Blink 182 started out as a young what everyone called punk band in their early days. As they became popular they got a new drummer and grew out of their teen years and the music became more technical and geared more towards the overall rock genre than just the three chord progression of their punk rock background. The first song is Carousel from their first album Cheshire Cat.

The next song to hear the difference in Blink's sound is Adam's Song from the album Enema of the State where the band became very popular and their new drummer Travis Barker joined. You can also hear a wildly different production quality when comparing this song to Carousel.

Lastly I have an example from the groups last album together titled simply Blink 182. This song is titled Violence. This song has another style change where you can sense the band wants to get away from just doing the punk rock songs they were known for.
