Mark Hoppus ready for new Motion City soundtrack record

Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus is busy, but he’s got his schedule in order. The bassist confirms that while the band has started writing new music, they stopped in order to begin rehearsing for their forthcoming summer tour. Hoppus is also keeping his time filled by producing Motion City Soundtrack’s next album.

He tells Billboard.com that after producing their Commit This To Memory album, he’s happy to reunite with the band. He says, “I think that Memory is a really great record. For me, it encapsulates what Motion City Soundtrack is and can do. Now they want to make a record that’s along those lines but pushes it even further.” He adds that he isn’t ruling out the idea of Motion City joining Blink on their summer run.
