Are the boys from Blink 182 back together and recording a new album?
Metro UK reports Tom DeLonge, who announced he was quitting the band in January told Billboard that he is "totally willing and interested" to reunite with his band mates Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus.
"People ask me every single day, 'Go back, go back, go back'," DeLonge told Billboard. "'And I tell people I haven't forgotten anything and I'm grateful for that band and for those guys in my life. And I think about that band every single day of my life - sometimes multiple times a day. I love those guys and I love the band."
On the same day the news broke out, Hoppus hinted a possible reunion when he responded to Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz eager question.
Wentz tweeted, "New music soon??? What jam should I play?" Hoppus then replied that he was "in the studio."

Blink 182 fans are wondering if there really is a reunion going on since DeLonge's band exit was complicated. According to a band statement, the former member will be replaced by Alkaline Trio's Matt Skiba on their upcoming gigs.
Although DeLonge previously denied leaving the band on Instagram saying he "never quit the band," Hoppus and Barker were pretty sure that "Tom. Is. Out." The remaining members added DeLonge's exit was confirmed through an email from his manager.
"We just need time apart because we all want different things at this time," DeLonge explained. "Those guys want to play the music and tour all the time, but I'm involved in some very big s--t and some very important stuff."
A Blink 182 reunion may be true or not, DeLonge admitted he still wants to "play music and tour" again. "In the future. Let's play together and figure it out or whatever."
