Blink 182 Slams Tom Delonge For Being ‘Disrespectful And Ungrateful!’ Is The Former Front Man Already Preparing For A Solo Album?

Tags

Travis Barker and Mark Hoppus from Blink 182 slammed Tom Delonge for not having "the b*lls" to quit the band himself.

The 90s punk rock band previously announced Delonge's ousting from the group last Jan. 26 but the 39-year-old musician denied it on social media.

"To all the fans, I never quit the band," he reportedly defended himself.

In a candid interview with Rolling Stone, however, the remaining members called out the band's former vocalist for not calling them personally to tell them that he didn't want "to record or do anything Blink-related" and had his manager call them instead.

"It's hard to cover for someone who's disrespectful and ungrateful," the drummer also shared.

The two remaining members also revealed that they only found out that Delonge wanted to quit the band "indefinitely" through an email from his manager.

"Tom. Is. Out," the email reportedly said.

Meanwhile, with recent developments, it looks like Blink 182 will continue slamming Tom Delonge.

According to Sunday Morning Herald, the former frontman released two snippets of a song that he supposedly had been working on just some weeks after opting out of the punk band.

Released via Delonge's personal Facebook page, one track reportedly sounds like a Blink 182 song while another has more of a personal feel for the songwriter. It was captioned with the hasthags #SongsWithoutAHome and #March1st.

Could this be an album release of some kind? SMH speculated that it could also be a promise to fans that he would still make music even after leaving Blink 182.

Meanwhile, Delonge will be replaced by Matt Skiba of Alkaline Trio for the Musink Tattoo Convention and Music Festival which will be held on March 22 at Orange County. According to NME, Hoppus and Baker are still unsure about who will replace their ex-vocalist for a more permanent position.

What do you think of Blink 182 slamming Tom Delonge for his "ungrateful" attitude?
