blink-182 is the eponymously-titled 5th studio album by blink-182. It was produced by Jerry Finn and released November 18, 2003 through Geffen Records. Recorded throughout 2003, blink-182 marks a departure from the band's earlier work, infusing experimental elements into their usual pop punk sound, inspired by lifestyle changes (the band members all became fathers before the album was released) and side projects.
The album was a commercial success in the United States, bolstered by lead singles "Feeling This" and "I Miss You". Despite some mixed criticism from fans regarding the band's new musical elements, blink-182 earned largely favorable reviews from music critics and has been certified Platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). "Down" and "Always" were released as the 3rd and 4th singles from the album, respectively. It was the band's final album before going on hiatus in 2005 and eventually reuniting in 2009, as well as the final blink-182 record produced by longtime producer Jerry Finn, who died in 2008.
