Blink 182 frontman unveils new band

While Blink 182 guitarist / vocalist Tom DeLonge was putting the finishing touches to Angels And Airwaves new album, Love, which was released on February 14, Blink 182 bassist / vocalist Mark Hoppus was hard at work on a side project of his own.

Hoppus' new band are apparently called Trousdale Press, and their forthcoming debut album is set to completed in the next couple of weeks.

And, what's more, the as-yet-untitled album will feature a collaboration with All Time Low's Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat.

"We worked together on a song for their last record [2009's Nothing Personal] that they did not end up using," Hoppus told MTV. "It's a great song, and has just been laying dormant for the past year. While Blink 182 has been on down time before the European tour and album recording, I've been in the studio with a bunch of friends working on a project called Trousdale Press. Alex and Jack Barakat came down yesterday and we finished up that track. It's a rocker."

"We're hoping to have the album tracking finished in the next two weeks," he added. "I'm sure there will be a full press thing that you'll be sent in the near future, but that's the basics of the thing."

Blink need to stop fucking around and take the reunion seriously. They've been back for like what a year now? and they havnt done too much tbh.

This better not do anything bad with All Time Low which are my favourite band, but I am sure it'll be great

Eugh. Bring back +44, Please. All Time Low suck, i'm sorry, but they do. Alex is a fag and they're too 'pop' like.

Ugh, You're kidding me? Blink 182 were my favourite band when I was younger, and I was really excited when they got back together. Butnow Marks working with Alex Gascrap? Great TT_TT

blink just got less cool. again. maybe they should stop jerking their fans around and actually put something new out, as opposed to working with crappy second rate copies of themselves.

why is everyone getting pissed off with blink182 and atl the are two amazing bands and there side projects are amazing i bet and blink are proaplly busy coz of tom in angles and airways and coz they all have a family so that's proaplly why they haven't done alot for there reunion

I don't think they're in a band together, they collaborated on one song. MTV had the original quote from Mark Hoppus about them being in the studio and their article said it wasn't relatd to his side project.

Also what's with everyone saying All Time Low are shit? If you're going to say that about anyone featured in Kerrang! What about Cobra Starship or Hey Monday? They deserve it.

ive got nothing against all time low in particular, other than they were crap live, but there are way too many bands like them out there, they're all ripping off bands like blink...plus, why announce you're reuntied if you don't have any plans to relaese anything as a band? i mean, they've never released 'up all night', and that was due fore release a year ago...im not a die hard fan, but i don't wanna see blink go on some crappy 'cash cow' tour and get people's hopes up about their new album, then go and make some watered down version of themselves witht he likes of all time blow :/

First, when +44 came out, everyone wanted Blink 182 to come back, now Blink 182 have returned, and everyone wants +44 to come back.

This is exacty why no one takes any of you seriously, inbred youths o' today.

This is my Opinion, so no one has to agree, anyway, I know Blink182 are taking forevaa, but come on.... It takes Alot to please everyone and come up with a whole new album and still have time with othaa stuff in there Lives, so Just give em' a break please! plus what has ATL done?, there a Great band... And there are alot of bands like them out there, but it doesn't mean there just copying dem' or tryna be like them, so ya kno give them a break, and just be grateful 4 the mewsic they have made. P.s they both totally Rock!:) x

what the fuck im shure this wont be terrible but mark has lowered himself to working with scene music more than he needs to
ATL sucks ass nuggets and
BLINK needs to get their shit together and release up all night already
i know toms out touring with AVA and thats why their not working on their new album
trousdale press is probably something for mark to pass time since travis is busy with his solo album
but seriously blink needs to get in the studio asap and release something soon because everyone who is a true fan has been let down so far and thats not what blinks about there all for the fans but right now this reunion was all a bl=ullshit excuse to play there favorite songs together on tour
