More about: Blink 182

Blink 182 have released a new video for ‘Home Is Such A Lonely Place’ just as their about the hit the UK for a major tour.

The original video, released last month, showed the trio of Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker and Matt Skiba getting ready to head out on tour and leaving their families behind. The new version focuses on singer-guitarist Skiba as he chills out at home with friends and family, plays with his dog and performs with the band.

Speaking of the track, Blink 182 said: “The video for ‘Home Is Such A Lonely Place’ was probably the easiest we’ve ever filmed. All we had to do was be ourselves at home with our family and friends as we prepared to leave for tour.

“Consequently, it's also our most personal and honest videos, and one of our favourites.”

The band released an expanded version of the California album earlier this year. Featuring 28 tracks, 11 of the songs had been previously unreleased.

“We just felt like making more music so we jumped back in the studio,” said drummer Travis Barker of the additional material.

“It started out as three or four songs – but we ended up with 12 that we were all excited about.”
