In an October 2016 interview with Alaska Dispatch News, Noodles stated that the band was "planning on getting in the studio soon" to record the album, planned for release in 2017. In the same interview, Noodles hoped the album would be finished by the end of 2016. However, in an August 2016 interview with EMP LIVE TV, Noodles said they had five or six songs done and they would release one or two songs soon. In a November 2015 interview Noodles said that he hoped the album would be released in 2016. A month later, Noodles posted a picture of himself, Holland, Parada and Bob Rock in the studio on his Instagram page, which indicated that they were recording their tenth studio album. īy September 2015, the Offspring were still in the studio and had finished 2-3 tracks. Noodles had stated, however, that "Coming for You" would appear on the album. The band released their first song in over two years, " Coming for You", on Januat the time of its release, it was unclear if "Coming for You" would be released as a one-off single or would appear on the band's upcoming tenth studio album, but a tweet from frontman Dexter Holland heavily implied it was in an unfinished state. Within the next few years, the album's progress was slowed down by grueling tour schedules and the end of their contract with Columbia Records, the label that the Offspring had been on since 1996. The Offspring entered the studio in August 2013 to begin tracking new material, with producer Bob Rock at the helm. Vocalist Dexter Holland stated in a May 2013 interview that he had written a "punk" song about "the government keeping you down." Noodles had then hoped that the band would enter the studio in 2014 to begin recording their album. Plans for a tenth studio album were first mentioned about six months after the release of Days Go By by Offspring guitarist Noodles, who stated that they would "sit down and take a look at a new record" after the completion of the Days Go By tour. However, due to the aforementioned issues, other inner disputes and the COVID-19 pandemic, the album's release was pushed back to 2021. The band started recording new material for the album with Rock as early as the summer of 2013, and after re-recording it at various studios and at various periods between 20, it had been completed by 2019 and was ready for release later that year. The band's tour schedules, lineup changes, legal issues and the search for a new label after their split with Columbia Records, who released the Offspring's previous six albums, contributed to a years-long delay behind Let the Bad Times Roll. This album also marked the last for drummer Pete Parada who was fired from the band in August 2021 due to refusing to vaccinate against COVID-19. Let the Bad Times Roll also marks the band's first album without bassist and co-founding member Greg K., who was fired from The Offspring in 2018 amid business disputes in addition to guitar and vocals, Dexter Holland played bass on the album. Produced by Bob Rock, it is the band's first release on Concord Records, and their first studio album in almost nine years since Days Go By (2012), marking the longest gap between two Offspring studio albums. Let the Bad Times Roll is the tenth studio album by American rock band the Offspring, released on April 16, 2021.
