Sum 41 Signs to Hopeless Records and Announce New Album
It has been 20 years since Sum 41 started their band. To celebrate, the band has announced that they’ve signed onto Los Angeles’ Hopeless Records and will soon release a new album. Their last album, 2011’s Screaming Bloody Murder had a Grammy Nominated song “Blood In My Eyes”. The new album was written, engineered, and produced by vocalist and rhythm guitarist Deryck Whibley.
Whibley commented about the signing, saying:
“It’s crazy to think that we started this band 20 years ago and so much has happened, and it all happened really fast. When I look back at everything it still feels like it’s all so recent. I think this a good thing because it still feels like there is still so much to do…which is why I am excited for a new album and to be releasing it with Hopeless Records”.
There has yet to be any news on the name of this upcoming album.
Sum 41 has a busy summer touring across the United States with Vans Warped Tour and participating in other music festivals including the Amnesia Rockfest in Montebello, Quebec. Tickets for the Warped Tour are on sale now and can be purchased here if you want to see Sum 41 live this Summer. Tickets to Rockfest are available here.
