Claim: Blink-182 released an album.

Enema of the State is the third studio album by American rock band Blink-182 . Produced by Jerry Finn , the album was released on June 1 , 1999 by MCA Records . After a long series of performances at various clubs and festivals and several indie recordings throughout the 1990s , Blink-182 first achieved popularity on the Warped Tour and in Australia following the release of their sophomore effort Dude Ranch -LRB- 1997 -RRB- and its rock radio hit `` Dammit '' . To record their third album , Blink-182 turned to veteran punk rock producer Jerry Finn , who previously worked on Green Day 's breakthrough album , Dookie -LRB- 1994 -RRB- . Enema was the band 's first album to feature second drummer Travis Barker , who replaced original drummer Scott Raynor .   The group recorded with Finn over a period of three months at numerous locations in their hometown of San Diego and in Los Angeles . Finn was key in producing the fast-paced , melodic mixes , creating pop punk with a more radio-friendly , accessible polish . Lyrically , the album is inspired by adolescent frustration and relationships . Guitarist Tom DeLonge and bassist Mark Hoppus primarily culled stories from friends and autobiographical situations to craft summery tracks revolving around breakups , suburban parties and maturity , as well as more offbeat subject matter such as UFO conspiracy theories . The cover artwork for Enema of the State features porn star Janine Lindemulder famously clad in a nurse uniform , and the title is a pun on the term enemy of the state .   Enema of the State was an enormous commercial success . The album sold over 15 million copies worldwide , catapulting the band to become one of the biggest rock bands of the turn of the century . `` What 's My Age Again ? '' , `` All the Small Things '' and `` Adam 's Song '' became hit singles and MTV staples , generating heavy radio airplay . Enema of the State had an extensive impact on contemporary pop punk , reinventing it for a new generation and spawning countless tributes and acolytes .
