More than 25 years after its original release, blink-182’s ‘Take Off Your Pants and Jacket’ has returned to the UK charts, reaching its highest position in over two decades.

The band’s fourth studio album has returned to the Official Rock & Metal Albums Chart at No. 4, marking its highest position since August 2001.

The achievement follows the release of the album’s 25th anniversary deluxe edition, which brings together all 13 original tracks alongside six bonus tracks that were previously spread across three different versions of the 2001 release.

The expanded edition arrived on streaming platforms on June 12, 2026, making all six bonus tracks available to stream for the first time. A physical re-release followed on October 30, with CD and double-vinyl editions featuring updated artwork.

The six bonus tracks include ‘Time to Break Up’, ‘Mother’s Day’, ‘What Went Wrong’, ‘F*ck a Dog’, ‘Don’t Tell Me It’s Over’ and ‘When You F*cked Grandpa’.

Originally released in June 2001, ‘Take Off Your Pants and Jacket’ became the first punk rock album to debut at No. 1 on the US Billboard 200. It also reached No. 1 on the UK’s Official Rock & Metal Albums Chart.

Featuring fan favourites ‘First Date’, ‘The Rock Show’ and ‘Stay Together for the Kids’, the record remains one of the defining pop punk albums of its generation.

Now, 25 years later, the album is back inside the UK Rock & Metal Top 5 following its anniversary re-release!
