Chuck discusses Simple Plan’s new album’s possible release in spring 2020 in new interview

In a brand new interview for Colombian W Radio, Chuck Comeau from Simple Plan talked about why it took the band over three years to release new music and also quickly discussed the band’s next studio effort.

According to Chuck, Simple Plan’s 6th album, which the band has been recording in the studio in the summer and also in the past few weeks, will likely not be released until spring 2020. As of right now, of course, the band doesn’t have an exact release date.

Read what Chuck said in the interview regarding his band’s new music below:

“We tend to look at albums as something that is very meaningful and we’re getting very close to being ready to release new music. We just put out a new song about 10 days or 2 weeks ago maybe called ‘Where I Belong’ with our friends from State Champs and We The Kings. And so that’s our the first new music in 3 years, so it’s kind of a bridge release until the next record to sort of get our fans to be excited and also to keep them waiting and give them something special that they can enjoy until we have new album ready. Next spring is probably when the next record’s gonna come out.

LISTEN: Simple Plan & State Champs: Where I Belong feat. We The Kings (+ lyrics)

At midnight all across the world, Simple Plan, State Champs and We The Kings released a collaborative song called ‘Where I Belong’. The sound of this new pop-punk track brings us vibes of Simple Plan more hard-hitting side – especially the one we can find on similar songs such as Opinion Overload. It was written as a collaborative project between Andrew Goldstein, Chuck Comeau, Pierre Bouvier, Derek DiScanio (State Champs) and Zachary Joseph.

As we’re mentioned previously, this is a collaborative song, and as such it features many interesting surprises. Obviously we can find all members of Simple Plan doind their usual jobs, but besides them, there’s some other additional musicians putting a little bit of their own talent to the song. The gang vocals for instance, beside Pierre, Seb and David also include Andrew Goldstein (singer, songwriter, producer – who also co-wrote the song), Chady Awad (Simple Plan’s photographer & videographer) and Zakk Cervini (producer and mixer of the song). Beside’s Pierre’s vocals, we can also clearly hear Derek DiScanio’s (State Champs’ lead singer) voice on half the track and Travis Clark (We The Kings’ lead singer) also lent his voice to the song. And finally, besides Chuck’s drum tracks, the song also features some additional drums by Ilan Rubin, the drummer for Nine Inch Nails and Angels & Airwaves.

Check out the song and its lyrics below and make sure to let us know in the comments what you think!

Simple Plan & State Champs – Where I Belong (feat. We The Kings)

I’m looking in the rearview mirror
Everything looks the same
There’s nothing but broken streetlights
And I’m just trying to escape
I’m waiting on a distant feeling
I’m waiting for things to chance
It’s getting hard to ride on empty
But maybe I’m not so far away
‘Cause it feels like home

I found a reason
And suddenly I’m not so alone
I’m finally breathing
Like I never could on my own
Start the countdown, let’s get it on
Scream our lungs out to our favorite song
‘Cause this is where I belong
(This is where I belong)

I can tell you just don’t get it
And that you’ll never understand
I’m sorry that I can’t be perfect
But I’m not changing who I am
Maybe there’s no destination
Maybe I’m gonna make mistakes
Let you in on one of my secrets
I’m still just as lost as yesterday
But it feels like home

I found a reason
And suddenly I’m not so alone
I’m finally breathing
Like I never could on my own
Start the countdown, let’s get it on
Scream our lungs out to our favorite song
‘Cause this is where I belong

Look past the warning signs
The same ones that told me
“Yeah, you can’t turn back and run
Play it safe before you come undone”

If you saw through my eyes
This view is worth it
Can’t believe me when I say
There’s no place in this world I’d rather be

I found a reason
And suddenly I’m not so alone
I’m finally breathing
Like I never could on my own
Start the countdown, let’s get it on
Scream our lungs out to our favorite song
‘Cause this is where I belong

I found a reason (I found a reason)
And suddenly I’m not so alone
I’m finally breathing (I’m finally breathing)
Like I never could on my own
Start the countdown, let’s get it on
Scream our lungs out to our favorite song (favorite song)
‘Cause this is where I belong
(‘Cause this is where I belong)
‘Cause this is where I belong

Simple Plan to release a new song ‘Where I Belong’ feat. State Champs and We The Kings!

It’s here!

After all the teasing today and yesterday, Simple Plan have officially revealed that they will be releasing a brand new collaborative song with their friends from State Champs and We The Kings, who they are coincidentally going on tour with this fall. The song will be called ‘Where I Belong’ and should be released tonight local time.

Simple Plan have now also officially renamed their tour with State Champs and We The Kings the ‘Where I Belong Tour 2019’.

Stay tuned for more details.

VIDEO: Simple Plan’s new sketch reveals new music to be released today at midnight!

Yesterday, Simple Plan teased their entire fandom by a print screen of a fan comment, predicting that the band would be releasing some new music ahead of their co-headlining tour with State Champs – that means this month. Of course, many fans have been cautious about Simple Plan’s “soon”, but believe it or not, things are actually happening TONIGHT!

In a brand new sketch video, released today on Simple Plan’s social media channels, Danny Vance, Simple Plan’s tour manager can be seen walking up to all members of the band, trying to convince them to help him announce something big. Eventually the band does so… but not entirely. The only information we know is that SOMETHING is being released tonight at midnight between Thursday, October 11th and Friday October 12th. As far as time zones goes, it is unknown, but we’re betting on EST.

Check out the video teaser for the announcement below:

“We’ve got something big happening tonight and we can’t wait for you to find out what it is! But I guess you’re gonna have to wait just a little longer… unless State Champs fills you in?? 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤣🤣🤣 #Soon #VerySoon”

UPDATE:

State Champs replied to Simple Plan’s suggestion with the following video – making We The Kings help with the announcement instead. Watch State Champ’s reply here.

Travis from We The Kings later on replied with his own video:

Simple Plan tease releasing new song this month!

With their co-headlining tour with State Champs coming up in just a few weeks (starting October 29th to be precise), Simple Plan are slowly getting ready to hit the road again. And what better way to hype up the upcoming album our favorite Canadians have been working on for the past year, than by releasing some new music just in time for the tour to kick off?

Yeah, that’s right. Yesterday, Simple Plan took to all of their social media accounts – Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and posted a picture of a certain comment one fan has recently made on their socials:

“I’m calling it now: they’re gonna release a new song right before their fall tour.”

– Mack Jackson –

And given by how much Simple Plan have been hyping up this particular comment since yesterday, looks like Mack truly called it. Some reports right now even say that the song might actually be released this Friday, October 11th, already!

Hold on to your hats, Simple Plan fans, the new era of album no.6 is about to begin! Are you ready?
