Serving as a side project for
Blink 182 members
Travis Barker and
Thomas DeLonge,
Boxcar Racer is a return to a more traditional punk sound. Adding guitarist David Kennedy and bassist Anthony Celestino, the group came together between
Blink 182 sessions and recorded their eponymous album in the winter of 2001/2002. Cutting much of the pop from their usual sound and showing diverse influences like
the Replacements and
D.R.I., the band used it as a showcase for the material they wrote that wasn't
Blink-friendly. ~ Bradley Torreano
