ava010Are you Nimrods all pumped up for Valentine's Day this weekend? Need a last minute gift for your honey? Well rockers, Angels and Airwaves are releasing their third full-length album, "Love", on February 14th for free. That's right, F- R- E- E that spells FREE! 

Along with the free standard album a special deluxe edition will be available for you to purchase. A film will also make its way to theaters later on in the year. It all sounds very exciting in the AVA camp, Alternative Press Magazine caught up with front-man Tom Delonge to see what's going on and what it could all mean for Blink-182.

When talking bout the re-united Blink, Tom has laid out what's going on in the punkers' world. "Blink are in the process of scheduling how we are going to record the next record. We already started before the tour, the only issue we're having now is that Angels are having quite a lot of electricity being built, so we have kind of the release of our life, and with this film and everything, we're just trying to schedule how we're going to be able to be in the studio. That meeting was actually supposed to take place last week and then this week, but this week already came to a close, so it's hard because we're all so busy."

So while Delonge is busy with his side project, what could his two other band members be doing while he's away?

"Mark [Hoppus] is actually doing a remix for Angels & Airwaves that will be on the sellable version of "Love". We have a record that we're selling that has 30 minutes extra music on it, plus a remix from Mark. Travis [Barker] has got a million things going on as well, so we're focusing on that and this week kind of went out the window. But I'm gearing up for tour, so the goal is that we're going to be meeting once or twice a week up until when I leave, and then when I get back from tour, it'll open the window up to really dig into it."

But all in all, having two great bands has proved to be quite successful for Tom himself and of course, his adoring fans.

"We actually got a lot done quickly on the new Blink album because people were working simultaneously in different studios, so we're hoping it will go really quickly. I'm in a good spot, because I have two great bands. I know how people are with Blink. I know how big Blink are and I know the legacy with it and everything, but Angels & Airwaves, to my heart and to the people who like it, this is the release of my life."

"I'm really, really, really excited about the album release on Valentine's Day. One step at a time for me--it's hard for me to bounce back and forth, and right now my mind is all Angels and trying to figure out how to schedule the upcoming Blink recording, because that's coming quick, too."

Hope your V-Day is as rockin' as this awesome album will be Nimrods!

Before we go, we'll leave you with a new AVA song, "Hallucinations". Enjoy!
