Blink-182 have fans losing their minds after dropping a cryptic teaser that points towards something special for the 25th anniversary of Take Off Your Pants and Jacket.
Earlier this week, the pop-punk icons shared the album's unmistakable cover artwork across social media, alongside a link encouraging fans to sign up for more information. No details have been revealed yet, but with the album turning 25 on June 12.
Naturally, fans have already started speculating. Theories range from a deluxe reissue packed with unreleased material to a full-blown anniversary tour celebrating one of the defining pop-punk albums of the early 2000s.
Released on June 12, 2001, Take Off Your Pants and Jacket became a monster success for the band. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling more than 350,000 copies in its first week and becoming the first punk-rock album ever to top the chart straight out of the gate.
The album also delivered some of Blink's biggest hits, including "The Rock Show", "First Date" and "Stay Together for the Kids". While the first two doubled down on the band's trademark humour and youthful chaos, "Stay Together for the Kids" showed a more serious side, tackling divorce and family breakdown with some of the most personal songwriting of their career.
At the time, Blink-182 were operating at the peak of their powers. Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker spent the next two years touring the album around the world, including the legendary Pop Disaster Tour alongside Green Day.
The teaser continues a trend of Blink revisiting key moments from their catalogue. In 2019, the band celebrated the 20th anniversary of Enema of the State by performing the album in full, while Tom DeLonge's return to the lineup has reignited interest in the group's classic era.
The band have hardly been taking it easy either. Their 2023 reunion album One More Time... debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, giving Blink their first chart-topper since Take Off Your Pants and Jacket more than two decades earlier.
Whatever they've got planned, we won't have to wait long to find out. June 12 is just around the corner, and Blink-182 appear ready to celebrate one of the most beloved records in pop-punk history.
