Blink-182 are back for mall punk’s classic rock phase, and apparently so is the buying public. As Billboard reports, the band’s new album California debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart, ending the nine-week reign of Drake’s Views and earning them their second #1 after 2001’s Take Off Your Pants And Jacket. California has moved 186,000 equivalent album units so far, 172,000 of which were traditional album sales, making this the third-largest sales week for a rock album in 2016.
