The band’s new album ‘California’ will be released on July 1 and is being trailed by new song ‘Bored To Death’, which premiered last month (May). The single marks the first new recording by the band since 2011’s ‘Neighbourhoods’.

‘Bored To Death’ sees Alkaline Trio man Matt Skiba take Tom DeLonge’s place on record for the first time, with Skiba having previously stepped into the fold for live shows.

The band have also confirmed a run of North American tour dates in support of their new album. Check out Blink-182’s upcoming live dates in full here.
