Always182.com is a website dedicated to the iconic punk rock band Blink-182 and its members. The history of Always182 began in 2006 on old MSN groups, where a group of passionate Blink-182 fans came together to create an online community. From its humble beginnings, Always182 has become an invaluable resource for Blink-182 fans, offering news, downloadable content, and audio and video bootlegs.
During its early years, Always182 stood out for its active participation in the Blink-182 fan community. Members shared news, photos, videos, and memories related to the band, creating a vibrant atmosphere of mutual support. In 2010, the site evolved into a forum, gaining tremendous popularity and solidifying itself as a meeting point for Blink-182 enthusiasts.
The journey of Always182 has not been without challenges. On two occasions, the site ceased activity, “mourning” the departure of Tom DeLonge from the band. The first hiatus occurred in 2005 when Tom left Blink-182 for the first time, significantly impacting the fan community. During this period, Always182 remained inactive, reflecting the feelings of loss and respect towards one of the band’s founding members.
The second interruption came in 2015 when Tom left the band again to focus on other projects. Once again, Always182 took a break, observing a moment of silence as a tribute to Tom DeLonge’s history and contributions to Blink-182.
Despite these challenges, Always182 has shown remarkable resilience. Each time the band reunited or released new music, the site sprung back to life, reigniting fan enthusiasm and updating followers with the latest Blink-182 news and releases.
In 2024, Always182 took a significant step by beginning to sell merchandise, many years after its inception. Today, Always182’s mission is to bring those coveted items that every fan desires closer to its audience. We foster a highly active community on social media platforms like Instagram, where we regularly upload Spanish-subtitled videos for the Spanish-speaking community. Always182 was the first to consistently subtitle interviews and provide valuable content to Latin American fans.
Always182.com is not just a website but a testament to Blink-182’s lasting impact and the global community of fans who continue to support and celebrate their music. With a renewed mission and a focus on community, Always182 remains a dedicated platform celebrating Blink-182’s music and legacy, keeping the band’s passion and memory alive for fans worldwide.
