    Blink 182 set aside the bullshit and hit a new peak with One More Time...

  2. 8.0 |   Rolling Stone

    As always, Blink-182 are at their best when they are channeling punk-rock energy and wailing tongue-in-cheek couplets against choppy guitars and Barker’s driving rhythms. The action-packed “Turpentine” hits the mark and uses the band’s immature humor to unpack One More Time’s darker themes

    This is an excellent album in its own right, but ONE MORE TIME… also points to an even more exciting future for blink-182. What a time to be alive

  4. 8.0 |   Dork

    Sees the band trying to force joy and optimism out of misery. It’s what made the band so relatable the first time around, and it feels viciously important now

  5. 8.0 |   All Music

    One More Time... plays like a love letter, both to fans who stuck with them and to each other - a letter that doesn't so much ask for forgiveness as offer it willingly, passionately, and without conditions

  7. 8.0 |   Punk News

    A fun listen, an emotional reunion of brothers with a strange history of falling-out, and a huge shot of nostalgia for any die-hard Blink 182 fan

  8. 7.0 |   Clash

    Blink remain true to form, even throwing in a few sub-1 minute swearword screamers, but with the band back together and continuing to go through life, it seems their form is grounded in something firmer

  10. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    Their shtick wears thin at times but the reunited band’s ninth LP has genuine moments of introspection about friendship and mortality

  11. 6.0 |   NME

    After brushes with mortality and a protracted absence for Tom DeLonge, the reunited trio sound simply happy enough just to be rocking out again

  12. 6.0 |   Slant Magazine

    For every triumphant return to form, there’s an uninspired dud
