The Used have shared four more songs from their new album “Heartwork”
Travis Barker's autobiography, Can I Say: Living Large, Cheating Death, and Drums, Drums, Drums, comes out on June 24 via William Morrow, according to Amazon.
In this blunt, driving memoir, Barker ruminates on rock stardom, fatherhood, death, loss, and redemption, sharing stories shaped by decades’ worth of hard-earned insights. His pulsating memoir is as energetic as his acclaimed beats. It brings to a close the first chapters of a well-lived life, inspiring readers to follow the rhythms of their own hearts and find meaning in their lives.
According an Instagram post, blink 182 drummer Travis Barker is writing a book which is slated to come out next year.
I got a memoir I've been workin hard on and it's turning out awesome . Its been very therapeutic for me to get this all out and into a book and hopefully it can inspire a grip of people and help many as well. It's comin out Fall 2014 and I can't wait to share it with ya'll

In an interview with AP.net; Mark Hoppus reveals the band are shopping for labels and plan on recording next year
I know a lot of fans are going to be curious about the next record. How far along are you on that whole process right now?
We’re just talking to labels now. We met with a bunch of labels while we were out on tour. We’re getting offers from labels right now. We’re figuring out what the recording schedule is going to be and going from there.
I think the plan is to start recording sometime early next year, right?
Yeah, after the holidays I plan on flying out and getting into the studio with Tom and Travis and starting to hash out the next record. I’m excited.
Are you still planning on writing most of it when you’re all in the same physical location?
I hope so. I think that’s when we do our best work. When we did the Untitled album, we had some riffs and some parts here and there. Tom had some skeletons of songs, I had some skeletons of songs, but basically we wrote all together and it was really a great creative process. I want to do more of that rather than everybody going into their own corner, working on stuff, and then coming back.
Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman recently did an interview with The Gunz Show where he discussed the logistics of Blink-182 playing the festival.
Everyone always says, ‘Bring Blink!’ And just as a sheer economics project, think about what Blink would cost and what you’d pay for a Blink ticket compared to a Warped Tour ticket. It doesn’t work economically for Blink. They’re always welcome to come back. The door is never shut for anyone, but they’ve just gotta figure out how to come be part of it and still make it work for that $40 ticket at the door.
The All American Rejects new single, “Beekeeper’s Daughter,” is set to appear in an upcoming episode of CW’s 90210. The episode will premiere on January 31st, which is also the same day that the song will be available for digital download. “Beekeeper’s Daughter comes from the band’s highly anticipated album, Kids in the Street, due out March 27th.
The Rejects are currently headlining the “Shaking Off the Rust Tour,” and just announced that they will be supporting Blink-182 on their upcoming European summer tour. We’re stoked to be hitting the road once again with Blink-182, said guitarist Mike Kennerty, not a bad way to kick off our summer, eh? The band will also headline a Spring tour starting March 30th. Tour dates announced soon.
The band have also launched a new site at Burnbothends.tumblr.com for fans to submit their own 'Kids in the Street' inspired stories. “Submit your favorite moments in life. Paintings, photos, videos, interpretive dances, whatever expresses who you are,” encourages the band.
