Tom DeLonge is calling from his cellphone. He’s in the car and on his way to the airport to embark on yet another Blink-182 tour. He’s just finished recording the fourth Angels & Airwaves album — Love: Part Two — and back in August the group put out Angels & Airwaves Presents Love Live, a film five years in the making. Beyond all of that, he is CEO of his own business and has developed software that not only runs all of the Angels & Airwaves website content but has now been adopted by Pearl Jam and the White Stripes. Oh, and don’t forget Neighborhoods, the first Blink-182 release to be recorded since the self-titled album back in 2003.

He is a man who wears many hats and though the pressure must be mighty, he obviously digs the energy. His writing and contributions to Neighborhoods has infused the trio with a sense of progressiveness only hinted at on earlier albums and the regal scope of his songwriting on Love: Part Two — triumphant songs that loop and soar in dizzying melodic crescendos — makes the fourth Angels & Airwaves album a cinematic orgy for the ears.

When we start our conversation, I mention how cool the new album is and Tom asks, "Which one? The blink album or the Angels record?" And that tells you everything you need to know.

On Wednesday, November 9, at 8 p.m. EST, Altpress.com will be presenting an exclusive Angels And Airwaves video special. Frontman Tom DeLonge and bassist/keyboardist Matt Wachter will be chatting about AVA’s new album, LOVE Part Two, the “Anxiety” music video and the long-awaited 2011 film, Love.

LOS ANGELES, CA (OCTOBER 25, 2011) – Last year, Angels & Airwaves (AVA) gave away nearly one million downloads of their album LOVE Part One. This summer, more than 460 U.S. movie theaters broadcast the one-night-only Angels & Airwaves Presents LOVE Live event. Now, AVA is poised to release LOVE Part Two (To The Stars Records), just as the band welcomes new member Ilan Rubin into the fold.

On Monday, October 31st, LOVE Part Two’s second single, “Surrender,” will be world premiered on KROQ/LA’s “Kevin & Bean” show and will also be made available as iTunes’ free “Single of the Week.” Additionally, iTunes will exclusively offer the full LOVE Part Two album for one week beginning November 1. Concurrently on iTunes, fans will also be able to purchase last year’s LOVE Part One album, as well as the thought-provoking movie LOVE that Variety praised as “an impressive show of imagination and design.” LOVE Part One, Part Two and LOVE (the movie) will be available at retail outlets on November 8th through Rocket Science/RED, while AVAshop.com will unveil three special packages.

23-year-old drummer/keyboardist Ilan Rubin was most recently the tour drummer for Nine Inch Nails and has also toured and recorded with Lostprophets. Additionally, Rubin is proficient on guitar, bass and piano, and has released two albums under the moniker The New Regime, on which he wrote all the material and played all the instruments.

On November 8th, AVA will make LOVE Part Two available in a variety of packages: a standard version that contains both LOVE Part One and LOVE Part Two albums; and a deluxe version with both LOVE albums plus the 85-minute LOVE movie on DVD. AVAshop.com will offer a “black edition” that upgrades the deluxe version with a 128-page comic book based on the movie; a “gold edition” which also adds a limited-edition t-shirt; and a “platinum edition” (limited to 25) that contains a signed, customized Epiphone guitar similar to the one frontman Tom DeLonge uses.

AVA includes vocalist/guitarist DeLonge, guitarist David Kennedy, bassist/keyboardist Matt Wachter and Rubin. The band has released three studio albums: 2006’s gold-certified We Don’t Need to Whisper; 2007’s I-Empire, which rocketed into the Top 10 of Billboard’s Top 200; and 2010’s LOVE. To date, AVA has sold more than two million albums worldwide.
