After promising new material by Christmas, Blink-182 have picked a release date: their new EP, Dogs Eating Dogs, is due December 18th. The EP, their first since splitting with Interscope in October, will be available in three different bundles: "Santa's Lap Package," with a special print, shirt, holiday wrapping paper and card; "Nice Package," with a special fleece, holiday wrapping paper and card; and "Naughty Package," with a special shirt and card. Preorders are available now through Blink-182's website.

"This EP is a hundred times better than Neighborhoods, because we're all in a room together," drummer Travis Barker told Rolling Stone earlier this month. "The rule is there's no rules."

“(We're Not) The Jet Set”

George Jones and Tammy Wynette | 1973

George Jones and Tammy Wynette were still married when they recorded the tongue-in-cheek "(We're Not) The Jet Set." The lyrics, written by Nashville songwriter Bobby Braddock, who also penned Wynette's "D-I-V-O-R-C-E" and Jones' "He Stopped Loving Her Today," make fun of the good life by declaring, "We're not the Jet Set/We're the old Chevrolet set." Braddock recalled that while writing the song, he needed the name of a city that evened out the rhyme he had with "Riviera" and "Missourah." “I got out a Rand McNally atlas," he said. "In the first part are the maps. The last part is an alphabetical listing of cities. I wanted a rustic, small-time sound. I went to the listing for Missouri. And I found 'Festus.' I loved the sound of it."
