BLINK-182

Blink-182 ended a five-year split and launched their reunion tour by showing their immunity to maturation: The gig was "a tongue-in-(butt)-cheek time warp back to junior high, starring a band that has long served as the itching powder in pop rock's jock strap," wrote SPIN's Jason Bracelin. The band was rough around the edges, "but it was hard not to join in on the laughter regardless," especially cracks like this: "Chuck Norris masturbates to us," joked singer/guitarist Tom DeLonge.
