Tons of my friends garage bands come to mine as being totally influenced by blink 182. This new wave of pop rock bands was influenced by greenday/blink 182. Im sick of this classic rock eltism people need to realize that just because a band is new doesn't mean it can be equally infuencial (whether they influenced good or bad bands). Blink 182 are just as influencial. I will list bands if you want me too.
