Blink-182 turned to veteran punk rock producer Jerry Finn, who had previously worked on Green Day’s breakthrough album, ‘Dookie’ (1994), to record their third album ‘Enema Of The State’. Enema was the band’s first album to feature drummer Travis Barker, who replaced original drummer Scott Raynor. Lyrically, the album is inspired by adolescent frustration and relationships. Guitarist Tom DeLonge and bassist Mark Hoppus primarily culled stories from friends and autobiographical situations to craft summery tracks revolving around breakups, suburban parties and maturity, as well as more offbeat subject matter such as UFO conspiracy theories. ‘Enema of the State’ had an extensive impact on contemporary pop punk, reinventing it for a new generation and spawning countless tributes and acolytes.
