During an interview with WRIF’s Meltdown, The Offspring guitarist Noodles offered an update on the band’s new album. He said the following:

“This record is taking us a long time, but I think it’s gonna be well worth the wait. We’ve been in the studio working a lot recently with Bob [Rock] and finishing it up. We’ve got about 10 songs done, a couple of more that just need lyrics. And then we may do one or two more and it’s gonna be a done deal.”

He also added the following when asked when fans can expect to hear it:

“This fall. Definitely this year, hopefully fall. We were hoping for summer, but it looks like fall now.”
