Good Charlotte Announce First Album in Seven Years, ‘Motel Du Cap’


The pop-punk band’s eighth studio LP arrives Aug. 8 and follows their 2018 release 'Generation Rx.'

The pop-punk icons announced Monday (June 16) that their eighth studio album, Motel Du Cap, is due out Aug. 8, marking their first full-length release in seven years. Motel Du Cap is set to follow 2018’s Generation Rx, the band’s seventh studio album, which arrived two years after their 2016 comeback record Youth Authority. Hints of a new era began to emerge earlier this year when Good Charlotte posted a nostalgic teaser video featuring archival footage of the band and the caption “GC 2025.” Since then, they’ve announced several major festival appearances — including Ocean’s Calling and Aftershock — and last month played Welcome to Rockville, marking their first live performance since 2023.
