Sum 41 have announced that they will release a new album, Order in Decline, on July 19th via Hopeless Records. They’ve also unleashed the first single, “Out for Blood” (watch the video below).
Order in Decline is the follow-up to 2016’s 13 Voices, which marked a comeback of sorts for the Canadian punk-rock band after frontman Deryck Whibley was hospitalized for severe alcoholism in 2014. That album also marked the return of guitarist Dave Baksh, after he had left the band in 2006.
The new album features lyrics that reflect the social and political turmoil in the United States and Canada over the past few years, with Whibley explaining in a press release, “The last thing I wanted to do was write a social or political protest record, and Order In Decline is not that. It’s also very hard not to have feelings about everything that’s going on in the world.”
Sum 41 will embark on a US tour that includes headlining shows and a run of dates on the inaugural Rockstar Energy Drink Disrupt touring festival. See the full list of dates below, and pick up tickets here.
Pre-orders for the new album are available here.
