Box Car Racer was an American alternative rock band from San Diego, California, formed in 2001. The band is essentially a side-project of guitarist Tom DeLonge of Blink-182, composed of lead guitarist David Kennedy of Hazen Street, touring bassist Anthony Celestino, and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker. Driven by a darker and more mature sound than previous Blink-182 recordings, DeLonge was the primary lyricist of the group and created the group to experiment with ideas that were not "Blink-friendly".
