Sublime Working With Travis Barker for First New Album Since 1996

Almost three decades since Sublime disbanded following the death of Bradley Nowell, his son Jakob is leading the group into the studio for a new LP.

Following live performances at the likes of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2024, the group have now told Rolling Stone the reformation is set to feature a new record. The 29-year-old explained that he had recently spent a week working with Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and producer John Feldmann penning tracks for the new album. Cynical fans who might be expecting the album to be a poor imitation of what was once was have also had their fears assuaged somewhat, with Nowell specifically noting that the plan isn’t to create a modern, updated version of the band.
