number of new songs, frontman Mark Hoppus says, but don't expect the band to deliver a follow-up to 2003's self-titled smash before its big reunion tour this summer.

"We started writing a few months ago and got well into the writing process, but now we've kind of put the recording of the next album on hold and are doing rehearsals for the upcoming tour," Hoppus told Billboard.com.

After a four-year hiatus, Hoppus, Travis Barker and Tom DeLonge appeared onstage at the 2009 Grammy Awards and announced their reformation as Blink-182. - more plus info on new Motion City Soundtrack
