The Offspring have confirmed they will release a new album later this year.

The punk rock veteran’s last album was 2012’s ‘Days Go By‘. They have teased a follow-up for the past nine years, but have only just revealed the album is finished.

In a short video posted today (February 8) frontman Bryan “Dexter” Holland and guitarist Kevin “Noodles” Wasserman are heard discussing the album.Ā ā€‹ā€œWeā€™re putting out a record. Itā€™s finished, itā€™s done, itā€™s in the can as they say. Weā€™ve got songs, weā€™ve got titles, weā€™ve got a label, weā€™ve got an album title, weā€™ve got a cover, weā€™ve got artwork and stuff. Itā€™s ready to go. Weā€™re putting this out.”

There is no news of when exactly fans can expect the album (ā€œweā€™re going to talk about all that stuff when the label lets usā€) but it is promised for 2021.

In 2019, Dexter spoke to Kerrang! about the band’s long-awaited record. ā€‹ā€œIt sounds like our old shit! Thatā€™s what Iā€™m supposed to say, right?!ā€ he said. ā€‹

ā€œI donā€™t really know how to describe it. I guess itā€™s punk rock, but then we throw in a couple of songs that arenā€™t what youā€™d normally predict. We have a lot of really fast stuff on there, plus a couple of things that you might not really expect from us. But Iā€™m really really happy with it. Itā€™s not completely finished, but it is 98 per cent finished. So weā€™re trying to put together a plan to release it.”







The band haven’t been completely quiet, however. Last December, they shared a cover of Darlene Love’s 1963 classic ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)’.
