ACCESSPASS UPDATE 01 JUNE, 2016

It's Official!
The new album will be coming out in the fall of this year. As we have more specific info, we’ll be sharing it with you, FIRST!

Things are certainly happening, this is quite a joke of an update though..

[Jeremy Kill]

Great news, now we can look forward to something this year!

Also, the album should be pretty much done. Found this on Tom Lord Alge's website:

Most recently, Tom completed mixing the forthcoming album for the triumphant return of platinum punk rock band Sum 41.

Amazing!!!! Where did you find these photos?

They probably told their domain provider that they'll pay their bill "soon" and they got fed up and closed down the site

[SBMurder]

From their latest Facebook post we have been upgraded from getting news "soon" to getting news "shortly" for their new album

[fergal41]

There is a 'leak' of the album (accompanied by that unconfirmed artwork and tracklisting) on some dodgy looking website, which I assume is fake.

Either way with all this info coming down the pipe - real or not - I think we will be hearing the single sooner rather than later. Can't wait!

[Ashasx]

The band just confirmed it on Twitter. Looks like the leak was legit.

The album will be called 13 Voices.

From their Facebook:

I am really excited to be releasing an album after everything I've been through recently. This new music represents the journey I've been on throughout the process of making this record. I had to fall in order to rise, and nothing feels better than to have something you love that you had to really fight for. I can honestly say that #13Voices saved my life and I cannot wait to share it with all of you. - Deryck

Track Listing:
1. A Murder of Crows (You're All Dead To Me)
2. Goddamn I'm Dead Again
3. Fake My Own Death
4. Breaking The Chain
5. There Will Be Blood
6. 13 Voices
7. War
8. God Save Us All (Death to POP)
9. The Fall And The Rise
10. Twisted By Design

Release date for the new album: OCTOBER 7th Source: Hopeless Records instagram

[Ashasx]

The song titles are pretty awesome.

[Mike]

Since the website that leaked the album cover was correct about it, then I'm sure the information about "fake my own death" being released by end of June is correct too. Nice.

[Andros]

I hope we get one or two songs more before October 7th.

[Gregorovich]

So that might just be the ugliest album artwork I think I've ever seen. And the song titles are extremely uninventive too. Can't give up all hope until we see track times though.

I agree, the artwork is underwhelming. It's very similar to the logo they used on tour at one point. It is, however, a nice little throwback to the old days. Kind of fitting seeing as how Brownsound is back in the band.

I've seen some comments on Instagram that some people were disappointed with the 10-track total for the album. I'd personally love 14 or 15 tracks, but as long as every song is good then that's what counts.

[Iam The Ghost]

I really can't stand traditional images like roses and in this case skulls, they just bore me to death...
But, I actually really like these dark red and black colours and 13 Voices sounds a cool name, so all in all I like this design.
Yeah, 10 tracks seems a little bit disappointing... but if they all great in some ways then I'm okay with it and I don't want to complain about everything. And maybe there'll be some bonus tracks.

[X^2]

I'm not at all disappointed with 10 tracks! 14-15 is usually overkill and the album starts to drag, and the filler songs are more apparent. better keep it all killer!

[samueeL]

Awesome news, release so soon too!

I think the album art really fits the song titles, seems like a dark record. And little throwback to the old days also yeah :) 10 songs sounds like a good amount if they're all golden.

Excited for news about single, must be very close!

That's even worse. So they ripped the design off an old t-shirt, stuck a really old and jarring logo over it and slapped a shitty filter on there. I get the feeling this was designed by the same person who runs the Facebook page.

Re: the 10-track thing, I'm assuming some of the pieces will be more extended a la SBM to make up the running time, otherwise we're talking 30-35 minutes which is really very short for a record nowadays.

[SBMurder]

aren't most of their album covers just pictures of eachother? like HHOP or UH or AKNF or DTLI? i mean I dont think they put much focus into an album cover for the most part
