Blink-182 have reissued Take Off Your Pants and Jacket and added six bonus tracks.
After teasing plans to mark the 25th anniversary of their 2001 LP, the pop punk legends have bundled Time To Break Up, Mother’s Day, What Went Wrong, F*** A Dog, Don’t Tell Me It’s Over, and When You F***** Grandpa onto one album – now available on streaming services and vinyl for the first time alongside the original 13 tracks.
The vinyl will ship from October 30, and is available to pre-order now via blink182.com.
The product listing read: “The 25-Year Anniversary Edition of Take Off Your Pants and Jacket brings together the complete album, including all six vault tracks on vinyl. Originally the first pop-punk album to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200, this special edition features updated artwork, 180g discs, randomized etchings of the album’s iconic symbols, and exclusive additions from the band celebrating the record’s lasting impact.”
Previously, the tracks have been released individually on alternate physical releases in 2001.
The trio – Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge and Travis Barker – posted the album’s artwork on social media, prompting speculation that a full‑scale tribute to the era was on the way.
The band shared a series of posts featuring the album’s iconic colour‑coded symbols, along with snippets of behind‑the‑scenes footage from the era.
They also shared a link to their mailing list to sign up to hear more.
The record, which became one of the defining pop‑punk releases of the early 2000s, marked a pivotal moment in the band’s career, as they transitioned to mainstream stardom.
With hits such as The Rock Show, First Date and Stay Together for the Kids, the record remains a fan favourite and a cornerstone of the genre.
What’s more, Blink were just unveiled as headliners for next year’s Rock Am Ring and Rock Im Park.
The chart-topping rock band reunited after Mark was diagnosed with cancer in 2021, and the group now cherish the time they spend together.
He previously told The Independent: “Everybody really respects and cherishes one another.
“We all love Blink and what we built, and we don’t want to mess that up anymore. We have a common goal.”
Mark’s health troubles led to him mending his relationship with Tom.
Discussing his memoir Fahrenheit-18, he explained: “I didn’t want to portray Tom as a d*** or a demon or anything, even though I felt like it at the time.
“Looking back, I tried to write everything really even-handed and try to put myself in Tom’s shoes to understand better where he was coming from.”
