The Profile

American rock band formed in Poway, California, known for bringing pop-punk to a mainstream audience with late-1990s/early-2000s hits and for an on-and-off history of splits, reunions and lineup changes.

Core members publicly associated with the band include Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker; breakthrough album: Enema of the State (1999).

DeBaser's reviews of blink-182 mix nostalgia and critique. Reviewers discuss classic albums (Enema of the State, Take Off Your Pants and Jacket, blink-182), lineup changes, side projects and the reunited band's recent output. Reactions range from affectionate to disappointed; technical praise often goes to Travis Barker's drumming.
