Blink 182: Behind the New Video For ‘Home is Such a Lonely Place’

Mark Hoppus & Director, Jason Goldwatch share the meaning behind the video

After delivering one of the most anticipated albums of 2016, Blink 182 is back with a new video for their song, “Home is Such a Lonely Place”, directed by Jason Goldwatch. The video is out now, with three additional solo videos of each member to follow in the next week (June 14th, 15th, and 16th).

Mark Hoppus:

“The video for “Home is Such a Lonely Place” was probably the easiest we’ve ever filmed. All we had to do was be ourselves at home with our family and friends, as we prepared to leave for tour. Consequently, it’s also our most personal and honest video, and one of my favorites.”

Jason Goldwatch:

“My idea was to find the intimacy and honesty that was written into the fabric of the song. Blink videos raised me, and there was always a fascinating self-aware wink that held an understated genius inside of their visuals, and inside of all of their work. Shooting this on a Super 8mm captures the raw side of them, a way we haven’t seen them before.”

The music video was produced by DECON.
