Travis Barker reckons so!

While surfing the Twitterverse over Christmas we heard some particularly drool-inducing news from Mr Travis Barker. Not only is he back with Blink182 (and bringing them to the UK this year), but his most recent announcement is that The Transplants, the lo-fi rap punk outfit he formed in 1999 with Rancid's Tim Armstrong, are to release new music in 2010! Don't believe us? Check the proof below!



The band has never played the UK before. Judging by this video it would be one hell of a party! Perhaps we'll get a double dose of TB this summer?

I'm MusicRadar's eCommerce Editor. In addition to testing the latest music gear, with a particular focus on electronic drums, it's my job to manage the 300+ buyer's guides on MusicRadar and help musicians find the right gear for them at the best prices. I dabble with guitar, but my main instrument is the drums, which I have been playing for 24 years. I've been a part of the music gear industry for 20 years, including 7 years as Editor of the UK's best-selling drum magazine Rhythm, and 5 years as a freelance music writer, during which time I worked with the world's biggest instrument brands including Roland, Boss, Laney and Natal.
