Sublime have announced the details of a new full-length album, their first since 1996 and first with Jakob Nowell on vocals.

‘Until The Sun Explodes’ will be released on June 12 via Atlantic Records, and serves as the follow-up to their 1996 Self-Titled record. It’s the first body of work to feature Jakob Nowell on vocals, son of original vocalist, the late Bradley Nowell.

The collection of songs serves as a tribute to his memory and incredible lasting legacy, as well as a statement of intent as they look to the future, further embodied in the newly released, beautifully sentimental title track. A bright and breezy piece of classic sun-stained Sublime goodness, it’s an honest and heartfelt return to the limelight for the band, being thankful for the past and grateful for the future.

Jakob had this to say about the release, explaining, “The last Sublime record that will ever be made is Self-Titled. There’s no replacing history, period. Until the Sun Explodes, the album is an epilogue, and ‘Until the Sun Explodes’, the single, is the epilogue to the epilogue. It is a tribute to the expansive works of Sublime, it is an acknowledgment for all that my father has done for me my entire life, and most importantly it is a thank you. I love you dad, and I owe you my life.”

Whilst bassist Eric Wilson added, “This song is the title track of our new album, and it expresses the gratitude we all feel as well as our intent for the future of our band and the music we love! Until the Sun Explodes is our reality. Thank you for enjoying life with us!”
