Blink-182 kicked off its reunion with original member Tom DeLonge by releasing its first new song in a decade.
The band, now comprised of bassist and lead vocalist Mark Hoppus, guitarist and lead vocalist DeLonge and drummer Travis Barker, released its new single titled edging on Friday, along with an accompanying video.
The energetic clip shows the three pop-punk rockers letting loose at a carnival while surrounded by people in rabbit costumes, before things get surprisingly gory.
They're back! Blink-182 released Edging, its first new song in a decade with returning original member Tom DeLonge, on Friday. A video was also released to accompany the single
After an opening drum fill from Travis, DeLonge takes the spotlight to highlight his return to the fold.
'I ain't that cool, a little f***ed in the head / They'll be hangin' me quick when I'm back from the dead,' he sings, with the 'back from the dead' line possibly referencing his returning to the band after a seven-year absence.
He adds that he is a 'punk rock kid,' going back to the band's roots.
The video for the song — which was co-written by all three members — opens in a striped circus tent, with people in rabbit costumes sitting in a circle surrounding the rockers.

Then, the band members are all seen looking bored out of their minds as they ride on a ferris wheel, with each being joined by someone in a white rabbit suit.
DeLonge suddenly turns violent as he throws a knife at one of the people in rabbit suits, only for them to jump to the side while Travis catches the knife in his teeth.
Seconds later, the returned rocker is kissing the bunny next to him on the ferris wheel.
