Sum 41 Recording First New Album Since Deryck Whibley's Rehab
If you're not part of the rational, tasteful cohort who still play All Killer No Filler and Does This Look Infected? on a regular basis, this news might not be for you. For everyone else: Sum 41 are recording a new album, their first in four years, ostensibly a comeback record after Deryck Whibley's stint in rehab.
There's a PledgeMusic page for the still-untitled LP, one with pre-order deals giving access to behind-the-scenes content and choices of vinyl, CD or digital copies. The band's six full-length follows 2011's Screaming Bloody Murder.
"After being in this band for almost 20 years, I didn't know what else I had to say," Whibley says in the intro video. After his 2014 brush with death—his alcoholism was that severe—he's got his inspiration back. Check it out:
