A real punk is punk on the inside.

The fact that music can induce Goosebumps draw a tear inspire and connect is one of my favorite parts of being human

Then when we did the untitled record, we just didn't feel like putting joke stuff on it, so we didn't. It wasn't really a deliberation or a real introspective thing like, Are we going to joke on this one, are we not going to joke on this one? We just didn't feel like it on the untitled one, so we didn't.

It's so easy to put music out that it's difficult to sift through stuff that I don't like to find stuff I do like.

The thing you realize as you get older is that parents don't know what the Hell they're doing and neither will you when you get to be a parent

There was a great push and pull of what Blink-128 should sound like all the time. Travis Barker comes from a different background than I do, and Tom DeLonge comes from a different background than either of us in terms of what we write and what we think a song should be. Tom pushes me out of a box that I put myself in.

Music is in every country and every culture around the world. It's universal.

I really enjoy helping a band form their sounds and ideas from initial spark to completed album. Being a producer is different in that, at the end of the day, it is not my art. It's THEIR art, THEIR ideas, THEIR message.
Mark Hoppus
I firmly believe artists should be paid for what they create.

Now everything is available at the push of a button, and that thrill of the search is gone. With vinyl albums and special edition releases, I feel like that's coming back.

Make yourself look really stupid so you don't feel bad doing something a little stupid.
Mark Hoppus
All I can hope to do is instill great morality in my son and trust him along the way. The music he listens to or how he chooses to wear his hair doesn't define his moral compass, and if he wants to listen to country music and wear a cowboy hat too, that's fine.

Life's too short to sit through songs you don't love.

Take it from me because I learned the hard way: circumcisions are best left to professionals.

California to me as a concept or as an idea always seems like endless optimism and endless opportunity - when people think of California they think of palm trees and blue skies and gorgeous sunsets and beaches and everything else.

Antarctica is otherworldly, like nothing I've ever seen before. Stark, cold, beautiful desolation.

'Built This Pool' was an idea that I had for a song starting several years ago, and as we were in between takes of recording something, I was actually holding a guitar at the time, and I played this silly thing, and sang the lyrics to 'Built This Pool' kinda in the background.
