Blink-182, an American trio, known for their catchy, simple melodies and lyrical toilet humor, was originally formed in 1992 in Poway, San Diego, California by Tom DeLonge and Scott Raynor and recruited Mark Hoppus. In 1998, midway through a U.S. tour, Raynor left the band for undisclosed reasons. With him leaving, Travis Barker joined the band. DeLonge left the group in early 2005, with the band presenting it as an “indefinite hiatus”, but DeLonge went on to play alternative rock in a band called Angels & Airwaves, while Hoppus and Barker continued in a similar genre with their band +44.
