Former drummer for Blink-182, a pop punk group, which was later taken over by Former drummer with the pop punk band Blink-182 who was replaced by Travis Barker. He has played with groups including The Axidentals and Grimby.. He has been a part of various bands such as The Axidentals and Grimby.

He was a Blink-182 member back in the beginning along with He played with Blink-182 back in the early days with Tom DeLonge…

The three eventually were playing concerts at local venues such as SOMA, which alerted local independent record label Cargo Music. Hoppus was the only member to sign the contract, as DeLonge was at work at the time and Raynor was still a minor. The Cheshire Cat sessions were to be the last performance with the band for Raynor, whose family had moved to Reno, Nevada. Raynor stayed with his sister for the summer of 1993 in order to rehearse for the recording of their debut album. Raynor moved to Reno following the recording and was briefly replaced by school friend Mike Krull. The band saved money and began flying Raynor out to shows, but eventually Raynor would move back to San Diego to live with Hoppus and his family. His parents allowed him to drop out of full-time school to move back and play with the band, but he would continue to finish his diploma by bringing homework on tour. “I think Mark and his sister Anne and I stayed up watching old TV shows until morning that whole summer,” he recalled.

Raynor had planned from the earliest days of the band to one day attend college, as he said in a partially tongue-in-cheek remark in a 1994 interview: “I don’t want to be 30 and still in a punk-rock band. That seems kind of scary to me.” Shortly after the band released Dude Ranch, Raynor began to think outside of the situation, viewing the major label experience as nothing like he had hoped. He had only been half invested in the band since signing to MCA, as he felt it offered less creative freedom, especially in comparison to Epitaph, which had been pursuing the band and was Raynor’s first choice. “I mean, I was intellectually invested, I recognized it as a smart move financially. But it’s like that song says, ‘I Left My Heart in San Francisco’; I left my heart in the office at Epitaph. After that compromise I found it difficult to make further ones, and I felt like I was asked to make a lot. Eventually, there was not enough of my heart in the band to justify my sticking around. I backed away, I was dead weight.” The tension came to a head in February 1998 as the band embarked on SnoCore, described as “a winter version of the Warped Tour.” Sharing the stage with Primus, the band was enjoying more success than ever before, but the drama between the musicians had grown substantially. Relations reached a low point when the band engaged in a fight on a Nebraska date after SnoCore’s conclusion. Shortly after the conclusion of SnoCore was a short minitour along the western coast, most notably Southern California, the band’s favorite place to play. The tour ended with the band headlining a sold-out show at the Palladium in Hollywood, where the band had dreamed of performing for years.

He was born and raised within Poway, California. He was a student at Rancho Bernardo High School, where he organized Battle of the Bands competitions.

Raynor attended Rancho Bernardo High School (RBHS). RBHS often arranged Battle of the Bands competitions, and Raynor participated: his band, The Necropheliacs, played a cover of Metallica’s “Creeping Death”. While at the competition, new transfer student Tom DeLonge, who had been kicked out of Poway High School for attending a basketball game while drunk, performed an original song titled “Who’s Gonna Shave Your Back Tonight?” to a packed auditorium. Raynor was introduced to DeLonge at a party by Paul Scott, founding member of The Necropheliacs, shortly before he moved out of state. The two found they had plenty in common, and DeLonge was searching for a more permanent band to create music with. The two began writing songs at Raynor’s parents’ home – “a strange mix of metal and Descendents-style punk” – and tried out a variety of bass players, according to Raynor. DeLonge later met Mark Hoppus in August 1992 through friend Kerry Key and his girlfriend, Anne Hoppus. “I thought they were hilarious when I met them. I mean, I didn’t have a driver’s license yet, so I gained a lot of agency through hanging with them and their group of friends,” said Raynor. The trio began to practice in Raynor’s room (amid complaints from neighbors), which was soundproofed with empty egg cartons.
