The Ocean have confirmed that they are currently finishing up the recording process for their new album. The effort is expected to be released later this year.
Guitarist Robin Staps commented:
“Happy new year, friends.
2025 was a transitional year, but a very important one for The Ocean. A year ago, I had a hard time imagining this next chapter without my former band mates Paul, Loïc and David. I was determined to push the pause button myself and focus on other projects, like everybody else. But as old things fell apart, new things fell into place… almost effortlessly and much quicker than I could have hoped for.
After a year of reflecting, rebuilding and reshaping, it feels very much like everything is in the right place. The Ocean Collective is ready for the next chapter: we are in the process of finishing recordings for an hour of new music. Our 12th studio album will be released in the 2nd half of 2026. And I am as excited about this as a 46 years old kid waiting to play his first gig ever.
Thank you all for still being here and following us through a rather quiet phase. We will treat you with something nice in a little while. Until then, we wish you a splendid new year. Stay warm and healthy, everything else is less important.”
Van Halen drummer Alex Van Halen has confirmed that he is working on a new album with Toto guitarist Steve Lukather. He told Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden) the following about that during an appearance on the “Metal Sticks” podcast:
“I’m getting ready to do this record with Lukather and a couple of other people. It should be exciting.”

During a Q&A session conducted at the 2025 Steel City Con in Monroeville, PA, Geezer Butler (Black Sabbath) confirmed that he is working on a new solo album. He also revealed that he is “using an A.I. singer” on the material.
Butler said the following:
“Oh, gosh. I’ve got tons of stuff. Since we finished the last Sabbath show [at ‘Back To The Beginning’ in July 2025], I’ve just been going through all the stuff that I’ve written since the ’80s onwards and updating everything.
And what held me back before, I didn’t have a singer when I’m at home, but A.I. [artificial intelligence] came along. [Laughs] So all my songs now, I’ve updated them all and I’m using an A.I. singer to bring all the lyrics out. So now I can take it to singers that I’m gonna be working with and go, ‘This is what I want on the album,’ so they’ve got a better idea.
Before I was just, like, playing them a bass riff or something, going, ‘Can you sing to this?’ And they’d be going, ‘Yeah.’ [Laughs] But it’s so much better now, ’cause you can sit in your studio and do everything on A.I. and then take it to proper musicians and let them take over. It’s really helped me. A lot of people think it’s cheating.”
