THE OFFSPRING To Release New Album In 2018

09 October 2017

THE OFFSPRING is planning to release a new studio album in 2018.

Singer Dexter Holland and guitarist Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman spoke about the band's long-awaited follow-up to 2012's 'Days Go By' during an interview at last month's Rock In Rio festival in Brazil.

Asked if it's true that THE OFFSPRING will make new music available in the not-too-distant future, Dexter said (see video below): "It is true! We're working on it." Noodles added: "We have been, yeah, for a while. We've got a few songs already done. We wanna do a couple more, and we definitely wanna get something out soon. Our fans have waited long enough, I think, so we wanna get something in their hands that they can listen to and hold and put in their ears."

As for a possible release date for the next THE OFFSPRING record, Dexter said: "2018, for sure!"

THE OFFSPRING issued its ninth album, 'Days Gone By', five years ago. It spent 2014 on the road promoting the twentieth anniversary of its breakout album, 'Smash', by performing the disc in its entirety at a number of shows.
