So Boomer from blink-182's iconic First Date video apparently has an older brother… and he's just made his first appearance in Angels & Airwaves' new video for Losing My Mind.

This surprise sibling, whose name is Disco, is the star of AVA's latest Tom DeLonge-directed clip, which also features "TikTok dance sensation Rampage", and sees the pair getting up to all sorts in Las Vegas.

Of the single itself, Tom explains (with a big ol' heap of sarcasm): "I wanted to write a song about a totally insane idea that would never happen, like, what if our own country was being torn apart by racists, a pandemic, and domestic terrorism, but all at the same time… you know, just normal made up shit that would never happen."
