In a new interview with Billboard, The Offspring commented on plans for their next full length and follow up to last year's Rise And Fall, Rage And Grace.

The band has already planned to record with Bob Rock again, and note:

[Vocalist Dexter Holland and Bob] kinda went over a couple of things that were left off the last record," he reports, "and songs that were even left off 'Splinter' or maybe even 'Conspiracy of One' and kind of looked at some things with free eyes and see if there was anything there that can be worked on.

The band would "like to have a new record out next year for sure" but isn't likely to hit the studio until January, after it finishes the current touring cycle. The next album will mark the recorded debut of drummer Pete Parada, formerly of Face to Face and Saves The Day.
