Blink-182 fans who don’t mind the band continuing on with the wrong Darrin Stevens, so to speak, will be overjoyed with the news the band are releasing a deluxe version of their most recent album California on May 12, with ten bonus tracks recorded during the sessions.

The most recent song to be released from the package is ‘6/8’, which the band describe as “the strangest song Blink have ever recorded”; quite a claim for a band who have a song containing just swear words.

Check it out below. It’s a dark, swaying number which sounds like the mid-point between Blink-182’s 2003 self-titled album and latter day Alkaline Trio. Enjoy!
