California was Blink 182‘s first album since guitarist Tom DeLonge quit the band and was replaced by former Alkaline Trio singer and vocalist Matt Skiba.
Meanwhile, Frank Turner has revealed that he has “a mountain of new material” for his next album but may be writing even more in the wake of Donald Trump’s shock election win.
