The record proved very influential on the pop-punk genre. [103] With the release of the record, Blink-182 became celebrities and the biggest pop-punk act of the era. [52] The glossy production instantly set Blink-182 apart from the other crossover punk acts, such as Green Day. In 2011, The New York Times credited the record with "[taking] punk's already playful core and [giving] it a shiny, accessible polish," calling it "among the catchiest music of the time." [40] Matt Diehl, author of My So-Called Punk, writes that mainstream acolytes of their sound led to profound effects on the "pop punk" genre, such as the deracination of regional scene identity—due to its wide popularity, pop punk bands became commonplace outside the genre's origins. [99] Jon Blisten of Beats Per Minute writes that " Enema 's success perpetuated pop-punk's viability on mainstream radio, which is where Blink's progeny— bands like Fall Out Boy, Simple Plan, and New Found Glory— would receive a decent amount of airplay." [104] Rolling Stone 's Nicole Frehsée wrote that the album influenced emo fans, [105] while MTV News credited the album, alongside the Get Up Kids' Something to Write Home About (1999) as pioneering emo pop, calling them "some of the scene's most influential records."

I don’t think it has aged that badly. Some Pop-Punk albums from that time/later do sound quite f their time or insipid. Enema of the State still pops with life, wit and colour! In their review, this is what AllMusic had to say:Classifica annuale 2000 (dal 03.01.2000 al 31.12.2000)" (in Italian). Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana . Retrieved July 5, 2021. Recording completed in March 1999 and all parties involved were enormously proud of the record. "When it was done, we were so stoked. It was like a masterpiece for our band," remembered DeLonge. [28] "We knew this was going to be the best thing we ever did." [24] Hoppus felt the band achieved the purest, cleanest sound on the record that they had been striving for. Finn felt similarly, proud of his work on the record and believing in retrospect that the album would appeal to the masses. [28] As the album was recorded on analog tape, the trio put enormous trust into Finn to give the record the polished pop sound they wanted, recalled DeLonge in 2012. [19] "The Party Song" was the final song to be completed, and the three were mixing the song coincidentally when lead single "What's My Age Again?" premiered on Los Angeles-based radio station KROQ. [30] In 2013, Hoppus referred to Enema of the State as "the heart of Blink-182's musical sensibilities," singling out "its simplicity, its purity, its singularity of purpose between the three of us." [31] According to Barker, the album's title stemmed from DeLonge, who was worried about his diet at the time and using enemas. [32] It could also be a reference to the 1998 film Enemy of The State, which came out a year before the album.
