Blink-182’s Tom Delonge recently recorded an extensive interview with BBC Radio One to discuss the band, their upcoming album Neighborhoods, and more.

During the interview, Tom had the following to say about the band’s lengthy indefinite hiatus and why it had to happen:

“The band got so big that the machine running the band took over. We were burnt out, we needed a break, but the machine won’t let you do that. The band had stopped communicating because the machine was so big.”

Later in the interview, the conversation turned to Neighborhoods and Delonge had this to add:

“The album’s amazing. If you like our music, it’s our best work by far. It’s very modern, very relevant to rock music today, but we made sure to throw a couple of songs in there that sound like they’re from the mid 90s. It’s gigantic, it’s made for big place.”
