Editing Scott Raynor (section)

===Later work===
Raynor has kept a low profile since exiting Blink-182; he has taken part in few interviews, aside from a 2004 [[AbsolutePunk]] piece<ref name="ap2004"/> and portions for Joe Shooman's unauthorized 2010 biography of the band, ''Blink-182: The Bands, The Breakdown & The Return''.
 
In his immediate years after leaving the group, Raynor kept himself busy with various musical projects, including a band called The Axidentals. Raynor played guitar for the group, which recorded an extended play and a full-length that was left unreleased when [[Vagrant Records]] showed interest in signing the band.<ref name=shooman80>Shooman, 2010. pp. 80-81</ref> By the time the deal went through, Raynor was having disputes with the group and quit; the band later released their debut album as ''Death on Wednesday'' through Vagrant in 2000. Raynor later went on to perform with the group Grimby from 2000 to 2001,<ref name="Quihuiz 2023 u107">{{cite web | last=Quihuiz | first=Ariana | title=The Members of Blink-182: Where Are They Now? | website=Peoplemag | date=April 18, 2023 | url=https://people.com/music/blink-182-members-where-are-they-now/ | access-date=April 24, 2024}}</ref> which recorded an extended play at Doubletime Studios. Recorded live over the course of a day, Raynor has described it as dark comedy, "a [[Black Sabbath]], [[Ramones]], and [["Weird Al" Yankovic]] milkshake."<ref name="shooman114"/> Raynor fulfilled a long-held ambition to work with [[Nirvana (band)|Nirvana]] producer [[Jack Endino]] on an extended play recorded with The Spazms in 2004. "The language of the whole record really speaks for me. It's deskilled, nihilistic, and posits, by default not intention, a Franco-feminism", he said.{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}

In the 2000s, he began contributing to a charity called [[StandUp for Kids]], an outreach organization that helped street and homeless youth. He also taught music to teens in trouble with the law under the ''Street of Dreams'' program.<ref name="shooman80"/> In 2003, a rumor circulated on the Internet that Raynor had been shot dead; he addressed the hoax via a letter he e-mailed to the sites in question, that instead directed the attention to the StandUp for Kids organization.<ref name=shooman114>Shooman, 2010. pp. 114-115</ref> He continued to play music; in 2017, Raynor joined the Los Angeles post-punk band The Wraith,<ref name="Quihuiz 2023 u107"/> with whom he released the extended play ''Shadow Flag''. He left the band some time after, but re-joined in 2019.<ref name="Kerrang! 2019 w179">{{cite web | title=The Wraith: What It's Like Being An LA Punk Band In 2019 | website=Kerrang! | date=November 25, 2019 | url=https://www.kerrang.com/what-its-like-being-an-la-punk-band-in-2019 | access-date=April 24, 2024}}</ref> Raynor appears in the music video for the song "Wing of Night", although he didn't take part in the writing process.<ref name="YouTube 2024 d837">{{cite web | title=WING OF NIGHT (OFFICIAL VIDEO) | website=YouTube | date=March 6, 2024 | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9lfLmTCwBw | access-date=April 24, 2024}}</ref> In January 2020, Raynor left The Wraith again; the band continued with a new drummer.<ref>{{cite web |date=28 January 2020 |title=We're excited to announce Anatolii Lövochkin, formerly of Russian punk legends @purgen_official , as our new drummer.
