Band Reveals First Album in Three Decades, Introducing New Frontman

Sublime has revealed their upcoming album, *Until The Sun Explodes*, set to be released on June 12 through Atlantic Records. This album marks not only the band’s first new album in 30 years but also the debut of new lead singer Jakob Nowell, alongside original members Eric Wilson on bass and Bud Gaugh on drums.

After the tragic death of original frontman Bradley Nowell in 1996, just before the release of the band’s self-titled album, Sublime faced an uncertain future. However, with Jakob Nowell now at the forefront, the band has come together once again to create new music, bringing their unique sound back to life.

Recorded in a studio in the San Pedro area, *Until The Sun Explodes* features collaborations with various artists, including Zac Carper from FIDLAR and Fletcher Dragge from Pennywise. Jakob Nowell, with his distinctive vision, worked closely with Wilson and Gaugh to infuse the album with the signature style and essence of Sublime, showcasing their cohesive musical chemistry.

Jakob Nowell described the album as an “epilogue” to Sublime’s storied history, paying homage to the band’s expansive body of work and honoring the legacy of his late father. This new album represents the first fresh material from the band since 1996, serving as a testament to their enduring musical influence and continued relevance in the industry.

As Sublime prepares to embark on a series of tour dates, including a multi-night performance at Red Rocks and their UK debut at Slam Dunk Festival, fans can anticipate an exciting return of the band to the stage. With festival appearances planned throughout the summer of 2026, Sublime is poised to captivate audiences with their iconic sound and dynamic performances once again.

In summary, *Until The Sun Explodes* signifies a significant milestone in Sublime’s musical journey, showcasing the band’s evolution and resilience over the past three decades. With Jakob Nowell carrying on the torch of his father’s legacy and original members Wilson and Gaugh bringing their collective talents to the forefront, this album promises to be a poignant reminder of Sublime’s enduring impact on the music scene.
